Although it is possible to distinguish conceptually between explicit and tacit knowledge, they are not separate and discrete in practice. [9] The interaction between these two modes of knowing is vital for the creation of new knowledge. [14] Tacit knowledge can be distinguished from explicit knowledge in three major areas: [2]
Tactical intelligence is focused on support to operations at the tactical level and would be attached to the battlegroup. At the tactical level, briefings are delivered to patrols on current threats and collection priorities. These patrols are then debriefed to elicit information for analysis and communication through the reporting chain. [5]
Military science is the study of military processes, institutions, and behavior, along with the study of warfare, and the theory and application of organized coercive force. [1] It is mainly focused on theory, method, and practice of producing military capability in a manner consistent with national defense policy.
A tact may be pure or impure. For example, if the environmental stimulus evokes the response, the tact would be considered pure. If the tact is evoked by a verbal stimulus the resulting tact would be considered impure. For example, if a child is shown a picture of a dog, and emits the response "dog" this would be an example of a pure tact.

[3] Strategic intelligence pertains to the following system of abilities that, according to Michael Maccoby, characterize some of the most successful leaders in business, government and military.: [4]
Success at the tactical level is no guarantee of success at the operational level since mastery of operational art demands strategic skills but not vice versa. Without a strong grounding in the theory and application of operational art, a successful tactician has little hope of making the demanding leap from tactics.
