摘要

The Army would do well to remember the French knights at Agincourt who rode forth tall, proud, and confident, only to be destroyed by English longbows-of which they were aware before the battle but had not deemed a pressing threat, warranting critical reflection and reform of force employment. Similarly, the cavalry branch must adapt-as opposed to just revisiting old ideas. At the same time, the Army must adapt by reconstituting the force, which should include reforming employment of cavalry to face the primarily urban, decentralized, flatly networked threats of 2025 and beyond. To that end, the Army must recognize that asymmetric warfare is not a niche capability-it is the future. Therefore, it must improve the force in accordance with two recommendations: development of specialized, decentralized light cavalry squadrons capable of detachment in reconnaissance, surveillance, and target-acquisition functions; and development of combined arms maneuver heavy cavalry squadrons trained and structured to conduct audacious offensive and defensive operations and more conventional reconnaissance and security, especially in forcible-entry situations. Above all, we must remember to be tactically sound and not doctrinally bound-in short, to innovate and not be like those French knights at Agincourt.
