REMINISCENCES OF THE 1971 INDO-PAK WAR
In the ancient world, the concept as it emerged during the BCE period wasn't about soldier-scholars.

This is because soldier-scholar suggests military dominance in the development of warfighting norms and modalities. This dominance gets marginalised when the hyphenation is reversed and becomes scholar-soldier. It opens itself to introducing the civilian scholar who understood war and warfighting well enough to understand its nitty-gritty, perhaps even suggest how it could be conceptualised, planned, fought, and ended.
