You have a point. in fact I have several purple trades in my org about to deploy and I am very pleased with their adaption of tactics, trg and procedures gained by pre deployment trg since Apr 07. Purple trades are vital to the mission. The issue with ETHAR is that it is technically profound...

MJP is correct in his explanation of ETHAR. I'm ole school and still prefer Adv MAT Trg. Any Cbt Arms soldier in my opinion that has returned from A-Stan is qualified to present this valuable brief. Reading a lesson plan does not cut it for our current involvement in Kandahar province.

Ethar Trg is a new buzz word for enhanced MAT trg (mine awareness trg) that all soldiers take prior to any deployment. Usually taught by a Cbt Engr NCO. Enemy techniques, hazards, awareness or something like that. We (my unit about to deploy to A-Stan) took this trg back in july.
