The rotation will include portions of the division\u2019s aviation, artillery and sustainment brigades, as well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A second exportable rotation is scheduled during fiscal 2022 for Army Alaska forces.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The new \u201cexportable\u201d CTC rotations have many advantages for both the training unit and the Army as a whole, Army Secretary Christine Wormuth told Army Times.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cThe exportable rotations are useful in a few different ways,\u201d she said. \u201cI think it provides our folks the opportunity to train in the environment where they would be operating\u2026and it also allows us to use our equipment in that terrain to see how our equipment holds up to see what unique sustainment challenges we might have.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The sustainment question looms large for units operating in Alaska\u2019s Arctic environment, Wormuth added.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Another reason to embrace the exportable rotation concept is pragmatic, she said \u2014 it\u2019s more cost-effective in an era when the Army budget is experiencing \u201cdownward pressure.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cIt saves money because obviously we\u2019re not having to bring these brigades all the way [to the mainland with] all of their equipment,\u201d she said. \u201cThat takes a lot of time, [and] the transportation costs are not insignificant.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Training in theater also offers increased chances for multinational training.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201c[These rotations] also frankly create some opportunities to again work with some of our allies and partners who are interested in some of those training opportunities,\u201d Wormuth noted. \u201c[Even] in Alaska, our European allies \u2014 the Scandinavian countries, Norway [and] Canada \u2014 they\u2019re very interested in combined training with us in cold weather environments.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">According to the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.staradvertiser.com\/2021\/10\/10\/hawaii-news\/army-exports-combat-training-center-exercise-to-hawaii-for-first-time\/\">Honolulu Star Advertiser<\/a>, troops from Thailand and Indonesia will be joining in the Hawaii rotations beginning Tuesday.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If these first two exportable rotations succeed, they may be used increasingly in the future, due in part to the funding challenges that the Army may face.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cWe\u2019ll want to see how we are doing in these first few rotations, but at least conceptually\u2026[increasing them is] something that we\u2019ll want to look at if they go well,\u201d Wormuth said. \u201cWe\u2019re really going to have to be looking for how we can operate as efficiently as possible.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Wormuth added that the Army will continue to explore unconventional concepts to meet operational needs and reduce spending moving forward.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cWe need to find innovative ways to do some things differently that help us achieve our objectives, but if it can create cost savings, I\u2019m very interested in that.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Why go to JRTC when JRTC can come to
