Well our enemies directly used and required the study of Sun Tzu during the Vietnam War. That was the late 60's early 70's.
Ernesto 'Che' Guevara also used Sun Tzu's teachings extensively when helping Castro win Cuba and later in Central America...Che also included a heavy dose of Sun Tzu in his own Manuscript (
Guerrilla Warfare) which is a bible on running an insurgency and VERY popular with our enemies. You'll find our enemies in the middle east are now cooperating with our enemies in the P.I. and such...that can only spell trouble, trust me.
