Nt1330 Unit 3 Exercise 1

7-158 must curtail AFTP usage in IOT accomplish the battalion mission within the current allocation of AFTP to the battalion.

COA 1 (Flat Approach) Reducing the total number of AFTPs evenly across of the force. If we reduced all rated and nonrated crew members evenly across the force to get to the 475,000 mark.
