Development of the COBRAS III Performance Objectives for the Brigade and Battalion Staff Exercise.

Abstract

This research and development effort, called Combined Arms Operations at Brigade Level, Realistically Achieved Through Simulation III (COBRAS III), designed simulation-based, structured training for the staffs of the conventionally/ equipped brigade combat team (Ba). The effort included designing a progressive approach to presenting and utilizing training objectives. The resulting product was a set of "performance objectives" that provides techniques and procedures for command and staff performance. The performance objectives resulted from and support the purpose of the training, which is to facilitate BCT preparation for combat training center rotations and deployment. The performance objective concept was an extension of the task analysis work conducted during the two preceding projects - COBRAS I and COBRAS II.
