TOPIC: Situational Training Considerations

DISCUSSION: Units will encounter situations that they normally don't train for. These situations will present challenges to the leaders and generate confusion and stress for soldiers to deal with. Each unit should develop a training program to familiarize soldiers with anticipated problems they might encounter. These situational exercises can easily turn into battle drills for each unit. Some examples are:

  • Receive appeal for medical assistance
  • Civilian criminal is apprehended
  • Crowd mobs food distribution truck/center
  • Land mine is discovered
  • Dead body is found
  • Non Governmental Organizations (NGO) individual requests medical treatment
  • NGO individual requests transportation on military vehicle

LESSON(S): Develop situational training exercises to prepare soldiers for unexpected problems/dilemmas. The unit commander must prepare the proper responses for their soldiers. These responses are a method to express the commander s intent for the operation. Turn the responses into battle drills so that unexpected situations become routine operations for the soldier.
