US Army TRADOC’s Post

So what happened to all the CS / CSS Officers that served in the Modular Brigades and Battalions? Did they make the jump to Space and Cyber Commands? Why isn’t the Field Artillery community impacted? Why is it voluntary? If the filling of these positions are important why aren’t they boarded and selected based on needs of the Army, unless the Army just needs butts in seats. https://lnkd.in/e86zfbU5

I value social media as a platform for learning and evolving from other nations. All the events mentioned by this CO are also regularly replicated here, especially during career courses. I particularly appreciate the Bayonet practice, especially when it takes place in an urban environment and is based around an assault course. It's important that we never stop learning and practicing drills in the infantry.

The attached article is a 55th posting of an extension by the author of the leadership vignette series published by the Royal Military College Club then the Royal Military Colleges of Canada Alumni Association in the Club’s and Association’s “e-Veritas” publication from 21 August 2016 to 15 November 2021. The initial series and four preceding articles would ultimately consist of 195 articles and vignettes. The extension is made by permission of the current "e-Veritas" editor and compliments a reprise of the previously published and Linkedin posted "e-Veritas" leadership vignette series that, due to server issues, was reposted in PDF form on Linkedin starting at the end of 2021. The original series is again partially available at the Royal Military Colleges Alumni Association's website at the "e-Veritas" section in the reconstituted archive of issues section. All 195 articles/vignettes and following extension articles are available as PDFs at https://lnkd.in/eqHzjDfh. The article at attached developed from an earlier post remembering the contribution a detachment of soldiers from the 3rd Battalion, 7th Infantry made to the developing post-Vietnam U.S. Army modernization and reorganization that began in the in the mid-1970s and lasted into the 1980s. The detachment supported the Army's Operational Test and Evaluations Agency's (OTEA) Developmental/Operational Test 1 for three squad automatic weapon candidates in Spring and Summer 1974. The test was administered by a test team of the U.S. Army Infantry Board led by Major John Spencer. The detachment's mission and aspects of the test presented some unique leadership challenges and test requirements with some valuable lessons learned. For the soldiers it was long hot work during a Central Georgia summer. #Leadership #Leadershipdevelopment #Training #Trainingdevelopments #historymatters #Army #Military #Innovation #Management #Nationalguard #Humanresourcemanagement #Infantry #Infantryschool #Armor #Armorcenter #ArmyROTC #Armynationalguard #Armyreserve #Marinecorps #Fieldartillery #Airdefenseartillery #Veterantransition #Stateparks #Ranger #occupationalsafetyhealthcompliance #UConn #umassamherst

The lastest edition of the “Danger Reach”. Read about six key topics from leaders in 1st Infantry Division.

**Support Your Local Infantry Lieutenant: They Need You** In the heart of our military operations, there's a group often overlooked, facing challenges that test their mettle daily. These are our Infantry Lieutenants – the brave, young leaders who stand at the forefront of our nation's defense. Many of these Lieutenants are fresh out of training, thrust into the rigors of leadership with minimal experience. They are responsible for the lives of their soldiers, making split-second decisions under immense pressure. The weight on their shoulders is immense, and their journey is fraught with countless hurdles. Yet, these Lieutenants persevere. They lead with unwavering courage, often putting their troops' needs above their own. They navigate the chaos of the battlefield, ensuring the mission's success while safeguarding their soldiers' well-being. But they can't do it alone. These brave men and women need our support – emotionally, mentally, and materially. They need mentors to guide them, communities to stand by them, and resources to help them grow into the leaders they are destined to be. By supporting an Infantry Lieutenant, you are investing in the backbone of our military. You are ensuring that the next generation of leaders has the strength, resilience, and knowledge to protect our freedoms. Let's come together to lift up these unsung heroes. Reach out, lend a hand, and show them that we stand behind them, just as they stand on the front lines for us. Your support can make all the difference. Stay caffeinated Aerial Resupply Coffee®

U.S. Army paratroopers have a lot to think about after exiting the airplane, including how to protect the HMS Manpack radios inside their rucksacks when they hit the ground. That's not all - those rucksacks must provide easy access to these modernized radios, be configured to help balance equipment weight, dissipate heat, and be as comfortable as possible for Soldiers to conduct their missions. Following competitive market research under PdM HMS, a rucksack redesign by Soldier Systems Center Natick, and successful realistic combat testing by the U.S. Army Test and Evaluation Command's Yuma Test Center, the new and improved Radio Carrier Rucksack (RCR) will be fielded to units receiving Manpacks next year.
