Mission-Based Analyses of Armor Training Requirements. Volume 3. Leadership Tasks Performed During Tank Platoon Operations

Abstract

A detailed analysis was conducted of armor operations to provide the basis for developing a set of platoon drills for combined individual and collective armor training. The analysis provided information on the stages of armor operations, the individual and collective tasks that are performed during each stage, training objectives for these tasks, leadership tasks that are performed during each stage, and the types of factors that affect armor operations during combat. An analysis or armor operations was conducted to identify, classify, and interrelate the activities performed during tank platoon missions. Volume III of this report contains lists of leadership tasks performed by platoon leaders, platoon sergeants, and tank commanders during the tank platoon operations identified in the analysis. Keywords: Platoon Operations; Armor Missions; Tank Team; Platoon Leader; Leadership; Collective Training; Tank Commander; Mission Analysis.
