A target that is strategically valuable is one that offers advantages in some way to the overall plan of the commanding officer. For example, for a quickly advancing force a strategic location would be a forward resupply area. This is because the commander's overall plan is move swifltly and efficiently and one requirement of a mobile force is adequate supply. Thus, this can be generally applied to any military situation in which a location offers benefits to the overall plan of action. This differs from a tactical target. Tactics refer to how the said 'campaign' is carried out, or how a battle is fought.
