Episode description

Brandon Orr describes how the Special Operations Forces space was missing the ability to measure speeded cognition, why the measures that are currently used do not capture the split-second demands a soldier faces when kicking open a door and executing in the unknown, how fragile high performance is, and how knowing each Operator's wiring helps him relate to them and identify their advantages and disadvantages in performance.
