Force Stabilization How We Will Man The Force

• Unit Focused Stability
• Synchronizes with Unit Operational Cycle
• Minimizes Soldier losses for deployed units
• Provides combat ready, agile, cohesive units
• Uses Lifecycle and Cyclic Manning Management

• Stabilization
• Most stability and predictability
• Longer assignments for CONUS-based Soldiers and
  Families
• Extended initial tours
• Enables higher levels of cohesion
• Uses a regional approach
• Multiple opportunities to return to same post

• Individual Replacement System (IRS)
• Current system doesnt go completely away
• Used for most OCONUS units until return to CONUS
• Used for the Institutional Army (TRADOC, etc)
• Some low density specialties will always stay IRS
  (not you)

19
What Isnt Changing?
The Soldier is the Centerpiece of all our Units.

• Soldiers are
• The most effective, flexible, and adaptable asset
  we possess
• The Armys best sensor receives, processes
  information better than any technology
• The face of the United States overseas

Everything We Do is Designed to Support Them
20
Personnel Impact

• Year round assignments (permanent) with
  abbreviated lead times (for the next several
  years).
• Greater turbulence in the near term.
• High PERSTEMPO.
• Significant increase in MSC authorizations,
  primarily within the AOCs of 70B, 70H, 70K, 72D,
  73A, and 73B.
• Career path changes.
• Objective force model changes.
• Behavior Change Cultural Change

Masking Early OERs
2LT / WO1 1LT / CW2
CPT / CW3

• POLICY
• WO1 reports masked after selection to CW3
• LT reports masked at promotion to CPT
• Eliminates concerns over a zero defects system
• Officer Records Brief lists duty positions

Remember all LT OERs are seen by CPTs
board-Even LT Sarmientos.
57

• Reinforcing Rules
• First single top box at a given grade will
  generate an ACOM label at DA, regardless of
  profile (of the first four OERs in a grade, by
  component, any one, but only one, can be an
  ACOM.)
• Cannot mention box check in the narrative
• Restarts by grade, with SRs permission, after 3
  reports a documented misfire in that grade have
  been processed at HQDA

58
OER/AER Tips

• Ratee
• Closely review/verify OER/AER administrative
  information
• Record the correct duty title/description
• Dont expect an ACOM!!! Especially with small
  SR profile
• If you are in a LTHET program, discuss with
  rater about
• commenting on your
• Leadership and Management skills
• Potential to serve in key positions
• Future education potential
• Good looks just kidding
• Rater/Senior Rater
• Paint a clear word picture of accomplishments
  and potential
• Dont be overly verbose or skimpy on comments
• Say what you mean (talk reality)
• Quantify where possible

59
Senior Rater Tips

• Know your Population, e.g. How They Perform, When
  they go before Boards When Reports will be
  Due.....
• Look Ahead, Establish a Plan, Develop rating
  philosophy based on Center of Mass norm --
  Goal is 1/3 in Top Box, ensure Top Box is always
  less than 1/2
• Review rating chains combine small populations
  into larger groups where possible, allowing for a
  Broader View and a Better Comparison
• Consider Start-up Costs (1st 4 reports in each
  grade, only 1 ACOM)
• Can not Hold OERs Past 90 Days
• Quantify where possible

Boards-Tips from Peanut Gallery (AKA my 2 Cents
after 2 years)

• PLS read the MILPER MSG when sent OER Closeout
  dates, where to send documents to add for
  expedited processing, and where to send letters
  to the board
• Have a DA photo taken close to board date for
  boards that are important to you the new norm
• Check a box when you visit My board file the
  selection board members may interpret not
  reviewed to mean does not care
• File Clutter (Certificates of Appreciation for
  Bake Sale after Bronze Star, etc.)
• Adding and removing documents (one is harder,
  believe it or not) please wait 6-8 weeks before
  resubmission if not for a board
