Commanders will soon be given four standards to assess training restarts at their units

The Army is eager to restart battalion- and brigade-level training. And soon, commanders across the country will use a transition framework to determine whether operations at that scale are feasible based on the testing capacity they have at their home station and the number of COVID-19 cases in their local area, according to a senior Army official who spoke on background.
Large-scale collective training is part of how units prepare for overseas deployments and rotations to combat training centers, though the Army has stressed that training at the squad-level and for enablers is also important and that has been ongoing.
“Just like the country, we’re trying to transition,†said the senior official. “The notion of ‘opening up America’ is the same kind of framework that we took to open back up the Army, if you will, to get back to training.â€
