Thrawn: Lessons learned

I can see it now, Thrawn standing around several holorecordings of General Binks' greatest battles, Paelleon ever at his side:

"Note how he calls in air support, ordering his men to prepare for the devastator before the separatist weapon was even deployed. Almost as if he can see the future. How do you think he did it, captain?"

"The Naboo possessed their blockade fleet. They must have cracked the droid transmissions."

Thrawn nodded, "General Binks mastered the art of controlling the information flow. At other battles where the confederacy had prepared traps to destroy his army, Binks chose not to engage. Correctly so, as they would have been certain death. He knew when to engage and when to retreat."

He stepped towards the Naboo battle, " further in every battle, he leads from the front line, not just to inspire his men, but to gain the most up to date info possible. He was always where he was needed. We can all learn a great deal from him."
