Another 1914

A small quickly moving force can strike a vulnerable enemy position, inflicting damage and thereby weakening the opposing force in that sector and also drawing attention away from the thrust of the main force. A quick raid unit like that is not of sufficient size or strength to hold a defensive position when reinforcing enemy forces arrive, so it withdraws to strike again in another location. It is the tactic of "strike and run away to live to fight another day".
