ARLINGTON, Va. — In an attempt to encourage critical thinking among its ranks, the U.S. Army announced it has standardized all procedures for thinking outside the box, sources confirmed today.
The new Army Doctrinal Publication 9-0: Thinking Outside the Box codifies time-tested methods for thinking unconventionally in "the proper Army fashion," officials said.
"The goal was to have a single, fixed way of thinking outside the box so we can make sure everyone is doing it right," said Chief of Staff of the Army Gen. Mark Milley. "Now I'm confident that all of our soldiers will think outside the box in accordance with Army regulations."
