ALSO APPRECIATE THAT IT IS PROBABLY TOO LATE FORGUERRILLA TACTICS CF^DLVbSAL IN THE FACE C? SUPERIOR FORCE, FOIXOVED
BY REASSEMBLY IN OTHER PLACES AT LATER TIKE. HOWEVER, IF THERE IS ART POSSIBILITY OF GETTINO THIS IDEA ACROSS TO UNITS FACED WITH IMMINENT ATTACK BY SUPERIOR FORCES, WE THINK IT WOULD BE TOLL TO MAKE THE EFFORT.
AFFAIR CAN GO UN FOR SOME TIME AND TIERS IS NOHERE TO ABANDON THE EFFORT AS LOMG AS THERE IS ANYOF SUCCESS. HENCE THERE IS EVERY REASON WIT WE SHOULD TRYA FORCE IN BE!S

Ii. VE KNOW YOU WILL NOT CONSIDER THISECTURE DIRECTED TO LINC AND WILL UNDERSTAND THAT IT IS DICTATED BY OUR CONCERN ON THE SCORE THAT CALLIGERIS AND HIS LIEUTENANTS MAT BE ADOPTING THE WRONG TACTICS FOR REASONS CF FACE OR PRESTIGE, OR POSSIBLT BECAUSE OF IGNOPANCE AND HOPE IENCK. GOOD GUERRILLA FIGHTERS ARE HOT DORR AKD REGULAR SOLDIERS DO NOT EASILY ACCEPT THE NECESSITY OF EMPLOYING GUERRILLA TACTICS. USUALLY THESE LESSONS HAVE TORKED THE HARD WAY AKD THE PRESENT SITUATION MAY NOT AFFORD THE TTHE OR THE OPPORTUNITY FOR THIS TO BE DONE.
