Using Clausewitz to look at Nelson... makes for an interesting read and not something that one would normally see. It is much much much easier to do such a look at Nelson from the Mahan perspectives or from those of Teddy Roosevelt. But using a land focused Prussian strategist to look at a Great Naval Leader... makes for an interesting article.

LTC,
I enjoyed the read.
Nelson may have had an advantage. Being at a time and space where his countries Navy was Supreme. Which he would have breathe confidence from. Also, his personal traits of determination and fortitude are found in persons who succeed. An example for all striving to accomplish a mission.
Those within Americans military will bath in a similar environment of confidence.
Have a good night Sir.
