• Out-of-theater assignments not related to AOC
DISCUSSION
• Reassess value of program considering breadth of
Afghan experience within current officer corps
• Establish an AFPAK proponent
• Establish marketing strategy to eliminate negative
stigma of program
• Reengineer program to 2-3 year max with
broadening assignments as CPT & MAJ within
current timeline
• Consider advanced degree and JCS/ARSTAFF
assignment following theater tour
• Consider VTIP opportunity into FAO program

Command Selection List (CSL) Audit Update
9
FY 15 ACC CSL Audit
CSL Audit Purpose: validate billets on CSL in light of evolving
missions and responsibilities; Improve subcategory alignment;
Shape CSL to meet CSA’s intent
CSL Purpose: Ensure our best qualified officers fill our
most important billets
End State: Shape officers to become postured as future
strategic leaders of the Army
FOCUS AREAS
• Validate LTC/COL command and key billets meet CSL definitions, meet scope of
responsibility requirements, and are consistent between echelons
• Assess how the total number of LTC/COL CSL positions has changed over time,
and why
• Analyze the year-to-year imbalance in CSL opportunities, and examine COAs to
improve balance
• Statistically validate the importance of LTC CSL positions based on FY09-FY13
SSC, COL Promotion, and COL CSL Board outcomes
• Evaluate the feasibility and potential impact of reducing 36 month commands to 24
months to include potentially removing the 2+1 option for IMCOM
10
Focus Area Findings (1 of 2)
Focus Area 1: Validate LTC/COL command and key billets meet CSL definitions,
meet scope of responsibility requirements, and are consistent between echelons

80% of evaluated billets meet all CSL definitions and criteria for their respective category
•
Principle empirical friction point is “scope of responsibility,” based on authorization documents
•
Primarily in the Strategic Support Command Category
•
Small-sized units with large fiscal, materiel, facilities, and personnel responsibilities (e.g.
Depots/Arsenals/Port Battalions)

Basic Branch key billets are largely consistent at Division and Corps Level

Distribution of Functional Area key billets is in accordance with Proponent priorities
Focus Area 2: Assess how the total number of LTC/COL CSL positions has
changed over time, and why

A combination of force structure impacts (+/-) and key billet and functional areas add have
resulted in an overall 9% increase in CSL billets from FY03-FY14

Functional Areas as CSL
11
Focus Area Findings (2 of 2)
Focus Area 3: Analyze the year-to-year imbalance in CSL opportunities, and
examine COAs to improve balance

Constant factors: unit activations/inactivation's; patch chart; reliefs and individual extensions or
curtailments
•
Overall balance =47% in FY15; 53% in FY16
•
Operational Force = 47% in FY15; 53% in FY16 → 49% in FY17; 51% in FY18
•
Generating Force = 50% in 15; 50% in 16
•
Wholesale BCT/ Battalion changes in the same FY generates significant imbalance within
Divisions
Focus Area 4: Validate the importance of LTC CSL positions based on FY09-FY13
SSC, COL Promotion, and COL CSL board outcomes

CSL: ~13% LTCs selected for CSL; of those, ~72% select to COL, 73% to SSC, 36% to COL CSL
•

Direct correlation exists between LTC CSL and promotion to COL, SSC, COL CSL
Non-CSL: ~10% selected for COL; <1% for COL CSL
Focus Area 5: Evaluate the feasibility and potential impact of reducing 36 month
commands to 24 months to include potentially removing the 2+1 option for IMCOM
•
•
Complete: Depot & Arsenal commands 36 to 24 months (effective FY15); IMCOM 2+1
(terminated for FY15)
Pending: EN USACE (O6) districts 3 year command tours
12
Additional Focus Area Findings
 Nest board guidance with the Army Leader Development Strategy
to recognize performance in CSL position in both operating and
generating force
 Reassess coding of select command to correct imbalance in
command opportunities
• Redesignate all hard-coded Installation Commands to Branch Immaterial
• Redesignate 18 Combat Arms Immaterial Installation Commands to Branch
Immaterial
• Redesignate 15 Infantry Training Commands to Combat Arms Immaterial (02A)
– Initial Entry Training Battalions and Brigades outside Fort Benning
• Further assess Special Forces (SF) Opportunities – preponderance serving in
non-SF commands

Analysis
Less opportunities
 One select from 1CD in FY15 BCT; 3 BZ selects in FY14
 Zero selects from 82nd in FY15; 5 BZ selects in FY14 - officer pool for FY15
reduced
 Less BCT opportunities in FY15 is a factor
 Examined all COL promotion data from like divisions, no pooling identified:
• SR sampling from 2010-2012, home station only
• Senior rater population generally consistent; variables such as TRA, SMC roles may
have imposed variances

Professors of Military Science (PMS) as CSL
CSA: “Should LTC PMS be CSL? Consider options, we are not getting the
quality that we need”
G1 Additional Guidance: “Relook the process to identify a hybrid approach
so that certain PMS billets are a CSL selection. Identify premier schools for
CSL selection (approximately 25); possible 24-month deferment of CSL if
selected for PMS. Relook the timing which may be resolved with an earlier
announcement.
 PMSs selected through Centralized Selection Board; officers opt-in
 HRC does not recommend PMS as CSL:
• Current leader development model disadvantages PMS officers (2 yr)
• Adding to CSL potentially weakens the overall talent pool of operational force
• Forces a career path choice
• Sets a course for generating force at COL level
• Potential promotion risk

Need the opportunity to do both – PMS and CSL
16
PMS CSL Alternatives
USACC’s primary concern is turbulence, not quality
 Operationally defer CSL selects; two year minimum tour; all
eligible to compete
 Re-sequence PMS board after CSL announcement; only CSL
alternates and non-selects compete; two year minimum tour;
alternate activations remain a possibility
 Former CSL officers as PMSs for select universities;
Nomination process (Shotgun) shapes selection criteria
 Sustain current PMS/CSL board selection processes and
eligibility criteria
17
FY15 Declinations – Early Read

 FY14 declinations represents the entire FY; FY15 data is as of 25 Jun 14
 Declinations trending higher in FY15, yet within statistical norm for last 5
FYs - too early to see clear patterns
 PMS declination rate already double of entire FY14 – something to watch
18
Discussion
 Countering the effect of the 90s drawdown (avoid
principal select backlog)
•
Staying in close synch with the Army G3 (did not happen in the 90’s)
•
To some extent, under-selecting principals (did not happen in the
90’s)
 CSA AMEDD/AAC slate approval; working authorities
19
CSM CSL Branch Consolidation Update
Effective Changes:
 CSM CSL Branch merged with Command Management Branch
 Board process and slating for battalion and brigade level CSMs to mirror
officers
 Changes effective fall 14 boards (FY16 CSL):

Way Ahead:
 Continued synchronization effort to align command sub-categories with
officer CSL
 Adjust policies and procedures where needed
 Assess need to realign management of BDE CSMs to SMA SMMO
20
Branch Monitoring Update
21
Branch Monitoring Introduction
Task:
CSA Guidance to monitor minorities by branch
from the beginning of their career as an officer.
Methodology:
In order to determine which decision points
along a career timeline should inform senior
leaders’ decision making process, we explored
two areas:
1. Accessions into ACC and Combat Arms
2. Branch Transfers out of the Combat Arms
Recommendation:
Equitable distribution of Combat Arms
allocations for all sources of commission.
22
Branch Monitoring Introduction
Minorities in the Combat Arms
 The following analysis highlights trends that we consistently see in recent year
groups for Caucasian and African American (AA) populations. Key findings:
• Point of Accession (Lower AA accessions into Combat Arms – 6% of the Combat Arms
population made up of AA officers vs 12% of the overall AA ACC population)
• Combat Arms Retention (At 20 years of service, 38% of Caucasian and 45% of AA
officers that began their careers in Combat Arms transferred to other branches)
• Competitiveness (Rates for Promotion & CSL at least 5% lower than Caucasian rates)
 The use of historical data allows us to pose the questions that will inform the
decisions for the Army’s upcoming graduating classes from each source of
commission:
• What would we have done differently to change the composition of the more senior
year groups?
• How do we increase the population of minority officers in the combat arms?
• How do we mentor and influence minority officers in their initial tours to remain within
the combat arms?
23

HRC Cyber Branch Developing Topics
Dual Branching
• Successful example in Aviation/MI (15C35) but…
• Cyber/MI or Cyber/Signal could work as skill sets are related. Cyber/Branch
Immaterial?
• Proponent concerns with challenge in maintaining competency in both branches
HRC Position: Do not dual branch. Early establishment of Cyber Branch and establishment of
Cyber Mission Force Service Skill Identifier (E4) provide the tools needed to manage Cyber
talent.
Establishing CSL Opportunities in Cyber
Recommend against this initially:
• Very limited Cyber talent pool and insufficient force structure
• Dependant upon centralized board decisions
• Initially, CSL or lack thereof will not be the discriminator it is in other branches
HRC Position:
• Hand select commanders of Cyber formations for now…
• Define CSL positions once talent pool and force structure sufficiently mature
• Pursue CSL credit for previously selected commanders

Korea Rotation Business Rules and
Manning Timeline
29
Korea Rotation Personnel Rules (1 of 2)
 Rotational Unit Manning Levels
• Manned at NLT P1 from D-180 (Dec 14) through R+90 (Jun 16) to allow for non-deployable
and unprogrammed losses
• Initial HRC resourcing NLT D-180 and installation cross leveling enables the Senior
Commander (SC) to achieve and maintain P1; build beginning Sep 14
• SC responsible for non-deployable Soldier disposition and maintaining P1 throughout
deployment
 Rotational Unit Stabilization
• Stabilization begins at D-180 and ends at R+90 (Dec 14 to Jun 16)
• Soldiers must meet Service Remaining Requirement (SRR) to remain assigned to the
rotational unit through the stabilization period
• Soldiers who do not meet the SRR will be reassigned / cross-leveled prior to stabilization
period
• Soldiers on assignment to essential requirements will be replaced and depart the unit prior
to stabilization
• Special category assignments (sexual assault victims, threat to life, compassionate , etc.)
will continue on a case-by-case basis
UNCLASSIFIED / FOUO
30
Korea Rotation Personnel Rules (2 of 2)
 Rotational Unit Command Tours
• No CSL leadership changes during the stabilization period
• Brigade CSM may compete for nominative positions but will not be available until end
of rotation
• Unit has authority to change KD positions / company leadership during the stabilization
period
 Rotational Unit Retention
• D-365 (Jul 14): Soldiers who do not meet SRR (~2000) identified and allowed to
reenlist / extend
• D-330 (Aug 14): Soldiers with ETS prior to end of stabilization period reassigned /
cross leveled
• Retirement requests during stabilization period may be approved with retirement date
NET R+90
 Inactivating Units on the Korea Peninsula (1st Rotation Only)
• Standard rules for Inactivating Units apply with caveats:
– 341 Soldiers in 1/2 ID may be extended up to 180 days with approval from HQDA DCS, G-1
– Soldiers not required for readiness in other Korea units will be curtailed up to 90 days
– 1/2 ID will remain at P1 until May 2015

Impacts of Stabilization
 Stabilizing Korea Rotational Units for 18 months at P1 requires the
movement of 2,072 additional Soldiers to 2/1 CD
• Increases turbulence in other 1CD brigades and Fort Hood as units cross level
• Stabilizing one brigade mission set (Korea Rotation) is sustainable based on current projections
• Stabilizing additional brigades under the same construct is not sustainable without negatively
impacting the remainder of the operating force or depleting the generating force
• On average it requires a minimum of an additional 720 personnel (16.6% of a BCT) to stabilize a unit
for 12 months
 Stabilization was resourced from inactivating units, diverted AIT students,
and from cross leveling on Fort Hood
 Majority of the replacement personnel are skill level 10 Operations

Military / Civilian Education
 To develop the Soldier of 2014 into an agile and adaptive 1SG/CSM of 2035, leader development
must allow NCOs to build experience in multiple environments versus single tracking in one
formation with little to no broadening (CMF11, 12, 13 and 19)
 Promotion boards must recognize and reward this experience and diversity

Overall FA48 Operational Strength is at 83.2%
14 FAOs Selected for OSB
(5) Training Pipeline
•
The hardest hit AOC is 48G (Middle East) – 9.1%
selection rate (18.2% for YG01)
•
Minor Gaps (no operational impact/Officers in pipeline
to backfill)
•
Biggest GAP Concern: Army Attaché in Yemen;
backfill slated for Jan 15. Gap will depend on when
OSB Officer wants to depart
•
48Gs will be difficult to replace due to long training
timeline and lack of non-FAO Arabic speakers in Army;
FAO may have long term difficulty filling 48G billets

ESERB / AFCS Requirements
 The SecArmy has reduced the AFCS Requirement from 10 years to 8 years
– the maximum extent IAW USC 10
 101 CPTs selected for ESERB will not have obtained a minimum amount of
commissioned service (8 years) to retire as an officer
 150 MAJs were selected for ESERB; all have obtained the minimum
required 8 years AFCS
 Sec Army may defer for not more than 90 days the retirement of an officer
otherwise approved for early retirement in order to prevent a personal
hardship to the officer or for other humanitarian reasons. Any such deferral
shall be made on a case-by-case basis considering the circumstances of
the case of the particular officer concerned. The authority of the Secretary to
grant such a deferral may not be delegated.
 22 CPTs can request the SecArmy defer the retirement date from 1 Apr 15
to 30 June IOT gain 8 years AFCS and retire as an officer
40
How is retirement pay calculated
 Commissioned officers with less than 8 years commissioned service who
retire as enlisted members with more than 20 years but less than 30 years
can’t use any of their officer basic pay in the computation of the average of
their highest 36 months of basic pay.
 How calculated: DFAS will use the highest enlisted grade held and that
basic pay corresponding to the soldier’s years of service for the 36 months
before retirement.
 For example, a CPT with 7 years of commissioned service retires as an E-7
on 1 April 15 with 20 years of active duty. The highest 36 months of basic
pay would be based on one month as an E-7 with over 20 years (1-30 May
15), 24 months as an E-7 with over 18 years (1 Apr 13 through 1 May 15),
and 11 months as an E-7 with over 16 years (1 Apr 12 through 31 Mar 13).
 Under the provisions of Title 10, United States Code section 3964 (10 USC
§3964), if you are an enlisted (E-1 through E-9) or warrant officer (W-1
through W-5) retiree with less than thirty years of active service who
previously held a higher grade, you can apply for advancement to that
higher grade on the retired list after obtaining 30 years of combined active
and retired time. Retirement Pay will be adjusted but no back pay issued.

Definitions of Command Categories
 Installation Command: Supports tenant units or activities in a designated geographic area by
organizing, directing, coordinating, and controlling installation support and service activities.
Located in TDA organizations, both CONUS and OCONUS; dedicated to supporting and protecting
Army Soldiers, civilians, and their families; accountable for critical mission areas such as
mobilization, public works, real property management, and local civil authorities/host nation
rapport.*
 Operations Command: BN and BDE sized units, expeditionary in nature and
deployable worldwide with approved TO&E, joint organization, and special mission units (SMUs).
Provides the fighting power to combatant or joint task force commanders with a primary mission of
deploying to a theater of combat operations.*
 Recruiting and Training Command: Typically fixed-site, non-deployable, and in TDA
organizations. Focuses on generating Soldiers into conventional and SMUs of the US Army and
sister services. Supports the training of units from the Army and sister services. No individual
weapons qualifications requirements exist for cadre and non-training Soldiers.*
 Strategic Support (SS) Command Category: BN and BDE sized units (mainly approved TDA
units) focused on providing support (e.g., analysis, intelligence, etc.) to a theater. Conducts actions
in a CONUS or OCONUS garrison environment supporting the war fighter or trainer, primarily in a
fixed-site. Though the command is non-deployable, it may have subordinate unit slices that deploy
to a theater of combat operations.*
 Key Billet: A duty assignment at the lieutenant colonel or colonel rank requiring specific, highly
developed skills and experience that is deemed so critical to a unit’s mission that an officer is
selected for assignment by Headquarters Department of the Army. Key billet officers exercise
judgment and recommend actions to the commander. They principally manage resources and Slide 10
oversee processes that operate in a leadership environment. ** (Sources: *Army G-1, ** DA PAM 600-3)

LTC/COL CSL Positions Changes
Assess how the total number of LTC/COL CSL positions has changed
over time, and why
2 Primary driving forces:
Force Structure
 Increase in number of BCTs and
changes to structure
 2 year interval with CSL MITT
 Overall 9% increase in CSL Billets
 12% increase in LTC CSL (KD adds)
Key Billets
 Separate battalions inactivated in
2005.
 General Staff Key Billets (G1, G2,
G6, G8) introduced to CSL to mitigate
the loss of basic branch commands.
 Key Billets for select Functional

Accessions Increase for increase of 1 @ 30 Years
Current Accessions
Drawdown Reduced Accessions
• With reductions in Accessions due to drawdown, the AA population has potential to decrease faster than
other REDCATs due to historical OML standing.
• USMA traditionally has the lowest raw number of AA officers.
• OCS historically produces a high percentage of AA officers, but accessions decreased to 500 for FY14.
• ROTC is currently the largest potential source of raw numbers for AA officers and DA Branching Model will
ensure representation in Combat Arms branches.
• In order to increase AA population by 1 in a 30 year forecast, accessions must increase by 40.
