Question 24

OPERATING FORCES

Answer 24

A-11. Operating forces consist of units organized, trained, and equipped to deploy and fight. They include about two-thirds of the Regular Army, and three-fourths of the Army’s total force. The Secretary of Defense assigns these units to the various combatant commanders. Operating forces are modular. They consist of interchangeable units grouped under various headquarters. When a combatant commander specifies the capabilities needed, the Army provides tailored force packages to provide those capabilities. In addition to general purpose forces, the Army also provides the largest element of the joint special operations forces. Army special operations forces include several special forces groups, the Ranger Regiment, civil affairs units, military information support units, and special operations aviation.

Question 25

THE GENERATING FORCE

Answer 25

A-12. The generating force mans, trains, equips, deploys, and ensures the readiness of all Army forces. The generating force consists of Army organizations whose primary mission is to generate and sustain the operating forces of the Army. It consists of those organizations identified in Army Regulation 10-87 not assigned to a combatant commander under the “Forces for Unified Commands Memorandum.” Therefore the generating force remains under the command of the Department of the Army. The training base provides military skills and a professional education to every Soldier—as well as to members of the other Services and multinational partners. The generating force is also the Army’s principal interface with the commercial sector. Our Nation’s industrial base provides equipment and sustainment for the Army, which is managed by the various headquarters of the generating force. Army installations are power projection platforms required to train forces and serve as departure points. Once operating forces deploy, the generating force provides the sustainment that Soldiers need for their missions, as well as specified support provided by the Army to the other Services. The generating force focuses on departmental (Title 10, USC) tasks including— 

Recruiting. 

Maintaining.

 Organizing.  Servicing.  Supplying.  Training.  Mobilizing.  Demobilizing.  Administering (including the morale and welfare of personnel).  Constructing, outfitting, and repairing military equipment.  Equipping (including research and development).  Constructing, maintaining, and repairing buildings, structures, and utilities as well as acquiring real property.

Question 26

ESPRIT DE CORPS

Answer 26

Fighting and winning requires professionals imbued with respect for our history and tradition and committed to the highest standards of individual and collective excellence. This respect and commitment is what we mean by esprit de corps. Professionals foster and sustain esprit de corps throughout the Army profession. Professionals exude purpose, demonstrate strong bonds of loyalty and pride, and place the mission above their own welfare. This makes us an Army family, one that takes care of its own and never leaves a fellow comrade or their family behind.
