A large step toward Information Age war-fighting was completed in March at the Army's National Training Center (NTC), Fort Irwin, Calif. The Army's Experimental Force (EXFOR)-the world's first digitized ground force, the 1st Brigade, 4th Infantry Division (Mechanized)-deployed to the harsh conditions of the Mojave Desert at Ft. Irwin for an intensive, realistic war-fighting exercise against the NTC's vaunted Opposing Force (OPFOR), the 11th Armored Cavalry Regiment. The exercise was the culminating event of the TF XXI Advanced Warfighting Experiment (AWE)-a key part of the Army's Force XXI process of continuous experimentation and transformation which will result in Army XXI-the digitized force for the 21st Century.

This human dimensions assessment quantified the impact of changes in the work environment of soldiers and leaders who participated in the brigade level task force (TF XXI) Advanced Warfighter Experiment (AWE). The TF XXI AWE investigated the potential for digitizing land combat forces through the fielding of new technology equipment and accompanying changes in organizational design, tactics, techniques and procedures. Surveys and structured interviews were used to assess soldier and leader perceptions of TF XXI, the work environment, and organizational outcomes. The major finding is that as soldiers and leaders became more familiar with the new technology and its use, they were less threatened by it, and appreciated more the positive impact it would have on them, their units, and the Army as a whole. The findings also underscore potential problems with a number of different but clearly interrelated human dimensions. One example is the new career opportunities created by this technology within but also outside the Army, and the possible impact of these opportunities on Army wide personnel retention and recruitment programs. This study contributes to the requirement to define, quantify, and record empirical information to more fully understand and respond to the human dimensions of the Force XXI program.

The relative success of implementing technological changes in organizations is frequently related to the effectiveness of the technology implementation process itself. Consequently, when engaged in technological changes, organizations should monitor how the technology implementation process impacts employees. By monitoring this process, key decision makers are better able to determine the extent to which observed outcomes are due to new technology, per se, or are the by-product of changes in the work environment brought on by the technology implementation process. Human dimensions assessments are designed to monitor and record the human dimensions of changes that occur in the work environment. These assessments have been an important part of major Army initiatives since World War II. This human dimensions assessment quantified the impact of changes in the work environment of an experimental brigade-level task force (TF XXI) caused by an Advanced Warfighter Experiment (AWE). The TF XXI AWE was designed to investigate the potential for digitizing land combat forces. The digitization initiatives were highlighted by the fielding of new technology equipment, but included also changes in tactics, techniques and procedures, as well as some changes in organizational design. These digitization initiatives and the changes they caused in the work environment were examined for their impact on organizational effectiveness and on how participants perceived the AWE and their role in it. Based on a review of the literature, changes associated with the TF XXI AWE were expected to impact workload and the perceived meaningfulness of the work. Our data showed a large increase in the number of work hours reported by soldiers and leaders over the course of the AWE. The increase in work hours was most noticeable for Officers and was associated with an increase in work-family conflict for Officers.

"This report discusses tile Army's initial research into converting Force 21 Training Program (FXXITP) products to meet the increasingly pressing training needs of digital battle staffs. The report describes tile activities and outcomes of tile U.S. Research Institute for tile Behavioral and Social Sciences (ARI) Force 21 Training Program Digital (FXXITP-D) project. The project developed an approach that supports tile conversion of existing training products in order to meet new training needs. During tile project, the conversion approach was employed to research and enact conventional to digital conversions of selected FXXITP products, including tile Battle Staff Training System (BSTS) and Combined Arms Operations at Brigade Level, Realistically Achieved Through Simulation (COBRAS) vignettes, Brigade Staff Exercise (BSE), and Brigade and Battalion Staff Exercise (BBSE). In addition to tile conversion approach and prototype digital training products, tile project identified a number of lessons for tile continuing development of digital training and the digital force."--Stinet.

While the US military faces growing requirements to conduct Military Operations Other Than War (MOOTW), our command relationships are mired in the past, optimized for war, not MOOTW. General Purpose Forces are normally earmarked for Command and Control (C2) of these operations, with primarily conventional commanders, staffs, and service components establishing the Joint Task Force (JTF). Special Operations Forces (SOF) support the JTF. However, given the capabilities of SOF, this command relationship does not take advantage of SOF's strengths, and at times actually impedes our overall efforts. SOF can provide the regional CINC with superior multi echelon C2 in MOOTW. This thesis will demonstrate that the current US military C2 system is unsuitable, and that by changing it we will dramatically improve mission success probabilities, efficiency, and overall combat effectiveness. This thesis examines US operations in Somalia (Restore Hope) in order to shed light on key areas of sub optimization. A SOF based organization (JTF-XXI) will be proposed and compared to the Restore Hope JTF. The thesis will argue that the JTF-XXI is more effective and efficient, and should be adopted for future use.

Situational Awareness has become the central quest of U.S. Army force developments as the nation's ground combat arm of decision seeks to leverage greater effectiveness on the battlefield through information technology. As the term implies, situational awareness provides a combatant knowledge of his battlefield environment. A commander with complete situational awareness will know with certainty, among other elements of information, the status and disposition of his own forces as well as those of his opponent. Battlefield commanders throughout time have required some measure of situational awareness in order to impose their will on the enemy. Army leaders hypothesize that information age technology can be used to achieve information dominance over the enemy and that units equipped with greater situational awareness will fight more successfully than units without the added capability. In an effort to test this hypothesis the Army conducted an Advanced Warfighter Experiment (AWE) which began at Ft. Hood, TX and culminated in a focused rotation at the National Training Center, Ft. Irwin, CA. Although many initiatives in the area of information dominance were tested in the AWE, the centerpiece of the program was a test case unit designated as Task Force Twenty-One (TF XXI). TF XXI was a normal heavy maneuver brigade out of Ft. Hood, TX. The Army equipped and trained TF with the most promising prototype technology designed to provide commanders real-time situational awareness and information dominance. TF XXI was then tested against an opposing force at the NTC in live simulated combat.

The Army is in the midst of significant, far reaching change as it approaches the 21st Century. In the period following the Cold War and the Gulf War, and faced with significantly tighter budget constraints, the Army has embarked on a process that will guide its evolution into Army XXI. Initially spearheaded by the Louisiana Maneuvers (LAM) Task Force, the process has focused on changing from an industrial age to an information age Army. Critical to the success of this transformation is digitization of the force. Digitization will ultimately enable the Army to move and shape information in volumes and at rates unprecedented in the history of warfare. Technological breakthroughs in information operations will substantially improve the quality and timeliness of decision making and enhance the overall effectiveness of military systems and organizations on the battlefield. The rapid rates of change in information technology and the sweeping- impacts of such change on organizations and how the Army fights wars will create an extraordinary array of challenges for force developers. The Army must determine the impact of digitizing the force on a myriad of interrelated areas that include training, leader development, doctrine, interoperability, transition, and readiness. This is further complicated by the efforts to simultaneously visualize an end state that will unite and focus its efforts to accommodate change. It may be necessary for a traditionally conservative Army to "think outside the box," take innovative, even radical, approaches to examine its critical processes that feed and produce the output necessary to meet the needs of the national strategy.
