“It is with pleasure that I bring to your attention and recommend for your reading the following 45-year short history of the US Army Training and Doctrine Command . The Global War on Terrorism is now ongoing for 17 years and counting. During the last few years, TRADOC has pioneered the intellectual reform known as Multi-Domain Operations , previously called Multi-Domain Battle ; published a new edition of Field Manual 3-0 Operations; and developed the concept of Large Scale Combat Operations , which together focus the Army on reestablishing its preeminence in traditional combined arms warfare, rather than the more recent counterinsurgency operations. But TRADOC still has much to do in the years to come. The Army is about to form a new command to cover the vital tasks of futures and modernization, and some of today’s TRADOC will soon go into that organization. The rest of TRADOC will continue training and educating the force, while also formulating the doctrine by which the whole Army operates — all in pursuit of continued excellence. As always with TRADOC: Victory Starts Here!” — Stephen J. Townsend, General, US Army Commanding General, US Army TRADOC
“What follows is the fourth edition of a short history of the US Army Training and Doctrine Command . This 45-year version comes at a pivotal moment in TRADOC’s history. Since its creation in 1973 in one of the most historically significant organizational reforms in US Army history, TRADOC has been the service’s primary provider of concepts, doctrine, training, education, and future forecasts. As this study goes to press, most of the concepts and future forecasts portions of TRADOC, along with similar elements of other Army commands, are being formed into a new command, but TRADOC will continue to provide the vital services of training, education, and doctrine formulation to both the Army and the nation.” — J. Britt McCarley, Ph.D., Director, TRADOC Military History and Heritage Program Fort Eustis, Virginia.
