The Joint Readiness Training Center is pleased to present the thirty-first episode to air on ‘The Crucible - The JRTC Experience.’ Hosted by the Commander of Ops Group (COG), COL Matthew Hardman. Today’s guest is the Commanding General of XVIII Airborne Corps, LTG Christopher Donahue.
The XVIII Airborne Corps was founded in January of 1942 just five weeks after the US entered World War II at what was previously called Camp Polk (what would become Ft. Johnson). They saw extensive service during World War II, throughout much of the various conflicts of the Cold War, Operation Desert Shield / Desert Storm, and in support of the Global War on Terror. The corps is designed for rapid deployment anywhere in the world and is referred to as "America's Contingency Corps." They have the Hollywood call-sign of “Sky Dragons” or simply as “Dragon” and the motto of “All the Way.”
In this episode they discuss the evolution of training to ensure that the U.S. Army is prepared to conduct large scale combat operations across multiple domains. We discuss some of the modernization efforts that XVIII ABN is undergoing as well as the skillsets required at the tactical level to be a learning organization. Leaders must strive to not only meet the challenges today but anticipate the challenges of tomorrow and this requires leaders to shape their organizations in the following ways:
- Must be able to adapt and integrate.
- Must be able to understand your environment.
- Ability to utilize data in all its waveforms.
- Employ the various forms of mass across multiple domains.
Leaders at echelon must strive to set the conditions for success for their subordinate commands. In layman’s terms, we want to ensure that your people are provided an unfair advantage over their opponent. Common leader habits, regardless of echelon: show-up everyday & compete; build resiliency in yourself & your team; and disciplined initiative.
