Chapter 3, Mission Outline, presents a graphic portrayal of the relationship between missions and their subordinate tasks.

d.
Chapter 4, Training Exercises, consists of a field training exercise (FTX) and supporting situational training exercises (STXs). This chapter provides training information and a preconstructed scenario for each exercise. These exercises can serve as part of an internal or external evaluation and may be modified to suit the training needs of the unit.

e.
Chapter 5, Training and Evaluation Outlines (T&EOs), provides the training and evaluation criteria for tasks that the unit must master to effectively perform its mission. Each task has a training and evaluation outline that identifies task steps, performance measures, and individual and leader tasks. Selected combinations of missions and their tasks comprise the training exercises in Chapter 4. Note: Some task steps within the T&EO may require modifications based on the digitized or analog equipment available to your unit.

f.
Chapter 6, External Evaluations, explains how to evaluate training and assess evaluation results. It includes sample worksheets, summary sheets, and evaluation scenarios.

1-4. MISSIONS. This MTP covers the specified missions found in the TOE and implied missions that this unit must perform in order to accomplish them. The critical wartime mission, Support Battalion Headquarters, is the focal mission for this unit. The commander may supplement these missions with his own. The following is a listing of missions for this unit:
a.SMissions.
(1)
63-1-E0002SSupervise Deployment of Subordinate Elements to a New Theater of Operations.

(2)
63-2-E0004SPlan Logistics and Combat Health Services Support for Brigade and Elements in the Brigade Support Area.

Resources. (3) 63-2-E0005SSupervise Relocation of Subordinate Elements and Sustainment
(4) 63-2-E0006SSupervise Establishment of Subordinate Elements and Facilities.
(5) 63-2-E0007SProvide Logistics and Combat Health Services Support for

Brigade ano Elements to the Brigade Support Area.
(6) 63-2-E0008SSupervise Force Protection Activities.
(7) 63-2-E0009SSupervise Redeployment of Subordinate Elements to Home Station
b.SEach of these missions may be trained individually or jointly with other missions. Training is based on the criteria described in the T&EOs. Several T&EOs can be trained as an STX. Various combinations of STXs can be used to develop an FTX for the unit to practice its entire mission responsibility. Several STXs can be developed into an external evaluation designed by the next higher echelon to evaluate the unit's ability to perform multiple missions under stress in a realistic environment.

c.
Leader tasks that support the unit's missions are trained through STP and Officer Foundation System (OFS) training, battle simulations, and execution of the unit's missions.

d.
Individual tasks that support collective tasks are mastered by training to standards listed in the appropriate STP.

1-5. PRINCIPLES OF TRAINING. This MTP is based on the training principles found in FM 25-100
and FM 25-101. For further information, see Paragraph 1-7 below.
1-6. TRAINING STRATEGY. The training program developed and executed by a unit to train to standards in its critical missions is a component of the Army's Combined Arms Training Strategy (CATS). The purpose of the CATS is to provide direction and guidance on how the total Army trains and identifies the resources required to support that training. CATS provides the tools that enable the Army to focus and manage training in an integrated manner. Central to the CATS is a series of proponent-generated unit and institutional strategies that describe the training and training resources required to train to standard.
a.SThe unit training strategies central to CATS provide the commander with a descriptive "menu" for training reflecting that while there is an optimal way to train to standard, it is unlikely that all units in the Army have the exact mix of resources required to execute an optimal training strategy.
b..A unit's training strategy is composed of three separate training strategies. When integrated with the training tasks found in the MTP, they form a comprehensive and focused training strategy that allows the unit to train to standard. The elements of a unit's training strategy are:
(1)
Combined Arms Training Strategy. CATS is intended to provide a set of recommended training frequencies for key training events in a unit and depict those resources required to support the training events.

(2)
Gunnery Strategy. The gunnery strategy is built around weapon systems found in the unit, provides an annual training plan, and depicts resources required to support weapons training. Data for the gunnery strategy comes from the Standards in Training Commission (STRAC) manual or appropriate field manual (FM).

(3)
Soldier Strategy. The soldier strategy provides an annual plan for training and' maintaining skills at the individual level and lists the resources required to train a soldier.

c.SA critical element in the unit training strategy is the identification of critical training gates. Critical training gates are defined as training events that must be conducted to standard before moving on to a more difficult or resource intensive training event or task. Training gates follow the crawl, walk, run training methodology. For instance, if the unit training strategy calls for conducting an FTX and an STX has been identified as a critical training gate for the FTX, the training tasks contained in the STX must be trained to standard prior to conducting the FTX. Standards for all tasks must be clearly defined so the trainer can assess the preparedness of his soldiers, or unit(s), to move on to more complex training events. The provision for critical training gates recognizes that the unit's METL and the commander's assessment of his unit's training status will determine the selection and timing of the collective training exercises in a specific unit's training strategy.
d.SWhen developing the unit's training plan, the commander identifies the training tasks from the MTP required to train his METL.
1-7. CONDUCTING TRAINING. This MTP is designed to facilitate the planning, preparation, and conduct of unit training as explained in FM 25-100 and FM 25-101.
1-3

DODDOA-007301
a.
The commander assigns the missions and tasks for training based on his METL and the training guidance from the next higher headquarters. Trainers must plan and execute training in support of this guidance.

b.
The commander reviews the mission outline in Chapter 3 to determine whether the FTX and STXs provided will support, or can be modified to support, the senior commander's guidance. If they do not support the guidance or need to be modified, refer to the matrix in Chapter 2. The matrix provides a listing of collective tasks that must be mastered to perform the mission.

c.
The commander prioritizes the tasks that need training. He never has time to train everything. He must orient on the greatest challenges and most difficult sustainment skills.

d.
The commander integrates training tasks into the training schedule by the following:

(1) List the tasks in the priority and frequency they need to be trained.
(2)
Determine the amount of time required and how multi-echelon training can be used for the best results.

(3) Determine where the training can take place.

(4)
Determine who is responsible for what. The leader of the element being trained must always be involved.

(5) Organize his requirements into blocks .of time and training vehicles.

e.SThe commander must approve the list of tasks to be trained and schedule them on the unit-training schedule.

f.
The commander must determine the equipment, supplies, personnel, facilities, and other resources needed to conduct the training.

g.
The commander must keep subordinate leaders informed and oversee their training. The training standards must be rigidly enforced.

1-8. FORCE PROTECTION (RISK MANAGEMENT and SAFETY). Leaders must understand the importance of using risk management and safety programs in conserving combat power and resources. These are not add-on features to the decision-making process but rather fully integrated elements of planning and executing operations, to include training events. Factors which impact on the accidental losses experienced in operations include: an ever-changing operational environment; the effects of fast­paced, high operational tempo (OPTEMPO) and high personnel tempo (PERSTEMPO) on unit and human performance; equipment failure and support failure; and the effects of the physical environment. Training events may mimic some of the characteristics of a wartime environment, and leaders will be challenged by the uncertainty, ambiguity, and friction, which create both opportunities and hazards.
a.SRisk management is the process of identifying, assessing, and controlling risks arising from operational factors and making decisions that balance risk costs with mission benefits. It is fundamental in developing confident and competent leaders and units. Risk is characterized by both the probability and severity of a potential loss that may result from hazards due to the presence of an enemy, an adversary, or some other hazardous condition. The risk management process acts to conserve combat power and resources. Managing risk requires educated judgement and professional competence. Risk management is a way to put more realism into training without paying the price in deaths, injuries, or damaged equipment. Both leaders and staff manage risk. The staff seeks to identify hazards associated with their areas of expertise, and recommend controls to reduce the risk. Leaders and individual soldiers become the assessors for ever-changing hazards such as those associated with environment (weather; visibility; contaminated items, air, water and soil), equipment readiness, individual and unit experience,
1-4

DODDOA-007302
and fatigue. Leaders advise the chain of command on risks and risk reduction measures. IAW FM 100­14, Risk Management, the basic principles that provide a framework for implementing the risk management processes are:
(1)
Integrate risk management into mission planning, preparation, and execution. This requires the ongoing identification and assessment of hazards and risks. Leaders and staffs integrate control measures into plans and estimates and implement those controls continuously.

(2)
Make decisions at the appropriate level in the chain of command. Leaders and subordinates are provided the guidance necessary to determine what level and types of risk are to be managed at what level of command.

(3)
Accept no unnecessary risk. Commanders, at the appropriate level and with consideration of the impact of available controls, analyze the residual risks against mission expectations. The commander alone accepts risks only if the benefits outweigh the potential costs or losses.

(4)
Observe regulatory restrictions and guidelines. Risk controls required by law, such as life safety and fire protection codes, physical security, transport and disposal of hazardous materials, and storage of classified material, will be enforced.

.b.SRisk management is a five-step cyclic process that is easily integrated into the decision-making process outlined in FM 101-5. The five steps are:
(1)
Identify Hazards. Identify the probable hazards for the missions. A hazard is an actual or potential condition where exposure to the hazard can result in injury, illness, or death to personnel; damage or loss of equipment or property; degradation to the mission. The factors of METT-TC provide a sound framework for identifying hazards.

(2)
Assess Hazards. Examine each hazard in terms of the probability and the severity of the potential outcomes to determine the risk level that can result from exposure to the hazard. The end result is an estimate of risk from each hazard and an estimate of the overall risk from hazards that cannot be eliminated. The Hazard Probability Chart (Figure 1-2), Hazard Severity Chart (Figure 1-3), Risk Assessment Matrix (Figure 1-4), and Levels of Risk Chart (Figure 1-5) combine to form a tool for assessing hazards.

(a)SFigure 1-2, Hazard Probability Chart, defines the terms used to describe how often an element of the unit is likely to experience a condition.
FREQUENT (A) Occurs very often, continuously experienced

Figure 1-5. Levels of Risk Chart
(3)
Develop Controls and Make Risk Decisions. Controls fall into three basic categories — educational controls, physical controls and avoidance. These controls must be effective, and to be effective they must be suitable, feasible, and acceptable. After the controls are developed and accepted, the leader determines the residual risk for each hazard and the cumulative effect of residual risks on the mission. Weigh the risk against the benefits of performing the operations and make the risk decision. Accept no unnecessary risks and make any residual risk decisions at the proper level of command. Apply the Appendix from FM 100-14.

(4)
Implement Controls. Integrate specific controls into plans, OPLANs, OPORDs, SOPs, and rehearsals. Communicate controls to the individual soldier, augmentation personnel to include personnel that are authorized contractors, Nor! Governmental Organizations (NGOs), Private Volunteer Organizations (PVDs), and media.

(5)
Supervise and Evaluate. Ensure that subordinates understand how to execute risk controls, and supervise to ensure standards and controls are enforced. Determine the effectiveness of controls in reducing the probability and effect of hazards. Develop the lessons learned, and

disseminate the findings.
c.SSafety also is a component of force protection. Safety protects the force and preserves resources through accident prevention and risk management. Commanders, leaders, and soldiers use risk assessment and management to tie force protection into the mission. Risk management assigns responsibility, institutionalizes the commander's review of operational safety, and leads to decision making at a level of command appropriate to the risk. The objective of safety is to help units protect combat power through accident prevention, which enables units to win fast and decisively with minimum losses. A good accident prevention program requires the ongoing review of unit operations and training during planning, preparation, execution, and follow-up to detect hazards and recommend controls and methods of preventing injury to personnel and damage to equipment and the environment. Eliminate hazards on a "worst first" basis. When safety is fully integrated in a unit, soldier errors, equipment breakdowns, and other negative effects are minimized. Performing to standard is one of the key steps in preventing accidents. Safety is an integral part of all combat operations and begins with readiness. Readiness
1-8
DODDOA-007306
depends on a units ability to perform its mission essential task list (METL) to standard. Readiness standards addressed during METL assessment are:
(1)
Soldiers with the self-discipline to consistently perform tasks to standard.

(2)
Leaders who are ready, willing, and able to enforce standards.

(3)
Training that provides skills needed for performing to standard.

(4)
Standards and procedures for task performance that are clear and practical.

(5) Support for task performance, including equipment, personnel, maintenance, facilities, and service.
d.SSafety demands involvement of the total chain of command in planning, preparing, executing, and evaluating training. The chain of command responsibilities include:
(1)SCommanders, who must:
(a)
Seek optimum, not adequate, performance.

(b)
Specify the risk acceptable to accomplish the mission.

(c)
Select risk reductions provided by staff.

(d)
Accept or reject residual risk, based on the benefit to be derived.

(e) Train and motivate leaders at all levels to effectively use risk management concepts.
(2)SStaff, who must:
(a) Assist the commander in assessing risks and developing risk reduction
Options for training.
(b) Integrate risk controls in plans, orders, METL standards, and

performance measures.
(c)
Eliminate unnecessary safety restrictions that diminish training effectiveness.

(d)
Assess safety performance during training; evaluate safety performance during after action reviews (AARs).

S
(3) Subordinate leaders, who must:
(a) Apply consistently effective risk management concepts and methods to operations they lead.
(b) Report risk issues beyond their control or authority to their superiors.
(4)SIndividual soldiers, who must:
(a)
Report unsafe conditions and act to correct the situation when possible.

(b)
Establish a buddy system to keep a safety watch on one another.

S
1-9
DODDOA-007307
(c)
Take responsibility for personal safety.

(d)
Work as a team member.

(e)
Modify their own risk behavior.

e.SAccident prevention requires that units and individuals observe the following guidance:
(1)
Train for the task.

(2)
Beware of overconfidence.

(3)
Don't play around.

(4)
Be attentive, incorporate rest breaks, and avoid overtired status.

(5)
Check equipment and fully perform PMCS.

(6)
Use equipment and tools correctly.

(7)
Be physically capable for the task.

(8)
Know how to safely perform the task. Develop good habits.

(9)
Promote a safety conscious attitude.

f.SDeath, serious injury, damaged or destroyed equipment and the loss of mission capability may result if personnel fail to observe safety precautions. The first five areas listed below account for more than half of all Army accidents during combat and tactical operations. Potential safety hazards are found in, but are not limited to, the following areas:
(1)
Vehicle Operations. Factors involve excessive speed, weather, traffic conditions, recklessness, fatigue, unfamiliarity with roads and untrained and inexperienced drivers. Ground guides are mandatory during movement in bivouac and assembly areas, when backing and during periods of limited visibility. Failure to correctly do preventive maintenance, especially for brakes and lights, contribute to accidents as well.

(2)
Sports and Recreation. Drowning is the leading cause of fatalities in this category. Basketball and touch football are the largest contributors to injury, usually due to lack of supervision and playing by "combat rules". While these accidents typically are not severe, they do reduce the effectiveness of a soldier.

(3)
Material Handling. These accidents occur when an object is too large or heavy to handle for the individual(s) attempting to move it, or when trying to move material when visibility is obstructed/impaired. Results include muscle and back injury, crushing of personnel and equipment, and miscellaneous damage to dropped loads. Additional injuries occur when steel banding, cut under tension, snaps free and whips into personnel. Leather gloves and face shields are required. Overconfidence in one's ability, a lack of planning and fatigue are contributing factors to accidents. Turn all vehicles off when loading, practice safe lift techniques (using the leg muscles not the back), and stay within load limits for MHE, slings, racks and platforms, and individual lift capabilities. Remove loose clothing, ID tags, and jewelry to prevent being dragged into moving parts. Hazardous materials must be so marked, the Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDS) readily available, and the Hazardous Release emergency plan be well rehearsed, to include communications of the danger.

1-10S
DODDOA-007308
(4)
Maintenance. The accidents are as diverse as the tasks; failure to follow procedures, improper use of tools, personal fatigue, and prolonged exposure to hazardous conditions (exhausts, burns from contact with both hot and extremely cold surfaces, chemical products and fumes, high voltage, debris driven by compressed air, welding arc, jewelry caught in machinery) are common factors. Electricity is unlike most other dangers because it gives no warning, has no symptoms, and its effects are immediate. It can cause severe burns, unconsciousness, nerve and brain injury, and death. Remove power and prevent accidental reconnections before any maintenance is done on electrical equipment. Never initiate a rescue until all power is confirmed to be off.

(5)
Tactical Parachuting. Poor parachute landing falls (PLFs) usually cause the injuries, but fatalities are often due to weather related loss of control.

(6)
Ammunition and Explosives. Mishandling, disassembly, unauthorized use and improper storage of ammunition and explosives result in fewer but more fatalities per incident. This category includes explosive souvenirs taken from battlefields or ranges. Post training shakedown inspections are a must. Grenades have a killing radius that make it dangerous to both enemy and friendly forces; train and enforce standards.

(7)
Field Expedients. The use of field expedient methods and materials are inherently more risky than standardized methods and approved materials. The need to consider them often traces back to inadequate planning or supply system problems. Be suspicious of shortcuts.

(8)
Field Heaters, Stoves and Engines. Combustion systems must be shut off before refueling. Only authorized fuels should be provided and used. Improper use generates flash fires and poisonous accumulation of fumes. Carbon monoxide occurs in the exhaust fumes of burning heaters and internal combustion engines. A lethal, odorless, and colorless gas, carbon monoxide exposure produces symptoms of headaches, dizziness, loss of muscular control, sleepiness, and coma. Brain damage or death can result from heavy exposure. The chemical/biological mask will not protect you from carbon monoxide poisoning.

POL and Solvent Storage and Handling. Petroleum, Oil and Lubricants (POL) handlers must be well trained and supervised to prevent catastrophic injury to both personnel and equipment, especially in storage and transfer operations. Static discharge grounding procedures must be rigorously applied. Fuel and solvents are flammable and caustic to skin and eyes, and toxic in the respiratory tract. Injuries include possible nerve damage, cancer, organ failure, birth defects as well as skin irritation and eye damage. Absolute adherence to environmentally sound disposal techniques is required. Protective Clothing and Equipment (PCE) must be issued and used while handling these products. Skin/eye protection is required. Avoid repeated/prolonged contact. Use only in well ventilated areas. Keep away from open flames or other sources of ignition. The flash point of dry cleaning solvent P-D 680 Type Ill is 138 degrees F. Clothing can become flammable if soaked with these products. Post FUEL FLAMMABLE/NO SMOKING signs around the area. Suitable fire extinguishers must be present. Vapors can be highly explosive in a confined space.

(10)
Soldier Fatigue. Soldiers suffering from sleep loss experience various symptoms of fatigue, including decreased coordination, narrowed attention span, and reduced adherence to standards of performance. Sleep plans are essential, and sleep areas must be controlled to prevent soldiers from being crushed by moving vehicles or being poisoned by fumes from idling motors.

(11)
Water Operations. Plan very carefully; the risk of drowning and equipment loss is very significant during water operations. Weak swimmers should be paired with strong ones and monitored closely. Equipment should be secured and floated, not carried by individuals, across the water. Float devices and safety lines further moderate risk.

(12)
Weapons. Accidents with weapons frequently occur when cleaning or clearing weapons, entering or exiting vehicles, or running with loaded rifles. Guidance for weapons handling and

DODDOA-007309

loading must be provided and strictly enforced. Weapons not essential for the current mission should not be loaded.
(13)
Weather-related Casualties. Unit effectiveness is lost quickly through weather­related casualties such as heat stroke, frostbite, and hypothermia. The seriousness of the injury is related to a combination of temperature, air velocity, duration of exposure, moisture and individual status. Snow blindness is a burn of the retina caused by ultra violet light reflected off snow, and similar effects may be experienced in desert environments. Operating vehicles in extreme environments requires additional preparation and modification of driving techniques. Instruct soldiers in awareness, prevention and first aid for weather-related injuries, and for constant assessment of changing conditions. Catastrophic losses may be experienced as a result of tornado, hurricane, thunderstorm and sheer winds. Individuals must seek shelter from flying debris, going to the lowest level possible within a structure or when out in the open. During electrical storms avoid wide open spaces, hills, isolated trees and towers, metal objects, power lines and wires, and water bodies.

(14)
Electrical Shock. Death, injury and destruction of equipment are the potential results of electrical shock. Sources of electric shock range the gamut from static electricity, batteries, generator and communications equipment, power lines, and electrical storms. Cables, wires, antennas, metal objects, graphite, water and any wet material are good conductors of electricity. Fiberglass and rubber are good insulators. Use Ground Fault Circuit Interrupters (GFCI) and grounding rods designed and installed IAW the specific Technical Manual for the static discharge systems, generators, power distribution networks, and communication systems in use.

(15)
Insects, Snakes and Poisonous Plants. Individual soldiers may experience significant discomfort and injury from adverse contact with wildlife. Death is possible, especially if the individual has an allergic reaction to the toxin. Each operational area will have its own specific threats, and the unit must coach its members to recognize, prevent contact and apply the appropriate first aid. Examples of threats include spiders, bees, wasps and hornets, snakes, scorpions, jelly fish, poison ivy, poison oak and poison sumac.

(16)
Personal Hydration, Hygiene and Sanitation. Unit readiness is greatly dependent on individual soldier health, which requires observance of basic rules for fluid replacement and the prevention of germ transfer and incubation. Potable water only is used for drinking and personal washing. Handwash stations, with soap, must be available and used at communal latrines and before entering food service operations. Minor cuts and abrasions become major injuries if left unattended. Foot care is critical in wet-cold environments. Effective April 1998, the Surgeon General revised the fluid replacement guidelines as shown in Figure 1-6, Fluid Replacement Guidelines. Both minimum and maximum amounts are critical values; too much is as dangerous as too little.

g.SFratricide prevention is a component of force protection and is closely related to safety. Fratricide is the employment of weapons, with the intent to kill the enemy or destroy his equipment that results in unforeseen and unintentional death, injury, or damage to friendly personnel or equipment. Fratricide is, by definition, an accident. Risk assessment and management is the mechanism with which the incidence of fratricide can be controlled. The primary causes are:
(1)
Direct Fire Control Plan Failures. These occur when units fail to develop defensive and, particularly, offensive fire control plans.

(2)
Land Navigation Failures. These result when units stray out of sector, report wrong locations, and become disoriented.

(3)
Combat Identification Failures. These failures include gunners or pilots being unable to distinguish thermal and optical signatures near the maximum range of their sighting systems; and units in proximity mistaking each other for the enemy under limited visibility conditions.

Inadequate Control Measures. Units fail to disseminate the minimum maneuver and fire support control measures necessary to tie control measures to recognizable terrain or events.

(5)
Reporting Communication Failures.SUnits at all levels face problems in generating timely, accurate, and complete reports as locations and tactical situations change.

(6)
Weapons Error. Lapses in individual discipline lead to gunnery errors, accidental discharges, mistakes with explosives and hand grenades, and similar incidents.

(7)
Battlefield Hazards. Unexploded ordnance, unmarked or unrecorded minefields, family of scatterable mines (FASCAM), and booby traps litter the battlefield. Failure to mark, remove, record, or anticipate these hazards increases the risk of friendly casualties.

h.SFratricide results in unacceptable losses and increases the risk of mission failure. Fratricide undermines the unit's ability to survive and function. Units experiencing fratricide observe these consequences:
(1)SLoss of confidence in the unit leadership.

1-9. ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION. Protection of natural resources is an ever-increasing concern to the Army. It is the responsibility of all unit leaders to decrease, and if possible, eliminate damage to the environment when conducting training. Use TC 5-400, Unit Leaders Handbook for Environmental Stewardship as a reference. Environmental risk management parallels safety risk management and is based on the same philosophy as safety risk management. Environmental risk management consists of the following steps:
a.
Identify Hazards. Identify potential sources for environmental degradation during analysis of mission, enemy, terrain, troops, time available, and civilian considerations (METT-TC) factors. This requires identification of environmental hazards. An environmental hazard is a condition with the potential for polluting air, soil, or water and/or destroying life forms or cultural and historical artifacts.

b.
Assess the Hazard. Analyze potential severity of environmental degradation using environmental risk assessment matrixes such as the one found on the following page (Figure 1-7). Severity of environmental degradation is considered when determining the potential effect an operation will have on the environment. The risk impact value is defined as an indicator of the severity of environmental degradation. Quantify the risk to the environment resulting from the operation as extremely high, high, medium, or low, using the environmental risk assessment matrixes.

c.
Make Environmental Risk Decisions. Make decisions and develop measures to reduce high environmental risks.

d.
Brief Chain of Command. Brief chain of command (to include installation environmental office, if applicable) on proposed plans and pertinent high-risk environmental matrixes. Risk decisions are made at a level of command that corresponds to the degree of risk.

e.
Implement Controls. Implement environmental protection measures by integrating them into plans, orders, SOPs, training performance standards, and rehearsals.

f.
Supervise. Supervise and enforce environmental protection standards.

g.
Environmental damage has many wide-ranging consequences. The complete success of the tactical mission depends on your environmental awareness. Leaders and soldiers must be aware of the ramifications of their actions on the environment, which, in turn, reflects upon the overall mission. Prevention of spills and improper disposal of hazardous waste is everyone's responsibility. Know the proper procedures for preventing and reporting oil or fuel spills IAW local unit SOP.

1-10. EVALUATION. The T&EOs in Chapter 5 describe standards that must be met for each task.
a. Evaluations can be internal or external. Internal evaluations are conducted at all levels. They must be inherent in all training. External evaluations are usually more formal and are normally conducted by a headquarters two levels above the unit being evaluated. (See Chapter 6, External Evaluations.)

b. A critical weakness in training is the failure to evaluate each task every time it is executed. The ARTEP concept is based on simultaneous training and evaluation. Too often, leaders do not practice continuous evaluation. Often, soldiers or small units are trained to perform a task to standard; then later,
1-15S
DODDOA-007313
when they execute that task as part of an exercise, they execute it poorly or incorrectly and are not corrected. For this program to work, trainers and leaders must continually evaluate training during execution.
c.
Leaders should emphasize direct, on-the-spot evaluations. Correcting poor performance during individual or small group training is easy to do. In higher-level exercises it is usually not feasible to do this with outside evaluators, but the opportunity for correction should not be overlooked. Plan AARs at frequent, logical intervals during the exercises (usually after the completion of a major subordinate task). This is a proven technique that allows you to correct performance shortcomings while they are still fresh in everyone's mind and prevents reinforcement of bad habits.

d.
FM 25-101 provides detailed instructions for conducting an MR and detailed guidance on coaching and critiquing during training.

1-11. FEEDBACK. Recommendations for improvement of this MTP are requested. Feedback will help to ensure that this MTP answers the training needs of units in the field and parallel requirements by training and combat developers. There is a questionnaire at the end of this MTP to make it easier to send recommendations and comments.

Chapter 3
Training Plans
3-1.GGENERAL. This chapter describes how to use the MTP to develop battalion level training plans and provides a mission outline. It is designed to assist commanders in preparing training plans for critical wartime missions. FM 25-100 and FM 25-101 provides detailed information on training management and should be used with the MTP for developing battalion training plans.
3-2.GLONG-RANGE PLANNING. Long-range planning allows commanders to provide timely input to the Army's various training resource systems and provide a general direction for the training programs.
a.DDevelop the Unit METL. The first step in developing a METL is analyzing all specified and implied missions and other guidance. Next, the unit's wartime mission is restated. After analyzing the unit's missions and external directives, a list of tasks is identified which must be accomplished if the unit is to successfully accomplish its wartime mission. Subordinate commanders and key NCOs participate in selecting the tasks. The task list is developed using the missions contained in Chapter 2 of the MTP, missions assigned to the battalion by contingency plans and missions directed by division commander's guidance. The commander reviews the task list and selects tasks that are essential to the unit's wartime mission. The selected tasks are forwarded to division headquarters. The final approved task list becomes the unit's METL, Figure 3-1.

b.
Establish Training Objectives. After the METL is identified, the commander establishes training objectives. The training objectives are conditions and standards, which describe the situation or environment and ultimate outcome criteria the unit must meet to successfully perform the tasks. Training objectives and standards for METL can be obtained from the MTP, STP, division headquarters guidance, and local SOP.

c.
Conduct Training Assessment. The training assessment is the commanders continuous comparison of the unit's current proficiency with the proficiency required to fight and win on the battlefield. The commander, his staff, and subordinate commanders assess the organization's current proficiency on mission essential tasks against the required standard. The commander then indicates the current proficiency by rating each task as "T" (Trained), "P" (Need Practice), "U" (Untrained), or "?" (Unknown). The outcome of the training assessment identifies the unit's training requirements, Figure 3-2.

d.
Develop Training Strategy and Commanders Guidance. The training strategy is developed using the outcome from the training assessment. With the training strategy, the commander and his staff establish training priorities by determining the minimum frequency each mission essential task will be trained during the upcoming planning period. It includes the commander's guidance, which includes the commander's training vision. To develop unit goals, the commander must:

(1) Review higher echelon commander's goals.
(2) Spell out, in real-world terms, what the battalion will do to comply with the goals of higher echelon commanders.

f.DPrepare Long-Range Training Calendars. The long-range training calendar is the coordinating tool for long-range planning. It is structured by long-range events to identify time periods available for training mission essential tasks. The long-range planning calendar projects the training events and activities of the battalion training program for the upcoming 12 to 24 months. To prepare a long-range calendar, follow the steps outlined below:
(1)
Select training events and activities to train the missions. The battalion commander must project events that will enable him to achieve his goals.

(2)
Assign time for subordinate units to train. Subordinate leaders must be allowed to develop their training programs in support of the battalion-training program.

(3)
Examine various training alternatives to make optimum use of the training support available to the unit. Available training resources must be compared against division directed training, DISCOM directed training events, and subordinate level projected training events. Resource tools available to the battalion commander are CATS, OPTEMPO, and STRAC.

(4) Obtain approval of long-range plans from DISCOM headquarters.

(5)
Issue Guidance. Training guidance is issued to the staff and subordinate units with the long-range training calendar. This training guidance supplements the long-range training calendar and generally includes:

(a)
Training policies.

(b)
Types of mandatory training.

(c)
Training resource guidance.

(d)
Quotas for centralized training (schools).

(e)
Training goals.

3-3.GSHORT-RANGE PLANNING. A short-range plan is prepared to address the immediate future (3 months). Short-range planning develops specific training objectives based on goals and guidance prepared during long-range planning. The short-range plan adds more detail and may modify the long­range plan based on current assessments. Prepare the short-range plan as described below:
a.DReview the training program, current unit proficiency, resources, and training environment.
(1)
Review the training program described in the long-range planning process. This review determines if assessments made during long-range planning are still valid.

(2)
Review previous short-range planning calendars for training accomplished, training preempted and lesson learned.

(3) Review current unit proficiency to update priorities.
3-4
DODDOA-007329
(4)
Review resources to determine if it is still possible to execute the program described on the long-range planning calendar.

(5)
Review the training environment again in this phase of planning because it takes on added importance as training events and activities approach. Factors that affect the training environment and that collectively impact on the training program are:

(a) Personnel assigned.
(b) Personnel turbulence.
(c) Morale.
(d) Education programs.
(e) Mandatory training.
Visits, inspections, and tests.
(g) Supplies and equipment.
(h) Non-mission-related activities.
(i) Other programs.

b.DDevelop a detailed plan of action for short-range training plans. Prepare the detailed plan of action as described below:
(1)DExamine events scheduled on the long-range training plan to determine if they are still valid.
(2)
Transfer valid events to a short-range training-planning calendar.

(3)
Determine desired outcomes for scheduled events.

(4)
Analyze missions to determine related individual, leader, and collective tasks.

(5)
Determine if there are weaknesses. Select tasks to correct these identified weaknesses and to sustain selected individual, leader and unit strengths, as necessary.

(6)
Select the specific training objectives for missions and tasks to be trained. The T&EOs in Chapter 5 provide the commander with training objectives.

(7)
Prepare a short-range training planning calendar or Threemonthly schedules. The short-range training-planning calendar provides a detailed plan of actions for the specified period.

(8) Review short-range plans with higher and adjacent headquarters.

(9)
Issue guidance. This guidance specifically addresses how training will be accomplished.

3-4..NEAR-TERM PLANNING. The final phase of planning is the execution of training. Using the short-range plan, prepare weekly training schedules.
a.DReview the training program, unit proficiency, resources, and training environment. As in long-range and short-range planning, this review determines if previous assessments are valid.
3-5
DODDOA-007330
b.
Finalize plans based upon the review of the battalion's training program. Determine the best sequence for training tasks and complete the final coordination of the training events and activities.

c.
Prepare trainers, observer controllers (OCs), opposing force (OPFOR), and support personnel to know what is to be trained, why it is being trained, and what their role in the training will be.

3-5..TRAINING THE BATTALION HEADQUARTERS. Planning training for battalion headquarters personnel provides the commander with unique challenges. The most severe challenges are those that have to do with the time and availability of personnel. The battalion staff and headquarters personnel are involved in day-to-day operations and support of subordinate unit training. It is difficult to find time to adequately address the training needs of these elements. These elements must be capable of fulfilling their role for the battalion to perform its wartime mission. The strategy selected by the commander for training these elements must include an effective method for training individuals, leaders, and units.
a.DTraining the battalion (Staff Training).
( 1 )DTraining of the staff presents the greatest challenges within a constrained training environment. This MTP identifies the training objectives for the battalion staff. The staff has numerous tasks to master to be effective. Examples of tasks that any staff must perform are:
(a) Analyze terrain and threat information.
(b) Function as an effective team.
(c) Exchange information.
(d) Prepare estimates of the situation.
(e) Provide logistics and CHS Support input into the battalion OPORD.
(f) Give appraisals.
(g) Make recommendations and decision.
(h) Prepare OPLANs.
Issue orders.

Coordinate and control unit operations.
(k)DSupervise subordinate units.
(2)DThe strategy used to train the staff will vary based on the considerations used in planning training (levels of proficiency, training support available, etc.). FM 25-101 contains detailed information on the conduct of exercises. Some methods of staff training include the following exercises:
(a)
TEWT. Tactical exercises without troops (TEWTs) are low-cost, low overhead exercises conducted in the field on actual terrain suitable for training units for specific missions. TEWTs are used by commanders to train subordinate leaders and staffs to analyze terrain and plan for the conduct of unit missions.

(b)
MAPEX. Map exercises (MAPEX) are a low-overhead training exercise that allows commanders to train their staffs to perform essential integrating and control functions to support their decisions under wartime conditions. MAPEXs may be used to train the staff to exchange

3-6
DODDOA-007331
information, prepare estimates, give appraisals, make recommendations and decisions, prepare plans,
and issue orders.
(c)
CPX. Command post exercises (CPXs) are medium-cost, medium overhead training exercises that may be conducted in garrison or a field location. CPXs normally use battle simulations to drive the staff actions.

(d)
FTX. Field training exercises (FTXs) are high-cost, high overhead exercises conducted in the field under simulated combat conditions. A unit-conducted FTX exercise the staff in coordination, control, and supervision of battalion operations. Unit-conducted FTXs provide the best opportunity for the staff to combine all of its skills and perform as they would in wartime, responding to both higher and lower levels.

(3)DAt battalion level, a method to optimize staff and unit training is to integrate TEWTs, MAPEXs, CPXs, CFXs, and combined arms live fire exercises (CALFEXs) to prepare the orders and plans for upcoming battalion FTXs. This exercises the entire spectrum of the staff effectively and makes the optimum use of unit field training time. Each unit is different and only the commander can determine the best method of training his staff.
b.DTraining the battalion. Training the battalion is a complex task requiring both unit and staff training programs. Normal day-to-day operations place a unique burden on the battalion commander to accomplish training. Elements cross staff lines and responsibilities. The battalion XO and CSM coordinate with the battalion and Headquarters and Headquarters Company (HHC) commanders to ensure individual soldiering tasks are being mastered.
3-6..DEVELOPMENT OF TRAINING EXERCISES. Chapter 4 provides sample exercises for the battalion to use or modify to meet specific training needs. Since only a sample FTX is contained in the MTP, it is necessary for the battalion to develop exercises for its own use. This section provides general procedures for the battalion staff to use for FTX preparation and for the battalion supporting STXs. Exercise plans are normally prepared during preparation of the short-range plan. Prepare the exercises as described below:
a.DSelection of Missions and Tasks for Training. This was accomplished during the development of the long-range plan.
b.DSite Selection. Confirm selection of a training area.
c.DScenario Development. After missions and tasks are selected, prepare a detailed scenario for the exercise.
(1) List the missions and tasks in the preferred sequence of occurrence.
(2) Identify events necessary for the control of the exercise. These events would normally include issuance of orders, AARs, and any other administrative or logistics action necessary to
conduct the exercise.
(3)used for each event. Prepare exercise overlays that show the sequence of actions and terrain to be
(4) Determine the estimated time for each event using the overlay and scenario. The

total time is determined to ensure that the scenario can be completed in the time allocated for the exercise.
d.DSelection of OCs and OPFOR. OCs and OPFOR are normally required for every FTX and for STXs when Multiple Integrated Laser Engagement Simulation (MILES) are used. It is difficult for a battalion headquarters to provide these from its own resources. When OCs and OPFOR must be
3-7
DODDOA-007332
provided from within the battalion, unit leaders may have to serve as the OCs for their units and the OPFOR may be selected from personnel or units not essential for attainment of the exercise objectives. Ideally, the battalion should provide OCs and OPFOR.
e.DPreparation of Control Plan. Control plans are developed to coordinate the actions of training units, OPFOR, and OCs. A detailed control plan is prepared using the developed scenario. The control plan should consist of:
(1) Detailed schedules of OPFOR actions.
(2) Detailed instructions for the OPFOR.
(3) Detailed schedule of activities for units.
(4) OPORDs and fragmentary orders (FRAGOs) for friendly units. Normally, friendly

unit actions are controlled through the issuance of OPORDs and FRAGOs.
f.DPreparation of the Evaluation Plan. All training is evaluated, either internally or externally. The evaluation plan identifies the tasks to be evaluated, by whom, and at what time. The evaluation will consist of:
(1)
Specific instructions for OCs.

(2)
A sequential list of T&EOs to be evaluated by each OC.

(3)
Detailed time schedule for evaluation and AARs.

3-7.GMISSION OUTLINE. The mission outline is designed to provide a graphic portrayal of the relationship of the critical wartime mission to FTXs and STXs. This outline should assist the commander and staff in the preparation of training plans. Figure 3-5 is a sample mission outline for the battalion.

Training Exercises
4-1..GENERAL. Training exercises are used to train and practice personnel in the performance of collective tasks. This MTP has two types of exercises: FTX and STX. These exercises assist the FSB
commander in developing, sustaining, and evaluating the FSB's mission proficiency. This chapter
contains one FTX and seven STXs which are designed to provide a basic plan to achieve proficiency in the seven supporting missions identified for the FSB. Table 4-1 is a listing of the FTX and STX.

4-2..FIELD TRAINING EXERCISE. The FTX is designed to provide a training method for the FSB to train its personnel to perform its overall critical wartime mission. This FTX provides a logical sequence for the performance of tasks previously trained in the STXs. The overall critical wartime mission provides the FTX orientation for FSB training. FTX should be conducted when the supported brigade is conducting an FTX.
4-3..SITUATIONAL TRAINING EXERCISE. The STX is a short, scenario-driven, mission-oriented tactical exercise used to train a group of closely related and collective tasks. The commander may modify the STX based on local METT-TC and available personnel and equipment. The STX provides the information for training personnel to perform the missions that make up the overall critical wartime mission. The STX performs the following functions:
a. Provides repetitive training on the missions.
b. Allows training to focus on identified weaknesses.
c. Allows the FSB to practice each supporting mission before the critical wartime mission.
d. Saves time by providing a majority of information needed to develop a method for

training.
4-4..SAFETY. During any training exercises, soldiers and leaders must be safety conscious. Evaluators and trainers have the responsibility to ensure that all training is conducted within established
D
DODDOA-007340
4-1
ARTEP 63-006-MTP
safety constraints. Prior to each exercise, all personnel will be briefed on specific safety measures to be taken during execution.
4-5.GVISUALIZATION.
a.
DBattle command is the art of battle decision making and leading. It includes controlling operations and motivating soldiers and their organizations into action to accomplish missions. Armed with the knowledge of the current state and the desired end state, commanders visualize those actions necessary to achieve the desired future state and then translate that visualization into action. It includes the following:


Assigning mission.


Prioritizing and allocating resources.


Selecting the critical time and place to act.


Knowing how and when to make adjustments during the fight.

b.
Battlefield visualization is the mental process that supports the commander's decision making process and his ability to anticipate support requirements. Using a vision of proposed support of combat operations allows the commander to know when, and if a decision should be made. It is a continuous process that commences with the receipt of a warning order and continues through the end of an operation.

c.
Digital information systems have the capability of providing a clearer picture to the commander. Digital systems enhance the commander's ability to have an understanding of the current state of friendly and enemy forces. This extends beyond the knowledge of their physical location and includes environmental, readiness, and human considerations. It includes the ability to see and understand the dynamic relationship between supporter and supported as the commander leads his subordinate elements through the sequence of events.

d.
The available digital information systems enhance the commander's situational awareness by providing him with an unprecedented level of friendly and enemy information. Commanders must recognize that the common, relevant picture that is produced by a myriad of information systems represent both known and estimated information, and is possibly flawed by human input. The commander must tailor this information with his judgment, intuition, and experience.

(c)DCommunications Exercise (COMEX)/Situational Awareness Exercise to practice battle command information procedures and operations, as well as logistics and combat health services support operations using available automation systems. These systems include Force XXI Battle Command, Brigade and Below, (FBCB2), Combat Service Support Control System (CSSCS), Movement Tracking System (MTS) and other battlefield functional area control systems and logistics and medical standard army management information systems (STAMIS). The FSB should practice continuity of operations (COOP) techniques and procedures in order to develop manual procedures for use in the event of automation failure or disruption due to enemy action.
(2)DEstablishing an aggressive spirit. An aggressive spirit can be established in a unit and its leaders by the following activities:
(a)
Aggressive unit sports and physical fitness programs. Such activity should be conducted with members of the supported maneuver brigade whenever possible.

(b) Leader or individual confidence courses.

(c)
Appropriate training films (CSS and combat) that have a positive, aggressive effect on the soldiers.

(3)DBuilding cohesion and trust. Cohesion and trust can be fostered between the supporting FSB and the supported FSBs by the following activities:
(a)DAwareness of FSB and maneuver brigade unit heritage.
(b)
DPartnership activity and training exchange programs between and among members of the FSB and the supported units. For example, the combat arms and combat support units have the expertise to teach combat and combat support skills to members of the FSB. The FSB, in turn, has the capability to teach logistics and CHS support related skills to members of combat and combat support units. Such activity will foster the mutual respect and trust needed on future non-linear battlefields.

b.
The FSB training cycle should be synchronized with those units that habitually supported. It is important that a habitual and closely coordinated annual training plan be developed and adhered to between supporting and supported units.

c.
This exercise begins with the receipt of a warning order and ends after restoration of the FSB to home station. Figure 4-1 illustrates the general sequence of task performances in this exercise. Table 4-2 is a suggested scenario.

d.
This exercise may be conducted under several options. These options are not all­inclusive, and can be exercised in various combinations.

4..General Situation.
a.
The multifunctional FSB provides direct support to a Brigade level combat team. The FSB commander is the brigade commander's battle logistician. The headquarters staff is charged with supervision of strategic deployment of subordinate elements to a new theater of operations and the relocation and establishment of BSA bases and facilities in a new area. It is also responsible for logistics and combat health services support operations in support of the brigade and attached units, force protection activities, and strategic redeployment of the FSB to home station. The maneuver brigade has been alerted for strategic deployment to a potentially hostile country. The HQ, FSB must deploy to provide command and control to subordinate logistics and combat health services support units. HQ, FSB personnel will deploy by air and equipment will deploy by sea and air. OPFOR is capable of inflicting Levels I, II, and III attacks and employing weapons of mass destruction at sea and aerial ports of debarkation, staging and marshaling areas, and along main supply routes. HQ, FSB is prepared for OPFOR activity during reception, staging, onward movement and integration (RSO&I) operations, establishment of BSA bases and facilities, and during logistics and combat health services support operations. HQ, DISCOM or HQ, Brigade will provide guidance to the HQ, FSB when a Level II/III threat is anticipated. Upon notification of a Level II/III attack, HQ, FSB will cease logistics support operations and supervise force protection activities within the brigade support area. Force protection activities will continue until the FSB coordinates battle hand over to military police units or a tactical combat force (TCF), and the hand over has been completed.

b.
This exercise is conducted under all environmental conditions, both day and night. The FSB will operate under threat of enemy assault by weapons of mass destruction, ground or air attack, indirect conventional fires, and electronic warfare.

c.
The FSB should be prepared to move by "leapfrogging" units, bases, and facilities while continuing to provide required logistics and combat health services support to the brigade combat team.

d.
The FSB should be prepared to relocate at least every 48 hours.

TSpecial Situation.

a.
The DISCOM or Brigade Commander has issued the following warning order:

"Be prepared to deploy the FSB to., vicinity ., coordinates .and supervise establishment of BSA bases and facilities. Be prepared to support brigade combat operations within .hours of arrival. Coordinate with DISCOM Support Operations and Brigade S4 on special requirements."
b. FSB Battalion Commander issues the following instructions to his staff.
"We are being deployed to support the brigade combat team in ., vicinity ., coordinates . and must be prepared to support brigade combat operations within .hours of arrival. Begin your planning process for deploying subordinate elements, relocating the BSA to .(grid coordinates), establishing BSA bases and facilities, providing logistics and combat health services support for brigade and divisional slice elements in the BSA, and conducting force protection activities. This exercise will begin with receipt of a warning order from me and end upon notification from me."
6.
TSupport Requirements.

a.
Minimum Trainers/Evaluators. The battalion commander, who will be the trainer and also the primary evaluator, will conduct this exercise. If possible, there should be an evaluator with each staff section and subordinate unit. At least one other evaluator is required with the OPFOR. Evaluators may be selected from the maneuver brigade, Headquarters, DISCOM, or sister FSB organizations.

b.
Vehicles/Communications. Radio and FBCB2 equipment is needed for controllers/evaluators and the primary trainer. Radios are required for OPFOR vehicles during operations. Each controller/evaluator reports directly to the primary trainer.

c.
Opposing Force. An OPFOR platoon (+) and one aircraft are required for the exercise for Level II/III threat activities. The OPFOR should be well trained in patrolling, assault, and guerilla tactics. The OPFOR should have specific missions in the unit area. Members of subordinate combat or combat support units of the maneuver brigade may perform in the role of OPFOR.

4-8. DODDOA-007347
ARTEP 63-006-MTP

d. Maneuver Area. Depending upon the LTA, It is desirable to have a training area with minimum dimensions of 6 by 20 kilometers. A road network is required that allows a road march of at least 10 kilometers.
e. Master Incident List (MIL). During the FTX, items should be continually fed into proper channels. Input from the Brigade S4, the maneuver battalion taskforce staff, other supported staffs and units and the DISCOM staff cause responses from the unit. A major purpose of this FTX is to drive HQ, FSB and subordinate or attached units to a simulated combat level of support requirements. The appropriate Battlefield Functional Area Control System (BFACS) should serve as the primary vehicle to distribute items from the MIL.
f. Using Units. In order to perform certain phases of this exercise, elements of the maneuver brigade, DISCOM staff, divisional slice units and subordinate or attached units of the Forward Support Battalion must participate.
g. Consolidated Support Requirements. Battalion Headquarters support requirements can be calculated by adding the sum of the requirements for each subordinate unit STX, and the requirements for the headquarters company when these elements participate.

"Begin your process for developing plans and brigade distribution systems to support this mission. I want a seamless and synchronized flow of materiel and other sustainment resources from echelons above brigade to the maneuver companies and other supported units with a minimum of double handling of cargo or customer wait time. I want maintenance managers to strictly supervise repair cycle time on all items on the Commander's Track Items List. Make maximum use of throughput and trans-load operations down to the FSC or customer level. CSSCS and FBCB2 give us an unprecedented ability to analyze courses of action, see the battlefield as it unfolds, and both anticipate and project requirements, not just react to them. Movement tracking capability enables us to support the throughput of sustainment resources with precision down to unit level logistics release point or weapons system level. I want a brigade distribution system in place to establish and maintain asset and in transit visibility of materiel and other sustainment resources in and out bound to the brigade. I want to be able to rapidly direct, redirect, cross-level, or mass logistics and combat health services support resources at critical points in the brigade area of responsibility.
Further information will be disseminated as courses of action are selected; after the OPLAN/OPORD briefing, and after the approval of annexes. If necessary, repeat any portion of the exercise until your performance is satisfactory."

(1) The OPFOR may or may not be required when the exercise is conducted as part of a STX. The OPFOR should be used if the exercise is part of a battalion FTX.
(2) OPFOR should be well trained in threat tactics, have specific missions, and be
controlled when used.
(3) The MILES can be used, or the OC can assess damage to the FSB.

c..Vehicles and Communications. Vehicles and communications equipment organic to the FSB are used. When OPFOR is employed, a vehicle, radio, and digital communications are needed for the OC.
d..Maneuver Area. A training area of sufficient size to support the number of vehicles and equipment in a tentative battalion AO is required. Vehicles should be spaced a minimum of 25 meters apart. Vegetation and terrain should allow cover and concealment for facilities, vehicles, and equipment.
e..Master Incident List (MIL). During the STX, the MIL is essential to provide input to drive staff actions. The MIL should be inputted using the appropriate BFAC.
f..Consolidated Support Requirements. Battalion headquarters support requirements can be calculated by adding the sum of the requirements for each subordinate unit.

The staff must become proficient in maintaining total asset visibility of sustainment resources. The staff must become proficient in: planning and coordinating internal and external logistics and combat health services support operations; providing intelligence; supervising OPSEC, force protection operations; and providing personnel service, logistics, administrative, and religious support. This STX combines the elements of distribution management, planning, coordinating, and supervising necessary to provide logistics and combat health services support to the brigade combat team.
2..Interface.
a.
This STX supports the FSB FTX - Support Brigade Combat Operations.

b.
This STX supports the DISCOM STXs - Direct Logistics and CHS Support Operations and Manage Distribution Systems.

c.
This STX can be used to plan, coordinate, and provide command and control of logistics and combat health services support operations and drive distribution systems during brigade tactical operations as part of a CPX or FTX. If this STX is used with all or some subordinate elements, the corresponding company-level STX should be trained prior to the battalion exercise.

3.TTraining.
a.TLeader Training.
(1)
During classroom activities logistics and combat health services support responsibilities and procedures outlined in FMs 8-15, 101-5, 101-5-1, and 71-3 should be reviewed. In addition, the trainer should review the TSOP and T&EOs listed in this STX.

(2)
CPX and MAPEX provide staff training to teach teamwork and proper preparation of estimates and orders.

(3)
CFX or TEWT using the FSB staff and a limited number of vehicles from subordinate units provide training for FSB leaders. Simultaneously, leaders from subordinate units train their related STX as part of the battalion officer and NCO development program.

(4)
Games and simulations are developed using logistics and combat health services support requirements driven by a brigade-level force. They are also used to exercise command and control at various command and staff levels.

(5) Tips for leader training.

(a)
Leaders should familiarize themselves with the doctrinal procedures for planning and implementing brigade support plans (FMs 7-30, 71-2, and 71-100).

(b) The FSB, maneuver brigade, and DISCOM TSOP should be reviewed.
4-31T DODDOA-007370
ARTEP 63-006-MTP
(c)
A personal reconnaissance should be conducted of the training area where the logistics and combat health services support operations will be performed, if possible.

(d)
The following leader tasks which must be trained or executed by the senior trainer (FSB Commander or XO) with this STX: identify specified, implied, and essential tasks of the brigade/DISCOM OPORD; establish support priorities in accordance with the OPORD; provide recommendations to the supported brigade/DISCOM commander; approve FSB input to the brigade/ DISCOM support plan; reassess requirements; reallocate resources; provide command, control, communications, and situational awareness; and supervise activities of the staff.

b..Tips for Training.
(1).After the FSB has demonstrated proficiency in the tasks in Table 4-12 and leaders have been trained in the leader tasks, this STX can be trained under several options.
(a)
In a field or MOUT environment.

(b)
With or without NBC environment.

(c)
Day or night.

(d)
With or without OPFOR interdictions.

(e)
Offensive, defensive, or retrograde operations.

(2).The trainer must become proficient in the doctrine and TTP of planning, coordinating, and supervising the logistics and combat health services support to the brigade combat team before attempting complex options.
(3).In giving his guidance and possible courses of action, the senior trainer should offer variations. Some variations are listed below.
mission. (a) Secure local area terrain features that could adversely affect the support
(b) Increase the size of the brigade combat team.
(c) Support multinational element.
(d) Support non-linear or deep operations.
(e) Apply automation constraints.

(4).After proficiency in this STX is reached, the FSB sustains proficiency by executing this STX as part of an FTX.
(5).When using OPFOR, the OPFOR evaluator/controller must exercise close control over the actions of the OPFOR. The trainer must set up specific OPFOR tasks. OPFOR will not be employed unless this STX is used as part of an FTX.
4..Training Enhancers.
a..The commander provides planning guidance based upon the supported commander's concept of operations or based upon his own judgement. The type of operations determines the scheme of and priorities of support.
.
DODDOA-007371
4-32
ARTEP 63-006-MTP

b..Support considerations for offensive, defensive, and retrograde operations are found in FM 71-3.
c..Staff recommendations are provided in hard copy to the senior trainer for evaluation.
d..All reports should be submitted in hard copy to the senior trainer for evaluation.
e..The Support Operations Officer and the Brigade S4 develop the support plan. The FSB staff implements the plan and monitors its progress.
f..In considering the proficiency of the staff, the following sequential guidance can be used:
(1)
Did the FSB logistics and combat health services support plan conform to the FSB and supported brigade commander's guidance?

(2)
Did the subordinate units properly implement the FSB logistics and combat health services support operations plan?

g..Deficiencies identified in (1) above should be traced to staff weaknesses. Those identified in (2) above are unit weaknesses. If the plan is satisfactory, but the unit execution is poor, then more frequent performances of support missions during FTX or company-level STX are required.
h..This exercise begins with the assignment of responsibility for developing the service support annex and ends when the BSA is under a Level II/III threat. AARs are conducted after staff input, after dissemination of the support plan, and a final AAR after implementation of plan. Table 4-12 is a suggested scenario.

Total Time: 15 hrs 30 min
NOTE: Events will be trained to standard, not time limitations. The time required to train an event will vary based on METT-TC factors and the training proficiency of the battalion staff.
5..General Situation.
a.
The FSB is deployed in a combat zone. The FSB mission is to provide logistics and combat health services support to a brigade combat team and the divisional slice elements.

b.
The brigade commander has issued a mission statement. The FSB commander, staff, and key leaders are assembled to begin planning.

c.
The Brigade OPLAN/OPORD is available. CSSCS and analog status reports of supply, maintenance, transportation, medical capabilities, and distribution systems are available.

d.
After the planning phase, brigade combat operations commence. Brigade combat team and divisional slice units operating in the brigade area generate sustainment requirements. Corps and Division (backup) distribution resources sustain the brigade combat team. Some FSB, combat, and combat support elements require back-up and/or reinforcing support. Field maintenance is conducted as far forward as possible using contact and combat repair teams. Maximum use should be made of throughput and transload of sustainment stocks from higher echelon CSS bases and facilities down to the lowest level DSU or customer logistics release point. CSSCS and FBCB2 systems provide situational awareness to enable a brigade-wide common, relevant picture of the combat posture of the brigade combat team.

e.
Intelligence information on the tactical situation is disseminated from the supported .

brigade to the FSB S2/S3 Section using the appropriate BFACS. OPSEC and physical security measures have been implemented by the battalion.
f. The OPFOR attack may be in the form of conventional or unconventional forces and have the capability of intelligence gathering, overt, and covert attacks. OPSEC program is a passive defensive measure. Local security is maintained by the use of OPSEC countermeasure techniques.
.
g.
-OPFOR has the capability to launch an NBC attack. Isolated NBC incidents have occurred.

h.
Subordinate units' battle rosters have been received. Casualties, transfers, and enemy prisoners of war (EPW) cause personnel adjustments.

i.
During this STX, brigade combat operations stabilize to a degree that administrative services can provided.

6..Special Situation.
a..The commander issues the following:
4-34. DODDOA-007373

ARTEP 63-006-MTP
"We will continue to support brigade combat team from this location for the next 2 days. Priority of support is to .Battalion. The enemy is capable of mounting attacks throughout the brigade rear and also of bringing indirect fire upon our unit positions, bases, and facilities. I want to maintain a seamless and synchronized flow of materiel and other sustainment resources to battalion task forces and other supported units with a minimum of double handling of cargo or customer wait time. I want maintenance supervisors to strictly enforce repair cycle time on all items on the Commander's Tracked Items List. Make maximum use of throughput and transload operations down to the FSC or customer level. CSSCS and FBCB2 give us an unprecedented ability to see the battlefield as it unfolds and anticipate and project requirements, not just react to them. Movement tracking capability enables us to support the throughput of sustainment resources and LOGPAC operations with precision down to customer LRP or weapons system level. I want systems in place to establish and maintain asset and in­transit visibility of sustainment resources in the distribution system to enable rapid direct, redirect, cross­leveling or massing of logistics and combat health services support resources at critical points within the brigade area of responsibility. Continue to seek ways to maximize distribution of sustainment resources to the battalion task forces, Engineer Battalion and other units. I want to be updated on the status of support as soon as you encounter problems or there is a break in the distribution pipeline. Now begin your planning process for providing logistics and combat health services support for brigade combat team operations."
b..The commander issues the following additional instructions:
"This exercise ends when the BSA is threatened with a Level II/III attack. You should conduct AARs after staff input, at the completion of the logistics and combat health services support plan, and at end of the exercise. If necessary, run the exercise again until I am satisfied with the staff's performance."
7..Support Requirements.
a..Minimum Trainer/OCs. This exercise should be conducted with the battalion commander or XO as the senior internal evaluator. If the STX is conducted for the battalion headquarters staff, then one evaluator per staff section is required. If the STX is conducted as part of a battalion FTX, the required evaluators should include the sum of evaluators of each subordinate unit STX.
b..Opposing Force:
(1)
The OPFOR is not required when exercise is conducted as a staff STX. OPFOR should be used if exercise is part of a battalion FTX.

(2) OPFOR should have specific missions and be controlled whenever used.

(3)
MILES can be used, or the controllers can assess damage to the FSBs in the FSB.

c..Vehicles and Communications. Vehicles and communications equipment organic to the headquarters are used. When OPFOR are employed, a vehicle and digital communications are needed for the evaluator/controller.
d..Maneuver Area. A training area of sufficient size is required to support the number of vehicles and equipment in a tentative BSA. Vehicles should be spaced a minimum of 25 meters apart. Vegetation and terrain should allow cover and concealment for facilities, vehicles, and equipment.
e..Master Incident List. During the STX, the MIL is essential to provide input to drive staff actions.

b. This STX supports the DISCOM STX -Coordinate Force Protection Activities.
c. This STX is supported by company-level STX -Defend Assigned Area.
3..Training.
a..Leader Training.
(1)
This STX can be used to plan and implement force protection activities as a part of a CPX or FTX. If this STX is used with all or some subordinate units, the corresponding company STX should be trained prior to the battalion exercise.

(2)
During classroom activities, the use of the TSOP and the responsibilities and procedures outlined in FMs 90-14, 71-3 and 71-100 should be discussed and the T&EOs listed in this STX should be reviewed.

(3)
The leader should use a map of the area where the STX is to be conducted and a sand table model to match the actual terrain, if possible.

(4)
CPX, CFX, and TEWTs provide ground training for leaders when the exact location of the STXs is used.

(5)
Simulations and games teach leaders as part of a continuing officer and NCO development program.

(6) Tips for leader training.

(a)
Leaders should familiarize themselves with the procedures for planning and supervising base and base cluster defense, operating the base cluster operations center, coordinating and directing responses to threat actions, and coordinating ADC operations.

(b)
Leaders should conduct a personal reconnaissance of the training area where force protection activities will take place.

(c)
Leaders should review the FSB, brigade, and DISCOM rear operations SOPs and OPORD.

(d)
The leader tasks which must be trained or executed by the senior trainer (FSB commander or XO) with this STX are: approve defense plan, implement defense plan, identify

4-37. DODDOA-007376
ARTEP 63-006-MTP
decision point for commitment of response forces, direct ADC operations, and command and control of the defense area.
b..Tips for Training.
(1).After the HQ, FSB has demonstrated proficiency in the tasks in Table 4-14, this STX can be trained under several options.
(a) Inclement weather.
(b) Simultaneous threats.
(c) Day or night.

(2).The staff must become proficient in the doctrine and TTP of planning, coordinating, and executing force protection activities before attempting complex options.
(3).After proficiency in this STX is reached, the staff sustains proficiency by executing this STX as part of an FTX.
(4).When using OPFOR, the OPFOR evaluator/controller must exercise close control over the actions of the OPFOR. The trainer must set up specific OPFOR tasks with an overall objective of placing maximum stress upon the staff.
4..Training Enhancers.
a.
The commander provides planning guidance based upon the supported commander's concept of operations or based upon his judgement. Intelligence reports influence force protection planning.

b.
Unless otherwise approved by the chief OC, all reports and recommendations should be provided in hard copy to the senior trainer for evaluation.

c.
Force protection limitations and assumptions include:

(1)
The lack of mobility impedes the ability of sustainment bases and facilities to rapidly shift locations.

(2)
The lack of heavy weapons prevents the FSB from decisively engaging and defeating a major enemy ground attack. Listening/observation posts must be located far enough forward of the perimeter to give early warning. The TCF or MP units, friendly indirect fire, and CAS should be committed as soon as the primary threat avenue is identified and the size of the threat exceeds Level 1.

(3)
Failing early notification, the defense should prevent penetration of BSA bases and facilities by committing the internal response force or shifting personnel from unengaged sectors of the base or nearby bases.

(4)
Once the OPFOR has achieved penetration of the sustainment base, rally points within each base will allow commanders to regain control over their elements for the purpose of reestablishing organizational integrity prior to conducting counterattacks to regain lost ground. Upon arrival of the TCF or MP units, base commander will hand over responsibility for counterattack to the Commander of the TCF or MP unit. Base commander will place base personnel under operational control of the counterattacking force for the purpose of regaining control of bases and facilities. Upon successful completion of the counterattack or instructions from Commander, TCF or MP unit, base personnel will revert to their original mission and command and control structure.

.
DODDOA-007377
4-38 ARTEP 63-006-MTP
e..These assumptions are based on the fact that when the enemy knows what type of units (CSS and CS) are grouped together, and where those units are located, they will become prime targets for threat weaponry.
f..Military Police (MP) will be committed as a response force against a Level II threat. The FSB and MP response forces are coordinated by the brigade S3.
g..Sustainment of the brigade is dependent upon the survival of the FSB. High-risk measures in defense of the FSB are justified and may be required in order to preserve the fighting capability of the brigade. These required measures include:
(1)
Total commitment of personnel to the defense until additional response forces can be brought to bear.

(2)
Commitment of all available combat/combat support weaponry (including those in repair or stock) to preserve brigade bases and facilities.

(3) The destruction of supplies and equipment to prevent capture by threat forces.
h..The FSB should not abandon sustainment bases and facilities without approval from the DISCOM commander.
i..In considering the proficiency of the staff, the following sequential guidance can be used:
(1)
Did the force protection plan conform to the commanders guidance?

(2)
Did the subordinate units properly implement the force protection plan?

j..Deficiencies identified in (1) above should be traced to staff weaknesses. Those identified in (2) above are unit weaknesses. If the plan is satisfactory, but the subordinate unit execution is poor, then more frequent performances of force protection activities should be conducted during FTX or company-level STX.
k..This exercise begins with a Level II/III threat and ends once restoration of subordinate bases and facilities are completed. AARs are conducted after completion of ADC activities and after restoration operations. Table 4-14 is a suggested scenario.

5..General Situation.
a.
The FSB is forward deployed in a combat zone. The FSB mission is to support brigade combat operations. The brigade is in contact with enemy forces and the enemy has either infiltrated or air dropped platoon size or larger forces to seek out command and control elements, sustainment bases and facilities for destruction. A level II or Ill threat condition is reached.

b.
The FSB has the responsibility for the defense of the FSB base cluster in the BSA. The FSB is responsible for the defense of the BSA against Level I and limited level II attacks.

c.
Responses to Level II/III attacks are handed over to the MP forces or a TCF.

d.
The attack has caused heavy damage to bases and facilities within the base cluster. ADC teams have been designated. Priorities have been established for ADC.

e.
The BSA bases and facilities are established IAW SOP and are supporting current brigade operations.

f.
The force protection plan is initiated with security elements in positions.

6..Special Situation.
a. The battalion commander is conducting a staff meeting where he provides the following guidance:
"The supported brigade S2 has reported that company and smaller-sized enemy units have begun operating in the brigade rear area. This is a Level II/III alert. Their mission appears to be locating combat service support units and causing as much damage as possible to brigade sustainment capability. Some elements are mounted, however, most are dismounted. Notify all units to be prepared to repel any attack before it reaches the perimeter of bases and facilities. Execute the base cluster defense plan. Begin your planning process."
b. The FSB commander issues the following instructions.
4-40. DODDOA-007379
ARTEP 63-006-MTP
"This exercise ends when the BSA returns to normal operational status. You should conduct AARs after the Force Protection Plan is completed, after contact with enemy forces and subsequent reorganization, and after completion of area damage control activities. If necessary, I will run the exercise again, until I am satisfied with FSB (Staff) performance."
7..Support Requirements.
a..Minimum Trainer and OCs. This exercise should be conducted with the FSB or XO commander as the senior trainer and primary OC. If the STX is conducted for the headquarters staff, then a maximum of three evaluators are required. If the STX is conducted as a part of a battalion FTX, then the required evaluators should be the sum of all subordinate elements STX. Each OPFOR platoon should have one controller/evaluator to control activity, assess damage and casualties, and evaluate tactics and techniques of FSB personnel. An additional evaluator should accompany each response element and have similar responsibilities.
b..Opposing Force. An OPFOR platoon (+) or company is required for the exercise for Level Ill activities. The OPFOR should be trained in patrolling and assault tactics and have specific missions within the BSA. During the conduct of an FTX both mounted and dismounted operations should be executed. The following guidelines assist in assessing damage:
or cover, is a casualty/destroyed.
(1) Any soldier that masks a firing weapon is a casualty.
casualty. (2) Any soldier that remains exposed for longer than three consecutive seconds is a
(3) Any soldier or vehicle within five meters of a grenade, unless protected by sump

(4) Any vehicle or equipment that OPFOR comes within five meters of is destroyed.
c..Vehicles and Communications. Vehicles and both digital and analog communications equipment organic to the FSB are used.
d..Maneuver Area. A road network is required that allows a road march of at least 20 kilometers.
e..Master Incident List (MIL). During this STX, the MIL is essential to provide input to drive FSB actions. The MIL should be inputted using the appropriate BFACS.
f..Consolidated Support Requirements. Battalion support requirements can be calculated by adding the sum of the requirements for each subordinate unit.

3..Training.
a..Leader Training.
(1)
This STX can be used to plan and implement redeployment (land, sea or air) of the FSB as part of an FTX.

(2)
During classroom activities, the use of the TSOP and the responsibilities and procedures outlined in FMs 55-9, 55-10, 71-3 and 100-17 series should be reviewed. In addition, ARs 700-84 and 750-1 should be discussed and the T&EOs listed in this SIX should be reviewed.

(3)
The leader should use a map of the area where the STX is to be conducted and a sand table model to match the actual terrain, if possible.

(4)
Command Post Exercises (CPX), Command Field Exercises (CFX), and TEWT provide ground training for leaders. STX support such exercises.

(5)
Simulations and games are developed to teach leaders as part of a continuing officer and NCO development program. They are also used to exercise command and control at various command and staff levels.

(6) Tips for leader training.

(a)
Leaders should familiarize themselves with the contingency plans and procedures for planning and executing redeployment operations.

(b)
Leaders should conduct a personal reconnaissance of the training area where redeployment training activities will take place.

(c)
Leaders should review the FSB, DISCOM, and maneuver brigade redeployment SOPs.

NOTE: Events will be trained to standard, not time limitations. The time required to train an event will vary based on METT-TC factors and the training proficiency of the unit.
5..General Situation.
a. The FSB is currently deployed in a theater of operations. The FSB is under the command and control of Headquarters, DISCOM. Hostilities have ceased. Divisional elements are redeploying to home station.
b. Subordinate unit commanders provide personnel and equipment status reports.
c. The MACOM logistics element provides required redeployment support.
d. APOEs, SPOEs, and the CONUS location are identified.

6..FRAGO. The commander issues the following FRAGO:
The FSB will begin redeployment operations immediately. We must be prepared to support the brigade combat team through its redeployment activity. S3, you have the lead. All units will prepare personnel for redeployment to CONUS by air and equipment by sea and air. I want 100% personnel and equipment accountability. Support Operations, I want to be briefed on the disposition of sustainment stocks remaining under the control of FSB subordinate units and in the hands of brigade combat team. Coordinate turn in of excess sustainment stocks with DISCOM Support Operations. Begin your planning process to prepare the FSB for redeployment to home station. Alternate route A will be used for moving to TAA/RAA. Be prepared to move to the RAA/TAA within ---- hours. I want a staff briefing at .hours. I will conduct an MR after the conclusion of this STX."
7..Support Requirements.
a..Minimum Trainer and OCs. This exercise should be conducted with the battalion commander or battalion XO as the trainer and primary OC. Because of the detail required in evaluating the details of redeployment, a minimum of one OC per staff section is required. The trainers and OCs monitor and evaluate the accuracy of the data, the soundness of planning and recommendations, and the thoroughness of coordination.
b..Opposing Force:
(1)
The OPFOR is not required for this situational training exercise.

(2)
The OPFOR should have specific missions and be controlled whenever used.

(3) The MILES can be used or the OCs can assess damage to facilities, equipment, and personnel casualties.
c..Vehicles and Communications. Vehicles and both analog and digital communication equipment organic to the FSB are used. When OPFOR is employed, a vehicle and digital communications are needed for the OCs. The senior trainer/OC requires communications to provide input from the MIL.
4-45. DODDOA-007384
ARTEP 63-006-MTP
d.
Maneuver Area. Depending upon the LTA, it is desirable to have an adequate training area for setting up operations, which is 6 by 20 kilometers. A road network is required that allows a road march of at least 10 kilometers

e.
Master Incident List. During this STX, the MIL is essential to provide input to drive FSB actions.

CHAPTER 5
Training and Evaluation Outlines
5-1. Introduction. This chapter contains the training and evaluation outlines for the unit. T&EOs are the foundation of the MTP and the collective training of the units. T&EOs are training objectives (task, conditions, and standards) for the collective tasks which support critical wartime operations. The unit must master designated collective tasks to perform its critical wartime operations. T&EOs may be trained separately, in an STX, in an FTX, or in live-fire exercises. For collective live-fire standards, the trainer needs to refer to the applicable gunnery manual for the appropriate course of fire. Those standards and courses of fire need to be integrated into the training exercise.
5-2. Structure. The T&EOs in this chapter are listed in Table 5-1. The Mission-to-Collective Task Matrix in Chapter 2 lists the T&EOs required to Vain the critical wartime missions according to their specific BOS.
5-3. Format. The T&EOs are prepared for every collective task that supports critical wartime operation accomplishment. Each T&EO contains the following items:
a.
Element. This identifies the unit or unit element(s) that performs the task.

b.
Task. This is a description of the action to be performed by the unit, and provides the task number.

c.
References. These are in parenthesis following the task number. The reference which contains the most information (primary reference) about the task is listed first and underlined. If there is only one reference do not underline the reference.

d.
Iteration. Used to identify how many times the task is performed and evaluated during training. The "M" identifies when the task is performed in MOPP4.

e.
Commander/Leader Assessment. This is used by the unit leadership to assess the proficiency of the unit in performing the task to standard. Assessments are subjective in nature and use all available evaluation data and submit leader input to develop an assessment of the organization's overall capability to accomplish the task. Use the following ratings:

(1)
T - Trained. The unit is trained and has demonstrated its proficiency in accomplishing the task to wartime standards.

(2)
P - Needs practice. The unit needs to practice the task. Performance has demonstrated that the unit does not achieve standard without some difficulty or has failed to perform some task steps to standard.

(3)
U - Untrained. The unit can not demonstrate an ability to achieve wartime proficiency.

f.
Condition. A statement of the situation or environment in which the unit is to do the collective task.

g. Task standard.
(1) The task standard states the performance criteria that a unit must achieve to successfully
execute the task. This overall standard should be the focus of training. It should be understood by every soldier.
(2) The trainer or evaluator determines the unit's training status using performance observation measurements (where applicable) and his judgment. The unit must be evaluated in the context of the
5 - 1
DODDOA-007386
ARTEP 63-006-MTP
METT-TC conditions. These conditions should be as similar as possible for all evaluated elements. This will establish a common base line for unit performance.
h.
Task Steps and Performance Measures. This is a listing of actions that is required to complete the task. These actions are stated in terms of observable performance for evaluating training proficiency. The task steps are arranged sequentially along with supporting individual tasks and their reference. Leader tasks within each T&EO are indicated by an asterisk (*). Under each task step are listed the performance measures that must be accomplished to correctly perform the task step. If the unit fails to correctly perform one of these task steps to standard, it has failed to achieve the overall task standard.

i.
GO/NO-GO column. This column is provided for annotating the platoon's performance of the task steps. Evaluate each performance measure for a task step and place an "X" in the appropriate column. A major portion of the performance measures must be marked a "GO" for the task step to be successfully performed.

j.
Task performance/evaluation summary block. This block provides the trainer a means of recording the total number of task steps and performance measures evaluated and those evaluated as "GO". It also provides the evaluator a means to rate the units demonstrated performance as a "GO" or "NO-GO". It also provides the leader with a historical record for five training iterations.

k.
Supporting Individual Tasks. This is a listing of all supporting individual tasks required to correctly perform the task. Listed are the reference, tasks number, and task title.

I.
OPFOR standards. These standards specify overall OPFOR performance for each collective task. These standards ensure that OPFOR soldiers accomplish meaningful training and force the training unit to perform its task to standard or "lose" to the OPFOR. The OPFOR standards specify what must be accomplished -- not how it must be accomplished. The OPFOR must always attain its task standards, using tactics consistent with the type of enemy they are portraying.

5-4. Use. The T&EOs can be used to train or evaluate a single task. Several T&EOs can be used to train or evaluate a group of tasks such as an STX or FTX.

Chapter 6
External Evaluations

6-1..INTRODUCTION. An external evaluation is conducted to evaluate the unit's ability to perform its critical wartime mission. This chapter is a guide for preparing an external evaluation. The unit may modify the evaluation, based on METT-TC and other considerations, as deemed appropriate by the commander. The unit will be evaluated using the standards from selected T&EOs found in Chapter 5 of this MTP. This evaluation will encompass the whole unit and should employ both a realistic OPFOR and the use of MILES. At the completion of the evaluation, the unit commander should be able to identify the strengths and weaknesses of the unit. These strengths and weaknesses will form the basis for future training and
resource allocation.
6-2..PREPARING THE EVALUATION. The commander must standardize evaluation procedures to accurately measure the units capabilities.
a..Prepare the evaluation by developing a scenario containing the major missions and appropriate tasks (Figure 6-1). Compile the selected missions and tasks in the order they logically occur in the detailed scenario. Group the selected missions and tasks in parts for continuous operations. Parts can be interrupted at logical points to assess MILES casualties and conduct in-process AARs. The sample evaluation scenario in Table 6-1 contains missions as well as the appropriate tasks necessary to develop the scenario and execute the evaluation. Selective tailoring is required, because it is not possible to evaluate every task. Figure 6-1 illustrates the general scenario of tasks performed in this exercise. The following procedures are suggested for developing the evaluation:

(3)
Select the tasks for the evaluation of every mission. List the selected tasks on the Task Summary Sheets, which are used for recording the results of the evaluation.

(4)
Compile the selected missions and tasks in the order they logically occur in the detailed scenario. Group the selected missions and tasks in parts for continuous operations, Table 6-1, Sample Evaluation Scenario. Parts can be interrupted at logical points to assess MILES casualties and conduct in process AARs.

b..Forecasting and Requisitioning Resources. Adequate training ammunition, equipment, and supplies must be forecasted and requisitioned. Support requirements must be coordinated consistent with the level of evaluation (section, staff element, etc.) being conducted. OPFOR players and controllers must also be identified early to support free play, if required. Table 6-2 is a consolidated list of support requirements for this evaluation. It is based on experiences with the scenario in Table 6-1. The evaluating headquarters will prepare its own consolidated support requirements.
Table 6-2. Consolidated support requirements
Battalion support requirements can be calculated by adding the sum of the requirements for each
subordinate STX, and the requirements for the headquarters and headquarters company when these
elements participate.
NOTE: The consolidated support requirements outlined are intended as suggestions only. Local policies or constraints may not allow for providing the items.
c.
Selecting and Preparing the Field Evaluation Site. Required size, type of terrain, OPFOR requirements, and administrative requirements are the basis for site selection. For this evaluation, an area of.meters X.meters is required. The OPFOR is positioned according to threat doctrine. The site must provide space for the administrative area required to support the evaluation.

d.
Planning Indirect Fire Simulation. Because it greatly influences the outcome of battles, reaction to indirect fire is an important consideration of the evaluation. Indirect fire simulation requires considerable planning to achieve realism.

(1)
The fire control system outlined in TC 25-6 is a recommended method of simulating indirect fire. Due to the amount of required resources, this method may be difficult to support.

(2)
The commander may use the evaluation control headquarters method or the simulation without OPFOR method to evaluate the unit's ability to react to indirect fire. If the evaluation control headquarters method is used, the OPFOR will initiate a call for fire to the evaluation control headquarters that will simulate the tactical FDC. The control headquarters would then relay the delivery data to the OCs who would mark the impact of the round with artillery simulators and assess appropriate casualties. If an OPFOR is not used, the OC may ignite artillery simulators and observe the unit's reactions. The FM 25-series provide assessment and computation tables which may be used to determine casualties. Indirect fire simulation must be realistic and limited to what the unit could reasonably expect under combat conditions.

6-3. SELECTING THE OBSERVER CONTROLLERS.
a.
OCs must know the unit's mission, organization, equipment, and employment. They should be at least equal in rank to the unit commander and have successfully performed in that specific, or similar, command position.

b.
The following are minimum rank and experience requirements for the evaluators:

(1).Battalion OC will be an officer with battalion command experience.
6-7
DODDOA-007584
(2) Company OC will be an officer with company command experience.
experience. (3) Platoon or section OCs will be a lieutenant or NCO with platoon or section
(4) Recorder will be an officer or NCO at the evaluation control headquarters who

receives "kill" information or results and time data from the OCs.
6-4..TRAINING THE OBSERVER CONTROLLERS. OCs standardize administration of the evaluation by understanding the following functional areas:
a..Evaluation Design. Each part is designed to evaluate specific missions or tasks within the overall scenario. OCs must thoroughly understand the evaluation and correctly implement it.
b..MILES. Each OC, regardless of position, must have full knowledge of the unit's weapons and vehicles and must also thoroughly understand the MILES system being used. The unit commander is responsible for ensuring that all MILES equipment is functional before each part of the scenario.
c..Evaluation Control System. This system ensures that the evaluation is administered in a consistent and standardized manner and that correct data is collected for the final evaluation. The Evaluation Control System includes the following elements:
(1)
Rules of engagement.

(2)
OC duties and responsibilities.

(3)
Communication system.

(4)
Evaluation data collection plan.

d..Safety. During any training event, all soldiers and leaders must be safety conscious. Evaluators must ensure that all events are conducted within established safety constraints. Prior to the beginning of each event, all personnel will be briefed on specific safety measures that are to be taken during execution.
6-5..SELECTING AND TRAINING THE OPFOR. The selection and training of the OPFOR is crucial to the success of a standardized evaluation. The OPFOR provides one of the control measures that influence the conditions under which the evaluation is administered. The unit should face an opponent that realistically resembles the threat in strength, weapons, and skill.
a.
Selection. Any qualified Skill Level 1 or 2 soldier can serve as OPFOR. Ideally, they should be a small, cohesive unit under the control of their leader or commander.

b.
Training. The OPFOR must understand the following six major areas:

(1)
Installation and operation of the MILES devices.

(2)
Rules of engagement.

(3)
Threat small unit tactics.

(4)
Training scenarios.

(5)
OPFOR weapons and equipment, if available.

6-8
DODDOA-007585
(6).Safety.
c..OPFOR Strength.
(1)
Unit in the Offense. Using MILES, the unit should be prepared to repel small unit attacks. The OPFOR must be armed with weapons capable of defeating any of the unit's assets. As a general rule, the OPFOR should be strong enough to offer the unit a realistic challenge, but one that the unit can defeat when proper tactics are employed.

(2)
Unit in the Defense. The OPFOR should have sufficient weapons and ammunition to conduct a successful attack. They must be more than merely a series of obstacles to be destroyed. The OPFOR should be allowed to plan their own attack for each mission and not be forced into a "canned" attack that all units will quickly defeat.

6-6..CONDUCTING THE EVALUATION. Evaluations are divided into three distinct areas. Each area requires a different degree of preparation and coordination.
a..Pre-evaluation.
(1)
The senior OC and all other OCs must recon the evaluation area to know the unit's boundaries, disposition of the OPFOR, and the most likely avenues of approach throughout the field evaluation site's AO.

(2)
The unit must prepare an OPORD and FRAGO to control the exercise. An order is prepared for each mission in the evaluation scenario. These can be prepared by using the skeleton orders contained in the STXs and FTXs in Chapter 4.

(3)
Unit preparatory activities include installation and troubleshooting of MILES equipment, loading vehicles, conducting inspections, and performing other logistics and administrative

actions, as required.
(4) preparatory activities. The OPFOR is placed in position and briefed while the unit is conducting its
(5) The OCs should make an equipment function check after each time the unit

moves and unit leaders have issued their instructions.
b..Evaluation. The senior evaluator controls the exercise and oversees the recording of mission performance. Evaluators resolve all conflicts and record all staff limitations as they arise. A debriefing should take place between modules to clear up any questions. Evaluators must remain neutral throughoat the evaluation.
(1)
The evaluation team controls the evaluation in two ways. First, it uses measures established in both the movement order and in Paragraphs 3 and 5 in the OPORD and FRAGO. Second, the team controls the evaluation through the team commander (simulated by the senior OC for this evaluation) on the team net. The team does not control in the traditional sense; instead, the team accompanies the unit as observers. Only the senior OC has direct verbal contact with the unit commander. Other OCs do not speak to, aid, advise, point out positions, or in any way influence the unit's performance, except for a possible or actual safety issue or emergency. OCs are neutral throughout the evaluation.

(2)
Once the senior OC issues the OPORD and movement order, the unit commander executes the events and actions prescribed in the first part of the evaluation scenario within the estimated time. From this point, all successive parts begin with a FRAGO.

6-9.
DODDOA-007586
(3).The senior OC terminates a part when the unit has completed all the events and actions in a particular area or has suffered so many casualties or damage that the part cannot be completed. The OC must record the reasons for the termination in the margin of the OC's Task Summary Sheets and report his action to the evaluation control headquarters. At this time, OCs must perform the following actions:
(a)
Inspect all MILES equipment, record "kill" codes, and reset equipment. Any damaged or inoperative MILES equipment is replaced.

(b)
Resolve all casualty data to determine the time, place, number, and cause of casualties. This information is reported to the recorder in the evaluation control headquarters.

(c)
Debrief the unit to resolve questions. Afterwards, the senior OC directs the unit to continue its mission after it receives a FRAGO or OPORD for the next part.

(4).The OCs should follow these guidelines:
(a) Report major "kills" (vehicles, groups).

(b)
Report major weapons fired. Together with reporting major kills, this is the best method for determining direct fire effectiveness. Both significant firings and hits are reported to the evaluation control headquarters.

(c) Enforce rules of engagement.

(d)
Observe critical tactical events of time. OCs must spot and record any action that might have an effect on later performance or mission outcome.

(e) Record travel routes and unit's location.
Inform OPFOR controllers of the unit's location, direction, and intent. This is necessary to enable OPFOR actions to be controlled in accordance with the desired sequence of events.
(g)
Enforce safety.

(h)
Terminate mission.

c..Post Evaluation. After the evaluation is terminated, the unit moves to an assembly area and performs the following functions:
control headquarters for recording and analysis.
(1) The unit OC debriefs subordinate OCs and compiles all data (evaluator packets)
for the evaluation.
(2) The unit OC must complete the task summary sheets.
(3) The unit must turn in all completed OC packets (with the OC scoring system) to

(4)
The unit OC must conduct an AAR of the unit's performance.

(5)
Each element OC should conduct an AAR of his element's performance.

6-7. RECORDING EXTERNAL EVALUATION INFORMATION.
6-10
DODDOA-007587
a.
The evaluating headquarters develops the data recording instruments for the OCs. The Unit Data Sheet, Figure 6-4, documents demographic information that may reflect on a unit's performance. The Environmental Data Sheet, Figure 6-5, documents weather information in order to compare missions under differing environmental conditions. The Personnel and Equipment Loss Report, Figure 6-6, documents information that may affect the unit's degree of success during engagements with the OPFOR.

b.
The senior OC has the overall responsibility for preparation of the external evaluation. This evaluation is based on his own findings and his subordinate OCs' input. Subordinate OCs use the task evaluation criteria (T&EO from Chapter 5 and Task Summary Sheets, Figure 6-3) to determine overall proficiency in their particular areas. The senior OC compiles the external evaluation results as proscribed by the evaluating commander. Deviations from the task standard assessed by the unit OC may be addressed in the senior OC comments portion of the UPW.

6-8. CONDUCTING THE AFTER ACTION REVIEW.
a.
General. AARs should be planned at logical intervals during the exercise. Identifying performance deficiencies while still fresh, getting everyone involved, and preventing the reinforcement of bad habits are critical to improved performance. On-the-spot evaluations and corrections should also be emphasized.

b.
Feedback. Because all members of the unit participate in an AAR, each member becomes a source of feedback. This provides a richer "database" for key points. The AAR leader draws information from each member that becomes an important part of the discussion. This information is the basis for discussing alternate courses of action.

c.
Preparing the After Action Review. AAR preparation involves five steps:

6-14
DODDOA-007591
(1).Review training orders and objectives. Training objectives are the focus of the discussion of exercise results. The FRAGOs and OPORDs included in the exercise design implement these objectives. The OCs should be familiar with the objectives, FRAGOs, and OPORDs, so they can note orders given by leaders of the evaluated unit and its subordinate elements that either implement these objectives, or deviate from them.
(2).Observe the exercise. This is an active process. The emphasis is on noting those actions that make the difference between the unit's success or failure. OCs do not need to remain close to the unit leader, since more can be seen from high ground near the lead element's location or along the unit's route of march. Because unit orders identify important activities and checkpoints, OCs must be present when the commander issues the order. OCs should position themselves where they can best observe anticipated critical events. Examples of critical events include:
(a) Conducting a road march.
(b) Crossing a radiological contaminated area.
(c) Performing unit supply operations.
(d) Responding to an NBC attack.

(3).Select the site and assemble the participants. After the exercise, select a site for the AAR. If possible, hold the MR where the majority of action occurred, where most of the critical events took place (normally where the OPFOR was positioned), or where the terrain can be observed. Usually, the OPFOR or unit objectives are suitable for assembling the players and conducting AARs.
•.(4).Debrief the OCs. While the units are moving to the selected site, the OCs should be debriefed. The senior OC must have a complete understanding of what happened in the exercise. The fourth step in AAR preparation is to obtain a detailed description of the exercise's events in the order
in which they occurred.
(5).Review the events. After the senior OC has a sound understanding of what happened during the exercise, he reviews the events that are ranked in terms of their relevance to the training objectives and their contributions to the exercise outcome. He selects as many events as can be covered in detail during the time allowed for the AAR and places them in chronological order.
d..Conducting the After Action Review. Conducting the MR requires five steps:
(1)
Organize the participants. When the senior OC and AAR leader assembles the participants, he groups them according to their organization in the exercise. Each subordinate element's OC is responsible for the element he observed.

(2)
State the training objectives. The MR leader makes a brief statement of the training objectives for the exercise. These are described as specifically as possible. He states any additional teaching points that he intends to cover during the AAR. These should be limited to three or four key points in order to keep the AAR focused and prevent it from becoming excessively long.

(3)
Lead the discussion. The MR leader guides the discussion of events in their order of occurrence. Diagrams help players visualize the exercise development. The AAR leader starts by sketching the main terrain features and, as the AAR proceeds, have the participants draw routes of advance, objectives, and locations of engagements. Each event is discussed in detail to make teaching points about the unit's performance during the event. The AAR leader should:

(a).Avoid giving a critique or lecture.
6-15
00000A-007592
(b)
Guide the discussion by asking leading questions.

(c)
Suggest the players describe what occurred in their own terms.

(d) Suggest the players discuss not only what happened, but also how it happened, and how it could be done better.
(e) Focus the discussion to ensure that important tactical lessons are made
explicit.
(f) Relate events to subsequent results.
objectives. (g) Avoid detailed examination of events not directly related to major training
(h) Encourage the participants to use diagrams to illustrate teaching points

and to show routes, phase lines, and objectives.
(i) Prohibit players from offering self-serving excuses for inappropriate tactical actions.
(4).Review the sequence of events associated with the hazards of the risk assessment made prior to the exercise. Ask the following questions:
(a)
Were effective controls put in place to avoid accidents?

(b)
Was training realism reduced through artificial control measures?

(c)
Were all participants aware of hazards down to the lowest level?

(d)
Did any hazard present itself that was not identified, and what was done to overcome it?

(e)
Were there incidents of fratricide or near fratricide, and how can they be avoided in the future?

(5).Summarize key points. The AAR leader briefly summarizes teaching points in terms of training objectives covered in the AAR. After the summary, he can have a private conversation with the unit commander regarding his strengths and weaknesses, and what he can do to improve his performance and that of his unit. A good AAR leader:
(a)
Maintains order and discipline.

(b)
Reviews the training objectives.

(c)
Addresses important events as they occurred and how the unit could have done them better. During the discussion, the leader avoids a detailed examination of events not directly related to the training objective.

(d)
Traces the chain of events so all participants understand the results of mistakes. One mistake is often the partial cause of another.

(e)
Clearly relates tactical events to teaching points.

(f)
Involves participants in the discussion.

6-16
DODDOA-007593
(g) Clearly and concisely gives a summary and new training objectives.
(h) Reinforces points by using sketches, diagrams, or terrain models in the AAR.
e..Reference Materials. Reference materials for conducting an MR are TC 25-6, TC 25-20, and FM 25-101.

Appendix A
Combined Arms Training Strategy
A-1. PURPOSE. This appendix provides, as part of the CATS, the Combined Arms Command's (CAC) recommended strategy for training a unit. This appendix has three parts. The first part describes CATS and explains how CATS fits into the training planning process as described in FM 25-101. The second part explains how to read the strategies, and the third part explains how to integrate CATS into the long-range and near-term planning process.
Section I. CATS AND THE TRAINING PLANNING PROCESS
A-2. TRAINING PLANNING PROCESS. FM 25-101 describes a three-step process, based on the unit METL and ending in training execution. Figure A-1 is a graphic representation of the process. CATS does not replace this process. It is a training tool that enhances the commander's ability to use the training planning process to manage his training and optimize the use of scarce training resources. CATS unit strategies describe recommended training events and the event frequency. Units may train all or some of these events. A unit's training frequency may or may not match that in the CATS strategy. Whatever a unit's training requirements, CATS provides a framework for use in making decisions on the training to be conducted. The training strategy outlined in CATS is designed to help commanders at all levels develop and execute a more efficient training program. Any given strategy addresses all units Army-wide of the same TOE. The specific makeup of the unit's training program is dependent upon its METL, guidance from higher headquarters, and the resources available at the installation or training environment. CATS unit strategies are descriptive in nature and intended for use as a guide for commanders.
A-3. CATS. CATS is the Army's training strategy that integrates combined arms training for heavy, light, and special operations forces, the active and reserve components, in the unit and institution environments. It provides an azimuth to guide Army training and identifies the resources required to support that training. It enables the Army to identify, manage, and program the acquisition of training resources. CATS evolved from the need for more efficient training based on expected resource constraints. At US Army level, CATS gives the rationale for acquiring training resources through the development of unit and institutional training strategies. The strategies provide recommended training frequencies and identify the training resources needed to support the strategy.

A-4..TERMS. The information in this paragraph explains the terms listed in Figure A-1. For information on the training planning process, see FM 25-101.
a.
The METL is an unconstrained, unprioritized statement of the tasks required to complete the wartime mission. It is the source of training planning activities.

b.
Assessment is the beginning of the training planning process. It is the commander's evaluation of the unit's training level based on the METL.

c.
Commander's Guidance consists of long-range planning calendars and Command Training Guidance (CTG) issued to the battalion from the division. It serves to focus the training efforts of the battalion in accordance with the division commander's priorities. The battalion in turn issues CTG for its subordinate companies.

d.
Training Plans are a collection of schedules and other supporting documents which carry out the commander's guidance.

e.
Training Execution is the actual performance of the training scheduled in the training plans portion of the training planning process.

A-5..APPLYING CATS. The information in this paragraph explains how to apply CATS to the training planning process. Figure A-2 is a graphic representation of the process.

a..The commander determines the exact events and tasks to be trained based on his METL and guidance from higher headquarters.
(1)
The unit trains tasks during events established in FM 25-100, FM 25-101, and CATS.

(2)
The unit trains its METL by training soldiers, and their appropriate sections, in their wartime tasks. The unit applies CATS to its training plans by applying the training events, frequencies, and critical gates contained in strategies to the CTG in developing training plans. The commander and training officer/NCO uses the critical gates identified in the strategies to ensure basic

A-2
DODDOA-007596
tasks are trained prior to moving on to training more complex or resource intensive tasks. The performance of training gate tasks are always evaluated by the commander and serve as the basis of additional training efforts. For example, a TEWT should be used to train METL tasks prior to conducting a complex and resource intensive event like a CFX.
(3).Training Aids, Devices, Simulators and Simulations (TADSS) based training uses a mix of TADSS and live fire/field training. The strategies show those TADSS within the Army's system or year projected for fielding. The TADSS may not be available at the installation or training environment.
b..The strategies can be viewed as training plans for generic type units. By inserting extra steps into the training process, commanders evaluate and apply the components of their CATS strategies to their particular training programs and environments. The optimal frequencies identified in the strategies may have to be adjusted depending upon the unit's training status or its resourcing.
Section II. STRATEGY ORGANIZATION AND INTERPRETATION
A-6..UNIT TRAINING STRATEGIES. This paragraph explains the strategy organization and explains how to use it. The unit training portion of CATS is a series of separately generated training strategies. These strategies describe the events, frequencies, and resources recommended to train to standard. As part of the unit training strategy development process, TRADOC established a standard format to depict unit training strategies. The unit training strategy is a descriptive strategy for training and sustaining soldier and collective task proficiency. The tasks to be trained at a particular unit will be based on the unit's METL. The unit strategy in this appendix covers all CSS units. The unit training strategies have three major components -- Maneuver, Gunnery, and Soldier.
a.
The Maneuver strategy is descriptive. It provides recommended training frequencies for collective training events in a unit. The events come from FM 25-100, 25-101, or the glossary of this MTP. The Maneuver strategy helps a unit maintain MTP standards and depicts the resources required to support training events.

b.
The Gunnery Component has individual/crew served weapons strategies that the Infantry school developed. These strategies can also be found in DA Pam 350-38 and DA Pam 350-39, or appropriate weapons FMs.

c.
The Soldier Component is a descriptive strategy for training individual soldier skills. It lists the resources required to support soldier training, and links with and supports a collective training strategy.

A-7..ELEMENTS OF THE UNIT STRATEGIES. The unit training strategies are in matrix formats. The matrix lists the unit size levels, training events or training exercises, training event frequencies for both active and reserve components, critical gates, and training resources.
a.
Training levels are units, training elements, or echelons (such as individual through corps) that execute specific training events.

b.
Training events are types of collective training exercises identified in FM 25-101 or the glossary of this MTP. Training events identify the recommended exercises units should conduct to train to MTP standard. Units normally conduct events in a progressive and sequential manner. For example, a TEWT should be conducted before conducting a CFX. A CPX should be conducted before conducting an FTX.

c.
Training event frequencies are the suggested number of times that an event should be trained during a training cycle to attain or maintain MTP standards. AC units use an annual cycle. RC units conduct training on a 4-year cycle.

A-3
DODDOA-007597
d.
A critical gate is a training event that must be completed and evaluated before moving onto a more complex, resource intensive or hazardous event. MACOM or field commanders may direct performance of critical gate training tasks to an established standard prior to performing more complex or resource intensive tasks.

e.
The unit training strategies identify the resources that will be used to support each training event. These resources are:


OPTEMPO


Ammunition


TADSS


Training Land


Training Ranges

The resources listed in the strategies represent those that are available now.
(1)
OPTEMPO figures reflect the annual operating miles/hours for the base vehicle for a particular unit, per event. The OPTEMPO figures come from the Battalion Level Training Model (BLTM). When no BLTM was available, the proponents developed an estimated OPTEMPO required to support all the annual iterations of that training event.

(2)
Ammunition figures reflect the ammunition required to support training events and come from DA Pam 350-38. The maneuver/collective strategies reflect blank ammunition requirements. Live ammunition appears on the Gunnery strategies. Pyrotechnics appear on the maneuver/collective component.

(3)
TADSS are training aids, devices, simulators, and simulations that support specific training events. TADSS listed are those in the system and non-system TADSS that are fielded. For example, Battalion and BBS is identified as a primary TADSS to support battalion staff and headquarters company/detachment's CPX training.

(4)
Training Land is a resource category that will list the recommended training land in kilometers by event to conduct maneuver training. The reference is TC 25-1. A particular unit will determine the actual amount of training land needed by METT-TC and the characteristics or condition of the training land available to the unit.

(5)
Training Range is a resource requirement that supports weapons training events. The information comes from TC 25-8.

A-8..GUIDE TO THE UNIT STRATEGIES. This paragraph provides a guide to reading the collective, gunnery, and soldier components. Generally, the leader using the matrices for planning will have a METL (or other list of critical tasks in which his unit must be proficient) and will be looking for guidance about appropriate training methods. The key to using CATS for unit training management is understanding the strategy and its various components. The strategy is organized by functional area and echelon to be trained. It has eight interactive components, expressed as columns in a matrix format. An example matrix for one mission/task is at Table A-1. The columns provide the following information:
• Column One records the mission and supporting tasks requiring training. The entries in Column One consist of the appropriate MTP missions and tasks.
A-4.
DODDOA-007598

Column Two shows the desired frequency of and interval between repetitions of the task(s). Both the unit's personnel turnover rate and the rate of progress need to be considered in determining how frequently to train.


Column Three lists alternative "training means"--combinations of events and media (live or simulation)--that might be selected to train this mission/task. Commanders must select an appropriate means for each training event conducted.


Column Four lists the estimated duration of each means (determined by the event more than by the medium). Commanders need to ensure adequate time is available for each task.


Column Five shows a means quality rating, related to the cost and realism of the event/medium. When choosing events and media, the resource costs of different training media must be balanced against the needs for realism and repetition. Generally, as the unit becomes more proficient, realism should increase.

An "A" level means is identified as a CTC deployment and training activity.
-A "B" level means is described as a well assigned home station training exercise.
-A "C" level means is described as a partial task training exercise.
-A "D" level means is described as a subtask training exercise.

Column Six identifies the training unit/audience for the event. The information in this column is drawn from the appropriate MTP.


Column Seven gives the prerequisite training (training "gates") that should be attained by the members of the training audience prior to the execution of the means in Column 3. If the training audience has not attained the specified level of proficiency, the means cannot achieve the quality indicated in Column 5.


Column Eight provides a place to record detailed comments concerning the purpose and desired outcome of each event along with other remarks or guidance

Section III. INTEGRATION OF CATS IN THE PLANNING PROCESS
A-9. INTEGRATING CATS. This portion of the appendix explains how to integrate CATS into the planning process. It focuses on long range planning conducted at brigade and above. To understand how CATS fits into this process, a brief summary of Chapter 3, (Planning) from FM 25-101 is provided.
A-10. THE PLANNING PROCESS.
a..Long Range Planning.
(1) Assessment. Assessment is the start of the long range planning process. Using their evaluations, the input of subordinate leaders, and the results of training evaluations, commanders assess their units training level on METL tasks. The assessment serves as the basis for the commander's training strategy for si istainment and improvement training. Commanders at all levels do this assessment function. An integral part of the assessment is the identification of required training resources and shortfalls. The commander also must synchronize the actions of supporting units and agencies to ensure proper training execution.
(2) In creating their training strategy, commanders ensure training:

Is METL focused.


Incorporates combined arms.


Identifies who, when, and where to train.


Has a logical sequence of execution.


Identifies the type of exercise to be trained. Determines the frequencies of a given task.


Coordinates all events.


Matches resources to requirements. The strategy that meets these requirements results in the commander's training guidance.


(3).Senior commanders (brigade and above) provide subordinate commanders with long range training calendars, the commander's training guidance, resources to train, and protection from training distorters. Commanders often provide recommended training events frequency.

b..Short-Range Planning. The short range planning process refines the guidance that results from the long range planning process. Subordinate commanders use this guidance to create their training calendars. Guidance on the short-range training process can be found in the CATS appendix in the units MTP.
A-7
DODDOA-007601
A-11. CATS AND THE PLANNING PROCESS. CATS serve the unit commander as a training management and training resource identification tool. As a training management tool, it allows the unit commander to more efficiently manage his training program, with limited resource availability. As a training resource identification tool, it identifies the resources within the Army's inventory to conduct training. The availability of those resources will vary, depending on location.
a..Long-Range Planning.

(2)
The CATS strategy:


Is METL focused.


Incorporates combined arms.


Identifies who, when, and where to train.


Has a logical sequence of execution.


Identifies the type of exercise to be trained.


Determines the frequencies of a given task.


Coordinates all events.


Matches resources to requirements.

(3)
CATS provide a convenient vehicle for the transmission of the commander's training guidance. It serves as the basis for the long-range calendar and provides subordinate commanders with recommended frequencies of training events.

(4)
Execution. The following example shows how CATS could fit into the long range planning process.

b..The Company/Detachment Maneuver Training Strategy lists the recommended frequencies for required annual training events. In particular, for the STX it lists 10 iterations. The optimal training frequency is for the company/detachment staff to train the event 10 times in a given year, 1 STX per month for 10 months. The frequencies listed in CATS would be trained as follows:

2 events per year - semi-annual training


4 events per year - quarterly training


6 events per year - bimonthly training

c..Naturally, the training year may not support such a neat breakdown of training events. CATS provide the flexibility to adjust the events to meet each unit's specific requirements. A key point here is the idea of critical gates. As one can see, STX is a critical gate for FTX. Every task that is a critical gate should be conducted before conducting the more complex task. Gates serve to ensure basic tasks essential to the successful performance of complex tasks are trained and evaluated prior to the performance of complex tasks. Critical gates may also serve as a type of preview or "rehearsal" for a follow-on training event.
A-8
DODDOA-007602
d.
Assume the commander has identified platoon leadership as a particular weakness in the unit. The commander decides he wants to run platoon STX exercises twice a month to train the platoon/section/crew/squad leadership elements.

e.
Using this guidance, simply go to the company strategy and substitute 24 for 12. If the frequencies for the other events are acceptable, the unit now has a coupled commander's strategy. In this manner a CATS base strategy is tailored to meet a commander's assessment and training needs.

f.
Short Range Planning. The application of CATS Battalion Staff and headquarters Company/Detachment's unit training strategies to battalion short range planning and the battalion quarterly training calendar is seen as follows:

Recommended Company/Detachment Calendar Using CATS Maneuver Strategy.
1st Month
Week 1 Drill Training (1)
Week 2 Cell/Staff/Section Training (1)
Week 3 Cell/Staff/Section Training (1)
Week 4 STX (2)

NOTES:
1.
The collective tasks trained during the weekly Cell/Staff/Section training periods support company METL tasks and are trained according to the commander's assessment and his priorities outlined in the CTG. Soldier training tasks trained during this month are soldier/leader supporting performance of the collective tasks to be trained during the weekly staff training sessions or the monthly STX.

2.
Performance of the STX substitutes for Cell/Staff/Section Training in week four (4).

2nd Month
Week 1 Cell/Staff/Section Training (1)
Week 2 Cell/Staff/Section Training (1)
Week 3 TOCEX (2)
Week 4 Cell/Staff/Section Training (1)

Notes:
1.
Training during these weekly periods concentrates on staff METL tasks identified as priority in the CTG. Training time here could also be spent training tasks evaluated as NO GO during the 1st month's training periods. Logistics Coordination Exercises (LCXs) and Maneuver Coordination Exercises (MCXs) can also be used to enhance staff coordination.

2.
Performance of the Tactical Operations Center Exercise (TOCEX) substitutes for performance of the monthly STAFFEX. Commanders may have to modify or extend the training period of the TOCEX to include training tasks that would have been normally performed in the STAFFEX.

A-9
DODDOA-007603
3. Tasks trained here can be tasks rated as NO GO during the previous week's TOCEX.
3rd Month
Week 1 Cell/Staff/Section Training (1)
Week 2 TEWT (1)
Week 3 Cell/Staff/Section Training (1)
Week 4 CPX (2)
Notes:
1.
This TEWT substitutes for performance of the Call/Staff/Section training that would normally be performed this week. Ideally, the TEWT's discussion points and learning objectives would be developed to support/reinforce collective tasks trained in the previous month's Cell/Staff/Section, STAFFEX, or TOCEX training periods. The commander may also structure the TEWT to train staff coordination and integration tasks as key for the upcoming CPX.

2.
Substitutes for performance of the STAFFEX normally performed during the month.

As seen in the above, the commander structures his training program using recommended CATS training events, frequencies, and critical gates to support METL training. Weekly or monthly training events can be conducted independently or integrated into other collective training exercises.
In scheduling training, the commander should take maximum advantage of higher headquarters directed events to accomplish recommended CATS training events.
g. •.Horizontal and Vertical Integration. In executing this training strategy, the commander vertically integrates his training requirements with the battalion's/group's training requirements. Additionally, the company's training strategy is horizontally integrated with other companies in the battalion to ensure combined arms training is effected.

THE EFFECTS OF THE LAWS OF LAND WARFARE

ON COMBAT HEALTH SUPPORT
1. The Law of War.
a. The conduct of armed hostilities on land is regulated by the law of land warfare (See DA Pam 27­1 and FM 27-10). This body of law is inspired by the desire to diminish the evils of war by--
(1)
Protecting both combatants and noncombatants from unnecessary suffering.

(2)
Safeguarding certain fundamental human rights of persons who fall into the hands of the

enemy, particularly prisoners of war, the wounded and sick, and civilians.
(3)
Facilitating the restoration of peace.

b.
The law of war places limits on the exercise of a belligerent's power in the interest of furthering that desire (diminishing the evils of war), and it requires that belligerents--

(1)
Refrain from employing any kind or degree of violence which is not actually necessary for military purposes.

(2)
Conduct hostilities with regard for the principles of humanity and chivalry.

2. Sources of the Law of War.
a. The law of war is derived from two principal sources.
(1)
Treaties (or conventions) such as The Hague and Geneva Conventions.

(2)
Custom--practices which by common consent and long-established uniform adherence has taken on the force of law.

b.
Under the Constitution of the U.S., treaties constitute part of the "supreme Law of the Land," and thus must be observed by both military and civilian personnel. The unwritten or customary law of war is also part of the law of the U.S. It is binding upon the U.S., citizens of the U.S., and other persons serving this country.

3. The Geneva Conventions. The U.S. is a Party to numerous conventions and treaties pertinent to warfare on land. Collectively, these treaties are often referred to as The Hague and Geneva Conventions. Whereas The Hague Conventions concern the methods and means of warfare, The Geneva Conventions concern the victims of war or armed conflict. The Geneva Conventions are four separate international treaties, signed in 1949, and are respectively entitled:
a.
"Geneva Convention for the Amelioration of the Condition of the Wounded and Sick in Armed Forces in the Field" (GWS).

b.
"Geneva Convention for the Amelioration of the Condition of Wounded, Sick, and Shipwrecked Members of Armed Forces at Sea" (GWS Sea).

c.
"Geneva Convention Relative to the Treatment of Prisoners of War" (GPW).

C-1
DODDOA-007607
ARTEP 63-006-MTP
d. "Geneva Convention Relative to the Protection of Civilian Persons in Time of War" (GC).
The Conventions are very detailed and contain many provisions, which are tied directly to the unit and CHS missions.
4. Protection of the Sick and Wounded. The essential and dominant idea of the GWS is that the soldier who has been wounded or who is sick, and for that reason is out of the combat in a disabled condition, is from that moment protected. Friend or foe must be tended with the same care. From this principle, numerous obligations are imposed upon Parties to a conflict.
a. Protection and Care. Article 12 of the GWS imposes several specific obligations regarding the protection and care of the wounded and sick.
(1)
The first paragraph of Article 12, GWS, states "Members of the armed forces and other persons mentioned in the following Article, who are wounded or sick, shall be respected and protected in all circumstances."

(a)
The word "respect" means "to spare, not to attack," and "protect" means "to come to someone's defense, to lend help and support." These words make it unlawful to attack, kill, ill-treat, or in any way harm a fallen and unarmed enemy soldier. At the same time, these words impose an obligation to come to his aid and give him such care, as his condition requires.

(b)
This obligation is applicable "in all circumstances." The wounded and sick are to be respected just as much when they are with their own army or in no man's land as when they have fallen into the hands of the enemy.

(c)
Combatants as well as noncombatants are required to respect the wounded. The obligation also applies to civilians, in regard to whom Article 18 specifically states: "The civilian population shall respect these wounded and sick, and in particular abstain from offering them violence."

(d)
The GWS does not define what is meant by "wounded or sick," nor has there ever been any definition of the degree of severity of a wound or a sickness entitling the wounded or sick combatant to respect. Any definition would necessarily be restrictive in character and would thereby open the door to

misinterpretation and abuse. The meaning of the words "wounded and sick" is thus a matter of common sense and good faith. It is the act of falling or laying down of arms because of a wound or sickness, which constitutes the claim to protection. Only the soldier who is himself seeking to kill may be killed.
(e)
The benefits afforded the. wounded and sick extend not only to members of the armed forces, but to other categories of persons as well, classes of whom are specified in Article 13, GWS. Even though a wounded person is not in one of the categories enumerated in the Article, we still must respect and protect that person. There is a universal principle, which says that any wounded or sick person is entitled to respect and humane treatment and the care, which his condition requires. Wounded and sick civilians have the benefit of the safeguards of the GC.

(2)
The second paragraph of Article 12, GWS, provides that the wounded and sick "...shall be treated humanely and cared for by the Party to the conflict in whose power they may be, without any adverse distinction found on sex, race, nationality, religion, political opinions, or other similar criteria..."

(a)
All adverse distinctions are prohibited. Nothing can justify a belligerent in making any adverse distinction between wounded or sick who require his attention, whether they be friend or foe. Both are on equal footing in the matter of their claims to protection, respect, and care. The foregoing is not intended to prohibit concessions, particularly with respect to food, clothing, and shelter, which take into account the different national habits and backgrounds of the wounded and sick.

C-2
DODDOA-007608
ARTEP 63-006-MTP
(b)
The wounded and sick shall not be made the subjects of biological, scientific, or medical experiments of any kind which are not justified on medical grounds and dictated by a desire to improve their condition.

(c)
The wounded and sick shall not willfully be left without medical assistance, nor shall conditions exposing them to contagion or infection be created.

(3)
The only reasons, which can justify priority in the order of treatment, are reasons of medical urgency. This is the only justified exception to the principle of equality of treatment of the wounded.

(4)
Paragraph 5 of Article 12, GWS, provides that if we must abandon wounded or sick, we have a moral obligation to, "as far as military considerations permit," leave medical supplies and personnel to assist in their care. This provision is in no way bound up with the absolute obligation imposed by paragraph 2 to care for the wounded. A belligerent can never refuse to care for enemy wounded on the pretext that his adversary has abandoned them without medical personnel and equipment.

b.
Enemy Wounded and Sick. The protections accorded the wounded and sick apply to friend and foe alike without distinction. Certain provisions of the GWS; however, specifically concern enemy wounded and sick. There are also provisions in the GPW which, because they apply to prisoners of war generally, also apply to enemy wounded or sick.

(1)
Article 14 of the GWS states that persons who are wounded and then captured have the status of prisoners of war. However, that wounded soldier is also a person who needs treatment. Therefore, a wounded soldier who falls into the hands of an enemy who is a Party to the GWS and the GPW, such as the U.S., will enjoy protection under both Conventions until his recovery. The GWS will take precedence over the GPW where the two overlap.

(2)
Article 16 of the GWS requires the recording and forwarding of information regarding enemy wounded, sick, or dead (See AR 190-8 for disposition of an EPW after hospital care).

(3)
When intelligence indicates that large numbers of EPW may result from an operation, medical units may require reinforcement to support the anticipated additional EPW patient work load. Procedures for estimating the medical work load involved in the treatment and care of EPW patients are described in FM 8-55.

c.
Search for and Collection of Casualties. Article 15 of the GWS imposes a duty on combatants to search for and collect the dead and wounded and sick as soon as circumstances permit. It is left to the tactical commander to judge what is possible, and to decide to commit his medical personnel to this effort. If circumstances permit, an armistice or suspension of fire should be arranged to permit this effort.

d.
Assistance of the Civilian Population. Article 18, GWS addresses the civilian population. It allows a belligerent to ask the civilians to collect and care for wounded or sick of whatever nationality. This provision does not relieve the military authorities of their responsibility to give both physical and moral care to the wounded and sick. The GWS also reminds the civilian population that they must respect the wounded and sick, and in particular must not injure them.

e.
Enemy Civilian Wounded and Sick. Certain provisions of the GC are relevant to the unit and CHS missions.

(1)
Article 16 of the GC provides that enemy civilians who are "wounded and sick, as well as the infirm, and expectant mothers, shall be the object of particular protection and respect." The Article also requires that, "as far as military considerations allow, each Party to the conflict shall facilitate the steps taken to search for the killed and wounded [civilians], to assist...other persons exposed to grave danger, and to protect them against pillage and ill-treatment [emphasis added]."

(a) The "protection and respect" to which wounded and sick enemy civilians are entitled is
C-3
DODDOA-007609
ARTEP 63-006-MTP
the same as that accorded to wounded and sick enemy military personnel.
(b)
While Article 15 of the GWS requires Parties to a conflict to search for and collect the dead and wounded and sick members of the armed forces, Article 16 of the GC states that the Parties must "facilitate the steps taken" in regard to civilians. This recognizes the fact that saving civilians is the responsibility of the civilian authorities rather than of the military. The military is not required to proVide injured civilians with medical care in a CZ. However, if we start providing treatment we are bound by the provisions of the. GWS. Provisions for treating civilians (enemy or friendly) will be addressed in COMMZ regulations.

(2)
In occupied territories, the Occupying Power must accord the inhabitants numerous protections as required by the GC. The provisions relevant to medical care include--

(a)
Requirement to bring in medical supplies for the population if the resources of the occupied territory are inadequate.

(b)
Prohibition on requisitioning medical supplies unless the requirements of the civilian population have been taken into account.

(c)
Duty of ensuring and maintaining, with the cooperation of national and local authorities, the medical and hospital establishments and services, public health, and hygiene in the occupied territory.

(d)
Requirement that medical personnel of all categories be allowed to carry out their duties.

(e)
Prohibition on requisitioning civilian hospitals on other than a temporary basis and then only in cases of urgent necessity for the care of military wounded and sick and after suitable arrangements have been made for the civilian patients.

(f)
Requirement to provide adequate medical treatment to detained persons.

(g)
Requirement to provide adequate medical care in internment camps.

5. Protection and Identification of Medical Personnel. Article 24 of the GWS provides special protection for "Medical personnel exclusively engaged in the search for, or the collection, transport, or treatment of the wounded or sick, or in the prevention of disease, [and] staff exclusively engaged in the administration of medical units and establishments...[emphasis added]." Article 25 provides limited protection for "Members of the armed forces specially trained for employment, should the need arise, as hospital orderlies, nurses, or auxiliary stretcher-bearers, in the search for or the collection, transport, or treatment of the wounded and sick, if they are carrying out those duties at the time when they come into contact with the enemy or fall into his hands [emphasis added]."
a. Protection. There are two separate and distinct forms of protection.
(1)
The first is protection from intentional attack if medical personnel are identifiable as such by an enemy in a combat environment. Normally this is facilitated by medical personnel wearing an arm band bearing the Distinctive Emblem (a red cross or red crescent, on a white background), or by their employment in a medical unit, establishment, or vehicle (including medical aircraft and hospital ships) that displays the Distinctive Emblem. Persons protected by Article 25 may wear an arm band bearing a miniature Distinctive Emblem only while executing medical duties.

(2)
The second protection provided by the GWS pertains to medical personnel who fall into the hands of the enemy. Article 24 personnel are entitled to "retained person" status. They are not deemed to be prisoners of war, but otherwise benefit from the protections of the GPW. They are authorized to

C-4
DODDOA-007610
ARTEP 63-006-MTP
carry out medical duties only, and "shall be retained only in so far as the state of health...and the number of prisoners of war require." Article 25 personnel are prisoners of war, but shall be employed on their medical duties in so far as the need arises. They may be required to perform other duties or labor, and they may be held until a general repatriation of prisoners of war is accomplished upon the cessation of hostilities.
b. Specific Cases. The AMEDD personnel and non-AMEDD personnel assigned to medical units fall into the category identified in Article 24 provided they meet the "exclusively engaged" criteria of that article. The U.S. Army does not have any personnel who officially fall into the category identified in Article 25. While it is not a violation of the GWS for Article 24 personnel to perform nonmedical duties, it should be understood; however, that Article 24 personnel lose their protected status under that article if they perform duties or tasks inconsistent with their noncombatant role. Should those personnel later take up their medical duties again, a reasonable argument might be made that they cannot regain Article 24 status since they have not been exclusively engaged in medical duties and that such switching of roles might at best cause such personnel to fall under the category identified in Article 25.
(1)
While only Article 25 refers to nurses, nurses are Article 24 personnel if they meet the "exclusively engaged" criteria of that article.

(2)
The AMEDD officers and NCOs assigned to nonmedical positions in an FSB, MSB, or DISCOM are neither Article 24 nor Article 25 personnel. Such assignments place them in the role of a combatant. Examples of such personnel are--

(a)
The AMEDD officers serving as commanders of FSBs or MSBs with responsibility for base or base cluster defense as well as command and control of medical and nonmedical units.

(b)
The AMEDD officers and NCOs assigned to nonmedical staff positions with an FSB or MSB with responsibility for planning and supervising the logistics support for a combat maneuver brigade or other combat unit.

(3)
Article 24 personnel who might become Article 25 personnel by virtue of their switching roles could include the following:

(a)
A medical company commander, a physician, or the executive officer, an MSC officer, detailed as convoy march unit commander with responsibility for medical and nonmedical unit routes of march, convoy control, defense, and repulsing attacks.

(b)
Helicopter pilots who are permanently assigned to a dedicated medical aviation unit to fly medical evacuation helicopters, but fly helicopters not bearing the red cross emblems on standard combat missions during other times.

(4)
The GWS does not itself prohibit the use of Article 24 personnel in perimeter defense of nonmedical units such as unit trains logistics areas or base clusters under overall security defense plans, but the policy of the U.S. Army is that Article 24 personnel will not be used for this purpose. Adherence to this policy should avoid any issues regarding their status under the GWS due to a temporary change in their role from noncombatant to combatant. Medical personnel may guard their own unit without any concurrent loss of their protected status.

c.
Identification Cards and Arm Bands. Medical personnel who meet the "exclusively engaged" criteria of Article 24, GWS, are entitled to wear an arm band bearing the Distinctive Emblem of the red cross and carry the medical personnel identification card authorized in Article 40, GWS (in the U.S. armed services, • Department of Defense (DD) Form 1934). Article 25 personnel and medical personnel serving in positions that do not meet the "exclusively engaged" criteria of Article 24 are not entitled to carry the medical personnel identification card or wear the Distinctive Emblem arm band. Such personnel carry a standard military identification card (DD Form 2A) and, under Article 25, may wear an arm band bearing a

C-5
DODDOA-007611
ARTEP 63-006-MTP
miniature Distinctive Emblem when executing medical duties. (For a discussion of ID cards, see AR 600-8-14.)
This paragraph implements STANAGs 2027, 2060, 2931 and QSTAG 248.
6. Protection and Identification of Medical Units and Establishments, Buildings and Materiel, and Medical Transports.
a. Protection. There are two separate and distinct forms of protection.
(1)
The first is protection from intentional attack if medical units, establishments, or transports are identifiable as such by an enemy in a combat environment. Normally, this is facilitated by medical units or establishments flying a white flag with a red cross and by marking buildings and transport vehicles with the red cross emblem.

(a)
It follows that if we cannot attack recognizable medical units, establishments, or transports, we should allow them to continue to give treatment to the wounded in their care as long as this is necessary.

(b)
All vehicles employed exclusively on medical transport duty are protected on the field of battle. Medical vehicles being used for both military and medical purposes, such as moving wounded personnel during an evacuation and carrying retreating belligerents as well, are not entitled to protection.

(c)
Medical aircraft, like medical transports, are protected from intentional attack, but with a major difference: they are protected only "while flying at heights, times, and on routes specifically agreed upon between the belligerents concerned." Article 36, GWS. Such agreements may be made for each specific case or may be of a general nature, concluded for the duration of hostilities. If there is no agreement, belligerents use medical aircraft at their own risk and peril.

(d)
The second paragraph of Article 19 imposes an obligation upon belligerents to "ensure that the said medical establishments and units are, as far as possible, situated in such a manner that attacks against military objectives cannot imperil their safety." Hospitals should be sited alone, as far as possible from military objectives. The unintentional bombardment of a medical establishment or unit due to its presence among or in proximity to valid military objectives is not a violation of the GWS. Legal protection is certainly valuable, but it is more valuable still when accompanied by practical safeguards.

(2)
The second protection provided by the GWS pertains to medical units, establishments, materiel, and transports which fall into the hands of the enemy.

(a)
Captured mobile medical unit materiel is to be used first to treat the patients in the captured unit. If there are no patients in the captured unit, or when those who were there have been moved, the materiel is to be used for the treatment of other wounded and sick persons. (See Chapter 6 for additional information on captured enemy equipment.)

(b)
Generally, the buildings, materiel, and stores of fixed medical establishments will continue to be used to treat wounded and sick. However, after provision is made to care for remaining patients, tactical commanders may make other use of them. All distinctive markings must be removed if the buildings are to be used for other than medical purposes.

(c)
The materiel and stores of fixed establishments and mobile medical units are not to be intentionally destroyed, even to prevent them from falling into enemy hands. The actual buildings may in certain extreme cases have to be destroyed for tactical reasons.

(d) Medical transports which fall into enemy hands may be used for any purpose once
C-6
DODDOA-007612
ARTEP 63-006-MTP
arrangements have been made for the medical care of the wounded and sick they contain. The distinctive markings must be removed if they are to be used for nonmedical purposes.
(e)
A medical aircraft is supposed to obey a summons to land for inspection. If it is performing its medical mission, it is supposed to be released to continue its flight. If examination reveals that an act "harmful to the enemy" (that is if the aircraft is carrying munitions, for example) has been committed, it loses the protections of the Convention and may be seized. If a medical aircraft makes an involuntary. landing, all aboard, except the medical personnel, will be prisoners of war. A medical aircraft refusing a summons to land is a fair target.

b.
Identification. The GWS contains several provisions regarding the use of the red cross emblem on medical units, establishments, and transports (the identification of medical personnel has been previously discussed).

(1)
Article 39 of the GWS reads as follows: "Under the direction of the competent military authority, the emblem shall be displayed on the flags, armlets, and on all equipment employed in the Medical Service.

(a)
There is no obligation on a belligerent to mark his units with the emblem. Sometimes a commander (generally no lower than a brigade commander for U.S. forces) may order the camouflage of his medical units in order to conceal the presence or real strength of his forces. The enemy must respect a medical unit if he knows of its presence, even one, which is camouflaged or not marked. The absence of a visible red cross emblem; however, coupled with a lack of knowledge on the part of the enemy as to the unit's protected status, may render that unit's protection valueless.

(b) The distinctive emblem is not a red cross alone; it is a red cross on a white background.
Should there be some good reason; however, why an object protected by the Convention can only be marked with a red cross without a white background, belligerents may not make the fact that it is so marked a pretext for refusing to respect it.
(c)
Some countries use the red crescent on a white background in place of the red cross. This emblem is recognized as an authorized exception under Article 38, GWS. Although not specifically authorized as a symbol in lieu of the red cross, enemies of Israel in past wars have recognized the red Star of David and have afforded it the same respect as the red cross. This showed compliance with the general rule that the wounded and sick must be respected and protected when they are recognized as such, even when not properly marked.

(d)
The initial phrase of Article 39 shows that it is the military commander who controls the emblem and can give or withhold permission to use it. He is at all times responsible for the use made of the emblem and must see that it is not improperly used by the troops or by individuals.

(2)
Article 42 of the GWS specifically addresses the marking of medical units and establishments.

(a)
"The distinctive flag of the Convention shall be hoisted only over such medical units and establishments as are entitled to be respected under the Convention, and only with the consent of the military authorities." Paragraph 1, Article 42, GWS. Although the Convention does not define "the distinctive flag of the Conventions," what is meant is a white flag with a red cross in its center. Also, the word "flag" must be taken in its broadest sense. Hospitals are often marked by one or several red cross emblems painted on the roof. Finally, the military authority must consent to the use of the flag (see the above comments on Article 39) and must ensure that the flag is used only on buildings entitled to protection.

(b) "In mobile units, as in fixed establishments, [the distinctive flag] may be accompanied
C-7
DODDOA-007613
ARTEP 63-006-MTP
by the national flag of the Party to the conflict to which the unit or establishment belongs." Paragraph 2, Article 42, GWS. This provision makes it optional to fly the national flag with the red cross flag. It should be noted that on a battlefield, the national flag is a symbol of belligerency and is therefore likely to provoke attack.
(3) In a NATO conflict, NATO STANAG 2931 provides for camouflage of the Geneva emblem on medical facilities where the lack of camouflage might compromise tactical operations. Medical facilities on land, supporting forces of other nations, will display or camouflage the Geneva emblem in accordance with national regulations and procedures. When failure to camouflage would endanger or compromise tactical operations, the camouflage of medical facilities may be ordered by a NATO commander of at least brigade level or equivalent. Such an order is to be temporary and local in nature and countermanded as soon as the circumstances permit. It is not envisaged that fixed, large, medical facilities would be camouflaged. The Standardization Agreement defines "medical facilities" as "medical units, medical vehicles, and medical aircraft on the ground." (For information on camouflage painting, see AR 750-1.)
NOTE
There is no such thing as a "camouflaged" red cross. When camouflaging a medical unit, either cover up the red cross or take it down. A black cross on an olive drab background is not a symbol recognized under the Geneva Conventions.
(4) Medical evacuation vehicles and medical materiel containers will, unless ordered otherwise, be marked with the Distinctive Emblem (red cross on a white background) and other distinguishing insignia and color markings when required by International STANAGs. (See STANAGs 2027, 2060, and ()STAG 248.)
7. Loss of Protection of Medical Establishments and Units. Medical assets lose their protected status by committing acts "harmful to the enemy," Article 21, GWS. A warning must be given to the offending unit and a reasonable amount of time allowed to cease such activity.
a.
Acts Harmful to the Enemy. The phrase "acts harmful to the enemy" is not defined in the Convention, but should be considered to include acts the purpose or effect of which is to harm the enemy, by facilitating or impeding military operations. Such harmful acts would include, for example, the use of a hospital as a shelter for able-bodied combatants, as an arms or ammunition dump, or as a military observation post. Another instance would be the deliberate siting of a medical unit in a position where it would impede an enemy attack.

b.
Warning and Time Limit. The enemy has to warn the unit to put an end to the harmful acts and must fix a time limit on the conclusion of which he may open fire or attack if the warning has not been complied with. The phrase "in all appropriate cases" recognizes that there might obviously be cases where no time limit could be allowed. A body of troops approaching a hospital and met by heavy fire from every window would return fire without delay.

c.
Use of Smoke and Obscurants. The use of smoke and obscurants during medical evacuation operations does not differ from the use of camouflage and does not constitute an act harmful to the enemy.

8. Conditions Not Depriving Medical Units and Establishments of Protection.
a. Article 22 of the GWS reads as follows: "The following conditions shall not be considered as depriving a medical unit or establishment of the protection guaranteed by Article 19:
(1) That the personnel of the unit or establishment are armed, and that they use the arms in their own defense, or in that of the wounded and sick in their charge.
C-8
DODDOA-007614
ARTEP 63-006-MTP
(2)
That in the absence of armed orderlies, the unit or establishment is protected by a picket or by sentries or by an escort.

(3)
That small arms and ammunition taken from the wounded and sick and not yet handed to the proper service, are found in the unit or establishment.

(4)
That personnel and materiel of the veterinary service are found in the unit or establishment, without forming an integral part thereof.

(5)
That the humanitarian activities of medical units and establishments or of their personnel extend to the care of civilian wounded or sick."

b.
These five conditions are not to be regarded as acts harmful to the enemy. These are particular cases where a medical unit retains its character as such, and its right to immunity, in spite of certain appearances, which might have led to the contrary, conclusion or, at least, created some doubt.

(1)
Defense of medical units and self-defense by medical personnel. A medical unit is granted a privileged status under the laws of war. This status is based on the view that medical personnel are not combatants and that their role in the combat area is exclusively a humanitarian one. In recognition of the necessity of self-defense; however, medical personnel may be armed for their own defense or for the protection of the wounded and sick under their charge. To retain this privileged status, they must refrain from all aggressive action, and may only employ their weapons if attacked in violation of the Convention. They may not employ arms against enemy forces acting in conformity with the law of war and may not use force to prevent the capture of their unit by the enemy (it is, on the other hand, perfectly legitimate for a medical unit to withdraw in the face of the enemy). Medical personnel who use their arms in circumstances not justified by the law of war expose themselves to penalties for violation of the law of war and, provided they have been given due warning to cease such acts, may also forfeit the protection of the medical unit or establishment which they are protecting.

(a)
Medical personnel may carry only small arms, such as rifles or pistols or authorized substitutes. AR 71-32 provides the policy that governs the small arms medical personnel are authorized to carry. AR 350-41 also supports this policy. It states "AMEDD personnel and non-AMEDD personnel in medical units will not be required to train or qualify with weapons other than individual or small arms weapons. However, AMEDD personnel attending training at NCOES [noncommissioned officer education system] courses will receive weapons instruction that is part of the curriculum. This will ensure that successful completion of the course is not jeopardized by failure to attend the weapons training portion of the curriculum."

(b)
The presence of machine guns, grenade launchers, booby traps, hand grenades, light antitank weapons, or mines (regardless of the method by which they are detonated) in or around a medical unit or establishment would seriously jeopardize its entitlement to privileged status under the GWS. The deliberate arming of a medical unit with such items could constitute an act harmful to the • enemy and cause the medical unit to lose its protection, regardless of the location of the medical unit. See the previous discussion of loss of protection of medical units and establishments.

(2)
Guarding of medical units. As a rule, a medical unit is to be guarded by its own personnel. However, it will not lose its protected status if the guard is performed by a number of armed soldiers. The military guard attached to a medical unit may use its weapons, just as armed medical personnel may, to ensure the protection of the unit. But, as in the case of medical personnel, the soldiers may only act in a purely defensive manner, and may not oppose the occupation or control of the unit by an enemy who is respecting the unit's privileged status. The status of such soldiers is that of ordinary members of the armed forces. The mere fact of their presence with a medical unit will shelter them from attack. In case of capture, they will be prisoners of war.

C-9
DODDOA-007615
ARTEP 63-006-MTP

(3)
Arms and ammunition taken from the wounded. Wounded arriving in a medical unit may still be in possession of small arms and ammunition, which will be taken from them and handed to authorities outside the medical unit. Should a unit be captured by the enemy before it is able to get rid of these arms, their presence is not of itself cause for denying the protection to be accorded the medical unit under the GWS.

(4)
Personnel and materiel of the veterinary corps. The presence of personnel and materiel of the veterinary corps with a medical unit is authorized, even where they do not form an integral part of such unit.

(5)
Care of civilian wounded or sick. A medical unit or establishment protected by the GWS may take in civilians as well as military wounded and sick without jeopardizing its privileged status. This clause merely sanctions what is actually done in practice.

9. 1977 Protocols to The Geneva Conventions. Amendments to The Geneva Conventions have been ratified by some of our allies and potential adversaries. The U.S. representative to the diplomatic conference signed these amendments, but they have not been officially ratified by our government.
