The term staff ride describes three different types of exercise, each of which is conducted on a particular piece of ground: # The Classic Staff Ride # The Leavenworth Staff Ride # The Decision-Forcing Staff Ride ==The Classic Staff Ride== The classic staff ride (a direct translation of the German term ''Stabs-Reise'') is a technique made famous by Helmuth von Moltke the Elder in the second half of the nineteenth century. While serving as chief of the Great General Staff of the Prussian Army, Moltke took his subordinates on riding tours of areas where, in the event of war, significant military events (such as battles or the deployment of large numbers of troops) were likely to occur. These exercises served the double purpose of training staff officers to appreciate the operational and strategic significance of particular pieces of terrain and informing contingency planning. The term "staff" refers to the fact that participants in these exercises were originally members of the Great General Staff. The term "ride" recalls the fact that these exercises were conducted on horseback. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Staff ride」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
