Victory Starts Here is the history of the US Army Training and
Doctrine Command's (TRADOC's) 35 years as the architect of the
Army's future. During the first years of the 21st century,
"Transformation" became a new buzzword for the Army changing from
the Cold War era to a new conti-nental United States (CONUS) based
rapidly deployable Army. TRADOC, however, has been transforming the
Army and itself since its establishment in July 1973. Created to
solve the cumbersome command and control prob-lems of the
Continental Army Command (CONARC), TRADOC's mis-sion charter was to
oversee Army schools, training, doctrine, and combat developments.
Through time those missions evolved and TRADOC also became
responsible for preparing the Army for war and being the Army's
"architect of the future." TRADOC's first commander, General
William E. DePuy, understood that the Army required sound training,
coherent orga-nization, modern weapons systems, and relevant
doctrine. His successors built on that foundation and addressed the
need for future planning. This brief history provides an overview
of the first 35 years of TRADOC's service to the Army and to the
nation. Combat Studies Institute.
