UEx Space Support Element Enhancements to Phase I and Phase II Operations
Abstract
Since August 2004, Army Space Support Elements (SSEs) have been providing Space support in garrison to their respective Unit of Employment x (UEx) headquarters and subordinate units, by comprehensively integrating and coordinating Space capabilities into Phase I and Phase II planning, training and operations. As of May 2005, the Army has four Active Component SSEs, one of which is currently deployed with the 3rd Infantry Division (3ID) in Iraq. The other three SSEs (10th Mountain Division, 101st Airborne Division and 4th Infantry Division) will deploy within the next year. The training and integration requirements for each of these UEx headquarters, as they prepare for combat, has involved each SSE with the planning, integration and coordination of Space support throughout their staff sections. These garrison Space support efforts are ensuring that each UEx headquarters and their subordinate units will deploy with a significantly enhanced ability to fully access and exploit all available Space capabilities. The following real-world examples describe how these SSEs have supported their staff sections in their collective effort to fully integrate Space capabilities for enhanced combat readiness.
