Common Sense Training by Lt Gen Arthur S Collins Jr

Leadership is so much a part of the conduct of training that at times it is difficult to tell where one stops and the other starts. . . . 

"The best book on military training from platoon to division level that has been published in any army."--Army magazine

"His message is that whatever works and gets results by the most direct and efficient means is good. All else should be eliminated."--Air University Review

"A utilitarian book that talks intelligently of leadership, management and common sense."--ARMOR magazine

"A hardhitting and unvarnished . . . authoritative work that should be read and reread by everyone who aspires to be a truly professional soldier."--General Bruce Palmer, U.S. Army (Ret.)

"A gem, with few peers, invaluable . . . [Arthur Collins'] advice is always performance oriented. Don't talk so much about it, he says, Don't make so many fancy charts about training. Instead, do it. Teach it. Perform it."--Parameters
Lt. Gen. Arthur S. Collins, Jr., (1915-1984) graduated from West Point in 1938 and received an MA from George Washington University. He served in the U.S. Army for 40 years and was a combat veteran of World War II, Korea, and Vietnam. Collins commanded at every level from platoon to field army, before his 1974 retirement.
