VANDERGRIFF, Donald E.. The mind and spirit are decisive weapons. Rev. Cient. Gen. José María Córdova [online]. 2019, vol.17, n.28, pp.847-868.  Epub 11-Maio-2020. ISSN 1900-6586.  https://doi.org/10.21830/19006586.518.

Everything that is done in a military's learning has an impact; understanding it allows leadership to make informed decisions based on verifiable observations and valid scientific reasoning. This article provides a learning philosophy to drive the evolution of service members from recruitment through retirement and the proficiency of units. Learning is a foundation that can be used to inform leaders on the development of leadership traits, problem-solving skills, and intangible attributes valued by military leaders and documented in the history of successful military organizations-that win in war. Learning can be verified and validated. It can bring specifications for tasks, conditions, and standards into a keener and complete correspondence with doctrinal requirements not only for training and education but also self-development within the military.
