Brigade gains new missions
All-terrain vehicles and assault boats coming for domestic operations; formed troops and platoons will head overseas
The new arrangements are being driven by the Army Commander and part of a national push to make the Reserve more operational. At LFCA, Brigadier-General Collin issued his orders in January. Brigade staff had plenty of input and Colonel Mann, 32 CBG’s Commander, issued his own orders on March 3. Underlying it all is a division of responsibility that’s been in place for some time.
“The lead — the main contributor — for expeditionary operations is the Regular force. They form the core and are augmented by Reservists,” BGen Collin told the National Post in March. “What we have now said is that for domestic operations, the core will actually be provided by the Reserve force, augmented by the Regular force. The Reserves will take a dominant role in domestic operations in the future, once they are properly equipped and trained to do so.”
