This course is designed to provide cadets a foundation of military and tactical knowledge necessary for application during Cadet Field Training (CFT) and implementation in a future career as an Army Officer. Tactical instruction includes map reading and military analysis through an introduction to the military planning considerations of Mission, Enemy, Terrain, Troops, Time, and Civil considerations (METT-TC). Additionally, the instruction covers the Troop Leading Procedures (TLP), Pre-Combat Inspections (PCI), Squad Formations and Basic Squad Movement Techniques. Cadets are introduced to the Warning Order and Operations Order, and extract information needed for a squad operations order. These skills are applied in the analysis of basic tactical situations in order to reinforce basic understanding.
