"A Rifle Marksmanship Diagnostic and Training Guide was developed to assist Army drill sergeants diagnose and train Soldiers in the Initial Entry Training (IET) environment. The guide was based on subject matter expert input from the Infantry One Station Unit Training (OSUT) Brigade and the U.S. Army Marksmanship Unit (USAMU). These experts were interviewed to obtain effective training and diagnostic techniques and lessons learned through years of training IET Soldiers. The guide integrates this information, sequences it according to the marksmanship program, and thoroughly illustrates the major training principles and lessons learned. All information supplements and complements the Army marksmanship field manual. The guide is an Appendix to the report."--DTIC.

Drill sergeants are the primary trainers of rifle marksmanship in Initial Entry Training (IET). They are responsible for teaching basic and advanced rifle marksmanship (BRM and ARM) to all enlisted Soldiers using a crawl-walk-run training strategy. The current BRM training strategy encompasses instruction on the fundamentals of marksmanship, grouping and zeroing an M16-/M4-series rifle, and transitional firing that culminates with a qualification event. The ARM training strategy focuses on engaging targets from advanced firing positions in increasingly difficult scenarios and conditions.From 2006 to 2010 the Initial Entry Training (IET) rifle marksmanship program went through numerous changes designed to better prepare the IET Soldier for deployment to Afghanistan or Iraq. These changes redefined parts of the Army's marksmanship doctrine and required drill sergeants to relearn techniques and procedures required to implement the new training strategies. It was determined there was a need to generate a rifle marksmanship diagnostic and training guide that consolidated the tacit knowledge regarding the techniques that experienced drill sergeants and other expert marksmanship trainers had found to be effective with IET Soldiers. These techniques would provide valuable training supplements to the marksmanship field manual.

The 2003 Printing This section details the effective and proven method of training the soldier in preliminary rifle marksmanship. The following marksmanship training guide contains the current tasks that are trained in basic rifle marksmanship programs, during basic combat training at Army training centers (ATCs), and during infantry one-station unit training (OSUT). It provides a basis for structuring unit sustainment programs. The unit normally performs a diagnostic test of the tasks and only conducts training on specific periods for soldiers who must improve their basic firing skills. Training is usually conducted in a shorter time frame than at IET.

"This research compared the relative impact of two approaches for training Basic Rifle Marksmanship (BRM). One hundred and eighty four One-Station Unit Training (OSUT) infantry trainees (i.e., the experimental group) trained under a U.S. Army Reserve (USAR)-developed, device-based (i.e., the Beamhit Laser Marksmanship Training System LMTS) approach, and 202 infantry trainees (i.e., the control group) trained under the standard U.S. Army Infantry School BRM program of instruction. Results revealed that the experimental group outperformed the control group on shot grouping, weapon zeroing, and known-distance firing. No between-group differences were found, however, for record fire qualification scores or for performance during pop-up target engagement practice periods leading up to qualification. The implications of these findings for initial marksmanship training are discussed along with plans for follow-up USAR-sponsored research to assess (a) the impact of LMTS-based training on sustainment performance, and (b) the feasibility of using LMTS-based performance to predict live-fire qualification scores."--Stinet.
