Starting this month we will start having a duty platoon each month. The reasonability of the duty platoon is not only…
We are entering into a time of severe constraints where Army and government officials are working tirelessly to mitigate these constraints and still remain a credible force. The two biggest constraints we will forever be dealing with are time and money: money more so for the active component to fund training, new equipment, and current operation around the world. As for the reserve component money will always be an issue just as is with our active counterparts , but finding the time to conduct relevant training to stay a viable credibly force that is able to accomplish any mission we are tasked with whether it be at home or abroad.…
Currently, the unit manning document (UMD) is sufficient. However, the document does not account for personnel that are deployed, TDY, or on leave. We recently scrubbed this UMD due to a mandatory Reduction in Force; we are expecting a new document sometime in CY16. Our current manning for the Communications Element is 20 funded/authorized with 20 assigned. The issue we are addressing in this 100-day strategic plan is reducing the trouble-ticket processing time. This issue is not considered a manning issue at this time. We need to streamline processes to prevent members from being overtasked as our overall workload is increasing as the Wing grows.…
During my first quarter my mission is to coordinate with RCCCs at RCT active duty installations in order to increase the number of soldiers who select appointment into the New Jersey Army National Guard after completing their active duty obligations. I place my emphasis on potential MSO reductions by 1 year or more, as well as the 2 year stabilization policy available to soldiers who are transitioning off of active duty into the Reserve Component. Other events that take place during the first quarter of the FY are briefing the RSP Soldiers on the Warrant Officer Program and visiting the Universities to speak with the MS III’s and IV’s for possible aviators.…
The ongoing draw-down of active duty Army will affect captains and majors.

Majors in year groups 1999 through 2003 future will be decided by the OSB beginning in April 2014. Selected officers are notified already of their eligibility for the OSB. Officers selected for OSB for separation,…
According to the Army 2014 Army Strategic Planning Guidance, the Army will focus on five strategic priorities to meet the Nation’s strategic imperatives. Although all of these priorities are significant, the strategic priority “A Ready and Modern Army” is the most important because it directly impacts the Army’s ability to respond when called upon. “A Ready and Modern Army” strategic priority affects the Army’s personnel, equipment, supplies, and training. One thing is non-negotiable: Americans expect and trust that their Army is properly trained and deployment ready at any given time.…

General Ray Odierno, the Army chief of staff, said the drawdown would begin this year and take place mainly through the next decade. “It would include withdrawal of two heavy infantry brigades from Europe, one in 2013 and another in 2014, both of which would be removed from the force rather than relocating to the United States (Alexander, 2012).” The army has stated that it might cut as many as 8 or more Brigade Combat Teams. The Army's final numbers will go from 570,000 troops in 2010 to 490,000 troops by the end of 2017. As part of this reduction, the Army would no longer be conducting large scale…

It consists of four basic principles: Plan, Prepare, Execute, and Assess. “The Army’s operations process provides a common framework for guiding commanders as they lead and manage unit training and leader development. Effective unit training results from a sound analysis of the unit’s mission and its ability to accomplish that mission. The higher unit’s mission, the unit mission essential task list (METL), and higher commander’s guidance drive the commander’s selection of collective tasks on which the unit trains to accomplish mission success.” (ADRP 7-0, 19). It is imperative for Army leaders to use the four principles to guide their unit in training and mission execution. They are there to support and define the needs of the unit and the Commander’s intent so there is no question on what should happen. Soldiers are given steps to follow so they can smoothly perform actions required of them. The principles also give NCO’s access to their higher echelons and help them decide how to lead their lower enlisted soldiers. They are essentially a blueprint that shows leaders and soldiers what to do and when to do it, so that all leadership has clear communication and understanding of each…
