Leadership Primer
This PowerPoint presentation by General Colin Powell outlines 18 valuable lessons in leadership. Some of Powell's lessons include: "Being responsible sometimes means pissing people off; the day soldiers stop bringing you their problems is the day you have stopped leading them. They have either lost day you have stopped leading them. They have either lost confidence that you can help them or concluded that you do not care. Either case is a failure of leadership; Don't be buffaloed by experts and elites; Don't be afraid to challenge the pros, even in their own backyard; Never neglect details; You don't know what you can get away with until you try; Keep looking below surface appearances. Don't shrink from doing so (just) because you might not like what you find; Organization doesn't really accomplish anything. Plans don't accomplish anything, either. Theories of management don't accomplish anything, either. Theories of management don't much matter. Endeavors succeed or fail because of the people involved. Only by attracting the best people will you accomplish great deeds; And organization charts and fancy titles count for next to nothing."

Contractors on the Battlefield
"Contractors have always accompanied our armed forces. However, the increasingly hi-tech nature of our equipment and rapid deployment requirements have significantly increased the need to properly integrate contractor support into all military operations. Recent reductions in military structure, coupled with high mission requirements and the unlikely prospect of full mobilization, mean that to reach a minimum of required levels of support, deployed military forces will often have to be significantly augmented with contractor support. As these trends continue, the future battlefield will require ever increasing numbers of often critically important contractor employees. Accordingly, commanders, staffs, and soldiers must be more familiar with how to plan for and use contractors effectively. This manual, along with an established, formal training program, provides the foundation upon which the Army can promote contractors on the battlefield education. Field Manual 3-100.21 (100-21) addresses the use of contractors as an added resource for the commander to consider when planning support for an operation. Its purpose is to define the role of contractors, describe their relationship to the combatant commanders and the Army service component commanders, and present their mission of augmenting operations and weapon systems support. This manual is intended for commanders and their staff at all echelons, program executive officers/program managers, and others involved in the planning, management, and use of contractors in an area of operations. It is also a guide for Army contracting professionals and contractors in implementing planning decisions and understanding how contractors will be managed and supported by the military forces they augment."

Army Vision: Strategic Advantage in a Complex World
"The challenges and complexity of the future will require the Army to provide a broader range of capabilities in order to enable strategic outcomes across a complex and diverse panorama of global missions. The future will require an increasing number of operations within and among populations and an enhanced ability to consolidate and integrate contributions from government, military, and coalition partners. Guided by our professional ethos, our leaders and units will continue the Army's transformation into an agile, expert, innovative, interoperable, expeditionary, scalable, versatile, and balanced force that can provide additional strategic options for civilian and military leaders in future crises. Our Vision for the Army of 2025 and Beyond will define the Army's mission and unique role among the military services, describe discrete changes in the future strategic environment that serve as a catalyst for change, and articulate key characteristics that leverage our present capabilities and will enhance the strategic advantage that the Army provides within the U.S. national security framework."

Report of Investigation into the 2 April 2014 Shooting Incident at Fort Hood
From the Department of Defense's online Press Release: "On April 2, 2014, Army Spc. [Specialist] Ivan Lopez-Lopez opened fire at several locations on the sprawling Army installation, killing three soldiers and wounding 12. Lopez-Lopez took his own life after being confronted by a military police officer. 'We find no indication in his medical and personnel records suggesting Spc. Lopez-Lopez was likely to commit a violent act,' wrote Army Lt. Gen. Joseph E. Martz, who led an investigation team that interviewed and obtained sworn statements from 169 witnesses, in addition to reviewing materials and statements gathered during an earlier criminal investigation. Martz's investigation also determined that no 'single event or stressor, in isolation, was the cause of the shooting.' The Army acknowledged that even though 'there were no clear warning signs,' a substantive review of Lopez-Lopez's background found several factors that may have contributed to the soldier's state of mind. He had recently experienced the death of two close family members, was facing financial difficulties, and was being treated for several medical conditions. He also had only recently come to Fort Hood from a previous assignment. While recognizing the various 'stressors,' the Army investigation determined that Lopez-Lopez's chain of command would have had difficulty in recognizing personal problems or providing help he may have needed. 'Since risk assessment tools depend on self-reporting, they are subject to the soldier's willingness to identify risk factors accurately,' the report reads, before noting that Lopez-Lopez could sometimes be 'misleading or deceptive.' But the report notes that when Lopez-Lopez first arrived at Fort Hood, 'the unit experienced significant turnover in leadership,' and was facing 'high operational tempo manning shortages' and that leaders may have been 'unable to provide adequate time to train, mentor, and lead.' It makes several recommendations to improve unit leaders' interaction with new soldiers. [...] 'In the absence of a system capable of identifying Lopez-Lopez as a threat, and because the unit was unaware and unable to address the variety of stressors in Lopez-Lopez's life, Fort Hood was not able to prevent the shooting,' Martz concluded."

1989 Department of the Army Service Response Force Exercise Volume II: Pine Bluff, AR, June 12-16, 1989
"SRFX-89 [Service Response Force Exercise-89] was a U.S. Army Materiel Command (AMC) sponsored exercise conducted by AMC Surety Field Activity (SFA) and the U.S. Army Defense Ammunition Center and School (USADACS). The operation was conducted at Pine Bluff Arsenal, Pine Bluff, Arkansas during the period 12-16 June 1989. The exercise responds to a Department of Army (DA) requirement to conduct a biennial exercise of the Army's Service Response Force (SRF). Exercise play focused on accident site activities while selected organizations engaged in limited play from their home stations. SRFX-89 was designated a no-fault exercise to encourage participants to identify policy and procedural system short-comings. Recognition of commendable performance was also encouraged. To assist in providing documentation upon which an After-Action Report could be based, each participant in the exercise was encouraged to fill out and submit observations, comments, and recommendations. Each controller was required to submit their observations through their functional team leader on a daily basis. This Volume II states the OBSERVATIONS observed from the exercise."

Multi-Service Tactics, Techniques, and Procedures for Chemical, Biological, Radiological, and Nuclear Consequence Management Operations
"This multi-Service publication incorporates the CM [Consequence Management] guidance and framework identified in JP 3-40 and JP 3-41.
The previous multi-Service tactics, techniques, and procedures (MTTP) also discussed the CBRN [Chemical, Biological, Radiological, and Nuclear] aspects of CM
as it related to the Federal Response Plan, which was the current guidance at that time. This MTTP provides
information on the National Response Framework (NRF), which replaced the National Response Plan (now
obsolete) in 2008. The NRF aligns federal coordination structures, capabilities, and resources into a unified, all-discipline,
and all-hazards approach to domestic incident management. This manual now complies with the NRF,
as appropriate.
This publication is designed for use at the tactical level, but has implications at the operational and strategic level
for CBRN CM operations supporting strategic objectives. The document will support command and staff planning
in preparing for and conducting CBRN CM operations."

HQDA Execution Order 097-16 to the U.S. Army Implementation Plan 2016-01 (Army Gender Integration)
From the "Narrative": "This is an HQDA [Headquarters, Department of the Army] EXORD [Execution Order] (sequel to EXORD 112-13) directing Army efforts to improve readiness and combat performance while opening all occupational fields to women. A key element of this Integration Plan is the concept of 'leaders first,' which prescribes the placement of a female Armor or Infantry leader in a unit prior to assignment of female junior enlisted Soldiers of the same branch to that unit. This order assumes that 1) qualified women will volunteer to serve in Infantry and Armor occupations/AOCs, 2) the Army will initially not force branch currently contracted cadet cohort women into Infantry or Armor occupations/AOCs and 3) the Leaders First policy will not change if enlisted Infantry and Armor accessions far outpaces female leader recruiting and training."

Military Guide to Terrorism in the Twenty-First Century--Appendix E: Improvised Explosive Devices
"While terrorists will use conventional weapons, such as rocket-propelled grenades and assault rifles to achieve their goals, they also have the ability to assemble and employ a wide variety of lethal improvised explosive devices (IEDs). Explosives are a popular weapon with terrorists and are covered in the al Qaeda training manual. The manual states, 'Explosives are believed to be the safest weapon for the Mujahideen. Using explosives allows them to get away from enemy personnel and to avoid being arrested.' It goes on to say that, 'In addition, explosives strike the enemy with sheer terror and fright.'"

How the Army Runs: Chapter 23: Military Assistance to Civil Authorities
"MACA [military assistance to civil authorities] is a complex, yet critically important, mission for the Armed Forces. Within existing processes and procedures, the Armed Forces have a well-defined basis for participation, perform specific and appropriate roles, and are postured for expansion of their roles and missions in response to the evolving threats and future technologically related domestic emergencies. The U.S. military primarily organizes, trains, and equips forces to conduct combat operations. However, it also has the capability to rapidly respond to domestic emergencies and provide assistance to civil authorities to save lives, prevent human suffering, or mitigate great property damage. Such assistance usually occurs after a Presidential declaration of a major disaster or an emergency and supplements the efforts and resources of state and local governments and voluntary organizations. The U.S. military normally responds to domestic emergencies in support of another federal agency."
