Fellow Soldiers,
Does the Army produce physically fit Soldiers with the mental fortitude and tactical proficiency to prevail in combat?
Warrior
Tasks and Battle Drills (WTBDs) are the fundamental combat skills
trained to ALL Soldiers. The New Army Combat Fitness Test (ACFT) and
Holistic Health and Fitness program (H2F) provide the critical tools
necessary to assess and optimize Soldier performance.

As
the proponent for WTBD, H2F, and ACFT, the United States Army Center
for Initial Military Training conducts this survey every year. We need
to determine what the WTBDs should be, and whether we’re preparing our
Soldiers to execute them. As the operational environment evolves, and
our adversaries become more sophisticated and lethal, so too must the
way we physically train, condition, and test our Soldiers.
Your input in this process is vital.
The
link will take you to the WTBD/Soldier Readiness Survey. Your feedback
will influence WTBD content, and guide training, resourcing, and
programming decisions as we fine-tune and move towards full
implementation of H2F and ACFT.
If you encounter problems, or have any questions or concerns, please contact Dr. Stephanie Muraca-Grabowski at stephanie.t.muracagrabowski.
Please take the survey, make comments, and encourage other Soldiers to take it as well. We have to get this right.
Thanks,
Lonnie G. Hibbard
Major General, U.S. Army
Commander, USACIMT
