Organized by the Battlefield Operating System (BOS), the trends reflect both Positive Performance and Needs Emphasis observations based on quarterly assessment. Trends and TTPs from NTC's Leader Training Program (LTP) and senior NCOs are included when available.

HOW DO I USE THIS DOCUMENT?

The trends are organized by BOS. The name of the applicable BOS is indicated at the bottom of each page as a reference.

Given in parenthesis at the beginning of each observation is the branch focus of the O/C team that submitted the observation to CALL (i.e., armor, mech, avn, engr, etc.).

BOS "index" codes are annotated throughout the document. These codes are based on the battlefield structure and definitions presented in TRADOC Pam 11-9, Blueprint of the Battlefield. The blueprint provides a common structure of the functions performed by the Army. It serves as a common reference system for analyzing and integrating operations at the strategic, operational and tactical levels of war. The observations and trends in this publication are at the tactical level. In "TA.5", for example, the TA refers to the tactical level of war; the number "5" is the Intelligence BOS number.
