Slide 21 of 27
Notes:
In the Army, this simply means that leaders must know and understand their soldiers well enough to train them to a high level of proficiency as individuals and teams, and to have confidence in their ability to perform well under difficult and demanding conditions.
Training is the principal duty and responsibility of NCOs. No one in the Army has more to do with training soldiers than NCOs. The Army can provide ranges, ammunition, solder's manuals, training extension courses, and training aids and devices, but none of these can do the training - they are aids for NCOs who know how to train their soldiers. Good training bonds tactics, weapons, equipment, and units into winning battle teams!
