H2F is a capabilities-based, task and environment focused, Human Performance Optimization (HPO) program. HQDA EXORD 149-19 directs the Total Army to implement the H2F System. For the Active Component (AC), H2F provides Soldiers direct access to specialized medical and mental health care providers, athletic trainers, and strength coaches at the brigade level. The ARNG model will not mirror the AC model, while still accomplishing the desired end state of improving physical fitness, injury avoidance and recovery, nutritional health, and mental/spiritual resilience.

The ARNG achieves H2F Systems goals of improving Soldier readiness and lethality, optimizing physical/non-physical performance, reducing injury rates, improving rehabilitation after injury, and increasing overall effectiveness through a Directorate enabled and State/Territory led approach which accounts for ARNG unique requirements, opportunities, constraints. The ARNG will accomplish this through a blend of material solutions, subject matter expertise, federal and state resources, and health care professionals.

Members of the 40th and 550th Helicopter Squadrons attend Grey Wolf Type 1 training at Leonardo Helicopters Academy, Pennsylvania, Aug. 1 to Sept. 1, 2023.

The Type 1 training consists of three parts, the first of which is ground training, focusing on the different systems of the aircraft: hydraulics, electrical, engine, flight management, fuel, emergency systems, and the automatic flight-control systems. 10 days of the 32-day training are spent in the classroom where Airmen can only move on from the classroom portion after passing a 100-question cumulative exam. The third portion of the Type 1 training is a full-motion AW-139 simulator, where aircrew put their knowledge of all the aircraft systems to the test. They practice using the flight management system, auto pilot, flight director, radios, and general cockpit controls. (U.S. Air Force video by Senior Airman Breanna Christopher Volkmar)
