FORT HOOD, Texas-- Soldiers assigned to the Kansas Army National Guard's 2-137th Combined Arms Battalion conduct defensive lane training during the MIBT 16-01, a First Army sponsored Multi-Echelon Integrated Brigade Training exercise held here, June 12. The MIBT is a multicomponent, multi-echelon training event that sustains readiness of reserve- and active-component forces in train/ready year three and available years in accordance with approved training models. The MIBT is conducted for Army National Guard brigade combat teams that did not participate in a Maneuver Combat Training Center rotation in T/R3, ARNG division headquarters in T/R2 or available year and Army Reserve enabler units in TR3. The MIBT closes the T/R3 training gap for ARNG BCTs by providing a venue to sustain T/R2 readiness levels. First Army, as FORSCOM’s designated coordinating authority for Army Total Force Policy implementation, developed and sponsored the MIBT to support ATFP by integrating active- and reserve-component forces in a collective training event.
