• To streamline review, discussion, and resolution
  of issues, all open issues have been binned to
  one of five categories
• 1. Exercise issues
• 2. Joint Training Requirements issues
• 3. Joint Individual and Staff Training issues
• 4. Joint Training Assessment and Readiness
  issues
• 5. Interagency issues
• While not all issues are a perfect fit, issues
  were placed in the bin that represented the best
  fit as of the close of the previous WJTSC.
  Issues may be re-binned by the Council of
  Colonels as appropriate.

Exercise and Joint Training Synchronization
RECOMMEND CLOSE
Red JS J7 JETD Comments

• Issue 06-020 USG exercise programs not
  adequately synchronized to effectively,
  efficiently and realistically exercise National
  Crisis Response readiness.
• Discussion DOD forces conduct exercises with
  civil authorities in the NORTHCOM AOR without the
  knowledge of USNORTHCOM (recommend delete first
  sentence). Scope of national exercises is
  limited by resources. Incorrect procedures can
  be reinforced, leading to actual responses
  without proper authorization, appropriate DOD
  funding and NEP consistency. Lack of
  synchronization contributes to lack of stability
  and predictability. Scheduling and exercise
  design issues still pose challenges to an
  effective NEP. Benefit to the synchronization of
  exercises downward between the services, their
  major commands and combatant commands. Effective
  exercise planning requires a reliable 2-5 year
  schedule for resources. All USG departments and
  agencies do not have adequate visibility over all
  pertinent exercises conducted in their AOR
• Endstate
• HSC/NSC designate certain exercises in a
  coordinated 5 year schedule as NEP Tier I,
  approve goals and objectives and provide top
  level guidance Scope out objectives, exercise
  participants and exercise locations to ensure
  cohesive planning with interagency partners
  (Completed at the 31 Jan 08 NEP scheduling
  conference. Combatant commands were present)
• Use WJTSC and NEPS conferences to coordinate 5
  year schedule and establish coordinated schedule
  for NLE with 5 year plan and solid dates 2 years
  out using a building block approach with exercise
  scopes tailored to priority objectives (Complete
  to the extent possible by identifying a target
  month on the NEX to conduct these exercises)
• Development of a standard JELC for NLE events to
  ensure greater synchronization in the planning
  process
• POAM
• Distribute approved NSC/HSC NEP guidance
  (Accomplished)
• Coordinate the Implementation Guidance and
  review major national exercises at each WJTSC

Red JS J7 JETD Comments
Issue 07-021 Ensure proper DoD representatives
and subject matter experts are nominated in a
timely fashion to support PLE. Discussion Delay
in selecting PLE topics and objectives severely
constrains ability to select proper DoD
representatives and SMEs and provide them with
background data for the exercise (While the
objectives were not known until the 11th hour,
SMEs from DoD were present at the 20 Feb PLE and
will be at the 5 Mar PLE) Endstate DHS provide
PLE topics and objectives 90 days prior to
exercise. DHS provide SME with background data
7 days prior to exercise (20 Feb 08 PLE had SME
representation. 90 day requirement is unrealistic
and not achievable. BLUF is that the point needs
to be made to the HSC or NSC needs to identify
objectives as early as possible) POAM DoD

DOD Participation Challenges in the National
Exercise Program
SUBMITTED BY USNORTHCOM
Red JS J7 JETD Comments

• Issue 08-003 DOD Participation Challenges in the
  National Exercise Program (NEP)
• Discussion
• a. Combatant command NEP participation
  challenges Combatant command objectives often
  cant be met or are compromised (in Tier I, CJCS
  will provide his objectives and the recommended
  level of COCOM play) lack of synchronization
  across federal spectrum no formal DoD process
  for combatant commands to nominate command
  exercises for the 5-year NEP exercise schedule
  (To be published in the revised CEP CJCSI).
  Combatant commands provide input to input
  through the J7 sub-PCC rep). JS will provide
  COCOMs results of sub-PCC meetings.
• b. 5-Year scheduling challenges in the NEP No
  fidelity in future years for Tier I, II, or III
  exercises info on state(s) and dates prohibits
  future planning for required funding, resources
  and forces (Jan 31, 2008 NEX scheduling
  conference provided Tier I, II calendar for the
  next two years, but lack specific dates)
• c. Combatant commands impacted by topic require
  seat at Principal Level Exercises (PLE)
  (Complete)
• Endstate Improved joint training effectiveness
  and efficiency as directed by Chairmans Joint
  Training Guidance. Supported / supporting roles
  IAW Plans / UCP. Staffs build relationships,
  conduct realistic rehearsal with actual
  counterparts.
• POAM
• - Use WJTSC, deconfliction and combatant command
  annual exercise conferences to link multiple
  exercises, taking advantage of NEP to link
  exercises / integrate mission areas to ensure
  regional / mission area coverage (Formal DOD
  exercise calendar input will be outlined in the

Use of Joint Live Virtual Constructive (JLVC)
Federation
OFFICE USE Updated 1/8/08 - SDH

• Issue 07-014 The Joint Live Virtual Constructive
  (JLVC) Federation provides the most realistic
  environment to align joint training with
  combatant commander assigned missions,
  requirements and constraints, yet JLVC is not
  provided as part of the standard modeling and
  simulation (MS) architecture for joint
  exercises.
• Discussion Current funding provides Joint
  Theater Level Simulation (JTLS) as the standard
  suite to support the Combatant Command Joint
  Exercise Program (JEP), however, JTLS lacks the
  fidelity to realistically model strategic
  movement and force sustainment. This training
  shortfall was noted in the Joint Staffs Training
  Capabilities Analysis of Alternatives (TC AoA)
  Gap 14. While JLVC addresses this gap, using the
  JLVC federation is an option only with additional
  Combatant Commander funding.
• Endstate Appropriate use of JLVC in Combatant
  Command exercises.
• POAM Combatant Commands provide details on
  which exercise(s) are most enhanced with the use
  of JLVC. CE2 SLT allocates funding for JWFC
  support (including JLVC) in accordance with CE2

BMD Systems Training Capability
Issue 07-017 CCDRs require a distributed,
integrated, synthetic Ballistic Missile Defense
Systems (BMDS) training system using real world
system capabilities, scenarios and
players. Discussion a. Independent simulated
missile defense training architectural
development between the Joint Forces Command
(JFCOM) Joint National Training Capability (JNTC)
and the Missile Defense Agencies (MDA)
Distributed Multi-echelon Training System (DMETS)
has resulted in duplication of synthetic missile
exercise and training requirements for Combatant
Commands, Components, and Services. b. Currently
the synthetic BMDS training environment does not
integrate or support multi-tiered mission sets
involving elements/units operating at all tiers
within the training architecture. c. There is a
need for a comprehensive ballistic missile
defense training system architecture that can
provide effective and efficient training for all
Tiers during unit or joint training exercises.  
Endstate A BMDS training architecture that
provides a "plug and play" capability that
facilitates growth and dynamic equipment
reconfigurations to simulate any/all elements,
reduces stand alone training systems / artificial
work-arounds, and decreases costs associated with
employing and sustaining multiple training
platforms.  POAM USJFCOM, in partnership
with USSTRATCOM develop BMDS Joint Training and
align Service enabled development of training
with COCOM mission training and exercise support
requirements. Concurrently USJFCOM, in close
coordination with MDA and the Combatant Commands,
develop a requirement based integrated and
federated BMDS synthetic training environment
interoperable at all tiers. OPR USSTRATCOM

Experimentation Testing (ET) in Joint Training
OFFICE USE Updated 1/8/08 - SDH
Issue 04-003 Lack of common DoD-wide process for
incorporation of ET into joint training.
Discussion DOTE engages multiple combatant
commands to search for venues. Short-notice
insertions disruptive to exercise planning. OSD
seeking to embed test activity in training to
test with appropriate joint context. USJFCOM
requires training environment to assess
capabilities such as DJC2, SJFHQ. Joint context
and resource limitations require test and
prototyping activity in training. USJFCOM
developed a manual for integrating ET into
USJFCOM sponsored and supported training.
Endstate Common policy for incorporating ET
activity in training POAM Form PAT to develop
DoD-wide process based on USJFCOM Manual, USPACOM
instruction, and other guidance. Develop
requirements for supporting tools and submit
through established requirements process. OPR

• Discussion Pursuant to their charter and
  consistent with UCP 06 to transform the US
  military, USJFCOM leads joint concept development
  and conducts joint experimentation designed to
  streamline our warfighting functions to more
  effectively meet the complexities envisioned for
  the future. Joint Operations Concepts (JOpsC)
  and Joint Experimentation (JE) are the primary
  mechanisms to identify and assess insights to
  shape capabilities for the joint warfighter.
  Joint experimentation activities explore the
  solutions proposed by future joint concepts. JE
  must have definite actionable recommendations
  ensuring full collaboration and coordination with
  combatant commands, services, and defense
  agencies.
• Endstate Recommendations reported annually in
  the JE Status and Recommendations (S R) Report
  and the Report to The Congress on Joint
  Warfighting Experimentation should be in the form
  of either DOTMLPF Change Recommendations (DCRs)

RECOMMEND CLOSE

• Issue 06-025 Current JELC is resource intensive
  (e.g. people, travel , time).
• Discussion
• JELC provides framework for design, planning,
  preparation, execution, analysis of JEP
• Notionally 12-18 months but has inherent
  flexibility 6-9 month cycles not uncommon
• JELC conferences typically held at supported
  commands location
• Collaborative communication technologies have
  improved in both capability and reliability
• Combination of collaborative information
  environment and face-to-face conferences may
  reduce resource intensity while maintaining
  effective product oriented JELC process
• Endstate Efficient, effective, flexible JELC.
  Combatant commands execute collaborative JELC
  resulting in better training and more efficient
  cost savings.
• POAM Working Group explored efficiencies to
  current JELC and recommended possible CIE tools
  and creative management. During WJSTC 07-1

Nuclear Weapons Accident Exercise
(NUWAX) Scheduling Management
SUBMITTED BY USNORTHCOM
Issue 08- 002 Control of NUWAX Joint Exercise
Life Cycle and exercise budget should go to the
responsible Combatant Commander Discussion IAW
DOD Directive 3150.8, DOD Response to
Radiological Accidents, dated 13 Jun 1996,
Geographical Combatant Commanders (GCCs) shall
plan for, establish, maintain, and exercise
Response Task Forces (RTFs) to manage actions
required to respond to a radiological accident.
Furthermore, each responsible GCC shall conduct
an RTF exercise at least once each year. The
scope and duration of the exercise will be
determined by the sponsoring command. Currently,
the Assistant Secretary of Defense for Nuclear,
Chemical and Biological Defense Programs
(ASD(NCB)) conducts oversight of DODs response
capabilities by managing DODs national-level
exercise program the Defense Threat Reduction
Agency (DTRA) serves as the DOD lead for
coordinating DOD radiological accident response
planning, training and national-level exercises
with other Federal agencies and the Services
train and equip RTF forces to respond to
radiological accidents. CDR USNORTHCOM position
is that NUWAXs need to be recognized as part of
the National Exercise Program (NEP) to ensure
full Interagency integration, and intends for
USNORTHCOM to be the lead in the planning and
execution of all NUWAXs conducted in his
AOR. Endstate Policy is developed by ATSD(NCB),
DTRA provides the responsible GCC technical
assistance with exercise design and control, and
the Services continue to train, equip and
exercise RTFs once per year as prescribed. The

Scheduling and OPSTEMPO
SUBMITTED BY USTRANSCOM

• Issue 08-007 Supporting Combatant Commands are
  challenged with satisfying Joint Exercise Program
  requirements given daily OPSTEMPO, personnel,
  fiscal and time constraints. This challenging
  situation is exacerbated when exercises are
  scheduled simultaneously during periods of
  increased activity. Earlier and more informed
  scheduling could alleviate support challenges,
  improve the quality and timeliness of support and
  potentially save resources by offering less
  expensive alternatives, particularly when
  strategic lift via the Defense Transportation
  System (DTS) is concerned.
• Discussion Individual combatant command
  exercises are planned and scheduled without fully
  studying the impact at any given time on required
  supporting capabilities (i.e. airlift assets, M
  S supporting systems, direct personnel
  augmentation, etc.). Additionally, there is
  neither a mechanism to deconflict between
  competing combatant command/Service exercises nor
  one to deconflict with known operational surge
  periods that further tax the same resources. No
  single scheduling authority exists and individual
  exercises are planned presuming they will be
  supported.
• End State Exercise scheduling is synchronized
  between Combatant Commanders taking into account
  real-world constraints and demands/costs of
  supporting JEP events. Combatant Commanders
  Exercise Engagement (CE2) forum recognizes and
  forwards solution for a deconfliction authority
  with informed visibility of real-world operations
  as well as joint and service exercise
  requirements. This deconfliction authority will
  be empowered to enforce calendar synchronization
  across the joint training enterprise.

Functional Exercises
SUBMITTED BY USTRANSCOM

• Issue 08-008 Prioritization of USTRANSCOMs
  Functional Exercises in support of Geographic
  Combatant Commanders (GCC) Joint Exercise
  Programs.
• Discussion USTRANSCOM sponsors four functional
  exercises Joint Logistics Over The Shore
  (JLOTS), the Joint Container Exercise Program
  (JCEP), Turbo Activation (TA), and Ultimate
  Caduceus (UC). While these functional exercises
  are sponsored by USTRANSCOM, they hone the skills
  required by GCC OPLANS/CONPLAN/TSC/HA
  requirements. In an effort to maintain the
  appropriate level of focus and priority on these
  unique skill sets USTRANSCOM requires GCC support
  incorporating them into out-year exercise
  schedules.
• While these capabilities exist exclusively to
  support GCCs, USTRANSCOM currently submits Joint
  Exercise prioritization for them, ranking them
  along with our internal Command CPXs (Turbo
  Series). To this point these exercises have been
  conducted as FTXs and without the potential
  benefits of JLVC initiatives to reduce cost and
  foster more regularly occurring realistic
  training.
• End State A six year exercise schedule for
  USTRANSCOM-sponsored functional exercises fully

CCDR Requires Joint Evaluation Team

• Issue 07-015 Combatant Commander requires a
  joint evaluation team that can measure Joint Task
  Force (JTF) performance to standard
• Discussion
• Combatant Commanders (CCDRs) are responsible
  for certifying the readiness of HQ staffs to
  serve as JTF-capable HQ. A key element of this
  task is to measure the capability of the HQ staff
  (during a culminating exercise) relative to
  standards. The culminating exercise comes at the
  conclusion of a detailed joint and multinational
  training regimen for the JTF.
• USPACOM requires a qualified team to observe
  and evaluate to standard, provide feedback both
  to the JTF Commander and CCDR, and to provide
  documentation on JTF performance to assist
  individual JTF and theater program improvements.
• Joint Training System (JTS) philosophy and
  execution have matured to where training
  audiences need critical insight and clearly
  documented feedback of what they did right and
  what areas require improvement.

letter dtd 12 Dec 07, Training Transformation
Joint Enterprise Principles we must ensure that
we understand the operational requirements and
architectures before we invest resources. That
direction, coupled with USJFCOM Unified Command
Plan tasks as the Joint Force Trainer,
establishes the need to better understand wider
combatant command joint training requirements.
Architecture views will assist in better
understanding combatant command joint training
requirements and help us refine the direction for
T2. As a supporting effort JWFC TD will
present and discuss a Universal Joint Task (UJT)
Mapping Tool -- A fully searchable and indexed
database which contains comprehensive Joint
Training information for each joint training
program and combatant command. The database will
address, but not be limited to JMETLs, tasks,
levels of accreditation and certification,
locations of programs and JTEN nodes,
connectivity requirements. Endstate

Joint National Training Center (JNTC) Governance
SUBMITTED BY USPACOM
Issue 08-006 Combatant commands have very
limited means to influence decision making within
the JNTC Governance Model Discussion JNTC as one
of the three legs of T2 has always had a primary
focus of improving quality and quantity of joint
context associated with Service training. Hence
the voting stakeholders were the Services.
Combatant commands have never had direct
representation. Combatant commands are
represented by a single Joint Staff POC. With
the proposed revised JNTC Governance business
rules it is not clear how the re-organization of
JNTC governing bodies does anything significantly
different to enable a greater voice for combatant
commands or address adjudication measures for
competing JNTC based priorities. As the proposed
rules are new, there maybe a need for
explanations / education on the new rules.
Under the current structure how will differences
between combatant commands priorities and Service
requirements be adjudicated when conflicts arise?
How do actions like the PJTE and associated
Joint Training and Experimentation Network (JTEN)
nominations fit into the voting scheme given that
combatant commands do not have a direct role in
the stakeholder process? Endstate Add a
business rule that allows the proper adjudication
of conflicts and addresses combatant command
priorities. POAM USJFCOM undertake a review
and propose a method to ensure combatant commands
are able to adequately participate in JTEN

Issue 07-003 JWFC DTT Observer/Controllers not
using JTIMS to record TPOs Discussion JWFC DTT
uses alternative protocols that do not readily
synchronize with JTIMS, creating inefficiencies
for operating forces. JWFC stated at WJTSC 06-2
that the JWFC DTT Observer / Controllers would
enter TPO comments into JTIMS as part of event
support. This did not happen for the JTF during
TERMINAL FURY 07. If qualified observers do not
enter TPO comments into JTIMS, the Training
Proficiency Evaluations that feed readiness
assessment will be diminished in value. TPO
comments were entered into JTIMS by JWFC OTs at
Talisman Saber 07 as a demonstration/test. Based
on that test, changes to JTIMS required to enable
population of TPOs and produce a Commanders
Summary Report baseline document (MS Word) for

JTIMS Update Requirement
Issue 07-019 Inconsistent updates of training
assessments in the Joint Training Information
Management System (JTIMS) Discussion JTIMS is
an integral part of a larger system, including
DRRS, that will identify readiness deficiencies
and help develop solutions. Yet JTIMS data update
requirements do not support timely identification
of deficiencies and issues. Joint training
readiness has been identified as a priority
issue by T2 leadership, and use of JTIMS is being
reviewed as part of the 2007 T2 Block Assessment.
Policy (JTM) states the commanders assessment
will be published as part of the annual JTP. A
recent review indicated that 60 of combatant
command JMET assessments are not published in
JTIMS. Policy also states it is critical to
have a linkage between Joint readiness and
training. Part of the T2 Block Assessment is
examining the linkage between DRRS and JTIMS.
DRRS requires assessments every 30 days whereas
JTIMS doesnt have the same rigor. Therefore it
appears there is a disconnect between training
and overall readiness assessments. The linkage
that will send TPAs and MTAs from JTIMS to DRRS
is the technical part of the solution. Endstate
JTIMS assessments will be synchronized with DRRS
requirements to provide a reliable, timely, and
consistent element of the system. CJCS policy
requiring periodic update of JTIMS assessment
data. POAM DRRS currently pulls TPAs from
JTIMS and displays the training assessment data
in the Training Tab of DRRS (Mission Assessment
Module). JS/J-7 is currently staffing proposed
policy language through the JSAP process which
requires periodic training assessment updates in
JTIMS. WJTSC 08-1 JTIMS currently provides the
capabilities to enter and approve assessments.
DRRS currently displays TPAs and will, in the
future, display MTAs. No additional requirements
identified for JTIMS, however, this remains an

JTIMS Force Requests Units and Individuals
Issue 07-013 A business rule (process) is
needed to enable sourcing of all exercise force
requirements via Joint Training Information
Management System (JTIMS). Discussion USJFCOM
J3 receives and processes force requirements that
sponsoring GCCs are unable to source. Presently,
only units may be inserted and resourced via
JTIMS. Many exercises require specialty skills
(or partial staffs) that cannot be defined as a
unit. These will be referred to as Below UIC
(BUIC) level requirements. Though the current JTM
states that these requirements should be filled
via Service channels, a change has been submitted
to reflect that USJFCOM J3 will assist in
sourcing BUICs. As articulated in the Joint
Training, Policy and Guidance (CJCSI 3500.01D),
Joint Training Manual (CJCSM 3500.03B) and on JS
J7 issue slide 07-006, JTIMS is the system of
record for requesting forces. Multiple GCCs
believe that a business rule (process) should be
established to avoid using disparate systems when
JTIMS can and should serve as the single system
of record for force requests. Endstate
USJFCOM J3 work with stakeholders to establish
straight-forward business rules (process) that
enables all force requirements (unit and BUIC)
via JTIMS. Additionally, USJFCOM J3 develop
JTIMS enhancements to support new process. POAM
