It has been a long time since I last posted and things have certainly changed around here. Harry; I've crossed sabres with J.Cox and came out with a few cuts and scrapes and with the full knowledge that many people can say that they can separate one part of their lives from another but very few can. I hope that you are one of the latter. I am asking for opinions on this forum tonight regarding the creation of instructional programs by personel that, while they beleive that they are doing great work, fail to recognize serious shortcomings in training programs. I would even suggest that some of the creators of these programs may even have their heads lodged firmly up their butts (but that would be inflamatory and uncivilized). Systems that work in the past (by that I mean the programs that created a complete, trained soldier in their respective trades) are being constantly undermined by NEW and BETTER programs that leave the soldier anything but trained and in most cases dangerously ignorant of the realities of warfare. I am constantly reminded by 'higher' that we are not training for war so the training levels should be modified to reflect the environment. I am concerned about soldiers that wear the rank of trained Pte and not able to effectively communicate a Contact Report or Adrep on a simple single net. Or soldiers that have had their training so watered down that they are unable to effectively use any small arms weapon they encounter in the modern battlefield. I fear for the future of our young men and women while I participate in the QL2 basic instructional programs being delivered and mandated by the very people that see the difference and are unable or unwilling to change it. As always, now more than ever before Dileas Gu Brath[/QB][/QUOTE]
