A Rapid Train-Up Program for M60A3 Armor Force Mobilization or Reconstitution

Abstract

Research was conducted to develop a rapid train-up program for M60A3 Armor Force mobilization or reconstitution. The training products developed consist of a set of training modules for use in preparing tank commanders, gunners, drivers, and loaders for combat; a Trainer's Guide that provides the trainer with 'how to train' information; and a Training Manager's Guide that tells the company commander how to manage the rapid train-up program. Also, these training materials can be used to train non-armor personnel as a tank loader, sustainment-train armor crewmen in their duty position, and to cross- train them in other duty positions. Keywords: Armor training, Tank Crew Training, sustainment training, Training Management.
