RSOI/Foal Eagle
Reception, Staging, Onward movement, and Integration (RSOI) is a ROK-US Combined Forces Command (CFC), ROK government, simulation driven, OPLAN-oriented command post exercise (CPX) conducted annually along with exercise Foal Eagle (FE). Foal Eagle counter-infiltration exercises are large combined annual field training exercises for U.S. and ROK forces. FE is the Combined Forces' Command's primary FTX.
In 2001, RSOI combined with exercise Foal Eagle. Prior to 2001, RSOI and FE were conducted separately, and while both exercises independently met training objectives, analysis indicated linking the two could provide better opportunity to train all Combined Forces Command (CFC) echelons. Linking the two provided opportunity for leader mentoring at all levels, reduced operational tempo for CFC forces and cost savings, according to exercise planners.
