Students learn the basic principles of group dynamics at the level of the smallest military unit, the squad. Troop-leading procedures are introduced through case studies and roleplaying exercises. Leadership theories introduced in MILS 1102 are examined in a variety of realistic settings. The practical application of behavioral theories is explored in the context of small military organizations. The course also provides practical knowledge of the various forms of topographic representation. Students use maps in terrain association and land navigation. Knowledge of topography is complemented by an orientation on significant environmental influences of physical, social, and climatic factors. Portions of the course offer experience in land navigation and orienteering.
