CHAPTER 1 INTRODUCTION GENERAL This manual identifies the individual MOS training requirements for soldiers in MOS 91A. Commanders, trainers, and soldiers should use it to plan, conduct, and evaluate individual training in units. This manual is the primary MOS reference to support the self-development and training of every soldier. Use this manual with soldier's manuals of common tasks (STP 21-1-SMCT and STP 21-24-SMCT), Army training and evaluation programs (ARTEPs), and FM 25-101, Battle Focused Training, to establish effective training plans and programs which integrate soldier, leader, and collective tasks. SOLDIER'S RESPONSIBILITIES Each soldier is responsible for performing individual tasks which the first-line supervisor identifies based on the unit's METL. The soldier must perform the task to the standards listed in the SM. If a soldier has a question about how to do a task or which tasks in this manual he or she must perform, it is the soldier's responsibility to ask the first-line supervisor for clarification. The first-line supervisor knows how to perform each task or can direct the soldier to the appropriate training materials. NCO SELF-DEVELOPMENT AND THE SOLDIER'S MANUAL Self-development is one of the key components of the leader development program. It is a planned, progressive, and sequential program followed by leaders to enhance and sustain their military competencies. It consists of individual study, research, professional reading, practice, and self-assessment. Under the self-development concept, the NCO, as an Army professional, has the responsibility to remain current in all phases of the MOS. The SM is the primary source for the NCO to use in maintaining MOS proficiency. The self-development test (SDT) is an evaluation of the NCO's knowledge of the entire MOS, as well as leadership and training management. The SM is an important study reference for the NCO to use in preparing for the SDT. Another important resource for NCO self-development is the Army Correspondence Course Program (ACCP). Refer to DA Pamphlet 351-20 for information on enrolling in this program and for a list of courses, or write to: Commandant, Academy of Health Sciences, US Army, ATTN: MCCS-HSN, Fort Sam Houston, TX 782346100. Unit learning centers are valuable resources for planning self-development programs. They can help access enlisted career maps, training support products, and extension training materials.

CHAPTER 2 TRAINER'S GUIDE (TG) GENERAL The TG identifies the essential components of a unit training plan for individual training. Units have different training needs and requirements based on differences in environment, location, equipment, dispersion, and similar factors. Therefore, the TG is a guide used for conducting unit training and not as a rigid standard. The TG provides information necessary for planning training requirements for the MOS. The TG- Identifies subject areas in which to train soldiers. Identifies the critical tasks for each subject area. Specifies where soldiers are trained to standard on each task. Recommends how often to train each task to sustain proficiency. Recommends a strategy for cross-training soldiers. Recommends a strategy for training soldiers to perform higher level tasks.
BATTLE FOCUSED TRAINING As described in FM 25-100, Training the Force, and FM 25-101, Battle Focused Training, the commander must first define the mission essential task list (METL) as the basis for unit training. Unit leaders use the METL to identify the collective, leader, and soldier tasks which support accomplishment of the METL. Unit leaders then assess the status of training and lay out the training objectives and the plan for accomplishing needed training. After preparing the long- and short-range plans, leaders then execute and evaluate training. Finally, the unit's training preparedness is reassessed, and the training management cycle begins again. This process ensures that the unit has identified what is important for the wartime mission, that the training focus is applied to the necessary training, and that training meets established objectives and standards. RELATIONSHIP OF SOLDIER TRAINING PUBLICATIONS (STPs) TO BATTLE- FOCUSED TRAINING The two key components of enlisted STPs are the Trainer's Guide (TG) and Soldier's Manual (SM). The TG and SM give leaders important information to help in the battle-focused training process. The TG relates soldier and leader tasks in the MOS and SL to duty positions and equipment. It provides information on where the task is trained, how often training should occur to sustain proficiency, and who in the unit should be trained. As leaders go through the assessment and planning stages, they should use the TG as an important tool in identifying what needs to be trained.

STP 8-91A15-SM-TG
The execution and evaluation of soldier and leader training should rely on the Armywide training objectives and standards in the SM task summaries. The task summaries ensure that soldiers in any unit or location have the same definition of task performance and that trainers evaluate the soldiers to the same standard. The diagram on the following page shows the relationship between battle-focused training and the use of the TG and SM. The left-hand side of the diagram (taken from FM 25-101) shows the soldier training process while the right side of the diagram shows how the STP supports each step of this process. TRAINER'S RESPONSIBILITIES Training soldier and leader tasks to standard and relating this training to collective mission-essential tasks is the NCO trainer's responsibility. Trainers use the steps below to plan and evaluate training. Identify soldier and leader training requirements. The NCO determines which tasks soldiers need to train on using the commander's training strategy. The unit's METL and ARTEP and the MOS Training Plan (MTP) in the TG are sources for helping the trainer define the individual training needed. Plan the training. Training for specific tasks can usually be integrated or conducted concurrently with other training or during "slack periods." The unit's ARTEP can assist in identifying soldier and leader tasks which can be trained and evaluated concurrently with collective task training and evaluation. Gather the training references and materials. The SM task summary lists all references which can assist the trainer in preparing for the training of that task. Determine risk assessment and identify safety concerns. Analyze the risk involved in training a specific task under the current conditions at the time of scheduled training. Ensure that your training preparation takes into account those cautions, warnings, and dangers associated with each task. Train each soldier. Show the soldier how the task is done to standard and explain step-by-step how to do the task. Give each soldier one chance to do the task step-by-step. Emphasize training in mission-oriented protective posture (MOPP) level 4 clothing. Soldiers have difficulty performing even the very simple tasks in a nuclear/chemical environment. The combat effectiveness of the soldier and the unit can degrade quickly when trying to perform in MOPP 4. Practice is the best way to improve performance. The trainer is responsible for training and evaluating soldiers in MOPP 4 so that they are able to perform critical wartime tasks to standards under nuclear/chemical environment. Check each soldier. Evaluate how well each soldier performs the tasks in this manual. Conduct these evaluations during individual training sessions or while evaluating soldier proficiency during the conduct of unit collective tasks. This manual provides an evaluation guide for each task to enhance the trainer's ability to conduct year-round, hands-on evaluations of tasks critical to the unit's mission. Use the information in the MTP as a guide to determine how often to train the soldier on each task to ensure that soldiers sustain proficiency.

Record the results. The leader book referred to in FM 25-101, appendix B, is used to record task performance and gives the leader total flexibility on the method of recording training. The trainer may use DA Forms 5164-R (Hands-On Evaluation) and 5165-R (Field Expedient Squad Book) as part of the leader book. The forms are optional and locally reproducible. STP 21-24-SMCT contains a copy of the forms and instructions for their use. Retrain and evaluate. Work with each soldier until he or she can perform the task to specific SM standards. EVALUATION GUIDE An evaluation guide exists for each task summary in the SM. Trainers use the evaluation guides year-round to determine if soldiers can perform their critical tasks to SM standards. Each evaluation guide contains one or more performance measures which identify what the trainer needs to observe to score a soldier's performance. Each step is clearly identified by a "P" (Pass) and "F" (Fail), located under the "Results" column on each evaluation guide. Some tasks involve a process which the trainer must observe as the soldier performs the task. For other tasks, the trainer must evaluate an "end product" resulting from doing the task. The following are some general points about using the evaluation guide to evaluate soldiers: Review the guide to become familiar with the information on which the soldier will be scored.
Ensure that the necessary safety equipment and clothing needed for proper performance of the job are on hand at the training site. Prepare the test site according to the conditions section of the task summary. Some tasks contain special evaluation preparation instructions. These instructions tell the trainer what modifications must be made to the job conditions to evaluate the task. Reestablish the test site to the original requirements after evaluating each soldier to ensure that conditions are the same for each soldier. Advise each soldier of the information in the Brief Soldier section of the task summary before evaluating. Score each soldier according to the performance measures in the evaluation guide. Unless otherwise stated in the task summary, the soldier must pass all performance measures to be scored GO. If the soldier fails any steps, show what was done wrong and how to do it correctly. Record the date and task performance ("GO" or "NO-GO") in the leader book.
TRAINING TIPS FOR THE TRAINER 1. Prepare yourself. Get training guidance from your chain of command on when to train, which soldiers to train, availability of resources, and a training site.
2-4
STP 8-91A15-SM-TG
Get the training objective (task conditions and standards) from the task summary in this manual.
Ensure you can do the task. Review the task summary and the references in the reference section. Practice doing the task or, if necessary, have someone train you on the task. session. Choose a training method. Prepare a training outline consisting of informal notes on what you want to cover during your training
2. Prepare the resources. Obtain the required resources identified in the conditions statement for each task. Gather equipment and ensure it is operational. Coordinate for use of training aids and devices.
Prepare the training site according to the conditions statement and evaluation preparation section of the task summary, as appropriate. 3. Prepare the soldiers. Tell the soldier what task to do and how well it must be done. Refer to the standards statement and evaluation preparation section for each task as appropriate. the task. Caution soldiers about safety, environment, and security. Provide any necessary training on basic skills that soldiers must have before they can be trained on
Pretest each soldier to determine who needs training in what areas by having the soldier perform the task. Use DA Form 5164-R and the evaluation guide in each task summary to make this determination. 4. Train the soldiers who failed the pretest. Demonstrate how to do the task or the specific performance steps to those soldiers who could not perform to SM standards. Have soldiers study the appropriate materials. Have soldiers practice the task until they can perform it to SM standards. Evaluate each soldier using the evaluation guide.
2-5
STP 8-91A15-SM-TG
Provide feedback to those soldiers who fail to perform to SM standards and have them continue to practice until they can perform to SM standards. 5. Record results in the leader book. MILITARY OCCUPATIONAL SPECIALTY TRAINING PLAN One of the key components of the TG is the MOS Training Plan (MTP). The MTP has two parts to assist the commander in preparing a unit training plan which satisfies integration, cross-training, train-up, and sustainment training requirements for soldiers in this MOS. PART ONE Part one of the MTP shows the relationship of an MOS SL between duty position and critical tasks. The critical tasks are grouped by task commonality into subject areas. Section I lists subject area numbers and titles used throughout the MTP. Section II defines the training requirements for each duty position within an MOS and relates duty positions to subject areas and cross-training and train-up/merger requirements. Duty position column--contains the MOS duty positions, by skill level, which have different training requirements. Subject area column--lists by subject area number, the subject areas in which the soldier must be proficient for that duty position. Cross-train column--lists the recommended duty position for which soldiers should be cross-trained.
Train-up/merger column--lists the corresponding duty position for the next higher SL or MOS the soldier will merge into on promotion. PART TWO Part two lists by subject areas, the critical tasks to be trained in an MOS, task number, task title, location, sustainment training frequency, and training SL. Subject area column--lists the subject area number and title in the same order as in the MTP, Part One, Section I. Task number column--lists the task numbers for all tasks included in the subject area. Task title column--lists the task title.
Training location column--identifies the training location where the task is first trained to STP standards. If the task is first trained to standard in the unit, the word "UNIT" will be in this column. If the task is first trained to standard in the training base, it will identify the resident course where the task was taught.

CHAPTER 3 MOS SKILL LEVEL TASKS Section I Skill Level 1 Tasks ________________________________________________________________________________________ 101-521-1133 USE THE ARMY MASTER DATA FILE RETRIEVAL MICROFORM SYSTEM (ARMS) CONDITIONS Necessary materials, equipment, and references: microfiche viewer, operator's manual, Army Master Data File (AMDF), United States Army Catalog Data Agency (USACDA) Pam 18-1, SB 700-20, DA Pam 25-30, Federal Supply Catalog Identification List (IL), and Federal Supply Catalog Master Cross-Reference List (MCRL). STANDARDS Complete all steps in accordance with (IAW) applicable publications. TRAINING/EVALUATION Evaluation Guide Performance Measures NOTE: Refer to AMDF for steps 1 and 2; USACDA Pam 18-1 and SB 700-20 for step 2; IL for step 3 and DA Pam 25-30 for step 5. 1. Locate the microfiche number, frame number, and nomenclature of a requested item by using the AMDF, the national stock number (NSN), and the microfiche viewer. NOTE: When looking up an NSN on the microfiche viewer, you will need the portion of the NSN called the national item identification number (NIIN). The NIIN is the NSN without the Federal Stock Class. In other words, it is the last nine numbers of the NSN. The NIIN is preceded by the country code (two digit number). Beginning with the country code, match this number up with the numbers located at the top of each AMDF slide. The number that comes the closest, without going over, is the slide that will contain the information you require. 2. Use the NSN, monthly AMDF, a microfiche viewer, and USACDA Pam 18-1 to locate an NSN and obtain information about the NSN. P F P F Results
3-1
STP 8-91A15-SM-TG
Performance Measures a. Some of the most common items that are referenced within the AMDF are unit of issue (UI), price, supply class, and the nomenclature of a particular item. b. When received (monthly), the AMDF should be compared with the unit property books to ensure that accurate information is listed on the property record. c. SB 700-20 also contains information about Army adopted equipment. NOTE: Items in Chapter 2 are listed by line item number (LIN) grouping like items together. SB 700-20 is broken into several chapters, making it necessary to reference the index to identify which chapter the information is located in. The SB 700-20 is also used to obtain information on a piece of equipment where limited information is at hand. Appendix A identifies items by their "Army Type Designator." Example, Rifle, M16A2; the M16A2 is the Army type designator assigned to this item of equipment. Caution--many items have the same Army type designator, so additional information about the nomenclature may be necessary. Other features of SB 700-20 include NSN to LIN cross-reference, LIN deletions/revisions, and a crossreference generic nomenclature to LIN. Keep in mind, the SB 700-20 is published only semiannually. The AMDF is the most accurate form of information for items of equipment. 3. Use an identification list (IL) and item description to locate information about the item. The IL is identified by the Federal Supply Classification (FSC). The IL will give detailed information on the equipment being researched. NOTE: Procedures listed in 2 above apply to this step also. 4. Locate the NSN for a reference number and determine if enough information is available to fully identify the item. 5. Use DA Pam 25-30 and the microfiche viewer to identify blank forms and publications needed to request supplies and equipment.
