(1) The strategic importance of the Arctic con-
tinues to increase as the United States and other 
countries recognize the military and economic impor-
tance of the region. However, the operational capa-
bilities of the United States Armed Forces in ex-
treme cold weather or Arctic environments have at-
rophied when compared to regional adversaries. 
(2) The 2018 national defense strategy stated 
‘‘The central challenge to U.S. prosperity and secu-
rity is the reemergence of long-term, strategic com-
petition by what the National Security Strategy clas-
sifies as revisionist powers.’’.

Regiment throughout the Arctic;

essary to compete against a near peer adversary and to 
execute the national defense strategy of the United States. 
(c) ASSESSMENT REQUIRED.—The Secretary of the 
Army shall— 
(1) conduct an assessment of cold weather

weather training opportunities. 
(d) ELEMENTS.—In conducting the assessment and 
developing the plan as required under subsection (c), the 
Secretary shall— 
(1) assess all existing cold weather training re-
quirements to include requirements for extreme cold, 
or Arctic conditions; 
(2) identify capability gaps in confronting ad-
versaries in the Arctic that can be addressed by in-
creased and improved training;
1040 
(3) make recommendations for strengthening 
and improving those training requirements and miti-
gation measures needed to address the capabilities 
gaps necessary to confront adversaries; 
(4) assess existing cold weather training sites; 
(5) consider steps necessary to increase student 
capacity at such sites; 
(6) consider manpower and supply require-
ments, including cadre needed to support increased 
student capacity; and 
(7) address any other matters the Secretary of 
the Army considers relevant.

days after the date of the enactment of this Act, the Sec-
retary of the Army shall submit to the Committees on

atives the plan required by subsection (c).
