  1. WARRIOR FORGE 2010 Common Training Scenario Concept Brief Shift from Palomas to Caucasus Region UNCLASSIFIED For Training Purpose Only in Cadet Command

  2. PURPOSE To gain approval of concept that will shift the WARRIOR FORGE Road to War from Cadet Command internal scenario (Palomas) to the TRADOC directed Common Training Scenario (Caucasus Region).

  3. BACKGROUND • CTSs were developed in response to OES transformation initiatives set forth by the CSA during 2003. Were designed to meet leader development needs of institutional training and education systems within the Army. • Work on the initial CTS began in June 2004 with Battle Command Training and Integration Division, Collective Training Directorate (BCTID, CTD) providing final delivery for CTS I in October 2005 • Primary purpose of the CTSs is to provide overarching education/training products for use across the entire Army education system. CTSs have a sister product, the Battle Command System of Systems Integration Training Support Packages, that are available to units for use in their battle command/battle staff training programs. CTSs will be used to instill within Army leaders a capability for planning and coordinating simultaneous and full spectrum operations in a Joint decisive action setting within the contemporary operational environment (COE). • CTS concept is a TRADOC Higher Headquarters Initiative (HHI) providing a TRADOC Intelligence Support Activity (TRISA) approved COE in two scenarios. CTS I is full spectrum operations (FSO) in the Caspian Sea Region. CTS II is stability/COIN operations in a South West Asia (SWA) Iraq/Afghanistan environment. Both scenarios incorporate the integration of light and heavy modular forces as part of a joint expeditionary capable force.

  5. RECOMMENDATION Cadet Command approve concept of using Caspian Sea CTS (Caucasus Region) as the RTW for Warrior Forge 2010.

  6. CTS CHARACTERISTICS • Institutional focus, incorporates aspects of Army transformation, emerging force structure, concepts of modularity and expeditionary force employment • Supports operational and tactical levels of conflict • Scenario based with full-spectrum /simultaneous operations; phased operation allows WF to focus on Stability Operations while maintaining current emphasis of small-unit tactics and leadership ICW FM 3-21.8 and FM 6-22. • Meets the needs of institutional training for a common scenario to nest efforts of BOLC-A CC training with OES, NCOES, and WOES and future Army transformation • Includes variables/types of units that enables us to work a COE into training/assessments without making fundamental shifts of training and guidance on campus • Maintains ability to train Cadets in Cultural Awareness and Ethics/Values in a tactical environment • Adheres to current Army and Joint doctrine; TRADOC guidance to move towards approved CTS

  23. CAUCASUS REGION CULTURE The following information on the culture of Atropia/Ariana is for situational awareness and understanding. These cultural nuances are merely another tool to help Soldiers make decisions in the COE. These suggestions are intended solely as guidance to help assist the units in executing their directed missions.They are not an attempt to undermine or substitute for SOPs, ROE, or Commander’s Guidance. • Primary language is Spanish but many in region speak some English • Primary religion in the region is Shi’a Muslim • GESTURES • Culture based upon loyalty to family, clan, tribe, and region before loyalty to nation • Old age is respected and honored; emphasis on obeying elders • Sense of time is casual and fluid; negotiations are normally slow and extended • No concept of personal space; there is no “3 foot American bubble” • Don’t move away if an Atropian “invades your space” • Public Display of Affection common between same sexes is accepted and often expected • Honor most important virtue: external public perception of honor • Never criticize in public • Hospitality closely linked to honor – refusal is an insult

  24. CAUCASUS REGION CULTURE • GESTURES • “Losing” not “Retreating” is considered a shame; will often retreat in order to avoid shame and “live to fight another day” • Don’t engage women socially • Don’t shake a female’s hand unless she offers it first • Women are the custodians of family honor; rude to inquire about a female member of their family; Don’t look, touch or ask • Don’t blatantly cross your legs • Don’t show bottoms of your feet; means that you think person is lower than dirt • Shame equals humiliation; difficult to say ‘no’ to a request because it is impolite; may intentionally mislead instead; “Yes” may mean I understand and not “I agree” • Don’t use finger or hand gestures • Non-verbal signals or body language are a large part of communication in region; Certain gestures, while common in U.S., may be offensive and essentially disrupt message you are intending to convey • The “okay” sign of thumbs up is actually a form of a local curse • Sense of time is much more casual than the American sense of time; Americans are very time-conscious and punctuality is important; However, Atropian culture is more relaxed in its view of time.
