Army Knowledge Online (AKO) Army Knowledge Online (AKO) is an information that I us every day while I am at work and even when I am at home during the evenings and on the weekends. AKO allows Soldiers track and manage almost every aspect of my daily duties, AKO even allows Soldiers to track their medical readiness all the way to what items of clothing they have signed for.

Updated Soldiers is the greatest thing an organization can do. When taking the time set up all the different types of site organizations can create work can be more productive. One of the biggest flaws about AKO is the users that use the information system. If the user does not take the time to set these sites up AKO fails as an information system.

The purpose of this paper is to reflect the knowledge I have gained on the philosophy of mission command, warfighting functions and operation process, and cogitate how can I apply it in my future assignment to effectively…

    As stated in the Army Doctrine Publication (ADP) 6-0 (2012), “Communication is the means through which commanders exercise immediate personal control over their forces. Communication links information to decisions and then those decisions to actions. During the operations process, commanders will not make any decisions without first communicating effectively with their subordinates. For the reason that military operations require joint efforts, effective communication is imperative (ADP 6-0, 2012).” Communication in many forms is important to ensure that accurate and appropriate information is disseminated correctly and effectively through the ranks to accomplish the mission…

    Example Of Sustainment

    Sustainment operations encompasses Army operations from top to bottom. It’s described in ADRP 4-0 as availability of force readiness measured by its sustainment. Sustainment maintains the Army Forces by manning it with trained Soldiers and leaders; funding it with required resources; equipping it with the materials needed (individual and unit); maintaining Soldier and Family readiness; and sustaining it for decisive action. The commanders at all levels should evaluate the operational environment, understand its needs, and make crucial decisions to ensure the success of future operations. One example is when we had an upcoming deployment which involved the entire battalion, with two companies (A and C Company) sent to different regions of Afghanistan to augment two separate Task Forces, while the third company (B Company) would deploy organically with the battalion.…

    The Importance Of Stewardship Of The Army Profession

    Stewardship of the Army Profession and Civilian-Military Relations There are five core characteristics that compose the Army profession; trust, honorable service, military expertise, stewardship, and esprit de corps (Army Doctrine Reference Publication (ADRP) 1, The Army Profession, 2015, p. 6-1). While all are critical to maintaining a healthy Army, stewardship, as described in ADRP 1 chapter 6, is the central tenant I believe keeps the other four alive. Stewardship is the act of taking care of something. Without it, other core values merely come and go. Like a garden that has good soil, light, and water, it will all still wither away without a gardener to routinely provide more water, turn the soil, and prune the plants.…

    The Operations Process And Troop Leading Procedures

    The relationship between the Operations Process and the Troop Leading Procedures exist in a symbiotic and mutually necessary system. This system allows leaders to plan, prepare for, and react to various missions and situations in a fluid and organized fashion. As situations develop on a global scale, our national leaders continually develop the policy and precedent that drives the Troop Leading Procedures that lower level leadership is responsible for. Once higher level leadership passes down orders through the Operations Process, actions are taken in the field and in support of maneuvers by lower level leaders and their troops. These smaller units, in turn, gather intelligence and detailed knowledge of the environment and pass this information…

    Technology: The Impact Of Advanced Technology On The Military

    The new technologies have integrated many sectors of combat system industries which needs a high level of qualification. Naomi Verdugo and Nehama E. Babin write in “The Impact of Advanced Technology on the U.S. Military”, that it is mandatory to adapt the skills of manpower to the requirements of new technologies. It will demand greater knowledge and more sophisticated skills than are presently. For instance, computer systems and networks remain advanced technology which is used now in the majority of telecommunication systems thus radically changing the profile of the users of these systems from soldiers to operators. This also will generate the need for skilled personnel in the maintenance sector because of the greater sophistication of new systems.…
