## Chapter 1 Overview

To successfully conduct Mission Command in any operational environment (OE), crews must be technically competent and tactically proficient in the employment of their Mission Command Information Systems (MCIS). Soldiers must develop and sustain technical skills that allow them to quickly process and share information throughout the command post, and to both higher and lower echelon units. This combination of technical skill training is essential for shared situational understanding. TC 6-0.1 provides a systematic method to train MCIS proficiency for crews of all MCIS platforms located in battalion and above echelon Tactical Operations Centers (TOC). It includes an evaluation of digital systems skills during the individual and crew training tables and the application of those skills. It defines the minimum crew proficiency prior to progressing to the next gate within the training strategy. TC 6-0.1 provides the planning, preparation, and requirements for all crew training, and culminates in the Command Post Mission Command Validation Exercise (MCVE).

## Section I - Purpose

1-1. TC 6-0.1 assists the commander in producing qualified digital crews using a standardized, holistic, and comprehensive training model. With the shift from an organization-centric model to a holistic model, digital weapon system proficiency and integrated strategies for all Mission Command Information Systems are standardized and synchronized to provide a progressive and gated training regimen. 1-2. The digital mission command execution principles in this publication are designed to support all digital mission command systems in the information sharing process. They allow the commander the flexibility to develop his staff and unit training program based on the operating environment (OE) that coincides with the unit mission. Significant Activities (SIGACTS) and Events are developed and based on the unit's projected OE and mission. 1-3. TC 6-0.1 describes the crew training program, digital range operations, range requirements and scenario development, and the fundamental crew tables including the qualification standards for the MCIS. When the procedures in this manual conflict with the procedures in the technical manual (TM), the procedures in the appropriate TM should be followed. 1-4. TC 6-0.1 is intended to guide units through their unit training plan (UTP) development and execution. Units must evaluate training to make sure it adheres to sound training policy and provides the unit commander with a viable assessment tool at the completion of each training event. When commanders wish to alter training resources beyond those authorized, the unit is responsible for securing and managing those training resources.

## Section Ii - Scope

1-5. TC 6-0.1 is designed specifically for the training of staff sections in battalion and above organizations. ADRP 3-90, Offense and Defense, states "a crew consists of all personnel operating a particular system." The term
"crew" used within this manual relates to any MCIS, which is manned by a single or multiple Soldiers, across various shifts, to effectively employ that platform. 1-6. The MCISs provide capabilities for situational awareness, planning, and collaboration, hosted on a single laptop called the Mission Command Workstation. With the introduction of the Command Post Computing Environment/Common Operating Environment (CPCE/COE) strategy, you can access data from other Mission Command systems through Mission Command WorkStation / Command Post of the Future (MCWS/CPOF) web services or through co-hosting on the Mission Command Workstation. Command Web allows for similar capabilities through a web-based solution. As key leaders, it is essential that you understand these assets, their usages, and how best to achieve and maintain optimal situational awareness.


Echelons Above Corps Command and Control: Global Command and Control System-Army/Joint
Command and Control (EAC C2: GCCS-A/JC2). Global Command and Control SystemArmy
(GCCSA) is the Army's strategic, theater and tactical command, control, communications (C3)
system. It provides a seamless link of operational information and critical data from the strategic Global
Command and Control SystemJoint (GCCSJ) to Army theater elements and below. GCCSA assists
in mission planning, deployment support, operations in theater and redeployment. It provides a common picture of Army tactical operations to the joint and coalition communities and delivers joint asset visibility to the Army to facilitate operations. GCCSA is the Commander's battle command asset for force planning and projection, readiness and situational awareness, and is the system of record for
theater Army headquarters worldwide.

Joint Command and Control (JC2) is the DoD's principal Joint C2 capability that will be focused on
providing the Commander and the Soldier with the data and information support infrastructure required to make timely, effective, and informed decisions. The capability will evolve the GCCS Family of Systems by improving existing functionality and adding new C2 capabilities to the current GCCS programs. Joint C2 is a jointly developed capability.

Joint Battle Command - Platform (JBC-P) is the next generation of JBCP/BFT. It will provide jointcentric on-the-move, digital C2 and Situational Awareness (SA) to tactical combat, combat support
and combat service support leaders and Soldiers. JBC-P is the primary provider and user of digital SA across the full spectrum of operations. It allows Soldiers to pass orders and graphics to visualize the
Commander's intent and scheme of maneuver. JBC-P is a key component of the Army and Marine
Corps Mission Command Systems.

Tactical Ground Reporting (TIGR) is an information management system designed for the lowest tactical level leaders supporting small unit mission planning, rehearsal, execution, IPB, and after-action review operating disconnected or in a shared secure low bandwidth tactical network environment.

Air Defense: Air and Missile Defense Workstation (AMDWS) is the backbone of Army air defense.
AMDWS integrates Air Defense fire units, sensors and C2 centers, into a system capable of defeating/denying the low altitude aerial threat.  The AMDWS provides collection, storage, processing, display, and dissemination of critical, time-sensitive situational awareness (air and ground) and battle
command information throughout the Air Defense Artillery (ADA) battalion, and between other ADA,
Army, Joint and Combined elements.

Airspace: Tactical Airspace Integration System (TAIS) is a mobile communications and digitized operational environment automated system for airspace management. TAIS is employed in any theater of operations and is the Army system to meet both Army Airspace Command and Control (A2C2) and
Air Traffic Services (ATS) requirements. TAIS allows for real-time synchronization of artillery and other indirect fires and Close Air Support (CAS). It also allows for real-time synchronization of ADA
systems to allow for the tightest coverage for ground units possible without endangering friendly air assets.


Maneuver: Tactical Mission Command (TMC) is a suite of products that provides Army and Joint
Community Commanders and their staff a human-centered collaborative capability with integrated Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP), a user-defined common operational picture (COP) and real-time situational awareness. In addition, the capability includes a Tactical Web Portal using Microsoft SharePoint to support Mission Staff functions. TMC supports Army Mission Command System interoperability, data management, and enterprise services that include e-mail, Active Directory, security, data backup and failover capabilities. CPOF is the Army's primary Command and Control system that allows Commanders and their staff the ability to achieve enhanced operational effectiveness by enabling broad human collaboration. Command Web thin-client is a standardized operating environment that provides visualization, collaboration and planning capabilities to the
Soldier. It allows for exposure of tactical data to include air space management, logistics, fires and enemy and friendly data. Command Web is expected to reduce the hardware footprint, and increase sustainability and better efficiency for the Army.

Fire Support: Advanced Field Artillery Tactical Data Systems (AFATDS) is an automated FSC2 system that processes, analyzes, and exchanges combat information among the U.S. Army, U.S.
Marine Corps and other Joint architectures. AFATDS provides fully automated support for planning, coordinating, controlling, and executing fires and effects. It supports weapon systems such as mortars, field artillery cannons, rockets and missiles, close air support, attack aviation, and naval surface fire support systems.

Logistics: Sustainment Support Mission Command (S2MC) has been "sunset" by the S2MC Project Manager (PM).  The S2MC PM has suggested that units use a unit-derived standardized format for submission of sustainment status reports, in-transit visibility (ITV) of supplies and equipment in the
distribution pipeline, and asset visibility (AV) of resources with the units and supply points.

The Distributed Common Ground System-Army (DCGS-A) is the Army's flagship system for
Intelligence, Surveillance, and Reconnaissance (ISR) Tasking, Processing, Exploitation, and Dissemination (TPED), information and intelligence about the threat, weather, and terrain. DCGS-A has the ability to operate across all echelons, all security and network domains (Unclassified, Secret,
Top Secret), to include allied and coalition networks with appropriate Cross Domain Solution, and
within and across all computing environments. DCGS-A provides the Operating Force conducting decisive action operations with a fully compatible ISR ground processing system capable of supporting the appropriate Computing Environments (CE). The DCGS Enterprise is a subset of an overall Defense
Intelligence Information Enterprise (DI2E), which includes component commands, theater ISR organizations and capabilities, the Defense intelligence combat support agencies and ties into other National intelligence organizations.
1-7. TC 6-0.1 requires the use of certain terms and definitions to streamline the training process. This manual uses the following training specific terms throughout the manual for consistency, accuracy, and standardization

Mission Command Information Systems (MCIS) - provides capabilities for situational awareness, planning, and collaboration, hosted on a single laptop called the Mission Command Workstation.

## Chapter 2 The Digital Crew

The digital crew facilitates the display of information to the Commander in the Command Post (CP). The digital crew are the System experts that can input, share, display and change information to assist the Commander in his decision-making process. This chapter will discuss the composition of the digital crew, key players, roles and responsibilities. It will define a qualified crew and provide recommendations on the number of qualified crews at each echelon that Mission Command Information Systems (MCIS) are present.

It is important to note that the requirements for digital crews are different for each echelon and should be based on the Commander's intent. In other words, a Combined Arms Battalion will look very different from a Brigade Support Battalion. The Digital Master Gunner (DMG) should provide the commander their best assessment on what system and people should comprise the digital crews for assigned missions.

## Section I - Composition

2-1. Mission Command Digital Master Gunner - The Mission Command Digital Master Gunner (DMG) is the Subject Matter Expert (SME) on the integration of the Mission Command Work Station/Command Post of the Future (MCWS/CPOF) and other MCIS to generate a COP for the Commander and Battle Staff using a unit's integrated system-of-systems command post. A DMG will possess the ability to integrate, visualize, and troubleshoot the primary MCISs and will be a leader capable of training and mentoring unit Digital Master Gunners and MCIS operators on the integration of their respective systems within the command post. The DMG
is not a subject matter expert on the use of MCISs and cannot train maintenance or operation. The DMG is not required to, but can also serve as, a MCWS (CPOF) operator. The digital master gunner is also the leader of the digital crew. 2-2. MCIS System Operator - Each MCIS system will have their own operator responsible for the operation and maintenance of their individual systems. They act as the SME for the operation of their assigned MCIS and build graphics as appropriate to their mission and Warfighting function (Warfighting funtion). The MCIS operator is responsible for publishing any graphic produced on their MCIS to the Data Dissemination Service (DDS) Server for integration into the COP and for updating graphics when necessary. They work within the commander's intent and advise the digital master gunner, fellow crew members, and shift replacement on the proper employment of their MCIS. 2-3. Knowledge Manager - The knowledge manager advises the DMG and system operators on the digital Standard Operating Procedure (SOP). They are responsible for assessing knowledge flow in order to fulfill Commander's Critical Information Requirements (CCIR). The knowledge manager helps establish and enforce the policy for information and knowledge flow throughout the staff.

2-4. S6 - Responsible for the technical network infrastructure used to support the MCIS. The S6 must work closely with the DMG to ensure all systems are linked correctly to share information. The S6 must also work with the DMG to ensure the correct version of software are installed on all the MCIS. This becomes critical when integrating digital enablers within the CP.

Chapter 2_____________________________________________________________________________
2-5. Commander - The commander's intent and vision will drive the physical manifestation of the COP and the digital crew. The commander will ultimately dictate how many qualified digital crews are required within their organization and what systems/operators will encompass the digital crew. This idea is illustrated below in Table 2-1 where the only the highlighted system operators will comprise the digital crew. 2-6. PURPOSE - The purpose of a digital crew is to integrate information across the Warfighting Functions through the use of MCISs, in order to present the commander with accurate information that develops and supports situational understanding. Digital crews, led by the digital master gunner, work together to develop a common operational picture for the Commander and assist the staff in command post operations.

## Composition

2-7. The Digital crew is comprised of (at a minimum) the main MCISs located within the CP. These crews can be tailored at echelon to accommodate or remove additional MCIS operators as needed. At a minimum, a brigade digital crew should include at least one of each primary staff section MCIS. In a Brigade Combat Team, that would include CPOF, JCR, AFATDS, AMDWS, TAIS, and DCGS-A. 2-8. In the current Command Post Computing Environment (CPCE) digital crews are system based. However, in the future CPCE, all systems could be potentially combined into a single system capable of all the required functions. In this environment, it is more important for the digital crew members to be focused on the integration of the information generated in their Warfighting Function and less on system operation.

2-9. Each digital crew member has responsibilities within their staff section but also to the digital crew.  Digital crew members are responsible for advising staff primaries on the best ways to implement the capabilities of their MCIS to better develop situational understanding across the staff.

2-10. Digital crew members are expected to be masters of their digital systems. While the digital master gunners are experts at the integration of information across the digital domain, they are not SMEs on all of the MCISs. The digital crew members should continue to advise the DMG on the intricacies of their assigned systems.

2-11. Composition of the digital crew is solely up to the commander's discretion. The commander should consult the master gunner prior to making any formal decisions on the size and complexity of the digital crew, however recommendations for minimum standards based on echelon are listed below. 2-12. The intent behind the battalion digital crew is to ensure each MCIS has a digital table trained operator as part of a digital crew. As an example, if the battalion has 3x CPOFs, 2x AFATDS, and a DCGS-A, the digital crew should be comprised of the DMG, 1x CPOF Operator, 1x AFATDS operator, and the DCGS-A operator
(illustrated in Figure 2-1). The digital crews do not need to have an operator assigned to every on-hand MCIS.

## Battalion Digital Crews

2-13. Battalions are required to have a minimum of two digital crews. These two digital crews are intended to operate as the battalion tactical operations center's current operations day and night crews. Members of the digital crews can also assist in planning operations or as part of an assault command post based on commander's discretion. 2-14. A Battalion's digital crew can be comprised of as little as 2-3 members depending on the MCIS authorized and available for use. It is most likely that the DMG will also serve as the main CPOF operator/integrator on each shift. 2-15. Because Battalions are not authorized a full suite of MCISs, they will be required to pull various information from higher echelons in order to develop a situational understanding for the commander. Battalion MCIS operators should foster working relationships with higher echelon staff sections in order to understand where to retrieve information to facilitate the creation of a full COP for the commander.

## Brigade And Above Digital Crews

2-16. Brigade and higher echelon headquarters are required to have at least four digital crews. These four digital crews give the commanders the ability to simultaneously operate a TOC and Tactical Command Post (TAC) with full day and night digital crews. While not operating as part of the TAC, the 2x additional crews can operate as digital crews for the Future Operations (FUOPS) and Planning cells at various echelons.

2-17. Digital crews are meant to facilitate the flow of information laterally, between the Warfighting functions sections, and vertically within their respective Warfighting function. The Commander can tailor the size of the digital crew to meet the requirements and equipment assigned to the staff, as shown in Figure 2-2.

## Section Ii - Qualification Of The Digital Crew

2-18. A qualified digital crew can greatly assist the staff in the integration of the Warfighting Functions and the development of shared situation understanding. Understanding both the systems and the personalities of the other members of the digital crew will greatly increase the effectiveness and speed at which a crew can accomplish their mission.

2-19. Digital crews will possess one of three ratings: fully qualified, qualified, or unqualified.

Fully Qualified - At a minimum, every member of the digital crew will have completed digital training
tables (DTT) individually or as part of a crew. All assigned crew members collectively/simultaneously completed digital tables III-VI.

Qualified - At a minimum, every member of the digital crew will have completed digital tables
individually or as part of a crew. 80% of the digital crew collectively/simultaneously completed digital
tables III-VI.

Unqualified - 1 or more crew members have not completed DTTs I-II or more than 20% of the crew
did not collectively/simultaneously complete digital tables III-VI.
2-20. Once a crew is considered fully qualified every effort should be made to keep the digital crew together. If a crew member must be replaced in order for the crew to keep a qualified rating, the replacement must at least be individually qualified on DTT I-II. It is recommended, though not required, to retrain DTT III-VI as a crew prior to execution of Staff collective tables. 2-21. If more than two crew members are replaced from the original fully qualified crew, the digital crew will be considered unqualified until the new crew conducts DTTs (III-VI) as a collective unit.

## Digital Training Tables I-Ii - Individual Function

2-22. DTTs I-II are designed to qualify the individual operators. Operators can execute these tables independently or as a crew. The tables cover basic system operation of the crew member's assigned MCIS.

2-23. The intent behind DTTs I-II is to ensure that all users operating on the MCIS network are masters on their individual MCISs. Because of the collaborative nature of the system, missteps on one system can have adverse effects on other. It is critical all digital crew members are SMEs on their system prior to starting digital tables III-
VI. 2-24. The Digital Master Gunner will supervise the execution of these tables. While the DMG is not an SME on the operation of all MCISs, they will understand the key aspects needed to ensure communication between the Warfighting funtions remains fluid.

2-25. The DMG will keep a roster of all DTT I-II qualified personnel in the unit and what systems they are qualified on. It is possible to be qualified on more than one MCIS, however, one person cannot act as the operator for more than one system in the digital crew.

## Digital Tables Iii-Vi Qualification

2-26. DTTs III-VI are designed to qualify digital crews on the integration of their assigned MCIS when applied to the unit's digital SOP. Led by the DMG, the digital crew will apply their knowledge of the individual MCIS to develop and produce a COP, manage SIGACTs, maintain running estimates, execute battle drills, and prepare and deliver update briefings. 2-27. The intent behind the DTT III-VI is to ensure the digital crews can communicate effectively through the DDS using the MCWS (CPOF) as the integrating system. Crew members will be required to leverage the unique capabilities of their assigned system and the knowledge trained in DTT I-II in order to successfully integrate all the information into a consolidated COP. 2-28. During DTTs III-VI, the DMG will coordinate the efforts of the crew based on a generic mission scenario.

By following the units digital SOP, the DMG and the digital crew will be able to execute these tables absent of direction from the Commander and Staff. 2-29. These tables are not designed to test the tactical competence or planning ability of the digital crew. These tables are designed to ensure that crews have the technical ability to communicate effectively through the DDS.

The skills tested during these tables will enable the digital crew to operate more efficiently with the addition of commander's intent and analog staff. 2-30. Upon completion of digital tables III-VI, the crew will be considered completely qualified. The digital master gunner will maintain a roster of all the qualified digital crews within their organization. Again, every effort should be made to not change members of the crews after they have collectively completed DTTs III-VI.

## Mission Command Training Tables Vii-X - Commander/Staff Integrated Digital Training

2-31. DTTs VII-X are designed to qualify the staff as a whole. The qualified digital crew will assist the staff in planning, battle management, and 24-hour command post operations. During these tables, the DMG becomes an advisor to the Command team and staff, acting as the digital integration SME. DTTs VII-X will be conducted jointly with the staff training tables outlined in TC 6-0, Training the Mission Command Warfighting Function.

Chapter 2_____________________________________________________________________________
2-32. The intent of these tables is to have the digital crews work in conjunction with the staff sections in order to allow the commander to develop situational understanding. Digital crews will be required to be familiar with all aspects of their digital systems and how they can assist the staff and command using their assigned MCIS.

2-33. These tables will not impact the qualification rating of the digital crew; however, they can highlight skills that require retraining. The DMG can work with staff primaries to refine the digital SOP and develop a retraining plan to ensure that the digital crew members operate effectively and efficiently within their staff section.

## Chapter 3 Individual Training Program

This chapter provides guidelines on how to plan, prepare, execute, and assess digital training for Mission Command Information Systems (MCIS) through crew and staff qualification. It provides guidance on training critical skills that produce Soldiers and digital crews with the ability to synchronize information flow across MCISs. It includes general concepts for the digital training strategy (DTS), and describes how to integrate digital gunnery tables into training events. Developing unit training plans for crew proficiency requires attention to detail, thoroughness, flexibility, and timely planning. Commanders and Digital Master Gunners should be thoroughly familiar their unit's modern Table of Organizational Equipment (MTOE) authorizations for MCISs. Much like Tanks and Bradleys are the platforms used to execute mechanized gunnery, the physical MCISs and the software employed are the platforms dedicated to digital gunnery. It is imperative the Digital Master Gunner identify and plan for the utilization of all MCISs. However, unlike the integrated weapons training strategy, there are no ammunition STRAC limitations associated with training digital systems. Every unit's MTOE comes with the full complement of equipment required to run digital gunnery tables as often as needed to maintain digital proficiency. Commanders, trainers, and planners must have a comprehensive understanding of the topics in this chapter, how each component of the training program interacts with other training programs, and have the ability to forecast and plan months in advance to achieve the desired level of proficiency.

## Section I - Digital Training Strategy

3-1. The DTS is designed to integrate with any unit training cycle and is not tied to the fiscal year (FY). The DTS is comprised of specific elements that build a training and qualification model for each operator, system, and Brigade and above echelons.

3-2. These elements are defined as:

Frequency. This is the number of iterations a unit is completes training cycle.

Tables. The Digital System Training Strategy contains a standard series of tables that progressively
build MCIS integration proficiency in a crawl-walk-run method of training. The tables are numbered I through X for standardization purposes. While there are no required GO/NO-GO training gates MCIS
operators must meet in order to progress through the training, the training tables must be conducted in
order as they build on skills validated in previous tables. The digital training tables are broken down
into three distinct categories followed by a final validation exercise.

Individual MCIS Skills. Tables I and II are an opportunity for the individual users to show proficiency
in the setup, operation, integration, and employment of their individual MCISs.

MCIS integration. Table III -VI provide an opportunity for digital crews to test the integration of all
MCISs on the units MTOE. The tables allows digital crews to test and validate unit SOPs without intervention of the staff. Digital crews will be able to figure out how to operate their MCIS to create
shared understanding between the staff sections.

Mission Command Training Tables. Tables VII-X focus on the process and distribution of relevant
information within a Command Post environment. While tables I-VI can be accomplished strictly with the individual MCIS operators acting as a digital crew under the supervision of the Digital Master Gunner, Tables VII - X training will be conducted in conjunction with a unit training exercise (Command Post Exercise (CPX), WFX, etc...).

Mission Command Validation Exercise - The final qualification table will require the digital crew to integrate as part of the staff and set up and run a CP in an operational environment. Like the Mission Command Training Tables, this must be done within the construct of preplanned exercises.
3-3. The Digital Training Tables (DTT) outlined in this chapter are geared for individual operators, sections, and entire Staffs. At the completion of the Mission Command Validation Exercise Staffs will be able to seamless share information across MCISs. Staffs will be able to plan, and execute operations, create and maintain running estimates, all while synthesizing relevant information to provide the Commander options on the battle field.

## Crew Tables

3-4. Table 3-1 shows the individual and crew tables and provides their general description and tasks associated with each table. The tables show a digital crawl-walk-run progression for staff in accordance with the FORSCOM Commander's training guidance.

3-5. The training strategy uses these tables to provide a common, consistent training model to all digital crew and Staff. These tables are executed in a progressive manner building upon the skills tested in the previous tables. All Training and Evaluation Outlines (T&Eos) with associated GO/NO-GO criteria for the digital training tables can found in the Central Army Registry. 3-6. The resourses required to run all these tables will be outlined in Chapter 5, Individual and crew tables (I-VI).

## Table I, Execute Basic Mcis Operations

3-7. Execute basic MCIS Operations is directed at individual operators and their assigned MCIS. Table I evaluates the operator's ability to execute selected tasks that are critical to the operation of the assigned sections Mission Command Information System. Table I is a mandatory prerequisite for the remainder of the digital tables. 3-8. The tasks evaluated in Table I provide the Digital Master Gunner a means to certify the operator's digital proficiency prior to collective section and staff training. It can be used as a guide for identifying individual and sections system strengths and weaknesses on specific fundamentals. The results from the Individual MCIS Skills Test should be used by the Commander and Digital Master Gunner when structuring the unit's crew training program. 3-9. Table I will require direct oversight from the Digital Master Gunner. If table one is executed on a network the DMG will work closely with the S6 to ensure the network architecture is in place. No integration of digital systems will be trained during this table. Commanders and Staffs have little to no role during this table. 3-10. Following the completion of the digital training table, the DMG will be able to assess the digital crew members ability to set up and operate their assigned MCIS.

## Table Ii, Integrate Command Post Systems

3-11. The purpose of this table is to ensure the operators and sections understand the interoperability and collaborative capabilities of their respective MCIS. Skills tested in this table will ensure that operators are able to effectively communicate using the MCIS. Unit SOPs will be utilized to determine the best layout for permission and accountability of communication and information distribution. 3-12. This training table is not designed as a means to create a unit SOP; however, it will provide the necessary structure to test and validate the various MCIS and knowledge management SOPs.

3-13. This is the first table that will require the deliberate collaboration between all three parties in the digital triad (Knowledge Manager/S6/DMG). The DMG will be responsible for the MCISs ensuring that all operators have successfully completed Table I. The Knowledge Manager (KM) is responsible for the information processes that comprise the common operating picture. The S6 is responsible for the digital network required to operate the MCIS. 3-14. At the completion of this table the digital crews will be proficient in sharing information to the DDS serve allowing the MCWS/CPOF operators to pull data created by the system operators.

## Table Iii, Develop The Cop

3-15. Develop the COP table's purpose is to ensure the Staff sections are able to collaborate within the Commander's guidance to develop and utilize a common operating picture. The Command Post digital crews will track an operation within the simulation and react to CCIR and developing events by executing battle drills, managing multiple significant activities, and producing storyboards of key SIGACTS for further analysis. The digital crew and their assigned MCIS will be the primary vehicle for battle tracking during this table. 3-16. The DMG will use a scenario to drive the tables and ensure that information is being shared by the various digital crew members to the DDS. While each member will be working on a different part of the COP (example:
AFATDS working on target execution,) the COP displayed must provide the commander situational awareness and facilitate decision making. 3-17. This tables required more input from the commander or staff to help drive the appearance of the COP. Because each commander is different and has a different way of processing information the DMG need to communicate with the commander and S3/XO to determine the intent behind the COP. 3-18. The S6 will also be involved in the execution of this table as a digital network is required in order to execute the system integration. A complete list of information required to conduct systems integration can be found in Chapter 5 Individual and Crew Tables (I-VI) 3-19. The critical outcome of this table is the digital crew's ability share information from this MCIS to the COP
and demonstrate to alter the COP information from their MCIS.

## Table Iv, Execute Battle Management

3-20. The purpose of the Execute Battle Management Table is to stress the digital crews in 4 hour increments of simulated battle. It is the natural progression of skill trained during Table III and force crews to use their MTOE
MCIS to manage multiple activities at once, while rapidly synthesizing information in order to make recommendations and generate options. 3-21. Based on the nature of the training scenario, knowledge and application of the SOPs by the digital crews will be critical to the success of the training table. Digital Master Gunners, along with the Knowledge Managers, will continue to refine SOPs and Tactics, Techniques, and Procedures (TTPs) in order to ensure efficient communication between the sections. 3-22. Commanders will have the opportunity to observe their Staff communicate via digital means, see the application of his unit or digital SOP, and execute his guidance through battle drills and update briefings.

3-23. At the completion of the Table VI digital crews will be expected to facilitate planning, execute battle drills, and manage SIGACTS, and conduct update briefs using their assigned MCISs.

## Table V, Mission Command System Rehearsal

3-24. Table V is performed on the digital crews primary MCIS. It is designed to train and evaluate the staff's ability to use their MCISs to plan, prepare, and disseminate an operations order. The intent behind the table is to conduct the planning and dissemination of the Operations Order (OPORD) strictly through the use of the MCISs without resorting to hard copy products (MS Word, MS Excel, MS PowerPoint, etc). 3-25. During this table, units should make every effort to restrict the use of Microsoft Office programs to backups only. If required, crews may request additional resources to facilitate the training.

3-26. This table prepares crew for the Table VI Qualification. It is a scenario driven table that will stress digital crews on the tasks trained in the previous four tables. Units should retrain as necessary with multiple scenarios when possible. This is the final table validating the skill of the digital crew prior to the execution of the qualification table. 3-27. Retraining should be conducted as many times as necessary to refine any friction areas within the crew prior to the execution of the qualification table. 3-28. At the conclusion of this table the digital crew will be able to utilize their MCIS sharing information across the DDS in order to facilitate situational awareness for the commander and enable decision making.

## Table Vi, Digital Crew Certification

3-29. Table VI Digital Crew Certification is performed by the digital crew on the MCISs. It is designed to train and evaluate the digital crew ability to support a staffs plan an operations, disseminate an OPORD, conduct battle management, create story boards, process information, and make recommendations to the Commander. This table does not include staff personnel and is strictly for the qualification of the digital crew.

3-30. Digital crews will be required to use systems and equipment leveraged in previous table to prepare, execute, and continuously assess the ongoing and future operation. Utilizing the MCISs, crews will develop and foster shared understanding through dissemination of information to both higher and lower echelons, as well as adjacent and supporting units.

3-31. At the conclusion of the this training tables commanders will certify their digital crew qualification level based on observation and recommendation from the DMG. Digital crews are experts in the integration of information through the DDS and are prepared to integrate into the staff to support the operations process.

## Mission Command Training Tables

3-32. The training audience for Training Tables VII-X is the unit's staff, not the digital crew. The digital crew is still considered part of and will support the staff during the execution of the training table. The DMG and commander will still observe the skill displayed by the digital crew and can use Training Table X as a way to validate the digital crew qualification level in accordance with the Objective-T atrophy model.

## Table Vii, Integrate The Mission Command System

3-33. Integrate the Mission Command System. Table VII begins with the reception of liaisons. This may or may not include unified action partners. Further, the XO, under the direction of the commander, will lead the command through the entire Military Decision Making Process (MDMP) with the inclusion of the liaisons and attachments. As part of complete the MDMP, the staff will coordinate with higher, lower, and adjacent units. Cells and sections will also identify and establish reporting requirements through the correct channels, and the XO will ensure that the HQ can report these reporting requirements to higher. The venue and facility location is determined by the commander IAW the unit Combined Arms Training Strategy (CATS) and mission requirements. 3-34. This table simulates the initial set up of a CP and establishing the system necessary to enable Mission Command. Tasks executed during this table are focused on setting up the network, basic integration of the MCIS, and rapid development and dissemination of the COP to facilitate situational understanding. Many of these tasks will happen simultaneously throughout the course of the table and will require the application of skills tested in Gunnery Tables I-III.

## Table Viii, Synchronize Operations With Unified Action Partners

3-35. Synchronize Operations with Unified Action Partners. Once the liaisons and attachments are set, and the organic staff is nested with the new personnel, the XO will begin synchronizing Warfighting funtions with unified action partners. An example of this would be, the Combined Arms Battalion  (CAB) receives a company from the British Royal Marines. The XO integrates the liaison officer(s) into the staff in Table VII. In Table VIII, the XO includes the British company in the exercises preparing them to complete Tables IX and X to form a whole unit. Table VIII is the unit integration piece. Of note, some battalions may not receive their unified action partners until at or just before they arrive on station for a mission. In these cases every opportunity should be made by the command to reach out to that unit and include them on all possible training exercises. Commanders can still use the subordinate tasks of Table VIII even if no unified action partners are present. The table will be event and scenario driven in a manner that the unit can work towards Mission Essential Task (MET) proficiency with collective tasks T&EOs as determined by the commander. The venue and facility location is determined by the commander IAW the unit CATS and mission requirements. 3-36. This table tests a Staff's ability to integrate unified action parterres into the Mission Command Systems. Digital crews will be required to enable battle management, assist in the operations process, and share information vertically and laterally to other HQs and adjacent units. At the culmination of this table digital crews will be fully assimilated into the Staffs. In order to successful complete the tables, digital crews must be familiar with the individual task trained during Digital Training Tables III and IV.

## Table Ix, Mission Command Validation Exercise (Mcve) Rehearsal

3-37. Mission Command Validation Exercise Rehearsal. The validation exercise rehearsal will be conducted IAW unit CATS and the commander's intent. It is expected that this event be conducted in a real or simulated OE in which the unit is missioned to operate in or allocated against for a given contingency. The exercise will be conducted using 24-hour operations and last more than two days. The exercise will also be based on collective tasks found within the units Mission Essential Task List (METL) or on higher headquarters' top driven mission requirements. The intent is that this exercise match as closely as possible the training circumstances and requirements found within Table X, the Mission Command Validation Exercise (typically a Combat Training Center rotation for a battalion (BN) sized element).

## Table X, Mission Command Validation Exercise

3-38. Mission Command Validation Exercise. This is the culmination exercise of both the HQ and the BN as a whole. This exercise will be driven by the evaluating commander and mission requirements. The exercise will culminate with at final T rating for readiness reporting. Once the exercise is complete, the commander, in coordination with the evaluating commander, assigns a T rating for the unit as a whole. 3-39. The Table X, MCVE is designed to test staffs across all function for prolonged periods of time (in excess of 48 hours). Digital crews will be required to perform all functions trained in previous tables to include TOC/TAC battle handover and operations in degraded conditions.

## Section Ii - Unit Digital Master Gunner

3-40. The Master Gunner is an institution-trained and certified SME on the integration of the Mission Command Information Systems. Mission Command Digital Master Gunner (DMG) training specializes in the MCWS/CPOF, but includes the key components of other MCISs required to develop training for all MCISs assigned to the unit. 3-41. DMGs need to understand that institutional training is only the initial training. As computer systems change and are updated the DMG must continue to refine their skills and the skills of their crews with self-study and reach back through the MCDMG Course proponent and their local Mission Training Complex (MTC). 3-42. For units without a Master Gunner assigned or authorized, the Commander must select an experienced NCO, or training/range NCO, to support the digital training programs in the unit. For simplicity, "Master Gunner"
is used throughout this manual. For units without a Master Gunner position, a Digital Gunnery NCO who is experienced with staff operations, MCWS/CPOF, and training should be identified to assist in development and execution of the UTP for MCISs. 3-43. The Unit "(Digital) Master Gunner", responsible for synchronizing individual and collective digital training events, resourcing training facilities (digital training), tracking equipment hardware/software maintenance and systems accountability, and advising the Commander on their digital training program. Tactically, the MCDMG
advises and assists the Commander in development of their Digital common operating picture (COP). This includes the planning, developing, executing, evaluating and certifying Soldiers on the full suite of Mission Command Information Systems (MCISs) which are, but not limited to, MCWS/CPOF, AFATDS, DCGS-A, TAIS, AMDWS, S2MC, JCR/BFT.

3-44. The Digital Master Gunner duties are directed by the Commander.  Additional duties include:

SME for Digital Training Table certification

Manage digital crew roster and individual system training/certification

Assist unit(s) with MCIS training

Develop unit digital sustainment training

Advise the Commander of the capabilities and limitations of the digital systems in support of the
Commander's mission requirement
3-45. The MCDMG is the focal point for the production of the COP through the use of the MCWS/CPOF.  The Signal Master Gunner is the "backside" expert of MCWS/CPOF with their attention being given to system administration of the switches, servers, and connectivity of the MCISs.  A MCWS/CPOF operator may be able to operate the MCWS/CPOF, but lacks the skills to integrate all the MCISs to produce the COP.

## Section Iii - Unit Training Plan

3-46. The unit training plan (UTP) is the unit's overarching plan to attain collective task proficiency. As part of achieving the collective task proficiency, units develop their digital training plans, discussed below. Every digital training event is led and managed through the operations process (plan-prepare-execute-assess). It is planned and coordinated in detail well before execution to ensure the training objectives are synchronized with the unit's collective tasks. Digital crew training is just one series of events that support the unit's overall proficiency for combat, and is critical to the unit's success. 3-47. The concepts of the "T-week" (active component) and the "T-month" (reserve component) are used to provide a sequential framework that ensures all critical actions are completed before and after the training event is conducted. This process has to start early enough in the planning cycle to ensure all resources required to train are present and accounted for as the training begins. 3-48. All actions listed below in T-week and T-month are designed for simplicity. Active components read the "T minus" number in weeks, and reserve components read the same number as months. This aligns the requirements appropriately for most cases. If a schedule or task is required outside of that general framework, the specific change is identified in parentheses. 3-49. The T-week concept provides a framework and a backward planning method that provides specific considerations for the planning and coordination necessary for each training event. The T-week concept ensures that all significant actions necessary to execute the training are considered and completed in a timely manner.

Although the following description is extensive, it does not take into account each unit or installation's particular requirements for planning and coordination. The T-week concepts support but do not replace the detailed planning a unit executes using the military decision making process (MDMP), troop leading procedures (TLPs), or their own eight-step training model. 3-50. After completing the unit assessment and establishing the training goals, objectives, and requirements, the commander then can design his weapons platform training plan. The Commander must select an approach to training that suits his unit's needs and is structured to the average proficiency level of his unit. The Commander and the primary trainers then must schedule training to coincide with the availability of training days, devices, resources, training areas, and ranges. Whenever possible, training events should be combined to maximize the available operations tempo (OPTEMPO) and training days of the entire unit.

3-51. The greatest problem a Commander faces in regards to digital training is crew roster changes. The Commander must plan for reducing and controlling turbulence as the unit progresses across the training horizon.

He must do this while he develops and before he executes his training plan. Some possible solutions to crew management challenges are:

Train an alternate for each position.


Continually cross-training personnel for replacements. Experienced Soldiers are easier to train than new Soldiers.

Form complete crews from new personnel who come into the unit to establish longevity in position.

Encourage attendance to Digital Master Gunner School with graduate stabilization within the unit.

Encourage attendance to the Mission Training Center lead MCIS courses.

Develop and execute a series of NCO professional development events that focus on instructing the trainer on digital platform topics. For example, units could provide monthly sessions led by their subject
matter experts on integration, COP creation, degraded operations, maneuver graphics, sharing situation
understanding, or battle management.
3-52. Planners and trainers must take adequate time and effort to determine the unit's current strengths and weaknesses concerning their digital integration proficiency. The digital system training strategy provides a standardized means to train digital integration on all platforms. This master strategy is synchronized to support the unit's training goals and objectives, METL, and commander's intent while working in a collaborative fashion with other training strategies. The unit's understanding of the training strategy's table sets, its mandatory training events and throughput demands are key to crafting and executing a successful MCIS training program.

## Commander's Assessment

3-53. Prior to developing any UTP, the Commander must make a complete assessment of the unit's proficiency, training strengths, its weaknesses, and the standards he wishes to achieve. This assessment must be comprehensive to design training to achieve, improve, or sustain proficiency. Commanders assess and evaluate all aspects of training, including the planning, preparation, and execution. Leaders continuously monitor the unit's mission-essential task list (METL) proficiency to determine a quantifiable snap shot of the unit's current MCIS proficiency. From this snap shot, the unit can develop a training plan to correct deficiencies, improve mastery, and sustain fundamentals. The Master Gunner advises the commander on all MCIS capabilities, unit proficiency, training status, and employment. The Commander assesses the overall proficiency of the unit's digital crews and staff sections, and the Master Gunner focuses on the proficiency of each individual crew.

3-54. The following factors must be considered during the assessment of crew proficiency:

Previous training. The Commander assesses training with input from the executive officer
(XO),operations staff officer (S-3), Master Gunner, subordinate leaders, and senior trainers. The NCOs are the primary trainers of Soldiers and crews, and assist in the development of unit training plans. The Commander can use individual and crew training evaluations to assess the unit's current proficiency.
Commanders can evaluate their unit's proficiency for digital training by reviewing training records.

Individual. Evaluate Soldier skills that indicate individual training proficiency. The Soldier's
performance on diagnostic and record Table I Operator Training, which evaluates specific platformrelated individual proficiency. Individual MCIS training and qualification scores indicate proficiency for crew specific MCIS.
3-55. The Commander uses the specific task standards whenever possible to measure the demonstrated abilities of individuals and crews. Accurate and honest evaluations are necessary to identify where to place training emphasis. Leaders must make on-the-spot corrections and demand aggressive action to correct training deficiencies.

## Mission-Essential Task List

3-56. Time, resources, and command emphasis must all focus on training tasks that support the METL. Digital Master Gunners and Staff Sections should use the appropriate individual tasks that support the training objectives using the following references:

Combined Arms Training Strategy (CATS).

Central Army Registry (CAR).

Digital Training Management System (DTMS).

Soldier's manuals.

Soldier training publications.

Universal Joint Task List (UJTL).

Army, area command, and local regulations.

Unit standard operating procedures (SOPs).
3-57. The training and evaluation outlines for the collective tasks, drills, and individual tasks identified that support the unit's METL can be accessed through the DTMS and CATS found on the Army Training Network (ATN) (https://atn.army.mil ).

## Training Goals

3-58. Training goals vary according to the local training conditions. Commanders must design their training to
their available training environments and to specifically address their unit proficiency assessments. The goal is to
create a training environment that is as realistic and demanding as possible with the resources available. As a
norm, the following goals should be set to ensure successful training:

Set and enforce tough, but achievable standards. Tough standards generate effective training; loose
standards produce weak units. The Soldiers must know when they have done well and when they need additional training and repetition to achieve mastery.

Start early. All aspects of a training program must be thoroughly coordinated. Forecast and request resources, maintenance, and network assistance long before they are needed.

Be thorough. Leave nothing to chance. Avoid wasting resources and training opportunities. Give digital
crews and staff sections the guidance and assets needed to train their sections effectively and efficiently.

Be flexible. Continually update the training program to the unit's changing needs. If assessment and planning stop, the training program stagnates.

Train continually. Train at every opportunity, not just during an intensified period, to get ready for
qualification tables at all levels. Intensified programs should be used only to bring a unit to a desired
proficiency level; then train continually to maintain and sustain that level.
3-59. Contingency plans and alternate methods of training should be identified when the primary plan cannot be executed. Training time is valuable and should not be lost due to unforeseen factors, whenever possible. Units should consider planning for network outages, degraded operations, adverse weather conditions, and other impacts to their plans.

## Planning Timeline

3-60. Detailed analysis of the training plan must be done to align training resources, equipment, and facilities to ensure training conditions are set. The following paragraphs establish milestones for successful mission command training exercises.

## T-21 To T-13 - Identify Major Training Facilities

3-61. During T-21 through T-13, units identify the major training facilities required to execute their training plans. Units must follow local SOPs to secure facilities, which may not follow this timeline. If available, units can use pre-fabricated CP in their installation MTC. 3-62. Developing the tentative training timeline provides backwards planning during the execution weeks of the training event. Units can de-conflict training issues earlier, and ultimately secure the facilities and training areas, at the earliest opportunity. 3-63. Units must take appropriate time to determine the crew compositions by position early in the planning cycle.

This reduces the amount of time spent familiarizing crews with systems and allows for rapid effective communication between the digital crews.

## T-12 - Conduct Mission Analysis

3-64. T-12 focuses on conducting a training event mission analysis. Gathering the information required to conduct training event planning is critical to developing successful training events. Units capture historical training records, after action reviews (AARs), maintenance status reports, Soldier and leader certifications, sergeant's time training (STT) plans, and other key training indicators to support the analysis.

3-65. Units must identify all prerequisite training, certifications, qualifications, and requirements to support the training. This includes a detailed review the enablers used to support training.

3-66. During T-12, units consider and plan the available STT periods which should include individual and crew tasks. Training guidance to sergeants should include an MCIS platform focus, where appropriate, as recommended by the Digital Master Gunner. For example, Commander's guidance could include MCWS/CPOF
permissions training as part of the STT focus. This would directly benefit T-6 through T-week where the record Table I, Individual/Operator Training, will be executed. 3-67. Managing crew rosters is a key responsibility of the unit. Units must consider the longevity of each individual crewmember. Units must look beyond the training event at potential promotion, permanent change of station (PCS), end-term of service (ETS), retirement, position changes, and other common personnel actions that could impact the individual crew's stability. Units must be predictable when assigning crew position and limit last-minute crew changes. Crews may not have time to successfully complete training prerequisites as the T-
weeks progress. 3-68. The unit should conduct an In Progress Review (IPR) for the upcoming training event. During this IPR, leaders should coordinate staff requirements to produce the operations order (OPORD) for the training event. This includes assigning enclosures and annexes development to the appropriate staff function. 3-69. Digital Master Gunners, in coordination with the Land and Ammo NCO, must deconflict any facility, or training area issues that arise as early as possible. Coordination with conflicted units, range operations, or consideration of alternate training locations will be required. For all resource scheduling, earlier is better. Units should refrain from securing large numbers of facilities early and dropping most of them closer to the training event. This prohibits other units from securing the resources early, and is indicative of a plan that is not well thought out. 3-70. The Master Gunner develops the framework for the digital gunnery OPORD with appropriate enclosures to support the complete training plan. The base OPORD for the training event is administrative, coordinating the actions necessary to manage the preparation, execution, and recovery from the training event. The OPORD should identify the individual and collective tasks to be trained and the desired level of proficiency at the completion of training. The OPORD also should address the actions to be taken to retrain the tasks during the event if the desired end-state is not achieved. 3-71. Table VI, Crew Certification, and Table X, Command Post Mission Command Validation Exercise, require external evaluation. The Master Gunner must coordinate through a higher or lateral echelon for the appropriate amount of support. Master Gunners should coordinate for a briefing to the tasked external evaluators prior to training execution.

## T-11 - Refine Event Requirements

3-72. The focus of T-11 is to refine the event training requirements based on previous training results. This focus identifies the training trends and gaps of the unit's current proficiency to address them in the commander's guidance as needed. 3-73. Analyze previous training results available to the unit. Schedule additional training or re-training as necessary to support the training plan. 3-74. Provide planning guidance for concurrent training and follow-on collective training events. The crew tables provide the foundation for the collective training tables within the DTS. Units must ensure the planned training supports any collective training beyond Table VI. This includes management of the crews and crew rosters to ensure their longevity in their position supports the collective training plan. 3-75. Review scenarios to ensure they support the commander's guidance and intent.

## T-10 - Publish Warnord And Begin Pre-Execution Checks

3-76. During T-10, the unit publishes the training event Warning Order (WARNORD)H to allow the supporting staff and leaders' initial planning guidance and tasks. The unit determines the operational environment the training should replicate. 3-77. Publish the Digital Gunnery WARNORD to units. The order must contain sufficient information for the supporting staff to begin gunnery preparation. This includes items such as the required classes of supply, external evaluation requirements, internal training to support the event, and in-progress review schedules. Verify Training areas and facilities required for digital fire training events. This includes any required use of hard stand buildings or MTC operated command posts. Once all tasks are verified, provide the updated information to the S-3 to incorporate into the OPORD as appropriate.

## T-9 - Conduct Resource Planning And Submit Requests

3-78. During T-9 units develop and plan for the appropriate resources to support the training event. This includes all classes of supply, facilities, and external support. 3-79. The unit should establish a clear series of in-progress reviews for the training event. These should begin after the WARNORD is published bi-weekly during T-10. Once the unit reaches T-6, IPRs should be conducted weekly. 3-80. The unit reviews the final scenario developed by the Digital Master Gunner once complete, the unit S-6 in coordination with the Digital Master Gunner creates the appropriate digital free text, combat message SITREPs, graphics, and icon population messages. The S-6 has the direct responsibility to support the digital traffic required to support the training event, including any FM or digital requirements for the Call-For tasks completed concurrently with the training density.

3-81. The S-3 publishes the Commander's intent for the training event. This should include the focus of the crew qualification tables, MCIS integration, SOP and tactical standard operating procedures (TACSOP) reviews, simulations use in support of the training event, prerequisite training and certifications, and the end state of training. Units should consider the inclusion of guidance supporting best crew for each platform type, and award recommendations for those exceptional performing crews. 3-82. If the training is conducted in the training area, the unit S-4 should submit any required convoy clearance requests as appropriate for the installation. The S-4 should have coordinated with the unit's supporting cavalry scouts to conduct a route reconnaissance to ensure the route of march supports any tactical or administrative convoys. The S-4 also should coordinate with the installation or supporting unit Military Police for any escort or traffic control support.

## T-8 - Execute Reconnaissance And Lock-In Resources

3-83. T-8 focuses on range, facility, and training area reconnaissance to ensure they meet the training requirements for the planned event. Units should include the entire staff into the reconnaissance effort and physically walk the terrain whenever possible. Units may have to coordinate with other units occupying the ranges or training areas planned to not disrupt their training. 3-84. The S-3 develops the tasks to subordinate units and specific instructions for the gunnery event's OPORD. The unit Digital Master Gunner provides any specific items for the OPORD as necessary.

3-84. The Master Gunner certifies the instructors and evaluators for the digital training period. Subordinate units should be prepared to support the digital training tables with their most experienced NCOs.

## T-7 - Publish Opord

3-85. During T-7, units issue the OPORD for the training event to the subordinate units and external support units. For training that requires an external evaluation, units should provide a copy to their headquarters for coordination. 3-86. The S-3 issues the digital gunnery OPORD. This includes all required annexes and enclosures required to support the training event. 3-87. The S-3 provides all commanders within the unit a copy of DD Form 2977, Deliberate Risk Assessment Worksheet, for record. Commanders apply risk-mitigation techniques and develop their daily risk assessments as required. 3-88. The unit S-4 confirms and verifies all convoy routes and clearances. The S-4 prepares updates for the following IPR as necessary.

## T-6 Lock-In Training And Publish Training Schedules

3-89. Commanders develop their training schedules during T-6 in the DTMS to support the training event's OPORD. 3-90. Unit begins conducting weekly IPRs to support the training event. Units should include a member from each staff element, the Digital Master Gunner, and subordinate unit leadership. Any critical changes identified during the IPR should be recorded and implemented with supporting fragmentary orders (FRAGORDs). 3-91. Unit Commanders should complete and submit all training schedules for the training period. Once approved, the commanders will input the schedules in the DTMS and publish.

## T-5 - Complete Tactical Plan And Supporting Products

3-92. The unit continues to conduct IPRs on a weekly basis through training execution.

## T-4 - Conduct Certifications And Complete Prerequisite Training

3-93. The unit must ensure it has sufficient personnel certified to support the training event. This training takes several weeks and should be monitored from T-4 through T-1. Certain training events have specific prerequisites that must be completed prior to execution. The Digital Master Gunner updates the Commander weekly on the progress of these requirements. 3-94. Units continue to conduct digital gunnery density IPRs weekly. Units issue FRAGORDs to support changes or modifications as necessary.

3-95. Units confirm their TACSOP and SOPs.

## T-3 - Conduct Rehearsals

3-96. The unit executes rehearsals of the training event including back briefs from key leaders and staff. Units should conduct a thorough rehearsal or rock drill of the entire training event to identify potential issues as early as possible, and provide sufficient reaction time to correct any deficiencies or shortcomings.

3-97. The unit should conduct a key leader walk through as part of the weekly IPR. This walk through/terrain walk provides leaders an opportunity to review the training. Units should pay particular attention to the communications and digital support plan, and billeting or bivouac locations. The medic support element should include a back brief to the key leaders detailing all medic support at each training location.

3-98. The unit must confirm the crew rosters for all digital crews. Without appropriate crew management, the unit significantly reduces its effectiveness and qualification status, increases the resource demands, and fails to meet training readiness and proficiency goals.

## T-2 - Finalize Administrative Support Requirements

3-99. Units collect all required administrative documentation for the training event during T-2. Master Gunners continue to monitor the progress of prerequisite training and testing, and provide updates to the Commander as necessary. 3-100. Units update DD Form 2977, Deliberate Risk Assessment Worksheet, as appropriate, based on expected weather hazards (S-2), training factors and complexity (S-3). 3-101. The Digital Master Gunner conducts a briefing with the external evaluators tasked to support the training event. This meeting should include unit SOP review, AAR expectations, facility equipment that supports the AARs, current training guidelines, and an overview of the digital scenarios per shift. It is important for the unit Digital Master Gunner to record the contact information of all external evaluators, identify the day and night shift Non-Commissioned Officers in Charge (NCOICs), and provide transportation coordination with the evaluation team.

## T-1 - Draw Equipment And Supplies

3-102. T-1 focuses on preparing the unit to enter the training period with pre-combat inspections (PCI), precombat checks (PCC), and conducting support detail requirements. 3-103. The Master Gunner ensures 100-percent successful completion of all Table I requirements for all crews and operators, as appropriate. Any identified shortcomings require notification to the commander as well as a supportable training plan prior to execution.

## T-Week - Execute Training

3-104. T-week lasts for the duration of the training event. Units execute the training plan, re-training plan, and other tasks developed during the previous 21 weeks (12 months for RC). During execution, the Digital Master Gunner maintains the current training executed for each crew. 3-105. Provide concurrent training on all training event locations that focus specifically on the training tasks for that range or training facility. Provide and execute retraining, as appropriate.

3-106. The DMG is the primary point of results collection and manages digital crew information, and scores, as they occur. The DMG disseminates the information to the reporting NCO, Master Gunner, and range OIC in a timely manner. The DMG and range NCO provide daily updates on crew performance to the Commander and key leaders.

## T+1 - Recover And Assess Training

3-107. T+1 provides the initial tasks of recovering from training operations. It also represents the first steps in analyzing training records from the event to develop future training requirements. Units are required to provide their common crew score sheets to the next higher headquarters for review and analysis.

3-108. The analysis of the live fire training event is the critical to the unit's success. It provides detailed analysis to the commander on the results by digital crew, section, and unit. The DMG must analyze the engagements and scenarios to identify training gaps, failure, or engagements that are too easy or too demanding. This analysis is the first step in planning the next live fire training event. 3-109. The analysis also identifies excellence within the unit. The DMG determines the "Top Gun" crew for each subordinate unit and the battalion/squadron based on the commander's published guidance. The analysis indicates exceptional performers for recommendations to leadership. 3-110. The unit must update crew rosters as appropriate. The Master Gunner assists in preparation of unit status reports regarding MCIS qualifications. 3-111. The unit's DMG develops simulations and gaming system training plan for qualified (experienced) crews for sustainment training. These units continue training within the simulations to maintain proficiency on their respective platforms. 3-112. The unit should conduct an AAR with digital crews to gather information about scenarios, preparatory training, and other execution or scenario topics. Apply lessons learned to the next training event planning process. 3-113. The DMG submits a detailed execution roll-up and complete qualification table results to the higher headquarters for consolidation, data collection, and training trend analysis. This is critical in determining the Army's proficiency overall, and provides indications of training gaps, and potentially when certain standards must be increased.

## Digital Range Operations, Requirements And Scenario Development

This chapter discusses training areas, site selection, digital scenario development, and integration of digital tables into scheduled maneuver training events to build effective training tables for digital crews. It defines the required performance measures (RPMs), and details all additional requirements associated with the digital training tables. This chapter applies to all units Battalion and above that operate a TOC, TAC, or CP. Every section in this chapter is not going to be applicable to every unit. This chapter is written in a way to include as many variables and planning factors as possible. Unit Digital Master Gunners must be able to read this chapter and determine what is necessary for their training events based on conditions, locations, personnel, SOPs, etc... and plan accordingly to maximize their training efficiency.

## Section I - Planning Exercises

4-1. The planning process for any gunnery density usually begins six months from the projected training date. This ensures that there is adequate time to fully synchronize all resources with training objectives. Planning must stay flexible; the plan is continuously refined as feedback is received from the training units. Digital gunnery is a slightly different and doesn't require the significant lead time that a direct fire range requires.

## Commander's Intent

4-2. Planning a digital training exercise begins with the commander's intent for the desired end state of the exercise. The Commander issues guidance to the DMG on the training mission and will issue guidance on what to include in the training scenario. The DMG will plan the scenario to meet the commander's intent.  The S-3 and Digital Master Gunner develop the tables using the inherent flexibility in the tables to tailor the conditions and scenario to the mission meet the commander's intent. They develop the crew tables by:

The S-3 and DMG identify how tables and conditions are going to be designed to train to the unit's specific mission

The S6 provides the communications environment for the execution of the crew tables.

## Tentative Plan

4-3. The tentative plan for digital training, at minimum, must include the following:

Training schedule conflicts

Types of Mission Command Information Systems to be employed

Projected number of digital crews

Projected crew turbulence

Mission Command Information System requirements

## Digital Range And System Resources

4-4. Determining the proper area to execute training and identifying work station allocations is critical in the preparation for the training density. Potential training areas need to consider safety, power requirements as well as training needs. For an optimal training requirement, the training area should be configured the same as an operational TOC.

## Training Site Selection

4-5. Table I can be done anywhere that the MCIS can be setup since this only involves the individual MCIS equipment.  Other lower tables (I-IV) can be setup anywhere that has connectivity to the server.  Higher tables (V-X) should be setup in a TOC environment. 4-6. Training site selection does not need to be limited to the confines of an MTC. Any location that is large enough to hold the required systems and a server will work as a training site. The DMG should not be confined to what "has normally been done" when choosing a site and should select a site that meets the intent of the training exercise. Some examples of sites are as follows:


Battalion Conference Room

Company day room

DRASH tent setup in motor pool

Maintenance bay

PT field

MTC classroom
This is not an extensive list and is meant to only show that the training can be conducted anywhere that can meet
the electronic, power, and physical space requirements for the desired tables. Considerations the DMG should
consider when choosing a training site are discussed in paragraph 4-12 through 4-15.

## Training Area Operations And Scheduling

4-7. Training facilities and areas require effective coordination with range operations and thorough understanding of the installation scheduling procedures. Range operations publishes the installation SOPs. These publications establish the policies and procedures for range activities consistent with safety and environmental regulations.

4-8. Installations supplement the safety and environmental regulations with SOPs applicable to individual facilities within the installation-training complex. These SOPs should be reviewed for range availability and then confirmed through range operations. Range SOPs should address the following:


Access and egress control.

Control and coordination of training facilities.

After-action review capabilities, and classroom or debriefing areas.

Environmental compliance and stewardship.

Communications with range operations.

Accident reporting.

Medical support, MEDEVAC landing zone, and ambulance transfer points (AXP).

Range safety requirements and procedures.

Severe weather conditions actions and personnel safety.
4-9. The automated system that simplifies and enhances the current process of range and training facility management and scheduling functions at an installation and is available at most installations is RFMSS. It provides the capability for a unit to electronically submit requests for reservations. Authorized users are able to view available facilities and scheduled them for approval, disapproval, and rescheduling. RFMSS also can detect scheduling, environmental, and safety conflicts. RFMSS tracks, collects, monitors, and displays range specific information.

## Range Reconnaissance

4-10. The Commander, S-3, S-6 and/or Digital Master Gunner, as appropriate, conduct a reconnaissance of the ranges they will use to support their digital training plan. Additionally, the OIC and NCOIC for each range should
personally conduct a reconnaissance and coordinate with Range Operations headquarters during T-8. The
reconnaissance should provide answers to the following questions:

What routes to the ranges or training areas will be used?

What is the range throughput? Which includes the following considerations:
 How many systems can occupy the facility at one time?  How many crews and systems can conduct the training tables simultaneously?
 What is the average time of one table?

What power facilities are available? What is their condition?

Did range operations provide SOPs?

Does the range or training area provide adequate space for the setup of a full TOC or just current operations?

What is the digital infrastructure provided on the range? This question includes the following considerations:
 Can range support all MCIS system use?  Is audio/visual and instrumentation required?  If digital equipment is not provided, where can the unit place a Tactical Operations Center?

Where are the following range operations and control areas (ROCAs):

Barriers locations /guard posts?

Mess area?

Latrine?

Helipad or MEDEVAC landing zone?

Aid station or defined medic support location?

Troop break and billet or bivouac areas?

Briefing and debriefing area (AAR facility)? What are the AAR capabilities on the range?

Wheel vehicle parking area?

Concurrent training area?

What are the expendable supplies required to support the range? Personal hygiene, cleaning supplies?

How can the scenarios be used to maximize crew throughput?

How much time should be planned for re-training?

How can the digital gunnery be trained during live fire gunnery?

Are the personnel available?

What risks are associated conducting both simultaneously?

## Section Ii - Digital Range Requirements

4-11. The unit develops scenarios for all training tables and events. Ready to use training tables can be located on the DMG website at: http://usacac.army.mil/organizations/mccoe/dots/mission-command-master-gunner  (under the Digital Training Tables tab) Developing crew simulations and scenarios can be executed as an independent TOCEX or as augmentation to maneuver events to include small arm, wheeled, and tracked gunnery exercises. The first step in developing a digital scenario is to identify the facility that supports the unit training objectives.

## Digital Range Or Training Area Considerations

4-12. Units must consider several factors to determine the training location for digital training events. Units and
the digital triad (DMG, S6, KM) can refine the following questions to identify the scope of the training event and
identify the best facility to meet the training requirements. Keep in mind that a TOC setup close to the unit area
can serve as a viable digital training location. Once complete, the unit must conduct a range reconnaissance before
developing the scenario to ensure the facility meets the intent of training:

What tables are you testing?

Do the tables scheduled to be tested require integration between systems or can the system operator
execute the table on a standalone system.

How many and what MCISs will be employed?

Does the power available at the training site support all TOC Operations or does the unit need to provide its own power?

Will the exercise be run on a closed network? If not, is there a way to connect to the network at the
training site?

What types of after action review capabilities are available on the range?
4-13. When selecting a location to conduct training, it is imperative to consider the digital range as well. The digital range will encompass the network on which the tables will be trained. In the case of Digital Tables I and II, the digital range can encompass as little as the hard drive on a single system or as much as the sum total of a Division or CORP TOC's Mission Command Operating Systems. By understanding the digital tables and the required training objectives for each table, Digital Master Gunners can schedule stand-alone digital crew training events or work with the staff to incorporate digital training tables into already scheduled training. 4-14. Most Army installation MTCs provide the capabilities to execute digital gunnery in a closed environment.

This allows the training unit to focus on digital crew skills as opposed to trouble shooting network architecture which will reduce the amount of training time available. Close coordination between the DMG and MTC staff ICW the S6 is required to ensure all systems are communicating properly. While not mandatory, it is recommended that a unit train on their assigned equipment, instead of MTC provided equipment. Exercising the units equipment will ensure problems with MTOE equipment are identified early, annotated, and fixed prior to deployments. 4-15. The family of Army ranges provides a training venue for most digital systems as well. This is especially important when running digital training tables and maneuver training concurrently. Each maneuver range provides various capabilities based on the training focus of the facility. DMGs and planners must be familiar with the composition of each range type, their capabilities, intended use, and the range operations control area (ROCA)
facilities associated with each. TC 25-8, Training Ranges, provides detailed information on the Army's family of maneuver ranges and their capabilities.

## Digital Communication During Training

4-16. Digital Gunnery Tables not only test the operator and digital crew's ability to operate their assigned mission command information system within their war fighting function, but also their proficiency in sending digital information to another MCIS located in the TOC/CP to populate a COP. If conducted in conjunction with life fire gunnery exercises, messages will be required to be received and sent to FBCB2/JCR/BFT enabled vehicles conducting life fire training.

## Preparation

4-17. The Digital Master Gunner, the Knowledge Manager, and the Unit S-6 should ensure that all MCISs are configured properly and operational prior to the start of the digital training tables. Units should conduct a COMMEX on a closed network at least two weeks prior to the live fire to ensure success.

## Data Sets

4-18. Each digital scenario requires a data set consisting of a digital script and one or more overlays. Scenarios can be found at the On the Digital Master Gunner Webpage. This provides users an easy method to distribute the data sets to any MCIS located on the network. 4-19. Units must ensure all addresses are set correctly on each MCIS. Failure to correctly set up the individual MCIS will eliminate a digital crew's ability to seamlessly integrate with the other MCISs during the exercise. The DMG will be required to coordinate with the S6 for the information listed in Table 4-1 below:

## Required Network Information By System

DNS Server (2x normally)
CPOF
GCCS-A
IP Address
IP Address
Subnet Mask
Subnet Mask
Network Gateway
Network Gateway
DNS Server (2x normally)
GCCS-A COP zone IP
CPOF master server IP
GCCS-A Access Key
COPF DataBridge IP
C2R Server IP (if using CMP messaging)
CPOF VOIP/RA server IP
Host Name
C2R Server IP (if using CMP messaging) Hostname IP Address Subnet Mask Network Gateway DNS Server (2x normally) DDS Server IP and User Name and Password C2R Server IP (if using CMP messaging) Hostname

4-20. Prior to the start of the digital training exercise units should understand the commander's intent and have an SOP for knowledge management. Units should also have a standard for their common operational picture (COP). Knowing what the Commander required on his COP to develop his situational understanding is critical to the overall training objectives. 4-21. Each units COPs will be different based on the unit's mission, METL, individual SOPs, and how their Commander processes information. At a minimum, the COP should contain base maneuver graphics, friendly unit location, projected and confirmed enemy locations.

## Personnel Responsibilities

4-22. DMG: The Digital Master Gunner is the commander's mission command information system technical advisor of the capabilities and limitations of all platform-specific systems. The DMG helps the Commander and the staff plan, develop, and conduct digital crew and system integration training. He develops scenarios based on commander's guidance and previous assessments. Key areas of focus for the Master Gunner include


External resources are ready, such as
 Range availability  Power supply  Network Connectivity  Signal Maintenance assets.

Crews are prepared by
 Meeting all digital prerequisites.  Maintaining training records.

MCISs are prepared for the training events.
 Shortage Annex complete on 2062 indicating any missing components
 Verified most up to date software installed
4-23. KM: The Knowledge Manager is responsible for the SOPs regarding the storage of information. They work in coordination with the DMG and the S6 to ensure that MCIS operators know how and where to store information for rapid access. The KM should also work with the DMG to ensure that the scenarios used during the Digital Training Tables stress the KM SOPs in order to validate and refine the processes. The KM will be heavily involved during the execution of the digital tables. 4-24. S6: While the DMG is an expert in the integration of the digital systems the S6 provides the network to allow the systems to communicate. They need to work with the MDG to ensure that information is flowing correctly to and from the DDS. The S6 will need to help the DMG by providing the information required to correctly set up the MCISs. The S6 will also assist the DMG troubleshoot any issues with system communication during the execution of the digital tables.

## Section Iii - Scenario Development

4-25. Once the training area is selected and the appropriate scale of the digital range is identified, the unit must
develop training scenarios to support the training events scheduled. The commander's guidance and intent are implemented into the scenario including:

Common operating picture SOPs

Commander's Intent for the exercise

Skills to be trained

Digital crew rosters

Reporting formats

Inclusion of all MCIS assigned to the unit.

Assigned missions and future operating environments.

Required Digital Crew and Operator abilities.

## Scenario Requirements

4-26. A full scenario is not required to train the digital table. DMGs should, however, provide their operators an Area of Operation (AO) to operate within. Providing an AO will facilitate the sharing of graphics and ensure that evaluators are not required to "hunt" for items placed on a global map. 4-27. Prior to developing a scenario, it is important to understand the commander's intent for the exercise. Understanding what skills and abilities the commander wants the digital crews to master along with the commanders desired level of integration between digital and live training will give the DMGs the framework to develop a scenario. 4-28. The level of complexity of the scenario will vary greatly from training exercise to training exercise. Scenarios can be as simple as a mission statement and area of operations to as complex as a full OPORD with annex. The detail required in the scenario will be determined by the commander with advice solicited from the digital triad and primary staff.

4-29. Scenario requirements will be based on the operators individual Mission Command Work Station. When developing scenarios, it is imperative to ensure that all MCIS assigned to the unit are implements. For example, if a unit is authorized and assigned an AMDWS, ensure the scenario for section tables incorporates an air defense plan than can be incorporated into the training table. 4-30. The scenario should leverage the use of tools necessary to conduct planning, compile information, and archive data in accordance with the units Knowledge Management and a Digital SOPs. Digital Master Gunners must design the scenario in such a way that operators are required to save their work for follow on crews. While this is not mandatory during the individual tables, any work created during Training Tables I and II can be saved and leveraged during follow-on training. 4-31. Digital Master Gunners can develop a digital scenario as complex or as simple as needed to complete the training objectives in the training tables. While a universal scenario useful to all tables is preferred, each table can be trained with a different scenario.

4-32. A list of prepackaged scenarios can be found on the DMG Website in Course Materials.

## Integration Of Digital Tables Into Other Training Events

4-33. Training tables are designed in such a way that they can be trained in conjunction with maneuver training exercise. Figures 4-1 and 4-2 on page 4-8 provide an example of how a unit can leverage already planned training events to simultaneously train the digital tables. Proper planning and coordination between the digital triad and S3 can assist in development of a scenario that will feed multiple training events.

4-34. Any training event that required the establishment and operation of a CP can serve to train digital gunnery
tables. As stated above the tasks in the digital gunnery tables can applied to a variety of scenarios from Live Fire
Gunnery Exercises to COMMEXs. Commander's intent is critical to the success of combining digital training tables and live training. Something to considering prior to executing digital tables in conjunction with live training:

Is the scenario for the training tables going to mirror the live training?

Are the digital battle drills going to be trained on a separate scenario during a lull in TOC operations
or as part of the training?

If the digital training tables are executed concurrently as part of the same scenario as live training, will
the live training drive the digital tables or can they be separated and trained at different speeds?

## Section Iv - Individual Tables (Table I-Ii)

4-35. The principles of training operators to effectively and efficiently employ their assigned Mission Command Information Systems include training to the fullest extent of the system's capabilities. In general, crews must be
able to effectively demonstrate their ability to employ their system through training and qualification to standards
laid out in the respective T&EOs. This includes their ability to:
 Setup and prepare the MCIS for operation  Employ their MCIS  Organize Data  Exercise Mission Command under degraded conditions  Share data and products with other MCIS  Implement appropriate permissions  Access data through the data bridge
4-36. Operators should not attempt digital Table 1 without previous knowledge of the MCIS. The digital tables are not designed to act as an operator's course. The majority of the Warfighting Function Centers of Excellence

## _____________________________Digital Range Operations, Requirements, And Scenario Development

offer operator courses and most Mission Training Centers (MTCs) offer a 40 hour MCWS/CPOF operators course. 4-37. Operators will qualify Table I prior to advancing to the other tables. This table ensures the digital operators have the required knowledge of their assigned MCIS to continue through the rest of the crew training tables. Without this knowledge, the operators will be unable to function as part of a digital crew. 4-38. DMGs can set a computer system as a "stand-alone CPOF" system. Use of the Import/Export tool allows digital operators to load any pre-planned scenario data onto a system without a network connection. By setting up a "stand-alone CPOF" operators can train tables I and II at their daily place of duty without having to set up an additional CP. Instruction for setup of a Stand Alone CPOF, can be found in APPENDIX A
4-39. Upon completion of Tables I and II, the Digital Master Gunner can use the qualification information to assist in the S3 in the development of the digital crews. Once established, the digital crews should be treated like a vehicle crew and protected against lateral movement as much as possible.

4-40. Training these tables on a controlled network is preferable, however all training in Digital Table I can be conducted by a single, standalone system. As shown in Figure 4-3, the MCIS does not have to be connected to a network in order to demonstrate proficiency in the operation of the system.

## Task Descriptions

4-41. The tasks required during Digital Training Tables I and II are geared towards the individual user and their ability to effectively employ their assigned MCISs. The tasks are written in terms of capabilities and skills which are applicable to all Mission Command Systems and are required to successfully share information across platforms.

4-42. The intent behind the individual tables is to show system proficiency with the individual's assigned MCIS. Information accuracy and scenario coordination is not the primary purpose during the Tables I-I.  These tables are designed to test an individual understanding of the system and assess the user's ability to enable communication laterally and across the warfighting functions and with the other users of the specific MCIS. 4-43. Each training table corresponds to a specific task an operator must execute. The tasks are defined by general capabilities associated with MCISs. MCWS/CPOF is the only exception with operators being required to perform additional tasks. These tasks are associated with operation in degraded environments, system integration, and knowledge management.

## Table I - Execute Basic Mcis Operations

4-44. This table is designed for individual operators. It will test the operator's ability to setup, operate, maintain, and troubleshoot their assigned MCIS.  Upon completion and certification, MCIS Operators are battle rostered by positions, becoming the basis for the Command Posts "Digital Crew." 4-45. Prior to starting the digital training tables, the Commander can tailor their digital crew to meet specific mission or unit requirements. Table 4-2 below lists a full roster of digital systems a brigade commander can use to tailor the digital crew. Not every system listed below must be included in the digital crew. See Chapter 2, The Digital Crew for an example digital crew selection. 4-46. MCWS/CPOF operators will be required to operate their system under degraded conditions (loss of connectivity) and reconcile data using the CPOF comparison tool. This skill is critical to the successful operation of the system during degraded operations where connectivity is unreliable. TTPs can be found in the CALL HANDBOOK: ABCS INTEGRATION

## Table Ii - Integrate Command Post Systems

4-47. This table will test an operator's ability to share information between MCISs using the DDS. It will test the Operators ability to share products between the MCWS/CPOF and other MCIS via the data dissemination service (DDS). Operators will also be able to implement appropriate permission to products within the MCIS. Quick reference guides for the various MCIS and other mission command tools can be found in APPENDIX D 4-48. Skills tested during this table will form the base of all integration. Operators who do not understand how to share information through the DDS will not be able to execute the follow on tables.

## Section V - Cell/Section Tables (Tables Iii-Vi)

4-49. The principles of training digital crews to effectively and efficiently employ their assigned Mission Command Information Systems include training to the fullest extent of the systems capabilities. In general, crews must be able to effectively demonstrate their ability to employ their system through training and qualification to standards laid out in the respective T&EOs. This includes their ability to

Establish a Common Operational Picture

Communicate with other MCISs

Manage SIGACTs using MCISs

Execute Battle Drills

Execute Collaborative Planning

Produce a Shared Plan using MCISs

Present Briefings

Archive work
4-50. Tables II-VI require an operational network to train effectively. In order for MCISs to share information, they must be connected to a network and DDS server through as router as shown in Figure 4-4. Prior coordination with the S6 will ensure connectivity during training tables.

4-51. Tables III-VI begin to test the digital crew's abilities to work across Warfighting functions. Digital crews will be required to execute planning on various MCISs and establish one consolidated common operating picture for the commander.

4-52. Prior development of digital, CP, and knowledge management SOPs will save DMGs a significant amount of time during training tables. Example SOPs can be found at the following on the Digital Master Gunner Website under the MCDMG Training Files tab. While SOP development should occur prior to the execution of the digital training tables, the training tables do provide an excellent opportunity to refine previously established SOPs. 4-53. Every effort should be made to ensure the digital crews remain the same across all the Warfighting functions for the duration of the training. Team dynamics are just as important to a digital crew as they are a tank crew. 4-54. Tables III-VI do not require a tightly synchronized scenario. With prior planning, the tables can be executed concurrently with already planned and resourced training. For example, the digital training scenario could easily be a battalion small arms density, or a brigade CPX. 4-55. Tasks in training tables III-VI focus on the system operators talking and integrating information across the war fighting functions. These tasks are created to facilitate the information flow between MCISs, however they do not require a synchronized scenario to execute. More attention should be given to the processes involved, not the accuracy or tactical correctness of decisions.

4-56. The intent behind Digital Gunnery Tables III-VI is to ensure digital crews have the ability to communicate laterally across the warfighting functions and vertically within their warfighting function. The tables are designed to assist in the flow of communication but aren't tied to the correctness of the information. Staff Sections will be required to send information across the DDS server which will trigger other sections to execute battle drills or update staff estimates.

## Section Vi - Integrated Staff Training Tables (Tables Vii-X)

4-57. The purpose of Mission Command Training Tables (MCTT) VII-X is to integrate the Commander, Staff, and digital crews across all the warfighting functions into a single operational digital Command Post. The Staff and digital crews will be able to leverage the MTOE digital MCISs to collectively analyze information and make timely recommendations to the commander. 4-58. The Commander, Staff, and Command Post are the training audience for these tables. The Digital crew will support the training objective of the Staff through the application of skills acquired during DTTs I-VI. During these tables the digital crew may be spread throughout various locations in the TOC as shown in Figure 4-5.

4-59. Every effort should be made to use only MTOE provided equipment and personnel. This will stress the backside network allowing digital crews, primary staff, and commanders a level of network support available during combat operations. Leveraging the installation MTC can assist in providing some of the backside network requirements necessary to operate 2 or 3 consecutive shifts for 24-48 hours, however, you will be unable to truly stress the systems within the intent of the training tables. 4-60. MCTT VII-X will be trained in conjunction with a Headquarters Training exercise (CPX, WFX, etc.)  The governing document for these tables is TC 6-0, Training the Mission Command Warfighting Function. Chapter 6 of this TC discusses the digital crew integration into the training exercise, however the digital crew is not the main training audience.

4-61. Tasks associated with Tables VII - X are all aimed at the integration of the commander, staff, and digital crews. In order to effectively train the tables, all the staff elements must come together as a collective team and leverage the MCISs to generate options and create understanding for the Commander.

4-62. For a more comprehensive listing of all tasks associated with Training Tables VII-X reference TC 6-0 Training the Mission Command Warfighting Function This page intentionally left blank.

## Individual And Digital Crew Tables (I - Vi)

Individual and Digital Crew Training Tables I - VI train and test the necessary skills required to successfully operate a digital crew. They are focused on the operator's ability to operate their individual Mission Command Information System (MCIS) and share the information created on that system across the DDS allowing for increased situation understanding across the warfighting functions. This chapter will describe how to run the Individual and digital crew training tables. Upon successful completion of the Table VI the digital crew will be considered fully qualified and will be ready to progress to the staff training tables. The staff training tables will be outlined in Chapter 6 of this publication. Information regard training the staff on the mission command warfighting function can be found in TC 6.0, Training the Mission Command Warfighting Function. Execution of the digital training tables requires significant support from the S6. The networks used by Mission Command Information Systems (MCIS) are established and managed by the S6. Prior to the execution of the digital training tables, the DMG will need to coordinate with the S6 to request the appropriate server and network support.

## Section I - Prerequisite Individual Tables (I-Ii)

5-1. The Digital Training Tables are designed to assist the Digital Master Gunner to integrate staff efforts into a common operating picture for the commander. The tables offer measurable outcomes for individual and collective tasks that provide a base operating level for the staff's performance. The tables are not designed to add additional tasks to the units training calendar, but to help the staff perform more effectively in supporting the commander's priorities. MCIS operators should be proficient on digital training tables I-II prior to starting testing on Tables III- VI.

## Table I - Execute Basic Mcis Operations

5-2. The Digital Master Gunner must assist the commander and staff in establishing mission command systems by ensuring that the proper equipment is ready for employment. The DMG should have an understanding of what each MCIS provides, and how to put that system into operation using basic operator system skills. Table I lists individual tasks that evaluate the performance of the digital crew in establishing the mission command structure according to unit SOP and the commander's guidance. The digital crew should train for forming the mission command architecture, initial set-up, and a "jump TOC" scenario. The digital crew should be prepared to update the commander and staff on the capabilities and limitations of each system.

5-3. While these tasks can be trained without a unit SOP it would significantly increase the effectiveness of the training if the units Digital SOPs were utilized as evaluation criteria during Digital Training Table I (DTT-I).

5-4. DMG responsibilities.

Create and maintain the unit's Digital Battle Roster

Plan training time/location for MCIS Operators

Evaluation and certification of MCIS operators

Coordination with G/S-6 to ensure all systems are connected, running and have compatible software

Development and distribution of training scenario - ensure all operators have required scenario to
ensure continuity on system

Understand and coach operators on unit's SOP for operations under degraded conditions.
5-5. System Operator responsibilities

Complete any MCIS system specific training

Understand System Architecture relating to Mission Command Information Systems

Be familiar with unit's Digital SOP

Understand how to employ their assigned MCIS under degraded conditions.

Execute all tasks associated with DTT-I.
5-6. Table Set Up and Execution: This tables can be executed simultaneously as a collective digital crew, or independently/Small groups allowing for the training of one or multiple crew members without having to assemble the entire digital crew. Regardless of which method is chosen to train this table, there are some aspects common to both. This section will address how to set up and execute both versions of the table.

## Set Up And Execution:

5-7. Gather the required materials. The Digital Master Gunner webpage has a plethora of materials that will aid in the execution of the digital tables. At a minimum, the DMG should print off or have access to a consolidated scenario that will synchronize the efforts of the MCIS operators. The practical exercises can serve as the basis of training the digital crew on DTTs I and II. 5-8. Leverage the established unit SOPs. When utilizing more than one shift, SOPs related to information organization on each system is critical. If SOPs for knowledge management and system organization are not created, digital crews will waste time each shift change trying to find information and reorganizing their work space to meet their individual needs. 5-9. Coordinate with the G/S-6 to establish the network allowing the MCIS to talk to each other. While this is not mandatory is will increase the effectiveness of the training. 5-10. Conduct PMCS on all hardware prior to execution to ensure functionality. Reference Table 5-1 Equipment List on the required and optional equipment used to conduct Table I.

5-11. Prior to allowing Soldiers to start DTT-I, ensure that the software installed on the systems are able to communicate. While it might not hinder communication within the staff, communication higher and lower can be hindered if the software versions are not compatible. It is preferable to have all systems on older software that can communicate than have one system on the latest version and unable to communicate with the other MCIS. 5-12. Dedicate time for the soldiers to be away from their current work environment. While the Soldiers can execute training tables I and II at their daily workstation, blocking a specific training time and removing them from other distractions will enhance the training value. 5-13. Compile training data once all crew members have completed training table I. All tables are completed on a GO/NO-GO criterion. 5-14. If any crew members are unable to achieve a GO, plan or coordinate for system specific retraining. This could involve re-familiarization with the unit digital SOP or require an additional system specific training from an outside agency. Each NO-GO will need to independently evaluated and corrected.

5-15. Conduct an AAR with each crew member/crew in order to provide feedback on performance and solicit recommendations to update the unit's digital SOP. 5-16. Update the digital crew roster and unit SOP with any changes made during the course of the training table.

## Collective Execution - Most Efficient And Preferred Method Of Training. Requires All Members Of The Digital Crew To Be Present For Training.

5-17. The DMG will locate and reserve a training area suitable to set up all MCISs assigned to your HQ. This could be as simple as a BN level conference room, or a complex as setting up a TOC. The location will work as long as there is power and space for all required MCISs. 5-18. The DMG will verify the digital roster to ensure that all required personnel are present for training. Make any changes to the battle roster as needed. If the systems are available, both the day and night crews can train at the same time, however both shifts cannot work on the same systems at the same time. If there are not enough system for each member to have their own the day and night digital crews will have to be trained separately. 5-19. Once compete, the digital crew members will be allowed to start execution of the digital table. The DMG will serve as the evaluator for DTT-I. 5-20. In order to train the last task of the DTTs MCWS/CPOF operators will be required to exercise mission command under degraded conditions. Once a digital crew member has completed tasks 1 through 4, the DMG will evaluate the crewmember's work. If the training tables was conducted without the use of a system network, then no further action is required. If a network was established by the G/S-6, the DMG will unplug the network cable from the MCWS (CPOF) and allow the operator to demonstrate system operation in network degraded conditions.

## Independent/Small Group Execution - Least Efficient Method Of Training. Can Be Used If All Members Of The Digital Crew Cannot Be Brought Together At A Specific Time.

5-21. The DMG will verify the digital crew roster and coordinate individually with each system operator for a training time. 5-22. Once the training schedule has been created, the DMG will reserve appropriate locations to train the individual crew members. If training a small group, remember that the location must have enough space and power to accommodate all system to be trained.

Chapter 5_____________________________________________________________________________
5-23. Distribute the unit digital SOP (if present) and scenario used for the training table. Because this is not a time-consuming event, this can be done at one collective time with all the crew members or prior to each individual crew member start time. 5-24. The DMG will serve as the evaluator and observe each crew member/small group during execute the tasks associated with the DTT and ensure they are able to meet the system specific tasks.

5-25. Once complete, record the individual/small groups results, adjust the digital crew roster as needed, and plan NO-GO retraining as appropriate. Table 5-2 can serve as GO/NO-GO check sheet allowing the DMG to evaluate each individual crew member during the execution of the tables. It also provides the T&EO references for each task.

## General Learning Outcome For Crew Proficiency

5-26. The desired outcome is that all system operators demonstrate an individual mastery of their assigned MICIS.
Upon completion of this table, system operators should possess the skills required to execute the following tasks:

Setup the MCIS for operation

Prepare the MCIS for Operation

Employ the MCIS for Operation

Organize data on the MCWS (CPOF)

Exercise Mission Command under degraded conditions.
5-27. Use the score card located in APPENDIX B to evaluate the digital crew during training.

## Table Ii - Integrate Command Post Systems

5-28. Digital Training Table II provides standards based training for the integration of efforts across each MCIS
according to War Fighting Function. The execution of Table II is vital to prevent the duplication of staff products while allowing for parallel planning aligned with the most current guidance. The digital crew must be effective in ensuring the staff has the ability to share, view, and edit plans efficiently. This table builds on the tasks outlined in Table 1 and requires the entire digital crew to be present for the integration of all systems. The DMG will coordinate through the G/S-6 to establish a network connection between the Data Distribution System (DDS) and the individual MCIS. Unit SOPs should be available for updates as after action reviews are conducted and tasks are refined.

5-29. DMG responsibilities:

Maintain the unit's Digital Battle Roster.

Coordinate with G/S-6 for system network

Evaluation and certification of MCIS operators

Development and distribute training scenario - ensure all operators have required scenario to ensure
continuity on system

Plan and conduct retraining as needed

Maintain unit Digital SOPs capturing any changes made during the training tables.
5-30. All equipment required to successfully complete DTT-II is shown below in Table 5-3.

5-31. System Operator responsibilities

Previously qualified on DTT-I

Understand and provide useful input into with unit's Digital SOP

Execute all tasks associated with DTT-II.

Provide SME advice to the DMG on their assigned MCIS. While the DMG is an expert sharing
information, they do not necessarily possess the operational expertise in each MCIS.

## Set Up And Execution

5-32. Site selection for DTT-II is the same as site section for the collective DTT-I. As long as the site selected can accommodate all MCISs assigned to the digital crews (i.e. 1x MCWS/CPOF, 1s AMDWS, 1x TAIS, 1x AFATDS, 1 JCR, 1 GCCS-A) along with the G/S-6 servers required to make a network, the location will work.

MTCs might possess training rooms established that meet this requirement, however, it is preferable to train on the units assigned equipment, this will enable the unit to troubleshoot their own system prior to unit training exercises. Figure 5-1 below shows a potential set up using a battalion classroom as the training location.

5-33. Coordinate with the G/S-6 to set up the network. Without a network, operators will not be able to publish or subscribe to products posted to the DDS. The G/S-6 can create a closed network as NIPR net is not required for the operation of these systems 5-34. The DMG will have their own MCWS/CPOF attached to the network. This CPOF will serve as the grading station and ensure that the digital crew members are correctly publishing their products to the DDS. The figure below shows one example of a generic classroom. The systems are setup on tables with the server and instructor CPOF located in the back of the classroom.

5-35. While not mandatory, it is recommended that the evaluator and S6 both have their own MCWS/CPOF.

These additional CPOFs can serve as a grading station and networking monitoring stations which will greatly increase the speed of the exercise without sacrificing training time.

5-36. Once the network is established and all operators are at their station, the DMG will distribute the scenario. The DMG can create their own scenario tailored to assigned unit missions or they can use prefabricated practical exercises taken from the DMG school house. An example scenario can be found in APPENDIX C or can be downloaded from the Digital Master Gunner Webpage. Creation of a consolidated scenario will make it easier for the DMG to check the operators work. 5-37. Prior to operators working on the system, ensure to get the following information from the G/S-6. Without this information, the system operators will be unable to successfully publish or subscribe to the DDS. 5-38. Table 5-4 details information the MCIS operators require in order to properly setup their MCIS:
5-39. At the time of publication Network Information requirements for JCR is in the process of being created and validated. 5-40. Once operators receive the scenario, the DMG will brief what task will be trained. Operators will be left alone to execute the tasks and create the graphics associated with their MCIS.

EXAMPLE: The AFATDS operator would be responsible for the creation and publication of restricted fire areas, no fire area, and targets.
5-41. When operators have identified they are complete with their assigned tasks, the DMG will use the tree viewer on the instructor station CPOF to ensure the information is published correctly. Table 5-5 can serve as GO/NO-GO check sheet allowing the DMG to evaluate each individual crew member during the execution of the tables. It also provides the T&EO references for each task.

5-42. The DMG will consolidate GO/NO-GOs as the system operators work through DTT-II. Upon completion of the DTT, Soldiers requiring retraining will work with the DMG to identify the reasons behind their NO-GO and select the correct retraining method to correct the deficiency. 5-43. The DMG will run an AAR collectively with all the digital crew members. The AAR will not only focus on the operator's performance but will also address issues with the unit's SOPs. Following the AAR, the DMG will make any necessary changes to the unit's digital SOP.

## General Learning Outcome For Crew Proficiency

5-44. Upon completion of the tables the DMG will make any necessary changes to the digital crew roster. 5-45. Upon completion of DTT-II, individual MCIS operators will be proficient in the integration of their assigned MCIS with the DDS. The crew member will be able to publish their data to and subscribe from the DDS. Operators and the MCDMG not able to publish and subscribe will be able to perform basic system troubleshooting through the tree viewer, individual system troubleshooting flowcharts, and the digital dashboard in order to "digitally see themselves."

## Section Ii - Section Tables

5-46. Section tables are designed to test the digital crew's ability to operate as a team and share relevant information across platforms that provide a common situational understanding for the commander.

## Table Iii - Develop The Common Operational Picture

5-47. Digital Training Table III begins the process of integrating individual MCIS data by warfighting function to provide a common operating picture for the commander. The execution of Table III is vital to the success of the staff and assists the commander in visualizing the mission. This table requires the digital crew to integrate efforts that will assist the commander in making timely decisions. The DMG should deliver a class on the unit's digital SOP to all digital crew members. This class should specifically focus on information to display the common operating picture, naming conventions, and knowledge management. The digital crew must consider the unit's digital SOP in order to present a useful picture to the commander that will allow for shared understanding at echelon. 5-48. In order to execute this DTT, an unclassified closed restricted network is required. The DMG will coordinate with the G/S-6 at least 2 weeks prior to execution to ensure all required computer network architecture will be available for training. 5-49. The desired outcome of DTT-III is a digital crew that understands how to network MICSs and share information allowing the Command Post to analyze information, make recommendations, and integrate/synchronize resources. 5-50. The digital crew must be familiar with the unit's digital SOP. This class should specifically focus on information to display based on the commander's guidance.

5-51. DMG responsibilities

Class on Digital SOP prior to execution (Optional but highly recommended)

Coordinate with G/S-6 for required network architecture

Locate/Reserve training location

Ensure all required equipment is present at the testing site to include some form of projection
equipment.

Validate Digital Crew Roster and DTT-I and II scores

Development and briefing of training scenario

Ensure MCIS are loaded with the correct version of software

Troubleshoot any MCIS connectivity issues

Evaluation of Digital Crew

Plan and conduct retraining, as needed

Conduct AAR with both digital crews and individual operators.

Maintain unit Digital SOPs capturing any changes made during the training tables.
5-52. Table 5-6 lists the equipment required to successfully complete DTT-III.

5-53. System Operator responsibilities

Understand Unit's Digital SOP

Provide basic troubleshooting on assigned MCIS

Execute all tasks associated with DTT-III.

Provide SME advice to the DMG on their assigned MCIS.

Suggest refinements to the units digital and KM SOPs.

## Set Up And Execution

5-54. DTT-III can be trained in one of two ways, as part of a larger unit training exercise or as its own training event. Either method requires the presence of all digital crew members. Without all crew members present during validation, the digital crew cannot be considered "fully qualified." 5-55. The DMG must have print out of the Training and Evaluation Outlines (T&EOs) associated with the each of the tasks in DTT-III. These T&EOs can be found in the Combined Arms Registry at the following link: https://rdl.train.army.mil/catalog/dashboard 5-56. The same equipment required for DTT-II will be required for DTT-III with the addition of some form of projection capability. In order to successfully execute the DTT-III, the COP must be displayed at the front of the training area (TOC or classroom) 5-57. Brief the Commander on the digital SOP and ensure the DMG understands the intent in regards to graphics to display on the unit COP. 5-58. If units are not present to represent higher and lower echelon elements, the DMG must create drop boxes in the tree viewer to simulate the other echelons.

## Part Of Unit Training Exercise

5-59. The DMG will coordinate with the S3 in order to assimilate the digital crew into the training exercise. While still part of the training exercise it is recommended that the digital crew still use a canned scenario to train in order to prevent any real-world implications. In order to create a relevant scenario, the DMG must understand the commander's intent and overall purpose of the entire training exercise prior to execution of DTT-III. This will allow the digital crew to enable mission command of real world incidents instead of acting as a separate training audience.

5-60. Deliberately plan DTT-III to nest in the larger exercise. Some days could be better suited to train DTT-III
tasks than others. Events to look for that would enhance DTT-III testing would be events with several moving elements, or major planning efforts. Ensure that the digital crew training does not become a training distractor from the unit training event being conducted as that could cause negative real-world consequences. 5-61. If the exercise is not a 24-hour exercise, develop a rotational schedule that allows both the day and night digital crews to be trained. Both crew members should not be working on the same system at the same time while the DTT-III is being evaluated. 5-62. Throughout the course of the exercise, solicit feedback and guidance from the Commander, S3 and XO. This will help refine the digital SOP throughout the execution of this DTT.

## Stand Alone Training Exercise

5-63. The DMG will coordinate for a location capable of supporting all the required equipment MTOE equipment. The location must be able to supply power to all assigned digital crew's MTOE equipment.

5-64. Coordinate with the G/S-6 to create an "unclassified closed restricted network." This is the same type of network that was used in DTT-II. 5-65. Ensure that the location has the ability to project an image from the MCWS/CPOF station. This projection
(either projector on a flat screen or TV) will be the display COP and will serve as the basis for battle management. Figure 5-2 provides an example of how to set up a standalone training location for DTT-III.

5-66. The evaluator's MCWS/CPOF should be separate from the MCWS/CPOF used to project the COP. This will allow the DMG to individually evaluate the submission from the digital crew members without effect the COP display. 5-67. Distribute the training scenario to the digital crews. The training scenario should leverage the capabilities of all the MCISs rostered on the digital crew. An example scenario can be found in APPENDIX C or in the Mission Command Digital Master Gunner Course Webpage. 5-68. Once all systems are connected, the DMG will drive the DTT with injects forcing the digital crew members to use their MCIS to alter the COP. If possible, each inject should trigger action from multiple or all digital crew members. 5-69. Injects should be given to the crew as a whole considering they could involve more than one MCIS. Even if the inject does not require an information change on the COP, digital crew members should still think through how the inject would affect the war fighting function. 5-70. The injects should be simple and not require the collective use of a battle drill. The intent of injects are to drive the MCIS operators to have to make a change on the COP, not react to an SIGACT.

5-71. While conducting the DTT, ensure that the MCIS are communicating over multiple devices. Digital crew members should be able to communicate both vocally and through the MCWS/CPOF tactical messaging Center. 5-72. During execution of DTT-III, the evaluator should walk around and quiz the digital crew members on the information that is displayed and ensure they understand the purpose behind the information displayed on the COP. Table 5-7 provides a breakdown of tasks and associated T&EOs to help guide the DMG during their evaluation. 5-73. The unit's digital SOP can supplement the grading rubric for this DTT. If possible, the Commander, S3, or XO should observe and make recommendation on the COP display to align with the commander's intent. At this stage, it is more important that the digital crew understand how to manipulate a digital COP than have a 100%
solution in regards to COP display and commander's intent. 5-74. Once all injects have been completed, the DMG will assess each digital crew member with a GO/NO-GO
for their tasks. Soldiers who receive a NO-GO will be retrained and reassessed.

5-75. Conduct an AAR with individual system operators and the digital crew as a whole. Specific focus on the solicitation of recommendations to make changes to the digital SOP, unit battle drills, and KM SOP. 5-76. If possible, invite the CDR, S3, or XO to attend the AAR so the digital crew can better understand the commander's intent. This will also provide the CDR, S3 or XO a level of understanding on the capabilities and limitation of the digital crews.

## General Learning Outcome For Crew Proficiency

5-77. At the conclusion of DTT-3 Digital crews will be proficient in the communication between the MCIS and the MCWS/CPOF, and using the information created on their system to display a single COP. The digital crew understands how to network MCISs and share information allowing the Command Post to analyze information, make recommendations, and integrate/synchronize resources.

## Table Iv - Execute Battle Management

5-78. The purpose of Digital Training Table IV (DTT-IV) is to prepare Digital Crew Members to execute battle management. Table IV builds on Table III skills of COP Development and prepares the Digital Crew to execute Battle Management of their Digital Systems in order to provide recommendations for the Commander. Battle Management digital skills include the ability of Digital Crewmembers to manage the transition of information from planning to current operations to support the Commander's information requirements. The end state of Table IV is the Digital Crew demonstrating their ability to operationalize their Commander's Intent for a Digital COP.

5-81. System Operator responsibilities

Understand unit battle drills

Assist with set up of the training location, if required

Provide basic troubleshooting on assigned MCIS

Execute all tasks associated with DTT-IV.

Provide SME advice to the DMG on their assigned MCIS.

Suggest refinements to the unit's digital SOP and battle drills.

## Setup And Execution

5-82. DTT-IV can be trained in one of two ways, as part of a larger unit training exercise or as its' own training event. Either method requires the presence of all digital crew members. Without all crew members present during validation, the digital crew cannot be considered "fully qualified."
5-83. Specific requirements for each method of execution are listed below.

5-84. The DMG must have print out of the Training and Evaluation Outlines (T&EOs) associated with the each of the tasks in DTT-IV. These T&EOs can be found in the Combined Arms Registry (CAR) at the following link: https://rdl.train.army.mil/catalog/dashboard 5-85. The same equipment required for DTT-III will be required for DTT-IV. (see fig 5-8 above for full listing of required equipment) 5-86. Brief the S3, and/or XOs on the battle drills, SIGACT management SOP, and the CP update briefing SOP. An example list of battle drills can be found in the MCWS/CPOF library and in APPENDIX E Prior to the start of DTT-IV, the DMG should have a full understanding of what information the Commander, S3, and XO desire to receive in order to make decision.

5-87. If units are not present to represent higher and lower echelon elements, the DMG must create drop boxes in the tree viewer to simulate the other echelons. These drop boxes are necessary for several of the training tasks.

5-88. It is critical that the correct information is displayed or readily available on the COP at all times. As a method to test the update briefing, provide the leadership with the scenario and invite them to walk through the digital training tables as they are being executed. 5-89. When giving the update brief, ensure that the focus is on the projected COP in the front of the training room. Do NOT allow the G/S-3 CPOF operator to give a desk side / over the shoulder brief.

5-90. While conducting the DTT, ensure that the MCISs are communicating digitally, via the network. Digital crew members should also be able to communicate both vocally and through the MCWS/CPOF tactical messaging center. 5-91. The unit's digital SOP, Plans SOP, scenario driven CCIR and SIGACTs, as well as Unit Command Post Update Briefing template will serve as the grading rubric for this DTT. If possible the Commander, S3, or XO should observe and make recommendation on the COP display to align with the commander's intent. At this stage, it is more important that the digital crew understand how to manipulate a digital COP than have a 100%
solution in regards to COP display and commander's intent. 5-92. Once all tasks have been completed, the DMG will assess each digital crew member with a GO/NO-GO for their tasks. Soldiers who receive a NO-GO will be retrained and reassessed. The digital crew as a whole will also receive a GO/NO-GO rating. 5-93. Conduct an AAR with individual system operators and the digital crew as a whole. Specific focus should be on the solicitation of recommendations to make changes to the digital SOP, unit battle drills, and KM SOP.

5-94. If possible, invite the CDR, S3, or XO to attend the AAR so the digital crew can better understand the commander's intent. This will also provide the commander, S3 or XO a level of understanding on the capabilities and limitation of the digital crews.

## Part Of Unit Training Exercise

5-95. The DMG will coordinate with the S3 in order to assimilate the digital crew into the training exercise. The DMG must understand the commander's intent and overall purpose of the entire training exercise prior to execution of DTT-IV. While a digital crew can enable real world mission command they should also be their own training audience. 5-96. While the digital crew is its own training audience, write a training scenario that is similar to and supports the unit training event. MCIS systems can be leveraged to assist the unit in real world battle tracking. For example, if a unit is conducting a Field Artillery live fire, the unit's AFATDS will be used to create and distribute real world no fire areas. While the real-world application of no fire areas should not be tested during the digital training tables the scenario should include this task. This method will take more coordination between the DMG and the S3, however, the training value will be much greater than if the digital crew trained as a separate entity.

5-97. Deliberately plan DTT-IV to nest in the larger exercise. Some days could be better suited to train DTT-IV
tasks than others. Events to look for that would enhance DTT-IV testing would be life fire events, major planning efforts, and logistic heavy operations. 5-98. Get a list of the training exercise CCIR and SIGACTs. These information requirements will drive the majority of the DTT and will provide excellent real-world application for the digital crew. 5-99. Depending on the level of prior planning, the DMG could have to produce a separate plan in order to fulfill the "Develop a Collaborative Mission Plan" task (Task # 150-DMG-3007).

5-100. If the exercise is not a 24-hour exercise, develop a rotational schedule that allows both the day and night digital crews to be trained. Both crew members should not be working on the same system at the same time while the DTT-IV is being evaluated. 5-101. Throughout the course of the exercise, solicit feedback and guidance from the Commander, S3 and XO.

This will help refine the digital SOP.

## Standalone Training Exercise

5-102. The DMG should have a good knowledge of how the units TOC will be arranged and make every effort to arrange the training location in a similar fashion to the unit TOC. Location of Warfighting Functions can greatly improve or hinder mission command. 5-103. The DMG will coordinate for a location capable of supporting all the required equipment MTOE
equipment. The location must be able to supply power to all assigned MTOE equipment from the digital crew 5-104. If possible, avoid use of the presaged room at the MTC for initial DTT-VI qualification. By forcing the use of unit MTOE equipment, operators will understand the nuanced issues with their MTOE equipment and will be more effective when deployed. 5-105. Coordinate with the G/S-6 to create an "unclassified closed restricted network." This is the same type of network that was used in DTT-II and DTT-III. 5-106. Ensure that the location has the ability to project an image from the MCWS/CPOF station. This projection (either projector on a flat screen or TV) will be the display COP and will serve as the basis for battle management.

Figure 5-3 provides an example of how to set up a standalone the training location for DTT-IV.

5-107. The evaluator MCWS/CPOF should be separate from the MCWS/CPOF used to project the COP. This will allow the DMG to individually evaluate the submission from the digital crew members without effecting the COP display. 5-108. Distribute the training scenario to the digital crews. The training scenario should leverage the capabilities of all the MCISs rostered on the digital crew. An example scenario can be found in APPENDIX C or in the Mission Command Digital Master Gunner Course Website. 5-109. While not required it is easiest to execute the tasks separately and in order as written in the digital tables.

Evaluating these tasks separately will enable the digital crew to see how they work independent of each other prior to executing them simultaneously in Digital Training Tables V and VI. 5-110. Once all systems are connected the DMG will drive the DTT with injects forcing the digital crew members to use their MCIS to conduct battle drills, identify CCIR, battle track units, and manage SIGACTs. The task associated with DTT- IV can be found in Table 5-9 with associated T&EOs

Individual or Collective
Tasks
150-DMG-3007

5-111. Injects should be given to the crew as a whole considering they could involve more than one MCIS. All SIGACTS should trigger each member of the Digital Crew to execute some action on their MCIS. Injects should be complex enough to force the digital crew members to collaborate and share information across the DDS.

5-112. When conducting the "Develop a Collaborative Plan" Task, the intent is to ensure that the system operators can plan simultaneously and develop a coherent plan with their digital crew counterparts. The plan should be evaluated on the use of system to create the plan, not the feasibility or tactical brilliance of the plan.

## General Learning Outcome For Crew Proficiency

5-113. At the completion of DTT-4 the digital crew members will be proficient in using their MCIS to  battle track, manage SIGACTS, execute battle drills, update running estimates, identify/synchronize resources, and identify CCIR events in order to make recommendations to the commander.

## Table V & Vi - Mission Command Information System Rehearsal & Digital Crew Certification

5-114. The purpose of Digital Training Tables V and VI are to rehearse establishing the Common Operating Picture (COP) then certify the ability of the Digital Section on COP establishment. Successful completion of Digital Training Table VI will validate the Digital Section's ability to integrate into the Staff for Collective Digital Training (DTT-VII to X). 5-115. For the remainder of this chapter DTT V and VI will be referred to as the Qualification Tables.

5-116. The intent of the Qualification Tables are to train the Digital Crew to perform in a deployed "real world" environment. DTT - V serve as a certification rehearsal while DTT VI certifies the digital section.

5-117. The desired end state is a Digital Crew prepared to leverage their MCISs to enable the Mission Command War Fighting Function. Certified Digital Sections should be able to plan an operation using their assigned MCIS and not rely on PowerPoint, Excel, or Word. Through leveraging the MCIS system, a digital crew will enable the Chain of Command's ability to rapidly disseminate critical information.

5-118. DMG responsibilities

Consolidate unit SOPs

Coordinate with G/S-6 for required network architecture

Locate/Reserve training location

Conduct set up of training location

Ensure all required equipment is present at the testing site to include some form of projection equipment.

5-120. The two CPOF systems listed as support equipment are optional. They can serve as the evaluation CPOF
and S6 network monitoring CPOF. While not required for the training tables, they can greatly assist in troubleshooting network problems.

5-121. System Operator responsibilities

Understand unit battle drills

Assist with set up of the training location, if required

Provide basic troubleshooting on assigned MCIS

Execute all tasks associated with DTT-IV.

Provide SME advice to the DMG on their assigned MCIS.

Suggest refinements to the unit's digital SOP and battle drills.

## Setup And Execution

5-122. Like previous tables, the qualification tables can be conducted in conjunction with another training exercise or as a standalone event for the digital crew. Based on the time commitment of the Qualification Tables, it is recommended to conduct these as standalone training events, if possible. 5-123. This section is written towards conducting the Qualification Tables as standalone exercise. Special considerations for conducting the Qualification Tables as part of an exercise are listed in a separate section below. 5-124. The easiest way to train the Qualification Tables is to start with a developed training scenario. This will allow the digital crew to complete all training tasks to include COP development, battle tracking, and asset allocation.

Chapter 5_____________________________________________________________________________
5-125. When setting up the training site keep the layout as close to the units CP set up as possible (like DTT-IV).

This will facilitate the integration of the staff and the digital crew for Digital Training Tables VII-X. Set up for previous tables was based on ease of evaluation. This tables needs to look like the units CP. Coordinate with the S3 and Ops SGM on the unit specific CP set up and attempt to mirror the layout as much as possible during DTTs V and VI.  Figure 5-4 provides an example set-up for Digital Training Tables V and VI.

5-126. An S3 approved scenario will drive the Qualification Tables. Coordinate with the S3 to develop a scenario tailored towards the commander's objective or your unit's assigned missions. If the unit does not have assigned mission scenarios, example scenarios can be found in APPENDIX C or in the Mission Command Digital Master Gunner Course Website. 5-127. Once the training site has been set up and the network is established, the DMG (or acting commander) should brief the digital crew on the scenario, the unit's mission, and provide a brief overview of the base order. 5-128. Allow the digital crew to conduct a planning exercise similar to that in DTT-IV. The primary difference between DTT-IV and the Qualification Tables is the digital crew will actually execute the plan as part of their evaluation. While it still does not have to be a tactically sound, it must be able to be virtually executed.

5-129. Units will conduct an abbreviated MDMP session with the DMG providing on the spot corrections to the digital crews. Digital crew members are not expected to be masters of MDMP, however they need to be familiar with the MDMP Process in order to effectively enable mission command and execution of DTTs V and VI.

5-130. At a minimum, the DMG should require the digital crew to conduct:

Receive OPORD and develop running estimates

Conduct Mission Analysis with associated WARNO distribution

Conduct COA Development

Conduct a COA Approval Brief

Develop and distribute an OPROD
5-131. Excellent resources on the MDMP process can be found on the Combined Arms Registry and Army Training Network.

5-132. The digital crew will develop a digital OPORD. At a minimum, the ORPOD must include:

AO/AI overview

Enemy and friendly forces disposition

Friendly mission and commander's intent

Execution timeline

Friendly maneuver graphics

Unit locations

Subordinate task and purpose

CCIR

Decision support matrix (DSM)
5-133. When developing the digital OPORD, keep in mind that the intent to have all digital crew members involved. In order to be evaluated properly, every member of the digital crew must be engaged in the process. 5-134. Once the digital planning is complete, the digital crew will conduct an OPORD brief. Every crew member should have a speaking role during the briefing covering information specific to their part of the OPORD.

5-135. Following the OPORD brief, the digital crew will execute the plan. Training enablers in the form of response cells, or white cells, will control the reporting to and from higher and lower echelon units as well as supporting and supported units. 5-136. The training enablers should be briefed on the plan and the intent. The DMG will provide scripts for the white cells to ensure that all required tasks are trained. 5-137. It is recommended that the DMG select an outside NCO or Officer to help execute the scenario. The outside NCO can run the training event allowing the DMG to focus their efforts on evaluation.

5-138. During execution the digital crew will be evaluated on

Development of the COP

Providing relevant information to the command IOT facilitate situational understanding.

Graphically depict the COP using the MCWS/CPOF in accordance with the units digital SOP and the
commander's intent.

Present graphically, through the use of Conduct Battlefield Update Briefs and Battlefield Updates Assessment, updated information from running estimates.
5-139. There is no time limit associated with the planning or execution phases. Each unit will run this differently based on their unit's SOP. At a minimum, the digital crew should brief at least one commander's update brief based on changes made during execution. 5-140. Once all tasks have been completed, the DMG will assess each digital crew member with a GO/NO-GO for their tasks. Soldiers who receive a NO-GO will be retrained and reassessed. The digital crew as a whole will also receive a GO/NO-GO rating.

5-141. Receiving a NO-GO during DTT V does not stop the crew from progressing to DTT VI. It should however inform the crew where they need retraining prior to DTT VI execution 5-142. Conduct an AAR with individual system operators and the digital crew as a whole. Specific focus on the solicitation of recommendations to make changes to the digital SOP, unit battle drills, and KM SOP. 5-143. If possible invite the CDR, S3, or XO to attend the AAR so the digital crew can better understand the commander's intent. This will also provide the commander, S3 or XO a level of understanding on what the capabilities and limitation of the digital crews.

## Part Of An Exercise

5-144. Based on the nature of the exercise and the requirement for continued operations, it is difficult to run DTTs concurrently with another training exercise. If you must run the exercise concurrently, leverage the two digital crews (day shift and night shift). While crew one is running real world battle tracking, the other crew can qualify on DTT-V. 5-145. Every effort should be made to allow the digital crew to train DTT V without interruption. Accomplishing the tasks in sequence will provide a more realistic training environment and provide better outcomes for the digital crews.

## General Learning Outcome For Crew Proficiency

5-146. The task used to evaluate DTTs V & VI is a staff level collective task that will be executed by the digital crew. DMGs may use a developed training scenario (or staff developed product) to execute the task steps from the lens of a digital crew. There are sub tasks that the digital crew may not be able to perform without the integration of staff. Use the T&EO referenced in Table 5-11 as a guide to assist in the evaluation of DTTs V & VI.

5-147. Upon completion of DTT-VI digital crews will receive a qualification. Any crew considered qualified or above will be proficient at system integration, COP development, battle management. They will be able to provide integration advice to the staff during Training Tables VII-X and fully integrate their systems into the unit's operations process.

## Section Iii - Qualification Standards

5-148. In order to be part of a qualified digital crew, every crew member must successfully complete Digital Training Tables I and II. If the commander approves, digital crew members who complete a course on their assigned MCIS through their instillation MTC may be considered qualified. 5-149. If a crew member has not completed digital training tables I and II, the entire digital crew will be considered unqualified.

## Section Qualification

5-150. Once complete with DTT VI, the digital crew can be assessed as one of the following ratings:

Fully Qualified (FQ): The digital crew has successfully completed Digital Training Table VI. The digital crew will remain FQ until:
 No retraining has been conducted to maintain and FQ rating in accordance with the Objective-T
Atrophy Model.
 There is a change in 20% or more crew members. If the replacement crew members are qualified
through Digital Training Table II the entire digital crew will be considered Q.
 When moving crew members from day shift to night shift on the same MCIS the Commander will
make the determination, based on DMG input, on whether or not to downgrade the overall crew qualification.

Qualified (Q): digital crew has successfully completed Digital Training Tables VI and maintains 80%
of the digital crew. All current members of the digital crew have completed DTT I and II. The digital crew will remain Q until:
 No retraining has been conducted to maintain and FQ rating in accordance with the Objective-T
Atrophy Model.
 50% of the original crew has been moved since the last DTT VI qualification.

Unqualified (U): Digital crew has not completed DTT VI, more than 50% of the digital crew has
changed since the last DTT VI qualification, digital crew members have not completed DTT I-II, or the digital crew qualification has atrophies to U in accordance with the Objective-T Atrophy Model.
The digital crew will remain U until:
 The digital crew successfully progresses through DTTs I-VI.

## Qualification And "Refires"

5-151. Digital crew members unable to successfully complete the digital tables will be given an individual NO- GO. These crew members will require some form of retraining. 5-152. When conducting retraining, the DMG should conduct a careful analysis of the NO-GO cause and conduct retraining accordingly. 5-153. The DMG does not have to personally administer the retraining. If the issue lies within the crew member's ability to operate their digital system, the DMG can look to send the crew member to an operator's course at the closest MTC or have a higher headquarters' crew member conduct the retraining.  For example, if a brigade AFATDS operator needs retraining, the division AFATDS operator can conduct the retraining if approved by the commander. 5-154. The failure of one member during a digital training table will not necessarily cause the digital crew to require retraining. If a single member of the crew fails to successfully complete the training table, they can be retrained individually.

5-155. The Commander, with advice from his DMG, will determine what is an acceptable threshold for Chapter 5_____________________________________________________________________________

5-156. The commander is the only person with the authority to approve the qualification of a digital crew. DMGs will keep a record, for each crew member on DA Form 7780 Mission Command Information System Training Tables VI for Digital Crew.

## Chapter 6 Digital Crews And The Mission Command Training Tables (Vii - X)

Mission Command Training Tables VII-X training audiences are Commanders, Staffs, and Command Posts. A full breakdown of the tables can be found in TC 6-0, Training the Mission Command Warfighting Function. While the digital crew is not the training audience for these tables, they do have a significant role to play in the success of the training audiences as at the conclusion of table VI, they are now considered an integrated part of the CP Staff. The tables will test the digital crew's ability to operate as part of a staff as the Mission Command Information System (MCIS) Subject Matter Experts (SME). Like the Digital Training Tables, the Mission Command Training Tables are built on a progressive model that continues from the set-up of Command Post to the execution of the operations process. This Chapter will describe how the digital crew can integrate into a Command Post exercise and validate the proficiency of the digital crew. Upon conclusion of Digital Training Table X, the digital crew should be fully integrated into the staff and capable of running continuous 24-hour operations. This chapter does not replace TC 6-0, Training the Mission Command Warfighting Function, but should be used in conjunction with the training tables found in that publication.

## Section I - Command Post Integration

6-1. The target audience for the Mission Command Training Tables (MCTT) are Commanders, Staffs, and Command Posts. While digital crews will have a role in all three evaluations, the majority of the digital crew integration will happen with the staff. The rest of this chapter is written as the digital crew supporting the specific staff training tables that can be found in TC 6-0, Training the Mission Command Warfighting Function.

6-2. The digital crew plays a supporting role and will be evaluated as such. The tasks associated with the digital crew's performance do not have specific Training and Evaluation Outlines (T&EOs,) however the tasks conducted by the digital crew in tables III-VI can serve as an evaluation outline. See APPENDIX F for a breakdown of digital crew tasks that support each Mission Command Training Tables VII-X.

6-3. From the lens of the digital crew, Training Tables VII and VIII are the first tables that evaluate the digital crew's ability to integrate and operate as part of the command post staff. The digital crew members should be seen as the SMEs on their staff section's MCIS and understand how to leverage the information on the MCIS to help develop the COP and build situational understanding for the Commander.

6-4. The tasks the digital crews will perform in MCTT VII-X are the same tasks that were evaluated during DTTs I-VI. Digital crew should already be proficient in these tasks prior to execution of MCTTs VII-X. While Table X does not serve as a qualification exercise for the digital crew, the commander can use the table to validate the digital crew qualification level in order to prevent skill atrophy.

6-5 The S3/XO/COS will be responsible for the overall execution of MCTT VII-X. The digital crew will still have a large role to play supporting the staff and the remainder of this chapter is written to explain how the digital crew will assist the staff during their qualification tables.

6-6. Even though the digital crew is not the primary training audience, the DMG can still assess their skill sets and recommend validating the crew's qualification level to the commander at the completion of Training Table X.

6-7. Because MCTTs VII-X leverage existing training exercises, the setup coordination required by the DMG is significantly less than during DTTs I-VI. However, the DMG will still need to coordinate with the G/S-6 in order to obtain the required information to correctly setup the MCISs on the CP digital infrastructure. 6-8. Commanders are allowed to modify their digital crews based on unit specific requirements, and therefore, the digital crew may be split out among different sections of the TOC. Digital Master Gunners must think through any implications of segregating members of a digital crew. Figure 6-1 below shows a POSSIBLE breakdown of a digital crew throughout a Brigade (BDE) TOC. For a specific breakdown, consult your unit SOP or the command post handbook located on the Digital Master Gunner Webpage.

## Table Vii - Integrate The Mission Command System

6-9. MCTT-VII begins with the reception of liaisons. This may or may not include unified action partners. Further, the XO, under the direction of the commander, will lead the command through the entire MDMP with the inclusion of the liaisons and attachments. As part of complete the MDMP, the staff will coordinate with higher, lower, and adjacent units. Cells and sections will also identify and establish reporting requirements through the correct channels, and the XO will ensure that the HQ can report these reporting requirements to higher. The command will task organize based on mission requirements. The venue and facility location is determined by the commander IAW the unit CATS and mission requirements. 6-10. At the completion of DTT-VII, digital crew members should be integrated into their staff sections as the MCIS SMEs. The command post should be able to conduct current operations using MCWS/CPOF so that command post staff can analyze information, make recommendations, and integrate/synchronize resources for the formation and dissemination of the COP.

6-11. DMG responsibilities

Provide SME advice to the Command Team on the capabilities and best way to employ the digital crews.

Coordinate with the digital triad (KM/S6/DMG) to ensure all systems are operational and information is begin captured within the unit's SOP.

Observe digital crews according to the supporting tasks for MCTT-VII.

Refine digital SOP(s), as necessary.

Coordinate with higher, lower, adjacent, and supporting unit DMGs to ensure HQs are able to talk
externally as well as internally.
6-12. System Operator responsibilities

Provide SME advice on the staff section's MCIS, MCWS/CPOF, and the digital integration of information.

Assist the DMG/S6 in the network set up and troubleshooting of the operator's MCIS.

Conduct operations ICW the unit's SOPs.

## Staff Training Objectives:

6-13. The Staff will be trained on the following task during MCTT-VII

Received Liaisons and Attachments

Integrated Liaisons and Attachments

Task Organized for Operations 71-BN/BDE/DIV/CORPS-5123

Conducted the MDMP 71-BN/BDE/DIV/CORPS-5111

Coordinated efforts with higher, lower, adjacent units

Determined Reporting Requirements 71-BN/BDE/DIV/CORPS-5707
6-14. The digital crews will assimilate into the staff and assist their various staff section in the completion of these tasks. For a list of supporting digital crew tasks for MCTT-VII see APPENDIX F.

## General Learning Outcome For Crew Proficiency

6-15. Upon completion of MCTT-VII, digital crews will be able to deploy with fully operational MCISs and use their assigned systems to assist the staff in conducting battle management through the use of the MCWS/CPOF. Digital crews will be able to process relevant information, making recommendations and integrate/synchronize resources which are all graphically depicted on a Common Operational Picture. Digital crews will also be able to utilize their MCISs to disseminate commander and staff guidance to lower, supporting, and supported units.

## Tables Viii - Synchronize Operations With Unified Action Partners.

6-16. Table VIII Synchronize Warfighting Functions with Unified Action Partners. Once the liaisons and attachments are set, and the organic staff is nested with the new personnel, the XO will begin synchronizing Warfighting functions with unified action partners. An example of this would be the Brigade receives a BN
from the UK forces. The XO integrates the liaison officer(s) into the staff in Table VII. In Table VIII, the XO
includes the UK BN in the exercises preparing them to complete Tables IX and X to form a whole unit. Table VIII is the unit integration piece. Of note, some Brigade Combat Teams (BCTs) may not receive their unified action partners until at or just before they arrive on station for a mission. In these cases, every opportunity should be made by the command to reach out to that unit and include them on all possible training exercises. Commanders can still use the subordinate tasks of Table VIII even if no unified action partners are present. The table will be event and scenario driven in a manner that the unit can work towards MET proficiency with collective tasks T&EOs as determined by the commander. The venue and facility location is determined by the commander IAW the unit CATS and mission requirements.

6-17. At the completion of MCTT-VIII, digital crews are fully integrated into the staff. The Command and Staff leverage MCISs to ensure that current and future operations are conducted along with running estimates ISO the successful execution of an OPORD in the operating environment. 6-18. MCTT-VIII is focused mostly on the operations process prior to execution. System Operators need to understand how to integrate their MCIS into their Warfighting funtion's planning process and share relevant information across the digital crew to enable concurrent planning efforts in other Warfighting funtions.

6-19. DMG responsibilities:

Provide SME advice to the Command Team on the capabilities and best way to employ the digital
crews

Observe digital crews according to the tasks associated with MCTT-VIII.

Refine digital SOPs, as necessary.

Provide advice from the DMG point of view on battle drill and SOP refinements
6-20. System Operator responsibilities

Provide SME advice on the staff sections MCIS, MCWS/CPOF, and the digital integration of information.

Conduct operations ICW the units SOPs.

Understand digital crews, staff sections, and current operations battle drills.

## Staff Training Objectives

6-21. The Staff will be trained on the following task during MCTT-VIII

Establish Battle Rhythm (150-MC-5123)

Coordinated Measures to Enhance Interoperability for Operations with Unified Action Partners (150- MC-5132)

Conducted the Operations Process (71-BN/BDE/DIV/CORPS-5100)

Share Relevant Information

Performed a Rehearsal (71-BN/BDE/DIV/CORPS-5122)
6-22. The digital crews will assimilate into the staff and assist their various staff section in the completion of these tasks. For a list of supporting digital crew tasks for MCTT-VIII see APPENDIX F.

## General Learning Outcome For Crew Proficiency

6-23. Upon completion of MCTT-VIII, digital crews will be able to use their assigned MCIS to ensure that current and future operations are conducted along with running estimates in support of the successful execution of an OPORD. Digital crews will assist the staff and develop situational awareness for the commander by using their assigned MCIS to battle track, conduct battle drills, identify CCIR, conduct update brief/OPSYNC meetings, and make recommendations to the commander based on current estimates.

## Section Ii - Command Post Mission Command Validation Exercise

6-24. The Command Post Mission Command Validation Exercise is comprised of the Mission Command Validation Rehearsal in Table IX and the final validation by the unit commander in Table X.

## Table Ix - Mission Command Validation Rehearsal

6-25. Table IX. Mission Command Validation Exercise Rehearsal. The validation exercise rehearsal will be conducted IAW unit CATS and the commander's intent. It is expected that this event be conducted in a real or simulated OE in which the unit is missioned to operate in or allocated against for a given contingency. The exercise will be conducted using 24-hour operations and should last more than two days. The exercise will also be based on collective tasks found within the unit's METL or on higher headquarters' top driven mission requirements. The intent is that this exercise match as closely as possible the training circumstances and requirements found within Table X, the Mission Command Validation Exercise. 6-26. Following the completion of the MCTT-IX, the digital crew will be fully integrated into the staff functions. Both the staff and digital crews will have an understanding of each other's capabilities and will be able to execute the operations process and conduct battle management in order to develop situational understanding and facilitate decision making for the commander.

6-27. DMG responsibilities:

Provide SME advice to the Command Team on the capabilities and best way to employ the digital crews

Evaluate digital crews according to the tasks associated with MCVE and make a recommendation to
the commander on the validation of the digital crew's qualification rating.

Refine digital SOPs, as necessary.

Provide advice from DMG point of view on battle drill and SOP refinements

Conduct responsibilities with assigned staff section as well as perform the functions of the DMG.
6-28. System Operator Responsibilities

Provide SME advice on the staff sections MCIS, MCWS/CPOF, and the digital integration of information.

Conduct operations ICW the unit's SOPs.

Understand digital crews, staff sections, and current operations battle drills

Conduct responsibilities with assigned staff section as well as perform the functions of a digital crew
member.

## Staff Training Objectives

6-29. The Staff will be trained on the following task during MCTT-VIII

Conducted the Operations Process (71-BN/BDE/DIV/CORPS-5100)

Integrated Situational Understanding Through Knowledge Management (71-BN/BDE/DIV/CORPS- 5330)

Planed Inform and Influence Activities (150-IIA-1037)

Adjusted Inform and Influence Activities Efforts (150-IIA-1024)

Direct IRC to Inform and Influence Audiences (150-LDR-5005)

Prepared an Inform and Influence Activities Running Estimate (150-IIA-1002)

Coordinate CEMA (71-BNBDE/DIV/CORPS-5900)
6-30. The digital crews should be assimilated in the staff by this time, and should assist their assigned staff sections in the completion of these tasks. For a list of supporting digital crew tasks for MCTT-IX, see APPENDIX F.

## General Learning Outcome For Crew Proficiency

6-31. Upon completion of MCTT-IX, the digital crew will be fully assimilated into the command post staff and will facilitate the Operational Processes (Current Operations, Targeting, Planning, Briefings and Staff estimates) through the integration of information and data across the MICSs. The digital crew will also provide any input to the digital SOP which will be certified at the completion of the MCTT-IX.

## Table X Command Post Mission Command Validation Exercise

6-32. Table X. Mission Command Validation Exercise. This is the culmination exercise of both the HQ and the BCT as a whole. The validation exercise typically takes place before a Combat Training Center (CTC) rotation during a Warfighter or similar exercise where the unit may receive an External Evaluation (EXEVAL) for MET
proficiency and reporting. This exercise will be driven by the evaluating commander and mission requirements.

The exercise will culminate with at final T rating for readiness reporting. Once the exercise is complete, the commander, in coordination with the evaluating commander, assigns a T rating for the unit as a whole. 6-33. There are not supporting digital crew tasks listed in this TC. Due to the mission specific nature of MCTT, the DMG will need to coordinate with the evaluating team in order to determine which (if any tasks) tasks are going to be used to evaluate the digital crew during MCTT-X. All digital crew tasks trained in Digital Training Tables I-VI can be found in APPENDIX F. 6-34. The outcome of tables VII-X is that the staff works as a cohesive unit, led by the commander, with external augmenters and liaisons. Each staff section/cell understands and operates within their designed capabilities and the mission. Individual and section competency meets the design of the Army and the commander's intent. The staff performs the operations process seamlessly. Training shortfalls were identified by Table IX and corrected before Table X. Completing Table X indicates that the command is prepared to conduct METL tasks at or above the T- level rating and is prepared at an advanced level to conduct unified land operations (the rating being the T-2, and in some cases a T-1).

6-35. Apart from qualifying the staff, MCTT-X will serve as a way for the commander to validate the digital crew's current readiness level. The DMG will make a recommendation to the commander on the validation of the digital crew's rating (Fully Qualified, Qualified, or Unqualified). The commander will verify the digital crew's rating after discussion with the DMG and review of supporting table's grading documentation.

## Appendix D Quick Reference Guides For Mcis

D-1. The quick reference guides contained in this chapter were created by the Digital Master Gunner Course. They provide step by step instructions to set up the majority of the MCIS machines found in DIV and below headquarters. D-2. These quick reference guides are intended to be used by system operators to help establish the digital network rapidly and allow the digital crew members to rapidly and effectively assess issues in connectivity.

D-3. Prior to the start of the exercise the DMG should ensure that all system operators have copies of their respective quick reference guide for their system. The quick reference guides have been broken down in APPENDIX D to facilitate a tear away method of distribution allowing the DMG to tear out or print the pages applicable to the systems found in their respective digital crew. D-4. All integration guides contained in this document are UNCLASSIFIED.

## Appendix G Training Support Training Support

G-1. Army Training Support consists of three complementary varieties: products (normally referred to as TADSS or Training Aids, Devices, Simulations and Simulators), programs and facilities.  These can each be a distinct "stand-alone" enabler such as an ammunition simulator, or combined into a single entity such as a mission training complex where facilities, services and products "come together under one roof."  The Army Training Support System  is a system of systems that provides the networked, integrated, and interoperable training support necessary to enable an operationally relevant training environment for warfighters, across all three domains (operational, institutional, and self-development) and all three components (active, Army Reserve National Guard, and US Army Reserves). It supports training and education for all levels, from the individual to echelons above Corps. Listed below are some key training support resources that enable learning mission command and that are available to unit leaders.  Agile and adaptive leaders can use the following resources and others to build a robust training environment in which the exercise of mission command can be mastered.

## Tadss

G-2. TADSS can help replicate the operational and mission variables of the complex OE. These training support enablers allow leaders flexibility, increased capabilities to conduct demanding and realistic training at home station, time and budget savings, and an accurate assessment of proficiency. By blending live training with one or more of the available training enablers, leaders can expand both the size of the training area and the complexity of the OE to maximize training effectiveness. G-3. The Games for Training (GFT) Program prepares Soldiers and Leaders for military operations in support of Force 2025 and beyond with robust training and mission rehearsal capabilities.  It includes a suite of games span support for human dimension training objectives to requirements of higher echelon units and staffs. G-4. Division eXercise Training and Review System (DXTRS) is a low overhead staff trainer for Staff Officers and NCOs at the Battalion thru Corps levels. It is focused on Major Combat Operations. DXTRS is a Constructive Simulation that is also being released in a new version known as the Brigade/Battalion (B2)
release. This version is designed for use at the Advanced Course Level in the TRADOC Schools and is also available on the Army's "Milgaming" Site for use at the unit level. DXTRS has proven to be an outstanding
"war gaming" tool. It also allows units to train using their organizational real-world Mission Command equipment. The system provides for the "construction" of full-spectrum scenarios involving small or major combat operations to train staff officers and NCOs as individuals or in small groups.

G-5. Joint Land Component Constructive Training Capability-Entity Resolution Federation (JLCCTC ERF) is a federation of simulations, data collection and after-action review tools. It stimulates the Mission Command Networks and Systems to facilitate battle staff collective training by requiring staff reaction to incoming digital information while executing the commander's tactical plan. The targeted training audience is comprised of brigade and battalion battle staffs, functional Command Post (CP) training and full CP training.

G-6. The WARSIM system (a component of JLCCTC-MRF) uses a software computer-based simulation and associated hardware to support the planning, decision-making and operational execution of unit commanders and their staffs from battalion through theater level as well as the training events in educational institutions.

WARSIM trains and provides mission-rehearsal capabilities for Army and joint commanders and their staffs during stability operations, peacetime and wartime. Additionally, WARSIM portrays activities associated with post-employment operations such as war termination and post-conflict operations including restoring order, supplementing civilian government, providing humanitarian assistance, redeployment, reconstitution and demobilization. The simulation accounts for the time and space factors associated with large unit movements as well as the differences between heavy and light units. The simulation allows all units, including Warfighting function units, to be committed to combat operations in response to threats in a rear area. WARSIM will allow units worldwide to train using their organizational real-world Mission Command equipment. G-7. The Integrated Training Environment (ITE) is a system of systems that, by design, combines and connects key training enablers in a persistent and consistent manner to accurately stimulate Mission Command Systems to meet the commander's training objectives within the Operational Environment.

G-8. In the future, the Synthetic Training Environment will offer a single synthetic environment utilizing one world terrain, common authoritative data and models that is cloud-enabled through the Army Enterprise Network, and is services-based through the Common Operating Environment, available for use anywhere a Soldier needs it.

## Services And Facilities

G-9. The Global Simulation Capability (GSC) provides Commanders the high quality constructive division and above MRF-WARSIM simulation capability to conduct command post exercises at home station.  GSC supports exercises through a broad range of simulation support options to support wide range of CPX training on an expanding library of terrain option (Decisive Action Training Environment, areas of  Caspian Sea, Middle
East, Europe, and Asia)  with exercise planning assistance is available IAW the desires of the training unit.
GSC provides the following capabilities:

Direct support to the Army's Mission Command Training Program (MCTP) and other CTC initiatives.

Direct support to FORSCOM for CONUS-based division and above exercises.

Sustainment simulation support for exercises worldwide.

ICW 7th Signal Command, facilitate the Global Simulation Capability (GSC) network in support of
distributed training between installations and Centers of Excellence.

Support to other Regional Simulation Centers as required and based on available resources to meet
mission command training requirements.
G-10. Mission Training Complexes (MTC) are facilities available to operational units to support achieving METL-focused training objectives. MTCs are organized and equipped to support collective and individual training. They are resourced through the Mission Command Training Support Program (MCTSP) and managed
by U.S. Army Combined Arms Center - Training (CAC-T). They are the focal point for Simulation/Stimulation (SIM/STIM) support for CPXs and operator instruction for MC information systems. Specific MTC support priorities come from the operational force headquarters that each MTC directly support, but also considers
multi-component requirements from their service areas. MCTs are manned, equipped, and organized for area support to the total Army. MTCs provide the following capabilities:

Operator, leader, staff section, staff, integrated command post, and MC information system training
support.

Live, Virtual, Constructive-Gaming (LVC-G) capability that offers medium fidelity operational
environment support individual and collective training.

Classrooms equipped with the functional and common systems/servers to enable constructive SIM/STIM to support CPXs and train MC Information System operators.

A Reconfigurable Tactical Operations Center equipped with MC information systems to support
battalion and higher-level staff training.

Exercise support personnel augmentation to operational unit exercise control and opposing force
organizations.

Network connectivity of training enablers that allows integrated vertical and horizontal training and
reach (field training areas, ranges, other MTCs, CTCs, Foundry, deployed forces, Centers of
Excellence /schools).

Trainers/instructors, certified by each MTC Director, to support individual and collective training. Instructor certification programs must be based on appropriate proponent approved TSPs and Centers
of Excellence /school POIs.

Individual and collective MC information system training support.

Ability to exercise on both lower and upper TI to provide the transition in systems for the COP in support of their companies and Brigade Headquarters achievement of shared understanding.
G-11. Combat Training Centers (CTCs) The Army's CTCs serve as the premier leader development and collective training venues in the world. The CTCs provide a complex, challenging operational environment, highly capable opposing forces (OPFOR), professional Observer-Coach-Trainers (OCTs) who are doctrinal experts, and world class instrumentation to capture cause-and-effect data. (4) CTCs focus on performanceoriented training in a Decisive Action Training Environment (DATE) based scenario assessed against established tasks, conditions, and standards.  The CTCs include the three "dirt" CTCs (the National Training Center (NTC), the Joint Readiness Training Center (JRTC), and the Joint Multinational Readiness Center
(JMRC)), and the Mission Command Training Program (MCTP). G-12. The dirt CTCs serve a dual role in generating unit readiness while also serving as a crucible experience for leader development.  Units exercise mission command for deploying units in an environment that replicates their anticipated deployment, while non-deploying and regionally aligned forces will exercise mission command in the DATE.  No matter the environment, Dirt CTCs support unit readiness by setting the conditions under which fire teams to brigade combat teams can demonstrate a fully trained mission command warfighting function proficiency.  Likewise, they support leader development by increasing the agility and adaptability of leaders from fire team to BCT in practicing the art and science of mission command.

G-13. The MCTP is the Army's primary CTC for mission command training using constructive simulations as portrayed by a professional OPFOR. MCTP supports Army unit readiness, force generation processes, mission preparation progression, and other Army requirements. MCTP conducts or supports training that simulates unified land operations in the OE at worldwide locations. The MCTP provides training events for National Guard BCTs, multifunctional support brigades, functional support brigades, Expeditionary Support Commands (ESCs), divisions, Theater Support Commands (TSCs), corps, Army Service Component Commands, Special Operations Joint Task Forces, Combined Joint Special Operations Task Force, and Joint Forces Land Component Command (JFLCCs). MCTP provides training in coordination with Joint Staff J7 to commands and/or staffs that are designated to serve as a Joint Task Force (JTF). The MCTP creates training experiences that enable the Army's senior mission commanders to develop current, relevant, and campaign-quality, Joint and expeditionary mission command instincts and skills.

## Appendix H Training Enablers

H-1. Mission Command training enablers refer to the broad set of products that define standards, suggest plans to achieve those standards, provide means to achieve those standards and otherwise support leaders plan, prepare, execute and assess mission command training.  The below enablers are an abbreviated listing of resources available to leaders in institutions and in the operational force.  For further details and more enablers, please see FM 7-0 or the Army Training Network. H-2. The Decisive Action training Environment (DATE) provides a model for Army forces to train its core competencies (Combined arms Maneuver, or CAM and Wide Area Security, or WAS).  It presents trainers with a tool to assist in the construction of scenarios for specific training events but does not provide a complete scenario. The DATE offers discussions of OE conditions through the Political, Military, Economic, Social, Information, Infrastructure, Physical Environment, and Time (PMESII-PT) variables. This DATE applies to all US Army units (Active Army, Army National Guard, and Army Reserve) that participate in an Army or joint training exercises. .The DATE is a tool for the training community to use across training events ranging from rotations at the Combat Training Centers (CTCs) to individual home station training (HST) events. The DATE
was developed and designed to allow for flexibility and creativity in its application.  Further information on the DATE can be found on the Army Training Network. H-3. Unit Combined Arms Training Strategies (CATS) are METL-based training strategies that support the Army Sustainable Readiness Model and can be found on the Army Training Network. They suggest ways for commanders to train their units to perform assigned mission sets. CATS training events propose a sequential training path that enables commanders to select the appropriate level of event difficulty to maintain or improve the unit's level of proficiency. Unit CATS provide a strategy from which commanders can develop unit training plans based on their unit's assigned missions and readiness requirements. MC is integral within Unit CATS because METL tasks (i.e. attack, defend, etc.) are the context wherein which MC is exercised. H-4. Warfighter Training Support Packages (WTSPs) are a complete, detailed, exportable package integrating training products, materials, and information necessary to support operating force training. WTSPs provide the actual details for securing the materials, training venues, and other necessary resources identified in each Unit CATS training event supporting the HQDA-approved METLs for designated units.  NOTE: Training Support Packages are also produced for the institutional Army Mission Command Training and Education Plan (MCTEP)
H-5. The purpose of the MCTEP is to provide a holistic set of "learning" outcomes to synchronize Mission Command, Army Leadership and the Profession, Human Dimension, and, Echelon above Brigade Combined Arms training, education, and experience across the institutional, operational, and self-developmental domains in order to develop leaders capable of exercising Mission Command. The MCTEP sets expectations for unit leaders for what competencies Soldiers graduating from PME/IMT have upon arrival at the unit, and goals for those Soldiers when they depart the unit for their next PME session.  The MCTEP achieves this through a horizontal and vertical nesting of education outcomes (Terminal Learning Objectives, TLOs - Knowledge, Skills, Attributes) across Army cohorts, ranks, and echelons with increasing levels of complexity within the newly approved four Army Learning Areas (ALAs) and fourteen General Learning Outcomes (GLOs).  The education outcomes are then linked to the associate training task (Training and Evaluation Outlines, T&EOs - Task, Condition, Standard). Serves as a roadmap to develop cross cohort common core curriculum, and training products within the Institutional and Operational Army to train Soldiers to "BE" agile and adaptive leaders capable of leading teams to accomplish assigned missions.

Mission Command Warfighting Function Training Tables H-6. Mission command is the exercise of authority and direction by the commander using mission orders to enable disciplined initiative within the commander's intent to empower agile and adaptive leaders in the conduct of unified land operations (ADP 6-0). Army Doctrine Reference Publication (ADRP) 6-0 develops the concept of mission command to help Army forces function effectively and accomplish missions. Training Circular (TC) 6-0 expands that concept into actions and practices that each commander can apply to their individual unit through training, certifying, and validating certification. Commanders can use TC 6-0 to increase the state of readiness within their headquarters to ensure their unit is prepared to conduct prompt and sustained unified land operations. To assist commanders in building and maintaining their overall unit readiness, TC 6-0 provides Mission Command Training Tables designed to function and be applied like those of typical gunnery tables that commanders use to certify and validate crews throughout the force. These tables are broken into the four distinct categories mentioned above: the commander, the staff, the command post, and the Mission Command Information Systems (MCIS). TC 6-0 provides information about the Army approach to training the Mission Command Warfighting Function and highlights several training considerations and enablers that, when implemented, will improve unit readiness.

Mission Command Digital Master Gunner Sustainment Training H-7. MCDMGs will attend unit based refresher training that have not served in a personnel MTOE authorized 5C identified position for six consecutive months, or for whom it has been more than six months since they attended the MCDMG course.  The unit refresher training will be conducted by a current and qualified MCDMG and will require the Soldier to conduct digital training tables I-III. The training will be conducted at the unit level by the senior MCDMG who is responsible for validating the qualifications of each MCDMG. The unit commander has the authority to designate at what echelon he sees appropriate for conducting the training and incurs the risk at the unit for the quality of their program.
