USA Today story on how Army is teaching negotiation skills to West Point cadets.

H.R. McMaster quoted approvingly.  

Details:

Until recently, the Army had put little effort into figuring out what makes a successful negotiation.  West Point began offering course in negotiating as a leadership skill in 2006 and last year started the West Point Negotiating Project to spread the training throughout the Army.

Good stuff.  Hell, I would love to take a course like that myself.

Usual alarming quote from Col Gian Gentile saying we're turning the force into a big bunch of wusses.
