Faced with changing adversaries and an increasingly complex operating environment, the Army must make sure soldiers are ready to fight, win and not just survive, but thrive, a senior Army leader said.
Speaking during the 2023 Holistic Health and Fitness Symposium at Fort Eustis, Virginia, Lt. Gen. Xavier Brunson, commander of I Corps, said the Army’s transformation for 2030 and beyond doesn’t just involve equipment and new technology.
“The stuff doesn’t matter if the people aren’t there. The stuff doesn’t matter if the people aren’t ready,” Brunson said. “Soldiers are facing the most significant operational environments of all time.”
As the Army modernizes its doctrine, force structure and equipment, its Holistic Health and Fitness system is a key part of modernizing how soldiers train, fuel and prepare, Brunson said.
