Abstract
In a recent article, we noted that MCDP 7, Learning is a useful starting point for explaining why learning is so important to the profession of arms and is a necessary first step to combatting some remnants of anti-intellectualism in the Corps’ ranks.3 That was its key purpose, and it successfully began what we hope will be a lasting conversation and broader movement that embraces learning and thinking in the Marine Corps and perhaps even inspires other organizations to start similar initiatives. MCPD 7, however, did not set out to address some fundamental aspects relating to the how that are necessary for improving our learning and thinking capabilities, progressing beyond an industrial era mindset, and preparing ourselves for great power competition.
