The title is ridiculous. The allusion is a hook for the armchair army guys out there. The article is actually quite sound in terms of theory. The only really bad part is the idea that this is somehow a manly trait. While the most observant person i have met was a man, the most observant people i know are overwhelmingly women, even if the skill(s) is hidden under another moniker.
Generally speaking, more observant people lead to better problem solving in groups IME.

Wow, loved seeing the OODA loop!
It is what the military gets trained, especially the pilots.
