The Crucible - The JRTC Experience Podcast

128 S13 Ep 10 - Air-Ground Disconnect: Why Enablers Fail in the Brigade Fight w/JRTC Subject Matter Experts

The Joint Readiness Training Center is pleased to present the one-hundredth-and-twenty-eighth episode to air on ‘The Crucible - The JRTC Experience.’ Hosted by MAJ Marc Howle, the Brigade Senior Engineer / Protection Observer-Coach-Trainer, and MAJ David Pfaltzgraff, BDE XO OCT (formerly the BDE S-3 Operations OCT), from Brigade Command & Control (BDE HQ) on behalf of the Commander of Ops Group (COG). Today’s guests are subject experts are mainly from the Task Force Aviation (CAB) at JRTC: MAJ Steven Yates is the BDE S-6 Signal OCT from the Brigade Command & Control Task Force (BDE HQ). CW2 Brendan Henske is the Unmanned Systems OCT, CW3 Sean Deegan is the Aviation Mission Survivability Expert OCT, and CPT William Landrum is an Attack Aviation / Close Combat Attack OCT from TF Aviation (CAB).
 
This episode examines the persistent challenges of integrating aviation enablers into brigade and division operations, emphasizing that most failures stem from planning, communications, and relationship gaps rather than technical limitations alone. A central theme is that aviation routinely enters the fight late, under-integrated, and without a shared understanding of the supported unit’s command-and-control architecture. Units struggle to establish effective PACE plans, COMSEC alignment, and interoperable mission command systems, often discovering incompatibilities only once operations are underway. The discussion highlights how compressed timelines, lack of habitual relationships, and insufficient lead time for satellite access, Link 16, and network approvals create cascading effects that degrade air-ground integration. The episode reinforces that if aviation and ground forces cannot communicate reliably, they cannot synchronize maneuver, fires, or protection—turning aviation from a force multiplier into a liability. 
 
The conversation also explores best practices for enabler integration, stressing that success is driven by commander emphasis and deliberate preparation at home station. Effective formations establish habitual training relationships, exchange LNOs early, rehearse air-ground communications repeatedly, and validate both digital and analog common operating pictures. Particular attention is given to the importance of shared graphics, airspace coordination, and rehearsed battle drills for degraded or denied communications. The panel underscores that enabler integration is not the responsibility of a single staff section; it requires commanders, S3s, S6s, aviation staffs, and supported units to collectively own the problem. The key takeaway is clear: aviation integration in LSCO succeeds when it is planned early, rehearsed often, and treated as a core warfighting task—not an afterthought added during RSOI or once units are already in contact.

The Joint Pacific Multinational Readiness Center (JPMRC) is the Army’s premier combat training center for preparing joint and multinational forces to fight and win in the Indo-Pacific region. Designed to replicate the complexity of LSCO in an archipelago environment, JPMRC challenges units across dense jungle, mountainous terrain, and dispersed islands while integrating land, sea, air, space, cyber, and the electromagnetic spectrum. To execute these demanding training rotations, JPMRC relies on the expertise of the Joint Readiness Training Center, drawing on JRTC Observer-Coach-Trainers and OPFOR subject-matter experts through borrowed manpower to provide realistic opposition and doctrinally grounded feedback to rotational units.
 
 
This episode examines the unique challenges of conducting large-scale combat operations in an archipelago environment, highlighting how terrain, distance, weather, and dispersion fundamentally reshape operations across all warfighting functions. A recurring theme is that island and jungle terrain compresses the fight vertically and horizontally, limiting mobility corridors, restricting observation, and degrading traditional ISR advantages. Dense vegetation and complex terrain reduce the effectiveness of aerial and space-based sensors, forcing units to rely more heavily on dismounted reconnaissance, local security, and detailed terrain analysis. Communications planning emerges as a critical friction point, as triple-canopy jungle and mountainous terrain degrade line-of-sight and satellite-dependent systems, requiring deliberate EMS analysis, redundant pathways, and adaptive low-signature solutions. Across the board, the panel reinforces that archipelago operations demand more time, more reconnaissance, and more deliberate planning than continental fights. 
 
The discussion also underscores how LSCO in an island chain is inherently joint, non-contiguous, and resource-constrained, placing a premium on integration and disciplined execution. Sustainment challenges dominate the problem set: moving personnel, equipment, fires, and supplies across multiple islands requires improvisation, redundancy, and acceptance that weather and the enemy will disrupt even the best plans. Fires and maneuver are constrained by limited positioning options, making predictability a vulnerability and forcing commanders to think in terms of infiltration, distributed operations, and attacking systems and nodes rather than massed formations. Mission command and detailed graphics become essential, as junior leaders may operate semi-independently with limited communications for extended periods. The episode reinforces a clear takeaway: archipelago LSCO magnifies friction across every domain, rewarding formations that plan in detail, rehearse relentlessly, empower subordinate leaders, and integrate effects across land, sea, air, space, and the electromagnetic spectrum.

126 S05 Ep 12 – Casualties Don’t Wait: Medical Planning for the Hardest Days of Ground Combat w/JRTC Experts

The Joint Readiness Training Center is pleased to present the one-hundredth-and-twenty-sixth episode to air on ‘The Crucible - The JRTC Experience.’ Hosted by the Senior Enlisted Medical Advisor and Role II Observer-Coach-Trainer for the Task Force Sustainment (BSB / CSSB), MSG Timothy Sargent on behalf of the Commander of Ops Group (COG). Today’s guests are all combat medicine professionals with Live Fire Division. SFC Anthony Norris is the Senior Medical OCT and SFC Tulio Perez is one of the Medical OCTs.
 
This episode focuses on medical planning, execution, and sustainment requirements for live-fire training at JRTC, emphasizing that success hinges on deliberate preparation rather than improvisation once training begins. The discussion highlights how rotational units must plan medical coverage early, accounting for asset allocation, Class VIII forecasting, casualty evacuation timelines, and route familiarity. A major theme is the gap between briefed plans and executable plans, particularly for CASEVAC and MEDEVAC under realistic conditions. Common friction points include poorly rehearsed CASEVAC plans, vehicles improperly configured for casualty movement, weak communications between objectives and higher headquarters, and a lack of shared understanding of evacuation decision authority. The episode reinforces that medics, leaders, and units must rehearse medical operations at home station, not during validation, to ensure rapid, confident execution when real-world casualties occur. 
 
The conversation also dives deeply into casualty collection points (CCPs), heat injury mitigation, and medical logistics, identifying recurring trends observed across rotations. CCPs are frequently under-planned, poorly resourced, or inadequately communicated below leadership level, creating delays during mass casualty or heat-injury events. The panel stresses the importance of time-distance analysis, realistic evacuation timelines from objectives to Role I and beyond, and prioritizing CASEVAC over waiting for limited MEDEVAC assets. Heat injuries emerge as a dominant driver of casualties, underscoring the need for disciplined hydration, nutrition, sleep, ice resupply, arm-immersion cooling, and sufficient thermometer probes and Class VIII supplies forward. The episode closes by reinforcing that medical success at JRTC—and in LSCO—depends on repetitions, rehearsals, logistics discipline, and leader involvement, ensuring medical systems can sustain tempo, preserve combat power, and return Soldiers to the fight.

125 S05 Ep 11 – BDE S4 vs SPO: No Dumb Questions, Roles and Responsibilities w/JRTC Sustainers

The Joint Readiness Training Center is pleased to present the one-hundredth-and-twenty-fifth episode to air on ‘The Crucible - The JRTC Experience.’ Hosted by MAJ Amy Beatty, the Task Force Executive Officer Observer-Coach-Trainer from Task Force Sustainment (Division Sustainment Support Battalion / Light Support Battalion) on behalf of the Commander of Ops Group (COG). Today’s guest is CPT Cody Kindlethe S-4 Sustainment Planner for JRTC’s Plans / Exercise Maneuver Control Task Force.
 
This episode explores sustainment in Large-Scale Combat Operations by breaking down how logistics must be planned, synchronized, and executed to survive and enable maneuver in prolonged, high-tempo fights. A central focus is clarifying the roles of the brigade S4 and the SPO, emphasizing internal versus external sustainment responsibilities and how confusion between the two creates friction, duplicated effort, and missed requirements. The discussion repeatedly returns to the idea that sustainment success is not personality-driven but competency-driven, rooted in disciplined math, running estimates, and forecasting. Log stats are framed not as reports for awareness, but as tools to validate assumptions, detect deviations from forecasts, and drive timely decisions. The episode stresses that effective sustainment requires forecasting 72–96 hours out at a minimum, with deliberate synchronization of consumption from the individual Soldier level through FSCs, the BSB/LSB, and higher sustainment echelons. 
 
The conversation also highlights best practices observed at JRTC, particularly the use of the logistics synchronization matrix as the sustainment fight’s primary combat product. When shared and nested across echelons, the sync matrix allows units to deconflict time and space, avoid emergency resupply, protect limited distribution assets, and maintain tempo without culminating. Leaders discuss how failures in synchronization lead to predictable breakdowns, including overworked distribution platoons, stalled maneuver units, and sustainment “blackout” periods during displacement. The episode concludes by framing sustainment in LSCO as a contested, continuous operation that demands redundancy, disciplined staff processes, and strong working relationships between logisticians at every echelon. Units that treat sustainment planning with the same rigor as maneuver planning are better positioned to endure the hardest days of ground combat and keep combat power forward.

124 S13 Ep 08 - From Order to Action: Why Receipt of Mission Sets the Fight w/JRTC MDMP Subject Matter Experts

The Joint Readiness Training Center is pleased to present the one-hundredth-and-twenty-fourth episode to air on ‘The Crucible - The JRTC Experience.’ Hosted by MAJ Marc Howle, the Brigade Senior Engineer / Protection Observer-Coach-Trainer, and MAJ David Pfaltzgraff, BDE XO OCT (formerly the BDE S-3 Operations OCT), from Brigade Command & Control (BDE HQ) on behalf of the Commander of Ops Group (COG). Today’s guests are two subject experts of the military decision making process at JRTC: MAJ Brent Paish and MAJ Michael Stewart. MAJ Paish is an Australian Army Exchange Officer serving as the S-3 Operations Officer OCT for TF-3 (IN BN). MAJ Stewart is the incoming BDE S-3 Operations Officer OCT for BC2 (BDE HQ).
 
This episode focuses on the often-skipped but foundational MDMP step: Receipt of Mission, arguing that many downstream planning failures stem from rushing or ignoring this phase. The discussion highlights why staffs frequently bypass receipt of mission—time pressure, overconfidence, and a desire to jump straight into “productive” planning products—while overlooking its true purpose: baselining the staff, establishing shared understanding, and setting conditions for disciplined execution. Key friction points identified include assuming everyone has read and interpreted the order the same way, failing to properly define task and purpose, and neglecting to separate immediate operational requirements from future planning tasks. Without a deliberate receipt-of-mission process, units routinely miss critical outputs such as a meaningful WARNORD, a coherent planning timeline, and early identification of specified and implied tasks. 
 
The episode also explores best practices observed at JRTC, emphasizing the value of a receipt-of-mission huddle to synchronize the staff, clarify roles, and prevent siloed planning. Effective units use this moment to align planning horizons, assign responsibilities, and ensure subordinate elements can begin parallel planning in accordance with the 1/3–2/3 rule. The panel stresses that receipt of mission is not a formality but a force-multiplier that enables tempo, prevents stagnation, and supports timely movement and transitions once units are already in contact. By deliberately executing this step, commanders and staffs reduce friction, improve mission analysis quality, and create the shared understanding required to operate effectively in LSCO under compressed timelines and degraded conditions.

123 S05 Ep 10 – Ghost Logistics: How Sustainment Stayed Alive in the Box w/LTC Wilson, 307 Light Support Battalion

The Joint Readiness Training Center is pleased to present the one-hundredth-and-twenty-third episode to air on ‘The Crucible - The JRTC Experience.’ Hosted by MAJ Amy Beatty, the Task Force Executive Officer Observer-Coach-Trainer from Task Force Sustainment (Division Sustainment Support Battalion / Light Support Battalion) on behalf of the Commander of Ops Group (COG). Today’s guest is LTC Ryan Wilson, the Battalion Commander for the 307th Light Support Battalion, 1st Mobile Brigade Combat Team (MBCT), 82nd Airborne Division.*
 
The 307th Light Support Battalion, formerly the 307th Brigade Support Battalion, is the sustainment backbone of the 1st Mobile Brigade Combat Team (MBCT), 82nd Airborne Division. Known by its Hollywood call sign “Blackdevil” and guided by the motto “Ready to Support,” the 307th traces its lineage to World War II, where it supported airborne operations in the European Theater before continuing service through the Cold War, the Global War on Terror, and into today’s LSCO-focused force. As a Light Support Battalion, the 307th has evolved from traditional rear-area logistics into a highly mobile, dispersed, and survivable sustainment formation—capable of supporting forced entry, austere operations, and prolonged combat while operating under constant enemy observation.
 
This episode examines tactical sustainment and logistics in LSCO, focusing on how Brigade Support Battalions must modernize to survive, enable maneuver, and remain relevant on a transparent, multi-domain battlefield. The discussion highlights evolving base cluster design as a survivability and command-and-control problem, not just a logistical one. Rather than mirroring legacy company-based layouts, effective units organize sustainment nodes around capability, unity of command, and protection, deliberately reducing signatures while preserving functionality. The episode also addresses the persistent friction between moving versus maneuvering logistics, emphasizing that sustainment formations are designed to distribute bulk commodities, not fight their way forward without protection. Best practices include integrating FSCs early into planning, rehearsing transitions from bulk to retail distribution, and treating sustainment as a shared responsibility between maneuver and support units rather than a transactional service. 
 
The conversation further explores multi-domain and modernization challenges shaping the sustainment fight, including EMS vulnerability, convoy survivability, and the difficulty of maintaining synchronization during frequent displacement. Leaders discuss how degraded communications, leadership attrition, and mass casualties compound sustainment friction, requiring disciplined initiative and empowered NCO leadership at echelon. Repeated emphasis is placed on concealment, noise and light discipline, timeliness, and rehearsed staff processes as decisive factors that protect sustainment combat power. The episode underscores that logistics in LSCO is not a rear-area function but a contested fight where culture, repetition, and leader-driven standards determine success. Ultimately, the takeaway is clear: units that modernize sustainment through protection, integration, and disciplined execution are better positioned to sustain the fight and enable decisive maneuver during the opening and sustaining battles of LSCO.

122 S13 Ep 07 - The Backbone in Action: Unleashing Non-Commissioned Officer Power at Echelon w/the JRTC Senior NCOs

The Joint Readiness Training Center is pleased to present the one-hundredth-and-twenty-second episode to air on ‘The Crucible - The JRTC Experience.’ Hosted by MAJ Marc Howle, the Brigade Senior Engineer / Protection Observer-Coach-Trainer, and MAJ David Pfaltzgraff, BDE XO OCT (formerly the BDE S-3 Operations OCT), from Brigade Command & Control (BDE HQ) on behalf of the Commander of Ops Group (COG). Today’s guests are senior non-commissioned officers of JRTC: MSG Jared Cawthon, MSG Randell Conway, and SFC Corey Rinn. MSG Cawthon is the BDE Fires Support NCOIC and MSG Conway is the BDE Intelligence NCOIC OCT in Brigade Command & Control (BDE HQ). SFC Rinn is the Explosive Ordinance Disposal Senior OCT for TF-5 (BDE Engineer BN).
 
This episode focuses on leadership through the deliberate and effective utilization of Noncommissioned Officers at echelon, emphasizing that success in LSCO is fundamentally leader business, not officer business versus NCO business. A central theme is the NCO’s role in identifying and mitigating friction before it manifests in execution. Drawing on repeated JRTC observations, the discussion highlights how experienced NCOs sharpen plans through rehearsals, checklists, and anticipation of second- and third-order effects—time, distance, sustainment, displacement, and execution risk—that are often missed in rushed or staff-centric planning. When NCOs are fully integrated into MDMP, mission analysis, COA development, and rehearsals, staffs are more synchronized, plans are more executable, and formations adapt faster once friction is encountered. 
 
The episode also addresses persistent gaps in how formations employ NCOs, particularly on staffs. Too often, senior NCOs are relegated to security or administrative tasks instead of being empowered contributors to planning, targeting, and cross–warfighting function integration. The panel underscores disciplined initiative, delegation of authority, and clear roles and responsibilities as decisive leadership practices that unlock NCO potential. Effective formations deliberately train NCOs to operate confidently in planning environments, leverage their experience to challenge assumptions, and serve as connective tissue between operations, intelligence, fires, sustainment, and protection. The consistent takeaway is clear: units that empower NCOs as planners, synchronizers, and leaders—not just executors—operate with less friction, greater cohesion, and higher combat effectiveness in the hardest fights.

121 S02 Ep 19 - Fight the Enemy, Not the Plan: Lessons from the Drop Zone w/Commanders from the Devil Brigade (1/82 ABD)

The Joint Readiness Training Center is pleased to present the one-hundredth-and-twenty-first episode to air on ‘The Crucible - The JRTC Experience’. Hosted by COL Ricky Taylor, the Commander of Ops Group (COG).
 
Established during the fierce fighting in the Italian campaigns of World War II, 1/82 was employed in multiple brush wars throughout the Cold War as well as in Operation Desert Storm and later as part of Operation Joint Guardian in Kosovo before deploying in support of the Global War on Terror. They have the Hollywood call-sign of “Devil” and the motto of “Strike and Hold.”
 
This episode brings together commanders from across an Infantry Brigade Combat Team (IBCT) to examine JRTC trends and best practices for preparing units for their hardest days of ground combat in LSCO across multiple domains. A recurring theme is the reality of operating under extreme friction, speed, and uncertainty, where units must fight the enemy—not the plan—while managing constrained planning timelines, high operational tempo, and limited resources. Commanders discuss how early phases of the fight, particularly airborne or austere insertions, expose weaknesses in logistics distribution, predictive sustainment, and mobility, often culminating units faster than anticipated. The panel reinforces that many perceived “logistics problems” are actually distribution and prioritization problems, solvable through disciplined LOGSTATs, predictive analysis, and deliberate LOGSYNC forums that align brigade priorities with battalion-level realities.  
 
Across echelons, leaders emphasize that success in LSCO depends on shared understanding and commander-driven dialogue, not perfect plans. Best practices highlighted include battlefield circulation to validate task and purpose, frequent commander-to-commander and commander-to-staff engagements, and clear articulation of risk to force, risk to mission, and opportunity gained. The discussion underscores persistent challenges in synchronizing fires, maneuver, and sustainment when staffs fall behind the fight, communications degrade, or units outrun their own situational awareness. Survivability and lethality on a transparent battlefield require formations to stay light, manage signatures, rehearse displacement, and ensure every Soldier—not just designated specialists—can employ critical systems like anti-armor weapons. Collectively, the panel reinforces a core JRTC lesson: disciplined fundamentals, predictive logistics, honest risk dialogue, and empowered leaders at echelon are what enable IBCTs to endure, adapt, and win during the opening battles of LSCO.
