• New course for FY05
• Prepare DoD and Government Interagency staff
  officers to review, revise coordinate plans
  related to combating WMD at the level of Joint
  Staff, COCOMs Component Commands, OSD, CSAs,
  Service HQs
• Focus course on OPLANs, CONPLANs, FUNCPLANs at
  the combatant commander level
• UJTL SN 5.2.3, SN 9.2.2, ST 5.3.4

DTRA Agency Training Plan

• Plan published 15 July
• Challenges encountered
• Designed for organizations internal focus as a
  CSA, DTRA supports externally
• Tab C (METL) AMETS not in UJTL language
• Tab F (DTRA exercises) multiple roles performed
  by Agency not captured

• Tab X (individual training) used by Agency to
  link to Learning Management System

Example Tab C

• AMET 1 Support the U.S. Strategic Deterrent
• To maintain and monitor current asset
  availability, capability, and reliability status
  coordinate the safety, security, viability and/or
  credibility of the U.S. nuclear and specialized
  non-nuclear forces. This task includes providing
  analytical support for weapons effects expertise
  to facilitate target planning and advanced weapon
  concept development and assessment.
• SN 3.2 Manage National Strategic Firepower
• To manage all aspects of national strategic
  firepower to include targeting and attack policy,
  target selection, planning applications,
  readiness, generate and disperse forces, and
  maintain weapon stockpiles. The term strategic
  firepower is a far-reaching concept and is used
  here to refer to any type of attack (i.e.,
  nuclear, conventional, unconventional), both
  lethal and nonlethal, on targets of strategic
  value. 
• SN 3.2.4 Manage Strategic Weapon Stockpile
• To monitor strategic asset current
  availability/reliability, maintain current
  status, and assess current capabilities of
  assets. This task includes coordinating with
  combatant commands to ascertain requirements and
  working with components, operational commands,
  and support agencies within DOD and DOE to ensure
  weapons availability in support of strategic
  objectives.
• SN 7.2.4 Conduct Testing
• To evaluate and assess system or materiel
  performance appropriate to each phase and
  milestone of development. This task includes
  developmental test and evaluation (DTE) of
  alternative concepts and identification of risk.
  As operational test and evaluation (OTE), this
  task is to determine the operational
  effectiveness and suitability of a system under
  realistic conditions. Also included in this task
  is live fire test and evaluation (LFTE).

Issues

• 04DTRA01 Enhance JTS to provide mechanism to
  clearly show support from CSAs to customers
  (COCOMs, Services, others)
• Discussion Current focus for system is internal
  CSAs provide external support
• Impact CSAs support for COCOMs not readily
  visible
• Submitted By DTRA/Linda Qassim, Deputy, Training
  Inspections Division/[phone], DSN
  246-8673/ linda.qassim_at_abq.dtra.mil
• Endstate Agreed upon method to identify CSA
  support to COCOMs and COCOMs requirements for
  support JTS that includes an accurate role of
  the CSAs
