The necessity of protection
The 17th Field Artillery Brigade is an organization with unique force projection capabilities. Its High Mobility Artillery Rocket Systems (HIMARS) have an effective range of 300 kilometers and can target enemy forces with pinpoint accuracy and devastating effects.
The ability to shape deep into the enemy’s area of operation (AO) makes it a lucrative target for hostile adversaries and requires the 17th Field Artillery Brigade commander to implement both active and passive defensive measures to deny the enemy targets of opportunity. To determine what defensive measures must be enacted, the inherent vulnerabilities of 17th Field Artillery Brigade will be explored and analyzed through the lens of the protection warfighting function (WFF).1 For the purposes of this analysis, the rear area vulnerability and HIMARS signature will be used to study how 17th Field Artillery Brigade operates as America’s First Corps Force Field Artillery (FFA).2 While far from comprehensive, this analysis will highlight methods used to bridge capability gaps and help advance the protection WFF at the field artillery (FA) brigade level.

Learning To Speak Maneuver
I am not what you would consider to be a “car person” which means that I usually pay for maintenance and don’t look under the hood unless I see smoke.
