Connected Soldiers: Life, Leadership, and Social Connections in Modern War Spencer John
John Spencer was a new second lieutenant in 2003 when he parachuted into Iraq leading a platoon of infantry soldiers into battle. He observed that this cohesion developed as the soldiers experienced the horrors of combat as a group, spending their downtime together and processing their shared experiences.When Spencer returned to Iraq five years later to take command of a troubled company, he found that his lessons on how to build unit cohesion were no longer as applicable. During that combat tour, he learned how important unit cohesion was to surviving a war, both physically and mentally.
Spencer came to see the internet as a threat to unit cohesion, but when he returned home and his wife was deployed, the internet connected him and Rather than bonding and processing trauma as a group, soldiers now spent their downtime separately, on computers communicating with family back home.
