Afghanistan BDOC Rotation Preparation

Abstract

This paper details the difficulties encountered in organizing, integrating, training, and equipping a unit composed of Special Forces and support personnel. The widely divergent levels of experience, training, and motivation between these two groups of soldiers causes professional, administrative, and logistical difficulties which unit leaders must plan for and overcome. This paper explores the methods and techniques used to overcome these inherent difficulties during the train-up phase for a combat deployment to Afghanistan.
