I can see where you're going and why you tied to to military experience, but don't forget there's a hell of a lot of soldiers who never serve in a combat unit. It's highly likely that those soldiers would have little working knowledge of tactics.
Tactics in my experience (Australian Infantry) is taught to NCOs and Officers during promotion and refresher courses. To be promoted from Private through Lance Corporal to Corporal for example, the soldier must complete Subject1 (Drill, giving lessons, etc) and Subject2 (field work on section level including tactics). Everyone does Sub1 to be promoted, but Sub2 is job specific and could be simply advanced electrical skills for an electrical engineer.
While an infantry/armour/other combat type Private can pick up knowledge without the courses, it's not specifically taught to them on more than a small unit scale. A non-combat soldier has no exposure besides wargaming/rpgs in their spare time.
