Lessons of Command
If you hold the chief command, among other things you will learn that:

Your subordinates cannot read your handwriting;
Your subordinates cannot tell left from right;
Your subordinates cannot grasp the simplest concepts of maneuver, and;
Threats of physical violence are often necessary to secure compliance with your orders.

If you hold a subordinate command, you will learn that:

You cannot read the commander’s handwriting;
The commander keeps issuing orders to turn left when the situation obviously calls for turning to the right;
The commander must think you can read his mind to even attempt such complex maneuvers, and;
The commander has a nasty temper.
