Unit Replacement System Analysis Infantry/Field Artillery/Armor (URSA IN/FA/AR).
Abstract
In an effort to enhance the combat effectiveness of its units, the Army is developing and implementing a manning system which keeps soldiers together longer units. The New Manning System (NMS) accomplishes this through two subsystems; the COHORT Unit Movement System and the U.S. Army Regimental System. The COHORT Unit Movement System fills personnel requirements in OCONUS combat arms units by the scheduled deployment of combat arms battalions on a programmed rotation or replacement cycle between CONUS and OCONUS. Concurrently, the U.S. Army Regimental System groups these units into regiments for the purpose of allowing recurring assignments to the same units and locations over the length of a soldier's career. The purpose of this study is to assess the sustainability of the NM's COHORT Battalion Movement Plan for infantry, field artillery, and armor units operating within the U.S. Army Regimental System.
