Special Information:

ENVIRONMENTAL: AR 200-1 delineates TRADOC responsibilities to integrate environmental requirements across DTLOMPF and ensure all training procedures, training manuals, and training doctrine include sound environmental practices and considerations. The Army's environmental vision is to be a national leader in environmental and natural resource stewardship for present and future generations as an integral part of all Army missions. This Program of Instruction meets this standard.

CONTEMPORARY OPERATING ENVIRONMENT: The learning objectives in Army training must comply with current Joint, Army, and Branch doctrine regarding the Contemporary Operational Environment (COE) and Opposing Force (OPFOR) scenarios. This program of instruction addresses this principle and incorporates current doctrine and lessons learned at the appropriate level, divesting of obsolescence, and implementing full spectrum operations in the COE in classrooms and training exercises.

LESSONS LEARNED. Competent leaders must understand and apply the techniques and procedures that produce the best possible performance. The Center for Army Lessons Learned (CALL) collects and analyzes data from a variety of current and historical sources, including Army operations and training events, and produces lessons for military commanders, staff, and students. The Transportation School draws upon the CALL resource as well as from experienced staff and faculty to inculcate the most recent operational and COE lessons learned, particularly those lessons related to the Global War on Terrorism (GWOT) and survival on the battlefield, into resident and non-resident training materials.

This Program of Instructions (POI) complies with this objective.

(1) The School Commandant at the Army Training Center has the authority to organize, reorganize, and structure POI train in lessons within each module to provide a logical sequence based on location, facilities, equipment, resources, or other contingencies, which might impact, upon course presentation. All tasks/lessons will be trained to job performance standards.

(2) Trainees will work up to wearing MOPP level 4 equipment for at least four (4) consecutive hours while performing MOS tasks. Health and Safety considerations pertaining to NBC training are contained in FM 3-100, FM 21-10, and TB MED 507. Weather conditions and Wet Bulb Globe Temperature (WGBT) readings may affect MOPP-4 wear. On a case-by-case basis, Army Training Center commanders may modify the consecutive wearing requirements to two (2) hours. The ITR will be annotated to show the number of hours of continuous wear of MOPP-4 equipment. During periods of warm weather, training time on MOPP-4 may be reduced. FM 3-4 contains performance degradation data that is helpful in making this determination.

MEDICAL SUPPORT TO TRAINING: Installation commanders and school commandants will assess and certify the adequacy of medical support to training at least annually. This responsibility is not delegable. Installation commanders and school commandants conducting high-risk training shall rehearse their medical support (casualty response, evacuation, and treatment) plan at least annually, focused on responding to a training catastrophe. This instruction complies with the intent of the Army's Medical Support to training policy.
