Holistic Health & Fitness

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.

The Making of a Drill Sergeant: Episode 2, Part 8
98th Training Division -Initial Entry Training
Oct. 6, 2019 | 2:25
It's time for the next video in the series, The Making of a Drill Sergeant, where we follow U.S. Army Reserve noncommissioned officer through the process of going to The U.S. Army Drill Sergeant Academy at Fort Jackson, South Carolina.

In Episode 2, Part 8, our drill sergeant candidate, Sgt. Alycia Perkins from Columbia, South Carolina, explains the differences she sees between Active Duty and Reserve drill sergeants.

The first full story on this 2nd Brigade, 98th Training Division Soldier can be found on DVIDS (https://www.dvidshub.net/news/338816/making-drill-sergeant-meet-sgt-alycia-perkins), but the video clip series will have some interesting little tidbits that would not all fit in the articles. So make sure you watch to learn more about this Soldier and her journey on becoming a U.S. Army Reserve drill sergeant. And stay tuned for the next article in the Fall Griffon (and DVIDS) that will describe her experiences at the Academy.

If you want to become an Army Reserve drill sergeant yourself, make sure you check out https://www.the98thdrillsergeant.com/ for the qualifications and details on submitting an application.

And for our current 98th Training Division drill sergeants, keep up the great work. We could not be more proud of you. And if you have stories to tell from the trail, make sure you contact the division public affairs officer, Maj. Michelle Lunato. You can send direct messages via Facebook, Instagram and Twitter. You can also send an email via 98thtrainingdivisionpao@gmail.com.

The ARNG will approach H2F as a three phased operation, including defining requirements, experimentation, and implementation. The ARNG H2F implementation strategy is not a universal “one size fits all” approach, States and Territories are afforded the flexibility to experiment through the planning process. FY21 is a planning year for States/Territories to establish those requirements; ARNG requirements will be determined through collaborative, scientific, evidence based research and experimentation. States/Territories conduct market research, small scale pilots, and analysis IOT determine their specific requirements for H2F implementation. Concurrently, ARNG G3 Training Division (TR) will institute a multi-functional working group of industry experts, collegiate human performance centers, and Army professionals to enable collaboration and requirements development. This targeted and individualized approach ensures the collective ARNG requirement possesses relevance, scalability, ease of implementation, effectiveness, and efficiency across the force. The ARNG will report the requirement findings to the Chief of Staff of the Army (CSA) NLT 30 SEP 2021.
