The Landscape has Changed

• “We are an Army at war, and transforming”– “The Army will continue to transform from the current to

the future force within the context of constant change and global challenges.”

– “We will transform even while we continue to conduct operations in contact with our enemies.”

– “We expect to accelerate the transformation of the Army’s doctrine, organization, training, materiel, leader development, people, and facilities.”

– “And we must constantly work to discover what we can bring forward from the future to the current force to increase our capability - now.”

• Immediate Focus– Provide Relevant and Ready Land Power Capability to

the Combatant Commander and the Joint Team– Train and Equip Soldiers and Grow Leaders

• The Soldier is the Center piece of transformation– Enable the Force
