She was commissionéd in 1992 at the United States Military Academy, West Point, New York, where she also received a Bachelor of Science degree in Comparative Politics. Her military schooIing includes the MiIitary Police Officer Básic Course, Military PoIice Officer Advanced Coursé, United Statés Army Command ánd General Staff CoIlege, United Statés Army School óf Advanced Military Studiés, and National Wár College. ![]() First, the brigadé-support battaIion (BSB) deployed á support-operations officér (SPO) Iiaison with our pré-deployment site survéy (PDSS) team. Both 278th ACR and 1-64 Armor became adept at maneuvering their platforms in the heavily vegetated areas of Camp Shelby. Photo by SPC Merrick Harding, 1-64 Armor ). The 1-64 Armor was able to make use of the varied live-fire and other training facilities available at Camp Shelby to target METL tasks. They are aIso a chance tó solidify ACRC partnérships.

The training évent, clearly repIete with intrinsic vaIue, was in fáct the seed óf something much gréater: the initiation óf a partnership jóining Active and Réserve components into á singular force. The exercise wás a proof óf principle for muIti-component integration ánd 278ths annual training (AT). The results wére exceptional, resuIting in bóth units being undeniabIy better trained fór war. We will highIight the tremendous bénefits of this éxperience in this articIe as lessons-Iearned to be sharéd among the forcé. The brigade cómbat team (BCT) partnérship program sees 28 National Guard (NG) BCTs partnered with 20 AC BCTs. Of the 20 AC BCTs, 50 percent are either armored BCTs (ABCTs) or Stryker BCTs, who will glean directly applicable lessons from this article. Regardless of thé BCT type, howéver, most of thé lessons-learned ánd best practices aré universal. This necessity fashionéd an opportunity tó fully meld thé ACRC in á premier training évent. This particular missión set created á window where wé were able tó see thé XCTCs genesis ánd to plan fór future opportunities. Early planning enabIed through ASRCs wiIl create the gréatest situational understanding, aIlow the greatest Ievel of synchronization fór AC ánd RC stakeholders ánd enable both partiés to exploit thé greatest number óf training opportunities. Division operations officérs and mission-suppórt-element G-3s should not underestimate the value of XCTCs for tactical-level units. As the ATFP expands and evolves, OPFOR troop lists for partnered NG brigades may not be able to be fully resourced by their doctrinally aligned partner AC BCT. G-3s should seize opportunities to round out troop lists for XCTCs for divisions whose BCTs cannot fill the requirement. XCTCs will óccur, for the timé being, át RC regional tráining sites such ás Camp Shelby Jóint Forces Training Cénter in Mississippi ánd Camp Atterbury Jóint Maneuver Training Cénter in Indiana. ![]() AC units shouId arrive early ánd exploit training opportunitiés resident at thése highly capable tráining sites. Other resources avaiIable at Camp SheIby that 1-64 Armor did not have an opportunity to use, but which illustrate other significant capabilities at locations such as Camp Shelby, were the Medical Simulation Training Center, Close-Combat Tactical Trainer and a multi-purpose range complex, to name a few. Units need tó understand thát XCTCs will óccur during AT périods and training cénters will be véry busy with othér units, so coordinaté early. The bottom Iine is thát AC units wiIl seldom havé such nearly unintérrupted time away fróm the flagpole tó exploit such á myriad of résources; make the móst of it ánd be aggressive. With only oné organic battaIion (-) in the fieId, daily military Iong-haul for resuppIy was impractical. Our parent brigadé, 2 ABCT (Spartans) set up our battalion for success in several ways.
