Ma'am:
Talking to my boss, C01111113the USAREUR Chief of Ops, he vastly prefers the CONUS option. There is simply not six days to spare in the MRX timeline to conduct the MTT training. The KFOR 6A MP's need to come into the USAREUR AO with this training so they are ready to conduct the detention ops situational training that is being built into the scenario.

Talked with USAMPS today about this. Can ask DA to task them to support stateside (unknown if they
have the assets) or could see if 1A can conduct stateside or have CMTC conduct the training using the
USAMPS developed TSP. Which option do you want to pursue?

Ma'am:
We, as USAREUR, want CONUS to train up incoming Balkans units on detention facility operations, as the white paper recommends. If possible we want this to include KFOR 6A. It is probably possible to train KFOR 6A units at the upcoming MRX if absolutely necessary, but time is already tight there for the MP and Infantry training scheduled, would prefer that the training is done stateside. Can you advise on possiblilty of including USAMPS training in the post-mob training?

We need you to decide if it applies ... its our list for OIF. If USAREUR validates/requires it for the Blakans we'll implement - but need to know ASAP as time is short .. may have to be trained in Europe. Your thoughts?

Thanks for the prompt response! Just to confirm, this task list applies to the Balkans, to include the 40th ID deploying as KFOR 6A?

Subje : Balkans Pre-deployment Detention TRaining Requirements
Ma'am:
Attached below is the tasker our Commanding General, GEN Bell wants answered. He wants detention facility operations included into Balkans pre-deployment training. We intend on adding detention scenarios to the MRX in Hohenfels Training Area, but the CG is also interested in what CONUS is doing post-mobilization to train units before they cross the ocean. Thanks for your help in this.
Very Respectfully,
