5. Incorporate, synchronize and exercise supporting role players and equipment during all appropriate phases of operations to effectively replicate a typical combat mission profile currently being executed overseas.

6. Provide scenarios and problems that are realistic and effectively exercise individual Ranger adaptability and leadership capability under extreme stress.

7. Provide all logistical and administrative coordination before, during, and after training event in order to facilitate the unit’s efforts towards training focus.

8. Pre-coordinate all training arrangements with the 1/75 ECG in order to save valuable time and resources as well as prevent any confusion.
