Revenge of the Fifth

 I am a member of the Star Wars generation. I joyfully celebrate “May the Fourth (be with you)” and Revenge of the Fifth (May 5th).

Since taking my Joint Maritime Operations class in JPME I, I have learned about strategies and naval warfare. While watching Revenge of the Sith, I started to analyze the battle raging in the background. All I could think was, after thousands of years, why would the Rebels use that tactic? I could not sit still, thinking that there had to be a better plan than annihilation!

And now, I cannot watch any Star Wars movie without the voice in the back of my head telling me that their strategists were terrible. I could have written a better OPORD (Operations Order).
