Training areas are available. Ammunition and other training resources are moved forward. Units can rotate from PSO tasks to training sites. Force-protection conditions are met. Political conditions allow.
Conditions usually support the execution of some level of collective combat training.
Because of possible escalation during a peace-enforcement operation, transition to combat is a constant possibility. Therefore, training and preparing for escalation remain a constant requirement. Training opportunities and conditions are reduced during PK operations and are even scarcer for humanitarian assistance operations because of mission demands for large numbers of soldiers. Peace-enforcement operations, which require large numbers of units as opposed to individual soldiers, usually allow the most flexibility to conduct training. That training can, in turn, serve as a deterrent for observant former warring factions.
