The Brigade Engineer

Abstract

This article compares the increased engineer cell duties for brigade combat teams (BCTs) conducting operations at Forward Operating Base (FOB) Fenty, Afghanistan, to engineer duties at Fort Carson, Colorado, and the Joint Readiness Training Center (JRTC) at Fort Polk, Louisiana. It also presents lessons learned for brigade engineers and units deploying to Afghanistan. It is not a manning discussion, nor does it propose manning adjustments.
