Course Scope
This course prepares Aerial Delivery and Materiel Officers with the knowledge, skills, critical thinking, and decision-making process to effectively meet the Army’s aerial delivery objectives. Facilitation of subjects includes readiness, leadership, training management, operations, communications, program management, parachute pack facility management, and aerial delivery mission support requirements. Students will examine management techniques, analyze, and manage parachute packing operations from a platoon level, and support a Brigade-sized element in a Joint Forcible Entry (JFE) mission.
Special Instructions
- All officers must be assigned to an Aerial Delivery and Materiel Officer (R9 SQI) position or equivalent.
- Waivers are required for any 92A, 88A, 91A, or 90A, not assigned to an Aerial Delivery and Materiel Officer (R9 SQI) or equivalent position; or a non-Logistic airborne qualified officer assigned to a R9 SQI or equivalent position. Waivers must be signed by the first O-5 in the chain of command with the Quartermaster Commandant’s signature block as final approving authority.
- Students must bring their DD Form 93/SGLI, Orders, Basic Airborne Course Certificate and DA FORM 1307 (Individual Jump Records). If a student has a serviceable Advanced Combat Helmet (ACH) they may bring it or one will be issued during the Airborne Operation.
- Sending organizations will ensure that students have a confirmed "R" reservation training seat in the Army Training Requirements and Resources System (ATRRS) before funding is committed for TDY travel. Those in a "W" reservation status do not have a confirmed training seat and may not commence travel unless the ATRRS "W" converts to an "R". It is imperative that training managers at all levels monitor ATRRS to ensure confirmed reservations are cancelled, if appropriate, to allow those in a wait status to acquire a confirmed training seat reservation.
