Book Description
For this report, researchers surveyed armor noncommissioned officers (NCOs) experienced as tank commanders (TCs) and driving instructors to identify preferred TC commands and driver actions. The results showed consistent preferences for specific commands to control forward movement, but less agreement for pivot and reverse turn commands. One finding suggested that pivot turn commands used with M60-series tanks may be transferred improperly to M1 tanks. Twelve commands were recommended for universal standard use in driver training, and 15 other commands were considered suitable for optional use in more advanced unit training and in standard operating procedures. Most NCOs favored using some standard tank driving commands, agreeing that teamwork between the driver and TC will be increased, thereby reducing driver errors. A majority of the NCOs also agreed that driver training will take more time but that training will be easier to conduct. About 20% of the NCOs were not in favor of adopting standard commands. Keywords: Armor training, Tank crews.

Pages : 108
Book Description
Research investigated the extent to which Armor company commanders' use of their tanks as command vehicles during field training exercises is inconsistent with the doctrinal statement of the US Army Armor School. Questionnaire responses of Armor and Armored Cavalry officers identified several factors contributing to command vehicle choice and indicated reactions to proposed product improvements to aid command, control, and communication (C3) functions in a tank Armor officers reported little use of the M60 tank as a command vehicle during field training exercises. Responses revealed apparent misunderstanding of doctrine related to command vehicle choice, and demonstrated that Armor officers acknowledge the necessity of training C3 functions in tanks. Officers surveyed responded favorabily to suggested product improvements intended to facilitate C3 functions in the areas of communications, navigation, and workspace human factors.
