Despite this effort, GAO found that Army units repeat many of the same mistakes during maneuvers at the combat training centers. Some of these mistakes could have serious consequences on a real battlefield. For example, when fighting broke out in the Persian Gulf, Army officials sought to resolve problems in Army training that could contribute to fratricide incidents. Most of these problems had been identified two years earlier but had yet to be corrected. The Army is not reaping all the benefits of the lessons learned at the training centers because the Training and Doctrine Command's program lacks procedures for assigning priorities to the lessons and for tracking the schools' use of them. https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/GAOREPORTS-NSIAD-93-231/html/GAOREPORTS-NSIAD-93-231.htm https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/GAOREPORTS-NSIAD-93-231/pdf/GAOREPORTS-NSIAD-93-231.pdf GAO/NSIAD-93-231 https://www.govinfo.gov/app/details/GAOREPORTS-NSIAD-93-231 Letter Report GAO/NSIAD-93-231; Army Training: Prioritizing and Following Up on Lessons Learned Should Minimize Recurring Weaknesses; Military training Prioritizing Army personnel Operations analysis Military facilities Combat readiness Army bases Defense capabilities Information dissemination operations Army Training and Doctrine Command Decision Support System Army Center for Lessons Learned System Desert Storm
