Your quote means exactly that. Study the past and you'll find the future.

If the US had studied the past, we would not have gotten involved in Vietnam where the French had already gotten the hell beat out of them. Of course, in this case, ego was also involved. We are so much better than the wimpy Frenchies...
If Bush had studied the Vietnam War, we wouldn't be in Iraq. Etc, etc.
