Might be some good ideas amongst those 48.

For an effective Maintain Effective Communications, especially on Fort Hood, take your platoon out to a field training site (West Fort Hood used to always be open). Use butcher block paper and prep your class in advance (this is an exceptionally easy & fun class!)

You take the overall task, but get the other squad & team leaders involved by having them train subtasks (set up the OE-254; use of the radio and etc).

Have the platoon compete against each other setting up the OE-254 and establish communications....this will take about an hour to effectively train them (demonstrate) how to set up the antennae correctly.

The key is to get the section away from the classroom, away from their POVs, and get into the field...."what if it rains"....make them bring the prescribed packing list...which should include setting up some cammo netting as well as hasty cammo of a vehicle etc....

Our Soldiers want to train, they want to be challenged and they want to learn their jobs. I think you will do well and am looking forward to some feedback - when is your training?

SGT(P) Daniel McBride My best advise take your section away from the battery / company / troop, grab some comm equipment and TMs and just train. Ensure you have an agenda you want to follow, but don't get wrapped around some super sexy PPT presentation for the training. Hands on is always the best method, with some trouble shooting items in there to train against.
