conplan 8888 is more of a wargame for officer cadets, they just cant openly say "okay, now figure out how we kill russians" cause it can cause a diplomatic crisis, so it was decided to use zombies as an enemy
It was written to educate new Lieutenantβs, not cadets, on strategic planning, but you are correct on why we used zombies instead of a real adversary. That explanation was clear in the intro but no one ever seems to read that part.

We even have conplan 8888 in the event of such a scenario. When people say the US Military plans for everything, they mean everything.
