Topic: Command Decision

	COMMAND DYSFUNCTION:
		Decision makers who form an initial but perhaps incorrect impression in the midst of high ambiguity usually need more pieces of unambiguous data to recognize that their initial "picture" is not correct.
		Decisions and accompanying data are also slowed by neutralizing or destroying the communication links that connect the commander to the subordinates who carry out his will.
		The German command was not only uncertain of the direction and aim of Allied armor, it was slow to react due to their inability to observe Allied moves, decide, and execute a countering move.

	Integrated Decision Systems: Command
		A decision cycle is the amount of time an entity takes to make a decision based upon the scope of its responsibilities, its current physical and physiological state, and the quantity and quality of information it receives.
		An entity's decision cycle also tends to be influenced by its state, with healthy, calm entities reacting faster than entities that have received battle damage and are approaching the limit of their psychological endurance.
		The end state of IDS is not to replace human decision makers but rather to create a seamless transition from concept to execution for a commander's course of action.

	Command Decision (1948) (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-29)
		Kane, Walter Pigeon, is very upset with his actions and is about to relive him of his duties as combat-wing commander; since Gen. Dennis launched his assault on Germany he lost some 70 bombers in two days compared to the loss of under 20 bombers lost by the RAF during the same period.
		The general took his dismissal with the same courage as his men took the murderous anti-aircraft fire and attacks of German fighters on the missions that he sent them on.
		The truth is that like in the movie "Command Dicision" the Germans did develop a jet-fighter late in the war that if it was mass-produced and sent up against the allied air forces a year earlier would have won the Second World War for Germany.
