“The American Airborne Forces had truly lived up to their motto, which was emblazoned in big letters over their camp gates: STRAC, meaning 鈥楽killed, Tough and Ready Around the Clock.鈥� To some wags in the SAS this was interpreted as 鈥楽hit, The Russians Are Coming!鈥� However, for many years afterwards in the SAS to be 鈥榮trac鈥� meant you were ready. [Concerning SAS training at Fort Bragg in 1962.]”

“...his methods of achieving his aim were a constant throughout his life:

鈥� No matter how verbose the orders, render them down to simple aims.

鈥� Know your enemy.

鈥� Plan every move from the point of departure to the point of return. Keep the element of surprise in mind at all times. Plan boldly and act boldly (but not foolishly).

鈥� Ask the question 鈥淲hat if聽.聽.聽.聽鈥� at every stage of the plan. Ask that question no matter how outlandish it may seem to be.

鈥� Give honest orders and honest answers to the troops鈥� questions.

鈥� Do not delegate a task unless prepared to do it yourself.

鈥� Select the right equipment, but always remember that it is the man who counts.

鈥� Rehearse, rehearse, and then rehearse again.

鈥� Hope for鈥攂ut do not expect鈥攇ood luck. If good luck does appear to be with you, exploit it鈥攆ast.

No one will deny that the Meadows-detailed preparation and planning phases for any operation paid off. It is a technique still practiced throughout Special Forces.”
― Alan Hoe, The Quiet Professional: Major Richard J. Meadows of the U.S. Army Special Forces
