What duty involves developing individual training programs to support the mission?

• A. Replacing the chain of command in training decisions
• B. Supervising only physical fitness
• C. Teaching the mission of the unit and developing individual training programs to support the mission
• D. Completing payroll

Answer: (C)

The main idea here is that leadership responsibility includes turning the unit’s mission into concrete training plans for each Soldier. Teaching the unit’s mission ensures everyone understands the purpose and outcomes, while developing individual training programs aligns each Soldier’s skills, tasks, and drills with what the mission requires. This combination directly supports readiness by making sure people know why they train and have a clear path to acquire the necessary capabilities.

Choosing anything that focuses only on payroll, or only on physical fitness, or that claims to replace the chain of command in training decisions, misses the element of integrating mission understanding with tailored training. Those do not capture the responsibility to both convey the mission and systematically build each Soldier’s training to support it.
