Thinking Inside The Box EP05: Sharing Lessons Learned
Fort Irwin Operations Group
Aug. 1, 2023 | 21:22
“Thinking Inside the Box” brings you interviews with the United States Army’s experts in combined arms maneuver, the Observer Coach Trainers (OC/Ts) of Operations Group, at the National Training Center (NTC), Fort Irwin, California.

In this Episode, we talk about the Center for Army Lessons Learned (CALL). CALL’s mission is to lead the Army Lessons Learned Program and deliver timely and relevant information to resolve gaps, enhance readiness, and inform modernization. CALL is essential to the Army as an institution. They focus on adaptive learning, based on lessons and best practices, and provide timely and relevant knowledge to the warfighter.

To get more insights on the topic we interviewed Mr. Kevin Kreie, Operations Group, NTC Senior Analyst for CALL. Learn how CALL, at The National Training Center collects observations from the Observer, Coach / Trainers, analyzes that data and then produces reports, articles, handbooks, and other media that help units learn from each other as they prepare to go to a Combat Training Center. Kevin shares some of the best NTC publications and where to find this information.
