Drill Training Package for Dismounted Infantry Squads
Abstract
ARI designed the Drill Training Package in response to a CSofA policy directive in 1980 to standardize training for small units (such as the rifle squad) through programs which integrated individual and collective training. Working with the Army Training Board as project sponsor, ARI developed a small- unit training program featuring: squad and platoon drills to be executed in response to enemy threat or leader order; standardized training procedures and conditions; explicitly integrated individual (Soldier's Manual) and unit collective (ARTEP) training; enhanced realism and validity of tactical training through the use of the Multiple Integrated Laser Engagement System (MIELS); step-by-step guides including task, conditions, standards and coaching points for use by the trainer in preparing for and executing the training in the field. The Drill Training Package for Dismounted Infantry Squads consists of (a) this document, containing the Drill Training Management Guide and detailed Drill Trainer's Guides for the trainer's use in garrison for planning and preparing for training, and (b) under separate cover, the pocket-sized Drill Training and Evaluation Guidebook for use in the field. The Drill Training Management Guide introduces the trainer to the concept and advantages of Drill training, provides Drill training roadmaps and crosswalks to Soldier's Manual tasks and ARTEP missions along with guidance on training management, and leads the trainer through the steps in planning and preparing for training.
