Core Infantry
First and foremost everyone is an infantryman, but beyond specialised roles there are core infantry roles common throughout all fireteams, squads and platoons.
Combat Leadership
Combat Leadership focuses on the front-line roles of fireteam and squad leading during direct combat. These leaders are responsible for guiding tactical units, making decisive decisions, and ensuring mission success in intense and challenging environments.
Field Leadership
Field Leadership encompasses the crucial roles of leading platoons and company combined arms operations. These leaders are responsible for guiding and coordinating units at both tactical and strategic levels, ensuring operational success.
