Patrol packing list, use an assault pack, full kit. Stretch out stations across a length of 2-3 miles each station has a focus of zeroing/fill/radio check, movement to contact, Battle Drills, CBRN, casualty care with 9 line, 9 line IED, call for fire, vehicle push for x amount of distance.

SSG (Join to see) I think it has a lot to do with the broad mindset approach that the Army has adopted. Situational awareness and acute memory retention was usually just left to the Scout Platoons. Which I felt was a shame; but the nail that sticks up gets hammered down pretty quickly when it doesn’t jive with the conventional norm.

FM 7-22 is a great resource and can tell you which warrior tasks and battle drills are being supported in each drill, how to do the drill, and which sequence all drills should be executed.
It’s also designed to help reduce injuries, which, in turn, ensures combat readiness.
