52 Back to the Future
Managing Training to “Win in a
Complex World”
Capt. Paul Lushenko, U.S. Army, and
Maj. David Hammerschmidt, U.S. Army
Training management is as much a lost art as it is the
wave of the future. The authors discuss how to restore
training expertise among company and field grade
officers by going “back to the future” and instilling the
counsel of past master trainers..
62 The Training Brain
Repository—Exercise
Design Tool for HomeStation Training
Col. David G. Paschal, U.S. Army, Retired, and
Maj. Alan L. Gunnerson, U.S. Army, Retired
The authors discuss how the Training Brain
Repository-Exercise Design Tool facilitates a
commander’s ability to increase the complexity,
realism, and depth of an exercise’s live, virtual, and
constructive training environment with previously
impossible speed and fidelity.
71 Perfection of Process
Does Not Equal Perfect
Understanding
Maj. David Oakley, U.S. Army
The spirit of design and the practical approach
contained in the Army design methodology are two
distinct aspects of design as taught at the School of
Advanced Military Studies. The author discusses the
school’s approach to teaching this methodology,
conveying its value for military planners and illustrating
the pitfalls of allowing the practical aspects of the Army
design methodology to overtake the spirit of design.
75 Networking and Generalship
Across the Anglo-Pacific
Maj. Matt Cavanaugh, U.S. Army, and
Maj. Nick Howard, U.S. Army
The author details research conducted to explain
how the United States is at the “center of the circle” in
networked relationships among senior military officers
of the Australian and New Zealand militaries, with
implications for the future.
82 Winning Trust Under Fire
Lt. Col. Aaron A. Bazin, U.S. Army
Influencing a nation or a cultural group depends
on winning the trust of those who can influence
others. The author describes how confidencebuilding measures can assist leaders and soldiers in
improving their ability to gain trust in challenging and
ambiguous operational environments.
91 Ethics and the Enhanced
Soldier of the Near Future
Col. Dave Shunk, U.S. Air Force, Retired
The super soldier is on the way, but the discussion
of ethics for the enhanced soldier is lacking in Army
concepts and doctrine. The Army must anticipate and
understand the unforeseen ethical challenges and
the second- and third-order effects of technological
advancements that will physically change soldiers and
the way they fight.
