Resistance-Related Mission Essential Tasks Implementation in Latvia Armed Forces Soldiers Training

Abstract

The Republic of Latvia's 13 January 2020 National Security Law obligates the National Armed Forces to lead the whole-of-society resistance movement in crisis and wartime. Latvian Training and Doctrine Command's schools did not train the resistance movement-related mission essential tasks until the 2019. The purpose of the MMAS thesis is to find the individual and collective resistance movement related mission-essential tasks for implementation into the TRADOC education programs. The paper determines the suggested proportion of the effort NAF TRADOC schools should devote to resistance-related tasks during training. Qualitative research includes a study of the Latvian national resistance movement against Nazi and Soviet occupation, the USSR's and the Russian Federation's counterinsurgency doctrines studies, and US Army Unconventional Warfare Training Circulars, Resistance Operating Concept, and other document studies to develop MMAS thesis.
