PREFACE
APRIL 1991
Almost everyone agrees that rehearsals enhance battlefield success. Unfortunately, not everyone agrees on what an effective rehearsal is. Consequently, units regularly fail to conduct effective rehearsals during home-station training, on exercises or at the Combat Training Centers (CTCs). Often the units that felt they conducted effective rehearsals actually failed in their missions.
Battlefield rehearsals appear at first to be complex. But once practiced, they are simple. Most units wait until arrival at a CTC to earnestly begin rehearsing with all players present.
This newsletter provides combat-relevant lessons to both Light and Heavy forces. These lessons are derived primarily from long-term issues and observations stored in the Army Lessons Learned Management Information System (ALLMIS). The observations were taken from all of the CTCs: the National Training Center (NTC), Fort Irwin, CA; the Joint Readiness Training Center (JRTC), Fort Chaffee, AR; and the Combat Maneuver Training Center (CMTC), Hohenfels, GE.
This newsletter also contains lessons from JUST CAUSE through our execution of the Center for Army Lessons Learned (CALL)'s Wartime Army Lessons Learned Program (WALLP).

These tactics, techniques and procedures (TTPs) are provided for your use and dissemination. If your unit has identified any other combat-relevant lessons, please share them with the rest of the U.S. Army by contacting CALL at AV 552-2132/4455.
