The former SecDef had ordered the F-16, F-22, F-35 and F-18 fleets brought to 80 percent mission capable rates.

The book is styled as a three-part course in leadership tracing Mattis' 40-year career.

The former defense secretary said more leadership guidance is necessary for the change to be implemented.
