In the early 1980s the Army committed to developing a |
|
peacetime unit replacement system to change the way it |
|
manned the force. The COHORT experiment became the focus |
|
for unit replacements and supposedly pointed the path to |
|
a wartime replacement system based on units rather than |
|
individuals. The Wartime Replacement System Study (WTRSS) |
|
developed a concept for unit replacement operations and |
|
provided conclusions and recommendations for implementing |
|
a new system. However, there were numerous problems and |
|
impediments for successfully implementing a unit manning |
|
system that could sustain and be sustained in war. This |
|
study closely examines the recommendations of the WTRSS |
|
and focuses on those issues which appear to be |
|
warstoppers and questions the feasibility and |
|
desirability of converting to a unit manning system as |
|
opposed to continuing with the individual replacement |
|
system. It reviews the descriptions and definitions of |
|
the current system as well as the proposed system. It |
|
also looks at the current COHORT sustainment model as a |
|
possible pathfinder for transition to a unit manning |
|
system in war. |
