Army Modernization Includes Training and People
Thursday, March 28, 2019
The Army of 2028 and beyond needs more than just the weapons and systems modernization that has received so much attention since the creation of the Army Futures Command.
While new capabilities are important, the Army also needs to evolve its doctrine, training, organizational structure, installations and personnel management, Lt. Gen. Eric J. Wesley, director of the Army Futures and Concepts Center, said in a keynote address at the Association of the U.S. Army’s Global Force Symposium and Exposition in Huntsville, Ala.
“We cannot modernize overnight,†he said, suggesting that changes will come at different speeds in different areas but all are headed toward the goal of being ready for multi-domain operations. And, it will be a total change, he said. “We will modernize the Army holistically, not as we’ve done in the past.â€
