the cadre column of appropriate TOE or, if appropriate TOE does not include
cadre requirements, as designated by the respective major services
2) The requirement for each designated TOE unit to
maintain an alternate qualified cadre insures the capability of units to provide
the skeletal force to activate a similar type unit in any rapid expansion of the
AFP. This requirement makes it necessary for units to select and train
alternate personnel for TOE positions designated as cadre positions.
Personnel may become qualified to serve as members of a cadre through
OJT, training in service schools, or through prior experience in an MOS/AFS.
Maximum advantage should be taken from service school quota for the
training of cadre personnel. Unit training of the cadre is normally conducted
as OJT under close supervision of the persons assigned to the TOE positions.
Unit commanders should make provisions for training an alternate cadre
concurrently with conduct of normal AFP training program and operational
readiness training.
Unit training develops and sustains those individual and collective skills
that soldiers and units (including squads, crews, and sections) need in order
to accomplish their missions. To help soldiers and leaders learn and sustain

Effective unit training requires the personal time, energy, and guidance
of commanders. Commanders must personally observe and assess training at
all echelons. Their specific emphasis is on training one level down and
evaluating two levels down. For example, battalion commanders train
company commanders in handling their units and evaluate platoon leaders
with their platoons. Company commanders train platoon leaders with their
platoons and evaluate section, squad, team, and crew leaders with their units.

This training can be conducted by the company or by the battalion units of the
Philippine Army. The training shall include but not limited to patrolling, battle
drills, movement formation & techniques, map reading, troop leading
procedures and familiarization/marksmanship training.
There are four (4) modules for the company retraining which
emphasizes on individual skills and teamwork. Special unit training schools,
however, can incorporate into the modules subjects relevant to their
respective field of expertise. Likewise, an evaluation and after activity review
(AAR) are integrated after every module in order to determine the level of
proficiency and comprehension achieved by the unit. The training will be
conducted in four (4) phases namely:

of instruction shows how something is done. It illustrates principles on why
something works and set workmanship standards. Some of its more important
uses are to: teach manipulative operations and/or procedures like how
something is done; equipment operations or functions, like how something
works and safety procedures. It also teaches teamwork, like how people work
together to do something as a team.

information to show the operational situation picture to the higher
headquarters. Controllers are allowed free access to player facilities to
perform their assigned duties, but they do not interfere with player.
CFX is an excellent vehicle for training leaders and staff with full
C3 and logistical systems. It is less expensive and exercise intersystem
linkages and real distances. Moreover, it sharpens unit skills in such areas as
intelligence, fire support, combat service support, rear area operations and
C3.

The planning steps for JTX are similar to the preparation for the
conduct of other types of exercises. The planning staff includes
representatives from all the services involved. Each service must have
adequate time to plan, staff, and approve its exercise support plans.
