Mission Training Complex Sites Enabling Home Station Education

Abstract

One of the most valuable training resources you may not have heard of is the Mission Training Complex, otherwise known as an MTC. The Army has 32 MTC s across the globe to support Home Station Training. When I attended the Intermediate Level Education at Fort Leavenworth, my class was often provided opportunities to meet with senior military leaders. While the discussions always had something for your kitbag, I was shocked at the running theme in each of these events. Senior officers with 10-15+ years of seniority were of the opinion that junior officers who only knew an Army at war, didn t know how to train. Really? With my BN S3 and XO days long behind me, certainly there are things I wish our team could have done better. We developed training plans, and strove to constantly improve them. The plans worked, and we were a success.
