Overview

Army Techniques Publication ATP 6-22.5 A Leader's Guide To Soldier Health And Fitness February 2016 Current combat operations and a U.S. Army transformation resulted in an institutional shift in how leaders view, approach, and manage the effects of Soldier health, readiness, and resilience. Commanders are responsible to establish and maintain an environment that encourages holistic efforts from leaders, Soldiers and Family to improve health, readiness, and resilience. Combat and operational stress control has always been a commander's program and to be successful, commanders must fully understand and appreciate the magnitude of a potentially traumatic event and its effect on exposed organizations and individuals. It is a harsh reality that combat and operational stress affects everyone engaged in unified land operations. No Soldier or Family member remain unchanged. It should be viewed as a continuum of possible outcomes that each person's experience with a range from positive growth behavior to negative and sometimes disruptive reactions. Effective leadership shapes the experience that they and their Soldiers go through in an effort to successfully transition units and individuals, build resilience and promote posttraumatic growth, or increased functioning and positive change after enduring trauma. Combat and operational stress control does not take away the experiences faced while engaged in military operations, it attempts to mitigate those experiences so that Soldiers and units remain combat-effective and ultimately provide the support and meaning allowing Soldiers to maintain the quality of life to which they are entitled.
