O/C Training Heisenburg Uncertainity Principle As a member of BCTP, you may cause inordinate concern and activity if you ask a direct question to a division or brigade soldier. Units consider you an evaluator and often react to your questions. Instead, attempt to answer your questions by observing—looking at charts, listening to conversations, checking maps, logs, etc. COMBINED ARMS. . . DECISIVE VICTORY
O/C Training Stockholm Effect As a fellow professional, you will want the soldiers and unit to do well during the exercise. This prompts the temptation to help the unit. The danger is that the unit will do whatever you say, and concurrently, they will hold you responsible for any outcome, favorable or unfavorable. Remain somewhat distant and impartial. COMBINED ARMS. . . DECISIVE VICTORY
O/C Training Heimlich Maneuver Sometimes AAR requirements will drive you to return for specific information. The degree of importance and urgency will warrant violating the Heisenburg Principle. The commander of BCTP, COG, or a senior observer may direct you to get key information. You may have to get the information by “brute force, ” far exceeding the Heisenburg effect by figuratively applying the Heimlich Maneuver. COMBINED ARMS. . . DECISIVE VICTORY

AAR Elements • The after-action review (AAR) consists of four parts: – Establish what happened. – Determine what was right or wrong with what happened. – Determine how the task should be done differently the next time. – Perform the task again COMBINED ARMS. . . DECISIVE VICTORY
AAR Elements • Establish what happened. – The evaluator and the participants determine what actually happened during performance of the training task. For force-on-force training, OPFOR members assist in describing the flow of the training event and discuss training outcomes from their points of view COMBINED ARMS. . . DECISIVE VICTORY
AAR Elements • Determine what was right or wrong with what happened. – The participants establish the strong and weak points of their performance. The evaluator plays a critical role in guiding the discussions so that conclusions reached by participants are doctrinally sound, consistent with Army standards, and relevant to the wartime mission. COMBINED ARMS. . . DECISIVE VICTORY
AAR Elements • Determine how the task should be done differently the next time. – The evaluator leads the group in determining exactly how participants will perform differently the next time the task is performed. This results in organizational and individual motivation to conduct future sustainment training at desired levels of proficiency. COMBINED ARMS. . . DECISIVE VICTORY
AAR Elements • Perform the task again. – This is done as soon as possible to translate observation and evaluation into corrective action. Additional training allows the participants to apply the lessons learned during the AAR. Leaders understand that all tasks will not be performed to standard. Therefore, during the short-range and near-term planning process, they provide flexibility in training events and schedules which allow for additional training immediately following the AAR.
