Ready! Fire! Aim!\u2014A New Approach to Military Combat Using Language Science; by Fran\xe7ois Achille Bazaine; From Volume CLVIII, Number 3 of Speculative Grammarian, March 2010. \u2014 One of the aims of any branch of scientific inquiry is to improve the lives of men. Surely the Science of Language is no different, and just as surely the lives of soldiers are among those most in need of improvement. The French military has had a long and varied history, with its share of both victory and defeat. There is as much if not more to be learned from failure as from success, if only one will take the time to understand. After much reading of the writings of my countryman Jean-Fran\xe7ois Champollion, I have taken it upon myself to apply the principles of Language Science to the goal of the betterment of the French military.
