The radio.
That is so true!
I was out in the middle of nowhere Kosovo, and with one short call I had an Apache, and a couple of Bradley's giving me back-up.
We now have radios with satellite capability so line of site limitations are no longer a concern.
google the "Rockpile" it was our radio relay up on the DMZ and in the mountains up there. been there several times, usually a couple of companies of grunts dug in around it, and an army 175mm right across this cart path they called a road, Highway 9 as i remcall. i'll save the search time, the Rockpile had a 4x8' sheet of plywood on the top for a chopper pad, pilots could only get their rear wheel down and resupply

Radio?! Hell, Marconi wasn't even born when I was Army.
Marconi didn’t invent radio.
He invented something.
Yeah, but it was still the Continental Army back then...
Well, yeah! I had a muzzle-loading BAR.
