Contingency Force Program
1. The times as outlined in the proposed list of subjects
represents a minimum possible to bring a group to any degree of
proficiency. It is a certainty that some basics must be covered
in some cases as a review and for others as an initial introduction
to the subjects. While all of the personnel have had training
or experience in PM Operations, it is very doubtful that a group
of this size can be found with training experience in an phases
of P Operations.
2, The maximum number which the can handle regard-
field exercises and practical work is fifteen students. The
n
..
g
training area available for certain of the field problems is quite
limited and much of this work must be conducted by small teams,
therefore using a good portion of the entire base.
3, Any scheduling of this course mist be contingent to
prior commitments or arranged on a priority basis as not only the
training area is limited, but also the training staff. It would
also be desirable to have two weeks before starting one of these
amuses free for preparations, but in no case less than one week.
All of the scheduled instruction, with the exception of 25X1A2d1
and the Operations Course,, are only tentative commitments and the
