PREFACE
This publication is for skill level (SL) 3/4/5 soldiers holding Military Occupational Specialty (MOS) 79R to
include US Army Reserve (USAR) 79R personnel performing duties within the US Army Recruiting
Command (USAREC), their trainers and first-line supervisors. It contains standardized training objectives
in the form of task summaries. Leaders will use these objectives to train and evaluate soldiers on critical
tasks which support their unit mission.
Soldiers holding MOS 79R SL 3/4/5 must have access to this publication. It should be made available in
the soldier's work area, in the unit's learning center and libraries. Commanders will ensure that an
adequate supply of this manual has been ordered from US Army Publications Distribution
Center(USAPDC) under pinpoint distribution procedures. The quantity ordered should be based on the
authorized MOS strength of the units TDA, TOE, or MTOE.
Users of this publication are encouraged to recommend changes to improve it. Link all comments to the
specific page, paragraph, and line of the text in which the change is recommended. Provide reasons for
each comment to ensure understanding and complete evaluation. Send comments and
recommendations on DA Form 2028 (Recommended Changes to Publications and Blank Forms) directly

CHAPTER 1
Introduction
CHAPTER 1
OVERVIEW
1-1. GENERAL. The soldier training publication (STP) identifies the individual military
occupational specialty (MOS) and area of concentration (AOC) training requirements for
soldiers in various specialties, for example, MOSs 11BCHM, infantry skill levels 2-4. Another
source of STP task data is the General Dennis J. Reimer Training and Doctrine Digital Library at
http://www.adtdl.army.mil/atdls.htm. Commanders, trainers, and soldiers should use the STP to
plan, conduct, and evaluate individual training in units. The STP is the primary MOS/AOC
reference to support the self-development and training of every soldier in the unit. It is used with
the Soldier’s Manual of Common Tasks, Army training and evaluation programs (ARTEPs), and
FM 7-0, Training the Force, to establish effective training plans and programs that integrate
soldier, leader, and collective tasks. This chapter explains how to use the STP in establishing an
effective individual training program. It includes doctrinal principles and implications outlined
in FM 7-0. Based on these guidelines, commanders and unit trainers must tailor the information
to meet the requirements for their specific unit.
a. Operational Environment
1-1
STP 12-79R35-SM-TG
(1) Commanders and leaders at all levels must conduct training with respect
to a wide variety of operational missions across the full spectrum of operations; See below, these
operations may include combined arms, joint, multinational, and interagency considerations, and
span the entire breadth of terrain and environmental possibilities. Commanders must strive to set
the daily training conditions as closely as possible to those expected for actual operations.
(2) The operational missions of the Army include not only war, but also
military operations other than war (MOOTW). Operations may be conducted as major combat
operations, a small-scale contingency, or a peacetime military engagement. Offensive and
defensive operations normally dominate military operations in war along with some small-scale
contingencies. Stability operations and support operations dominate in MOOTW. Commanders
at all echelons may combine different types of operations simultaneously and sequentially to
accomplish missions in war and MOOTW. These missions require training since future conflict
will likely involve a mix of combat and MOOTW, often concurrently. The range of possible
missions complicates training. Army forces cannot train for every possible mission; they train
for war and prepare for specific missions as time and circumstances permit.
(4) Units train to be ready for war based on the requirements of a precise and
specific mission; in the process they develop a foundation of combat skills that can be refined
based on the requirements of the assigned mission. Upon alert, commanders assess and refine
from this foundation of skills. In the train-alert-deploy process, commanders use whatever time
the alert cycle provides to continue refinement of mission-focused training. Training continues
during time available between alert notification and deployment, between deployment and
employment, and even during employment as units adapt to the specific battlefield environment
and assimilate combat replacements.
(1) Training is a team effort and the entire Army -- Department of the Army,
major commands (MACOMs), the institutional training base, units, the combat training centers
(CTCs), each individual soldier and the civilian workforce -- has a role that contributes to force
readiness. Department of the Army and MACOMs are responsible for resourcing the Army to
train. The Institutional Army, including schools, training centers, and NCO academies, for
example, train soldiers and leaders to take their place in units in the Army by teaching the
doctrine and tactics, techniques, and procedures (TTP). Units, leaders, and individuals train to
standard on their assigned critical individual tasks. The unit trains first as an organic unit and
then as an integrated component of a team. Before the unit can be trained to function as a team,
each soldier must be trained to perform their individual supporting tasks to standard.
Operational deployments and major training opportunities, such as major training exercises,
CTCs, and ARTEPs provide rigorous, realistic, and stressful training and operational experience
1-2
STP 12-79R35-SM-TG
under actual or simulated combat and operational conditions to enhance unit readiness and
produce bold, innovative leaders. The result of this Army-wide team effort is a training and
leader development system that is unrivaled in the world. Effective training produces the force --
soldiers, leaders, and units -- that can successfully execute any assigned mission.
(2) The Army Training and Leader Development Model (Figure 1-1) centers
on developing trained and ready units led by competent and confident leaders. The model
depicts an important dynamic that creates a lifelong learning process. The three core domains
that shape the critical learning experiences throughout soldier’s and leader’s time span are the
operational, institutional, and self-development domains. Together, these domains interact using
feedback and assessment from various sources and methods to maximize warfighting readiness.
Each domain has specific, measurable actions that must occur to develop our leaders.
• The operational domain includes home station training, CTC rotations, and
joint training exercises and deployments that satisfy national objectives.
Each of these actions provides foundational experiences for soldier, leader,
and unit development.
• The institutional domain focuses on educating and training soldiers and
leaders on the key knowledge, skills and attributes required for operating in
any environment. It includes individual, unit and joint schools, and
advanced education.
• The self-development domain, both structured and informal, focuses on
taking those actions necessary to reduce or eliminate the gap between
operational and institutional experiences.
(3) Throughout this lifelong learning and experience process, there is formal
and informal assessment and feedback of performance to prepare leaders and soldiers for their
next level of responsibility. Assessment is the method used to determine the proficiency and
potential of leaders against a known standard. Feedback must be clear, formative guidance
directly related to the outcome of training events measured against standards.
OPERATIONAL

(2) Leader training is an expansion of these skills that qualifies them to lead
other soldiers. As such, doctrine and principles of training require the same level of attention of
senior commanders. Leader training occurs in the Institutional Army, the unit, the CTCs, and
through self-development. Leader training is just one portion of leader development.
(a) The unit commander is responsible for the wartime readiness of all
elements in the formation. The commander is, therefore, the primary trainer of the organization
and is responsible for ensuring that all training is conducted in accordance with the STP to the
Army standard.
(b) Commanders ensure STP standards are met during all training. If a
soldier fails to meet established standards for identified MOS tasks, the soldier must retrain until
the tasks are performed to standard. Training to standard on MOS tasks is more important than
completion of a unit training event such as an ARTEP. The objective is to focus on sustaining
MOS proficiency -- this is the critical factor commanders must adhere to when training
individual soldiers units.
1-4
STP 12-79R35-SM-TG
a. Linkage Between METL and STP. A critical aspect of the battle focus concept is
to understand the responsibility for and the linkage between the collective mission essential tasks
1-5
STP 12-79R35-SM-TG
and the individual tasks that support them. For example, the commander and the CSM/1SG must
jointly coordinate the collective mission essential tasks and supporting individual tasks on which
the unit will concentrate its efforts during a given period. This task hierarchy is provided in the
task database at the Reimer Digital Library. The CSM/1SG must select the specific individual
tasks that support each collective task to be trained. Although NCOs have the primary role in
training and sustaining individual soldier skills, officers at every echelon remain responsible for
training to established standards during both individual and collective training. Battle focus is
applied to all missions across the full spectrum of operations.
• Trainers in every unit and location define task standards the same way
• Trainers evaluate all soldiers to the same standards
(2) Figure 1-2 shows how battle-focused training relates to the training guide
and soldier's manual:

STP 12-79R35-SM-TG
1-4. TASK SUMMARY FORMAT. Task summaries outline the wartime performance
requirements of each critical task in the SM. They provide the soldier and the trainer with the
information necessary to prepare, conduct, and evaluate critical task training. As a minimum,
task summaries include information the soldier must know and the skills that he must perform to
standard for each task. The format of the task summaries included in this SM is as follows:
a. Task Number. A 10-digit number identifies each task or skill. This task number,
along with the task title, must be included in any correspondence pertaining to the task.
c. Conditions. The task conditions identify all the equipment, tools, references, job
aids, and supporting personnel that the soldier needs to use to perform the task in wartime. This
section identifies any environmental conditions that can alter task performance, such as visibility,
temperature, or wind. This section also identifies any specific cues or events that trigger task
performance, such as a chemical attack or identification of a threat vehicle.
d. Standards. The task standard describes how well and to what level the task must
be performed under wartime conditions. Standards are typically described in terms of accuracy,
completeness, and/or speed.
f. References. This section identifies references that provide more detailed and
thorough explanations of task performance requirements than those given in the task summary
description.
1-5. TRAINING EXECUTION. All good training, regardless of the specific collective,
leader, and individual tasks being executed, must comply with certain common requirements.
These include adequate preparation, effective presentation and practice, and thorough evaluation.
The execution of training includes preparation for training, conduct of training, and recovery
from training.
1-7
STP 12-79R35-SM-TG
a. Preparation for Training. Formal near-term planning for training culminates with
the publication of the unit training schedule. Informal planning, detailed coordination, and
preparation for executing the training continue until the training is performed. Commanders and
other trainers use training meetings to assign responsibility for preparation of all scheduled
training. Preparation for training includes selecting tasks to be trained, planning the conduct of
the training, training the trainers, reconnaissance of the site, issuing the training execution plan,
and conducting rehearsals and pre-execution checks. Pre-execution checks are preliminary
actions commanders and trainers use to identify responsibility for these and other training
support tasks. They are used to monitor preparation activities and to follow up to ensure planned
training is conducted to standard. Pre-execution checks are a critical portion of any training
meeting. During preparation for training, battalion and company commanders identify and
eliminate potential training distracters that develop within their own organizations. They also
stress personnel accountability to ensure maximum attendance at training.
(2) Leaders, trainers, and evaluators are identified, trained to standard, and
rehearsed prior to the conduct of the training. Leaders and trainers are coached on how to train,
given time to prepare, and rehearsed so that training will be challenging and doctrinally correct.
Commanders ensure that trainers and evaluators are not only tactically and technically competent
on their training tasks, but also understand how the training relates to the organization's METL.
Properly prepared trainers, evaluators, and leaders project confidence and enthusiasm to those
being trained. Trainer and leader training is a critical event in the preparation phase of training.
These individuals must demonstrate proficiency on the selected tasks prior to the conduct of
training.
(3) Commanders, with their subordinate leaders and trainers, conduct site
reconnaissance, identify additional training support requirements, and refine and issue the
training execution plan. The training plan should identify all those elements necessary to ensure
the conduct of training to standard. Rehearsals are essential to the execution of good training.
Realistic, standards-based, performance-oriented training requires rehearsals for trainers, support
personnel, and evaluators. Preparing for training in Reserve Component (RC) organizations can
require complex pre-execution checks. RC trainers must often conduct detailed coordination to
obtain equipment, training support system products and ammunition from distant locations. In
addition, RC pre-execution checks may be required to coordinate Active Component assistance
from the numbered CONUSA, training support divisions, and directed training affiliations.
1-8
STP 12-79R35-SM-TG
(1) In crawl-walk-run training, the tasks and the standards remain the same;
however, the conditions under which they are trained change. Commanders may change the
conditions, for example, by increasing the difficulty of the conditions under which the task is
being performed, increasing the tempo of the task training, increasing the number of tasks being
trained, or by increasing the number of personnel involved in the training. Whichever approach
is used, it is important that all leaders and soldiers involved understand in which stage they are
currently training and understand the Army standard.
(2) An AAR is immediately conducted and may result in the need for
additional training. Any task that was not conducted to standard should be retrained. Retraining
should be conducted at the earliest opportunity. Commanders should program time and other
resources for retraining as an integral part of their training plan. Training is incomplete until the
task is trained to standard. Soldiers will remember the standard enforced, not the one discussed.
1-9
STP 12-79R35-SM-TG
(1) All training must be evaluated to measure performance levels against the
established Army standard. The evaluation can be as fundamental as an informal, internal
evaluation performed by the leader conducting the training. Evaluation is conducted specifically
to enable the individual undergoing the training to know whether the training standard has been
achieved. Commanders must establish a climate that encourages candid and accurate feedback
for the purpose of developing leaders and trained soldiers.
(2) Evaluation of training is not a test; it is not used to find reasons to punish
leaders and soldiers. Evaluation tells soldiers whether or not they achieved the Army standard
and, therefore, assists them in determining the overall effectiveness of their training plans.
Evaluation produces disciplined soldiers, leaders and units. Training without evaluation is a
waste of time and resources.
b. Evaluators. Commanders must plan for formal evaluation and must ensure the
evaluators are trained. These evaluators must also be trained as facilitators to conduct AARs that
elicit maximum participation from those being trained. External evaluators will be certified in
the tasks they are evaluating and normally will not be dual slotted as a participant in the training
being executed.

STP 12-79R35-SM-TG
command attention by requiring evaluation of specific mission essential and battle tasks. They
also take advantage of evaluation information to develop appropriate lessons learned for
distribution throughout their commands.
d. After Action Review. The AAR, whether formal or informal, provides feedback
for all training. It is a structured review process that allows participating soldiers, leaders, and
units to discover for themselves what happened during the training, why it happened, and how it
can be done better. The AAR is a professional discussion that requires the active participation of
those being trained. FM 7-1 provides detailed instructions for conducting an AAR and detailed
guidance on coaching and critiquing during training.
1-7. TRAINING SUPPORT. References have been identified for each task to assist in
planning and conducting training. A consolidated list of references identified by type,
publication number, and title and a comprehensive glossary of acronyms, abbreviations, and
definitions are included in this STP.
1-8. FEEDBACK. Recommendations for improvement of this STP are requested. Feedback
will help to ensure that this STP answers the training needs of units in the field. There is a
questionnaire at the end of this STP to make it easier to send recommendations and comments.

CHAPTER 2
Training Guide
2-1. GENERAL.
a. The TG identifies the essential components of a unit training plan for individual training. Units have
different training needs and requirements based on differences in environment, location, equipment,
dispersion, and similar factors. Therefore, the TG is a guide used for conducting unit training and is not
considered to be a rigid standard.
b. The TG provides the following information necessary for planing training requirements for the MOS:
(4) Recommends how often to train soldiers on each task to sustain proficiency.
(6) Recommends a strategy for training soldiers to perform higher level tasks.
a. As described in FM 7-0, Training the Force, and FM 25-101, Battle Focused Training, the
commander must define the Mission-Essential Task List (METL) as the basis for unit training.
b. Unit leaders use the METL to identify the collective, leader, and soldier task which support
accomplishing the task in the METL.
c. Unit leaders then assess the status of the training, lay out the training objectives, and make a plan
for accomplishing needed training. After preparing the long- and short-range plans, they then conduct
and evaluate training. The unit's training preparedness is then re assessed, and the training
management cycle begins again. This process ensures that the unit has identified the following:
(1) The kind of training that is important for the wartime mission.
(3) That the training meets the established objectives and standards.
a. The two key components of enlisted STPs are the Training Guide (TG) and Soldier's Manual (SM).
They give leaders important information which helps them develop battle-focused training.
b. The TG relates soldier and leader tasks in the MOS and SL to duty positions and equipment. As
leaders go through the assessment and planning stages, they should use the TG as an important tool in
identifying WHAT needs to be trained.
2-1
STP 12-79R35-SM-TG
c. Leaders conducting and evaluating soldier and leader training should rely on the Army-wide training
objectives and standards in the SM. The SM ensures that soldiers in any unit or location have the same
definition of task performance and that trainers evaluate the soldiers to the same standard.
2-4. TRAINER'S RESPONSIBILITIES. Training soldier and leader tasks to standard and relating this
training to collective mission essential tasks are the NCO trainer's responsibilities. Trainers use the
following steps to plan and evaluate training:
a. Identify soldier and leader training requirements. Using the commander's training guidance, the
NCO determines which tasks soldiers need to train on. The unit's METL is the source for helping the
trainer define the individual training needs.
b. Plan the training. Training for specific tasks can usually be integrated or conducted concurrently
with other training or during "slack periods." The unit's ARTEP can help identify the soldier and leader
tasks that can be trained and evaluated concurrently with collective task training and evaluation.
c. Gather the training references and materials. The SM lists all references which can help the trainer
prepare for the training of that task.
d. Determine risk assessment and identify safety concerns. Trainers must analyze the risk involved in
training a specific task under the current conditions at the time of the scheduled training. They must
ensure that their training preparation takes into account those cautions, warnings, and dangers
associated with each task.
e. Train each soldier. Trainers must show each soldier how a task is done to standard, explain step-
by-step how to do the task, and give each soldier one chance to do the task step-by-step.
f. Check each soldier. Training must evaluate how well each soldier performs the tasks in this
manual. They conduct these evaluations during individual training sessions or while evaluating soldier
proficiency during the conduct of unit collective tasks. This manual provides an evaluation guide for each
task to enhance the trainer's ability to conduct year-round, hands-on evaluations of tasks critical to the
unit's mission.
g. Record the results. The leader book referred to in FM 25-101, Appendix B, is used to record task
performance. It gives the leader total flexibility on the method of recording training. The trainer may use
DA Form 5164-R (Hands-On Evaluation) as part of the leader book. This form is optional and locally
reproducible.
h. Retain and evaluate. Trainers must work with each soldier until the soldier can perform the task to
specific SM standards.
2-5 EVALUATION.
a. Evaluation guide. This manual contains an evaluation guide for each task. Trainers use the
evaluation guide year-round to determine if soldiers can perform their critical tasks to SM standards.
Each evaluation guide contains one or more performance measures. These measures identify what the
trainer needs to observe to score a soldier's performance. Each step is clearly identified by a "GO" and
"NO GO" located under the "Results" column on each evaluation guide. Some tasks involve a process
which the trainer must observe as the soldier performs the task. For other tasks, the trainer must
evaluate an "end product" that results from doing the task. The following are some general points about
using the evaluation guide to evaluate soldiers:
(1) Review the guide to become familiar with the information on which the soldier will be scored.
2-2
STP 12-79R35-SM-TG
(2) Ensure that the necessary safety equipment and clothing needed for proper performance of the
job are on hand at the training site.
(3) Prepare the test site according to the conditions section of the task summary. Some tasks
contain special evaluation preparation instructions. These instructions tell the trainer what modifications
must be made to the job conditions to evaluate the task. To ensure that conditions are the same for each
soldier, the trainer must reestablish the test site to the original requirements after evaluating each soldier.
(4) Score each soldier according to the performance measures and feedback section in the
evaluation guide.
(5) Record the date and task performance ("GO" or "NO GO") in the leader book.
a. Prepare yourself.
(1) Get training guidance from your chain of command on when to train, which soldiers to train,
availability of resources, and a training site.
(2) Get the training objective (task, conditions, and standards) from the task summary in this
manual.
(3) Ensure that you can do the task. Review the task summary and the references in the reference
section. Practice doing the task or, if necessary, have someone train you on the task.
(4) Choose a training method. Some tasks provide recommended training methods in the feedback
section of the task summary.
(5) Prepare a training outline consisting of informal notes on what you want to cover during your
training session.
(1) Obtain the required resources identified in the conditions statement for each task.
(3) Ensure that the necessary training aids and devices are on hand.
(4) Prepare the training site according to the conditions statement and evaluation preparation
section of the task summary.
(1) Tell the soldier what task to do and how well it must be done. Refer to the standard statement
and evaluation preparation section for each task.
(3) Provide any necessary training on basic skills that soldiers must have before they can be
trained on the task.
2-3
STP 12-79R35-SM-TG
(4) Pretest each soldier to determine who needs training in what areas by having the soldier
perform the task. Use DA form 5164-R and the evaluation guide in each task summary to make this
determination.
(1) Demonstrate how to do the task or the specific performance steps to those soldiers who could
not perform to SM standards.
(3) Have soldiers practice the task until they can perform it to SM standards.
(5) Provide feedback to those soldiers who fail to perform to SM standards and have them continue
to practice until they can perform to SM standards.
2-1. General. The MOS Training Plan (MTP) identifies the essential components of a unit training plan
for individual training. Units have different training needs and requirements based on differences in
environment, location, equipment, dispersion, and similar factors. Therefore, the MTP should be used as
a guide for conducting unit training and not a rigid standard. The MTP consists of two parts. Each part is
designed to assist the commander in preparing a unit training plan which satisfies integration, cross
training, training up, and sustainment training requirements for soldiers in this MOS.
Part One of the MTP shows the relationship of an MOS skill level between duty position and critical tasks.
These critical tasks are grouped by task commonality into subject areas.
Section I lists subject area numbers and titles used throughout the MTP. These subject areas are used to
define the training requirements for each duty position within an MOS.
Section II identifies the total training requirement for each duty position within an MOS and provides a
recommendation for cross training and train-up/merger training.
• Duty Position Column. This column lists the duty positions of the MOS, by skill level, which have
different training requirements.
• Subject Area Column. This column lists, by numerical key (see Section I), the subject areas a soldier
must be proficient in to perform in that duty position.
• Cross Train Column. This column lists the recommended duty position for which soldiers should be
cross trained.
• Train-up/Merger Column. This column lists the corresponding duty position for the next higher skill
level or MOSC the soldier will merge into on promotion.
Part Two lists, by general subject areas, the critical tasks to be trained in an MOS and the type of training
required (resident, integration, or sustainment).
• Subject Area Column. This column lists the subject area number and title in the same order as
Section I, Part One of the MTP.
• Task Number Column. This column lists the task numbers for all tasks included in the subject area.
2-4
STP 12-79R35-SM-TG
• Title Column. This column lists the task title for each task in the subject area.
• Training Location Column. This column identifies the training location where the task is first trained
to soldier training publications standards. If the task is first trained to standard in the unit, the word
“Unit” will be in this column. If the task is first trained to standard in the training base, it will identify, by
brevity code (ANCOC, BNCOC, etc.), the resident course where the task was taught. Figure 2-1
contains a list of training locations and their corresponding brevity codes.
• Sustainment Training Frequency Column. This column indicates the recommended frequency at
which the tasks should be trained to ensure soldiers maintain task proficiency. Figure 2-2 identifies
the frequency codes used in this column.
BA - Biannually
AN - Annually
SA - Semiannually
QT - Quarterly
MO - Monthly
BW - Biweekly
WK - Weekly
Figure 2-2. Sustainment Training Frequency Codes
• Sustainment Training Skill Level Column. This column lists the skill levels of the MOS for which
soldiers must receive sustainment training to ensure they maintain proficiency to soldier’s manual
standards.

CHAPTER 3
Skill Level 3
Subject Area 1: Recruiter
Conditions: During a station production meeting, your station commander directed you to analyze your
recruiting zone of responsibility and develop a plan to enhance or maintain Army take of DOD contracts.
You have access to:
Standards: Analyzed the recruiting zone and develop a plan, approved by the station commander, that
maximized markets with untapped potential for Army enlistments.
Performance Steps
1. Analyze the detailed station report to determine average production (over a three year period)
a. Determine average number of ARMY GSA contracts each zip code assigned to a recruiter
produced in a year
b. Determine average number of GSA contracts DOD produced in a year in each zip code
c. Determine the average share of all DOD GSA contracts the Army achieved in a three year for
each zip code
d. Repeat steps a. through c. above for volume contracts
Note the following for planning:
(1) All zip codes in the recruiter's zone that historically produce the majority of Army contracts
(GSA/VOL). Use this information to maintain your recruiting focus
(2) All zip codes in the recruiter's zone producing more contracts for the other services than
they are for the Army. Use the information to reallocate a portion of your recruiting energy
(3) Any significant differences between GRAD/SR populations, compared to production, to
determine possible markets of opportunity (Example: Zone A has a total GRAD/SR
population of 1000 and produces an average of 6.3 GSA contracts and 15 volume per
year. Zone B has a GRAD/SR population of 1150 and produces only 3.6 GSA contracts
and 7.8 volume. This may indicate that Zone B has the potential to out produce Zone A if
given increased attention)
2. Review lead source analysis data for the following:
a. Determine most productive lead source(s) that resulted in the most enlistment(s) and invested
the necessary prospecting energy to sustain or improve production
b. Determine most effective lead sources (sources with the lowest conversion rates) and invested
the necessary prospecting energy to increase productivity
c. Determine least productive/untapped lead source(s) and develop a detailed plan to increase
prospecting activities
d. Determine individual training needs based on a through c. above and develop a self-study
program to improve
3-1
STP 12-79R35-SM-TG
Performance Steps
e. Request necessary assistance and resources (TAIR, RSB assets, COI/VIP functions, HRAP,
focused prospecting blitzes, ADSW,CLT involvement etc.)
3. Analyze market share report for the following:
a. Verify the dates on the report are correct for the analysis and understand the following:
(1) Market share is based on gross contracts (DEP loses are not factored)
(2) Market share is based on calendar month versus RSM
(3) Changes to the RS structure (adding/deleting schools, zips etc.) are made automatically
when input to the system is complete
b. Determine the raw number of contracts each service has obtained and the percentage those
contracts represent of all DOD production in the following categories:
(1) GA
(2) Seniors
(3) Other
(4) Vol
(5) SA
(6) GSA
(7) Grads
(8) Females
c. Understand the following about market share:
(1) The "Other" category is controlled by DEP constraints. Since not all services can enlist
the same applicants, gauging Army penetration against other services in the "Other"
category is immeasurable
(2) Since volume encompasses all contracts, including capped categories controlled by DEP
constraints, gauging Army penetration against the "Other" category is immeasurable
(3) Since Grads include CAT IV contracts, this category can be easily inflated in the favor of
whichever service has the highest allocation and can often be misleading information
(4) Female data encompasses all female contracts, including HA, CAT IV, PS, NA, etc., and
as such is a poor indicator of performance. However, any drop in female production
should be compared with historical data to ensure that there has been no drop off in
quality contracts from the female market
(5) The only categories with a "level playing field" are GA, SA, and GSA. In order to compare
the Army's effectiveness in the market against the other services, GSA contracts must be
the primary focus of the evaluation
4. Compare previous year(s) market share report to the same like period
a. Check for any volumetric dips in production in any zip code, by category
b. Check for any significant increase in one of the other services
c. Check for any personal initiatives (such as senior blitzes) that are paying off in the zone
d. Check for penetration of the market by zip code and category
5. Compare market share report with the detailed station report
a. Determine which zip codes are producing above, below or at the same as the potential
indicated on the RMA and what must be done to sustain or improve contracts
b. Determine which zip codes, based on HSSR population, had the largest opportunity to improve
senior production and what was done to improve production
c. Determine which zip code based, on total Grad population, had the largest opportunity to
improve graduate production and what was done to improve production
d. Determine which zip codes, based on assigned college(s), had the largest opportunity to
improve graduate production and what was done to improve production
6. Review planning tools and determine daily prospecting trends
a. Review planning tool for a specified period of time (i.e. Month, Quarter, etc.)
b. Confer with station commander and determine, from the USAREC Form 533, which day
appointments were made on and identified "best days and times" to prospect.

Performance Steps
NOTE: "best day/time" should be identified for each market (i.e. HS Grads, HS Seniors, College
students, etc.)
7. Evaluate Top of the System data
a. Determine if enlistments have increased or decreased
NOTE: Use " like time periods". If you are comparing quarterly data, use the same quarter for each year
in comparison (i.e. 2QT FY00 will be compared to 2QT FY99)
b. Determine whether recruiting zone boundaries have changed between the current mission
period and the previous mission period
(1) Increases in zone sizes should correspond to equal increases in production
(2) Decreases in zone sizes may not necessarily trigger decreases in Army production. If the
other services have dominated the market, it is possible to realize increases in production
in a smaller market if the correct measures are taken to recapture Army share
c. Determine differences in enlistments this FY compared to previous years such as:
(1) Whether female production was lower compared to previous years and took the
appropriate action to increase female prospecting
(2) Whether I-III A production was lower than the market is capable of producing and modified
the pre-call plans to add emphasis to I-III A prospecting
(3) Whether Grad production was equal to or greater than previous years and took action to
correct it
(4) Conduct the same analysis for all other markets and took appropriate action
d. Review ARISS data records to determine what was "selling" in the your market:
(1) Pay particular attention to the remarks blocks if the MOS an applicant enlisted for didn't
match training desires
(2) Determine which programs (College Fund, Guaranteed Training, Cash Bonus, etc.) were
the biggest sellers
(3) Modify sales messages to include these programs
Evaluation Preparation: Use the materials listed in the CONDITIONS statement for on-the-job
performance evaluation.
Performance Measures GO NO GO
1. Analyzed the detailed station report to determine average production (over a 3 —— ——
year period)
a. Determined average number of ARMY GSA contracts each zip code
assigned to a recruiter produced in a year
b. Determined average number of GSA contracts DOD produced in a year in
each zip code
c. Determined the average share of all DOD GSA contracts the Army achieved
in a three year for each zip code
d. Repeated steps a. through c. above for Volume contracts
Note the following for planning:
(1) All zip codes in the recruiter's zone that historically produce the majority
of Army contracts (GSA/VOL). Use this information to maintain your
recruiting focus
(2) All zip codes in the recruiter's zone producing more contracts for the
other services than they are for the Army. Use the information to
reallocate a portion of your recruiting energy

STP 12-79R35-SM-TG
Performance Measures GO NO GO
(3) Any significant differences between GRAD/SR populations, compared
to production, to determine possible markets of opportunity (Example:
Zone A has a total GRAD/SR population of 1000 and produces an
average of 6.3 GSA contracts and 15 volume per year. Zone B has a
GRAD/SR population of 1150 and produces only 3.6 GSA contracts
and 7.8 volume. This may indicate that Zone B has the potential to out
produce Zone A if given increased attention)
2. Reviewed lead source analysis data for the following: —— ——
a. Determined most productive lead source(s) that resulted in the most
enlistment(s) and invested the necessary prospecting energy to sustain or
improve production
b. Determined most effective lead sources (sources with the lowest conversion
rates) and invested the necessary prospecting energy to increase
productivity.
c. Determined least productive/untapped lead source(s) and developed a
detailed plan to increase prospecting activities
d. Determined individual training needs based on a through c. above and
developed a self-study program to improve
e. Requested necessary assistance and resources (TAIR, MSB assets,
COI/VIP functions, HRAP, focused prospecting blitzes, ADSW,CLT
involvement etc.)
3. Analyzed market share report for the following: —— ——
a. Verified the dates on the report were correct for the analysis and understood:
(1) Market share is based on gross contracts (DEP loses are not factored)
(2) Market share is based on calendar month versus RSM
(3) Changes to the RS structure (adding/deleting schools, zips etc.) are
made automatically when input to the system is complete
b. Determined the raw numbers of contracts each service had obtained and the
percentage those contracts represented of all DOD production in the
following categories:
(1) GA
(2) Seniors
(3) Other
(4) Vol
(5) SA
(6) GSA
(7) Grads
(8) Females
c. Understood the following about market share:
(1) The "Other" category is controlled by DEP constraints. Since not all
services can enlist the same applicants, gauging Army penetration
against other services in the "Other" category is immeasurable
(2) Since volume encompasses all contracts, including capped categories
controlled by DEP
constraints, gauging Army penetration against the "Other" category is
immeasurable
(3) Since Grads include CAT IV contracts, this category can be easily
inflated in the favor of whichever service has the highest allocation and
can often be misleading information

(4) Female data encompasses all female contracts, including HA, CAT IV,
PS, NA, etc., and as such is a poor indicator of performance. However,
any drop in female production should be compared with historical data
to ensure that there has been no drop off in quality contracts from the
female market
(5) The only categories with a "level playing field" are GA, SA, and GSA.
In order to compare the Army's effectiveness in the market against the
other services, GSA contracts must be the primary focus of the
evaluation
4. Compared previous year(s) market share report to the same like period —— ——
a. Checked for any volumetric dips in production in any zip code, by category
b. Checked for any significant increase in one of the other services
c. Checked for any personal initiatives (such as senior blitzes) that are paying
off in the zone
d. Checked for penetration of the market by zip code and category
5. Compared market share report with the detailed station report and: —— ——
a. Determined which zip codes were producing above, below or at the same as
the potential indicated on the RMA and what must be done to sustain or
improve contracts
b. Determined which zip codes, based on HSSR population, had the largest
opportunity to improve senior production and what was done to improve

c. Determined which zip code, based on Total Grad population, had the largest
opportunity to improve graduate production and what was done to improve
production
d. Determined which zip codes, based on assigned college(s), had the largest
opportunity to improve graduate production and what was done to improve

6. Reviewed planning tools and determined daily prospecting trends —— ——
a. Reviewed planning tool for a specified period of time (i.e. Month, Quarter,
etc.)
b. Conferred with station commander and determined, from the USAREC Form
533, which day appointments were made on and identified "best days and
times" to prospect
NOTE: "best day/time" should be identified for each market (i.e. HS Grads, HS

Standards: Analyze conversion data to determine training needs and adjustments necessary to increase
production.
Performance Steps
1. Log onto the Leads and Reports System software.
2. Access the ARISS-RWS tab and then open the Reports tab.
3. Open the reports tab and select the Enlisted Conversion Data Chart tab.
4. Select the RSM for the desired analysis.
5. Analyze conversion data.
a. Divide the number of appointments conducted (AC) by the number of appointments made (AM)
to determine conversion rate (percent of AM that result in AC). Compute conversion rates for:
(1) Each month of data on hand to determine seasonal factors, i.e., fluctuation in prospecting
results apparently stemming from recurring annual or seasonal events, i.e., hunting
season, Christmas, HS graduation, crop harvesting, etc.
(2) YTD totals to establish recruiter/station YTD averages.
b. Determine if training will improve the AM-AC rate (if less than 75%).
c. Compute the conduct-to-test rate (AC-T). If less than the target of 36 percent, identify those
recruiters with AC-T rates significantly below the station average and review the circumstances
of each appointment they conducted during the preceding twelve months. Take appropriate
training and/or leadership actions to bring their rate in line with the station average. Raise the
station average by improving individual recruiter rates gradually over time.
d. Compute the test-to-test pass rate (T-TP). If less than the target of 50 percent, follow the steps
described above for improving the AC-T rate.
e. Compute the test pass-to-floor rate (TP-F). If less than the target of 83 percent, follow the steps
described above for improving the AC-T rate.
f. Compute the floor-to-contract rate (F-C). If less than the target of 80 percent, follow the steps
described above for improving the AC-T rate.
6. Determine choke points.
a. Low conversion from AM to AC usually indicates a prospecting weakness. Check blueprinting,
pre-prospecting power-up, product knowledge, appropriateness of sales message to the time
and season (prospecting message should reflect the topics that most concern the prospect),
location of initial interview, overselling, etc.
b. Low conversion from AC to test usually indicates a sales weakness. Review information
contained in the task(s) on conducting an effective multimedia sales/salesbook presentation.
c. Low conversion from test to test pass usually indicates a blueprinting or pre-qualification
inadequacy. Determine whether a developed thorough pre-call plan was developed (targeted
the prime I-IIIA market) and ensure usage screening tests prior to processing.
d. Low conversion from test pass to floor usually indicates a sales (prospect/influencer unsold) or
follow-up deficiency. Determine quality of presentations by observing other recruiters
conducting appointments in the American living room. Check frequency and method of follow-
up.

Standards: Develop a DEP/DTP program that maintains a loss rate of less than 10%.
Performance Steps
1. Evaluate current and past DEP/DTP programs.
a. Analyze loss rates for the current and past 2-years.
b. Identify separation trends (fail to grad, apathy, DAT, etc.).
c. Determine which recruiters (past or present) account for a disproportionate percentage of
losses.
d. Determine other trends, I.e., number of losses interviewed initially in the RS, number enlisted
outside their interest area for combat arms, number of fail-to-grads from a particular school,
weak follow up, etc.
e. Determine number of current DEP/DTP members that share the same risk factors, as in a, b,
and c above, and place them "amber" on the DEP log..
f. Decide if immediate changes to management practices will reduce losses.
g. Energize DEP functions.
2. Analyze DEP information from the DEP/DTP cards/contact database to further identify trends and
realize improvements.
a. Determine which mission categories historically separate at a higher rate and account for this
when planning follow up action and tutorials.
b. Weekly compare the current height/weight from the contact database to the entry weight/max
weight figures recorded. Take appropriate action should the DEP/DTP member show signs of
gaining (or losing) too much weight.
c. Judge whether date of last DEP function attendance indicates DEP/DTP apathy or
inattentiveness.
d. Decide if the lack of referrals and promotion to PV2 signals DEP/DTP apathy about the Army or
personal apathy toward a particular DEP/DTP member.
e. Compare enlistment options with remarks made on the DEP/DTP card/contact databases.
Closely monitor those DEP/DTP sold outside of their primary interest area (wanted MP's but
enlisted for cook).
f. Compare contract-to-ship dates. The larger the window, the more likely a loss will occur.
3. Energize the DEP/DTP Program.
a. Conduct dynamic DEP/DTP orientations.
(1) Plan the "who, what, when, where, and why(s)," prior to the orientation.
(2) Who will conduct the briefing, who will attend from the station besides you, and who
should attend with the DEP/DTP (person referring the DEP/DTP, parents, influencers,
and/or significant others)?
3 - 63
STP 12-79R35-SM-TG
Performance Steps
(3) What pre-orientation research and resources should you accomplish/collect (RPIs,
regulations, web site down loads, videos, etc.) and what topics must you cover (DEP/DTP
enlistment agreement, options, incentives, the Guide for New Soldiers, and/or related
Army programs)?
(4) Where will you conduct the orientation (preferably at the DEP/DTP member's home)?
(5) Provide a second, complete multimedia sales presentation during the 3-10 day orientation
window (but not necessarily during the initial briefing), which points up many of the
"hidden" benefits of Army service. As an example, for those DEP/DTP with education
DBMs, "hidden" benefits might include:
( a) Internet access at the post library.
( b) The Green to Gold ROTC Scholarship Program for active duty personnel
(http://147.248.153.211/scholarships/green/).
( c) Admission to West Point (from AD enlisted status, www.usma.edu).
( d) Dependent entitlement to use Army Education Centers.
( e) DANTES Testing and College Credit for Skills (www.voled.doded.mil).
( f) Distance Learning Courses.
( g) Service members Opportunity Colleges (1200 private/public colleges and
universities, http://www.voled.doded.mil/soc/what is.htm)
( h) Army Continuing Education System (www.perscom.army.mil/tagd/aces/aces.htm).
( i) Army/American Council on Education Registry Transcript System.
( j) (http://leav-www.army.mil/aarts/).
( k) Army Medical Department's Enlisted Commissioning Program
(www.goarmy.com/med/ancsp.htm).
( l) Tuition Assistance ($3500 annually).
Note: Re-probe each area of TEAMS and clearly tie the DEP/DTP's enlistment options to his/her stated
wants, needs, goals and desires in a manner that appeals to the emotions. Secure the DEP/DTP
member's complete agreement at this point. Watch for hesitation or signs of doubt. Prepare to answer
more direct, candid questions in the orientation than the DEP/DTP asked during the initial interview.
(6) When will you conduct the orientation? (The 3-10 day orientation window allows for
proper planning, research, and preparation)
(7) Gather and review resources and rehearse the briefing before the orientation.
b. Provide the DEP/DTP member a "mission statement" that outlines their responsibilities for
referrals, follow up, DEP function attendance, maintaining eligibility, reporting for AD, etc.
c. Provide the DEP/DTP member with a chain of command briefing that includes putting their
photo on the DEP board.
d. Brief new soldiers on the use of the DEP/DTP ID card
e. Review the RWS videos with the new soldier that corresponds to his/her options, MOS,
assignment, and basic training/IET.
f. Conclude the orientation by having the station commander jointly sign the Commitment to
Excellence Certificate (furnish original to DEP/DTP).
4. Conduct dynamic DEP/DTP follow up.
a. Begin each follow up contact by addressing personal issues in the new soldier's life, such as
school work, status of relationships, free time activities, plans for the upcoming week/weekend,
and offered support or assistance when needed.
b. Adhere to the follow up schedule contained in UR 601-95.
c. Ensure a complete sales presentation is conducted with each parent, spouse, or significant
other, covering the interest areas of the DEP/DTP as well as those of the influencer. For
instance, if the DEP/DTP member enlisted for adventure and had no interest in education and
the influencer had an interest in education, "sell" the influencer, nonetheless, on the Army's
educational benefits during and after enlistment.
d. Collect report cards at the end of each secondary school grading period.
e. Conduct weekly weigh-ins for those DEP/DTP that exceeded screening table weight (needed
body fat) at time of DEP-in.
3 - 64
STP 12-79R35-SM-TG
Performance Steps
f. Acknowledge birthdays, Christmas, graduation and other significant occasions with an
appropriate greeting card.
g. Continue to follow up with influencers after the DEP/DTP has shipped to training.
5. Conduct dynamic DEP/DTP tutorials and relationship building activities.
a. Uninterrupted tutorial time is set up exclusively for the DEP/DTP once each month.
b. Each monthly tutorial is planned and combined with instruction on pre-BT tasks (UF1137), the
DEP/DTP Correspondence Course Program, and quality relationship building.
c. Structure each tutorial to incorporate the Army Values
d. Include at least one leadership concept in each tutorial from FM 22-100.
e. Highlight Army benefits not previously covered (Space A travel, outdoor recreation services,
post-service VA benefits, etc.).
f. Educate the DEP/DTP about Army facilities/programs: Gyms, craft shops, theaters, libraries,
intramural sports, All Army Sports Teams, World Class Athlete Program, MWR services, etc.).
g. Present the DEP/DTP with a "gift" during the tutorial that piques interest and leads to further
mentoring, I.e., the origin and significance of U.S. and Branch "brass", Distinctive Unit Insignia,
Regimental Unit Insignia, Marksmanship badges, the Army Service Ribbon, Airborne "wings,"
the Ranger Tab, etc.
h. Understand new soldiers expectations from recruiter guidance in getting promoted to PV2
through the referral award system. Strive to see that each and every new soldier achieves
some type of referral award prior to IET.
i. Regularly attend/participate in school/club events that included DEP/DTP members (beyond
the graduation ceremony) and become allies with the DEP/DTP member's teachers, coaches,
friends, et al., strengthening the bond with the DEP/DTP while also expanding the circle of
influence in the community.
6. Conduct dynamic DEP/DTP functions and meetings.
a. Make DEP functions physical, military and competitive.
b. Plan functions well in advance and include topics such as land navigation, map reading,
weapons familiarization, obstacle courses (skip hazardous obstacles), leader reaction courses
(located typically at State ARNG centers), mini-APFT, push-up/pull-up contests, etc. (Complied
with restrictions in UR 601-95.)
NOTE: Ensure that all DEP/DTP soldiers sign the USAREC Form 992 prior to physical training.
c. Host competitions between squads during station meetings in a variety of training sessions, FM
22-100 knowledge quizzes, PT activities, etc., and award desirable prizes for achievements.
d. Recognize DEP/DTP in the presence of their peers for academic, athletic, referral, and training
achievements. Use UFs 1041, 995, 1136 and 1137.
e. Become innovative and use the Explorer Program (through Boy Scouts of America) which
welcomes voluntary DEP/DTP and recruiter memberships. Their programs have become
mentally and physically challenging without the liability restrictions that apply to DEP functions.
7. Document all activities/contacts with DEP/DTP members.
a. Record all pertinent comments and interpretation of the conversations ( I.e. did the DEP/DTP
seem anxious, ask questions that might indicate reluctance to report for training, seem to be
unhappy about enlistment commitment, etc.).
b. Record upcoming events (school tests, athletic competitions, family activities, etc.) to discuss
with the DEP/DTP during the next follow up.

c. Compile Recruiter Publicity Items (RPI) and posters that highlight and reinforce the area's
popular AMEDD options.
d. Determine what areas lack a proportionate number of COI/VIPs and plot a contact strategy for
each of the previously identified areas.
e. Define area health care facilities hiring practices, wages, turnover, employee profiles, shift,
schedules, and volume of employment by type of hospitals, clinics and colleges for each of the
previously identified areas.
2. Conduct an organized canvassing effort.
a. Place appropriate posters in high visibility areas.
(1) Record location and date in the planning tool or locally prepared canvassing file.

g. Determine market averages (Information presented is an average, by recruiter zone (OPRA),
over a 3 year period)
h. Determine the average number of senior males
i. Determine the average number of grad males
j. Determine the estimated current 17-21 year old population
k. Determine the projected 17-21 year old population

p. Determine the average volume contracts each zone produced in a year for DOD
q. Determine the average volume share of DOD contracts each zone produced in a year for the
Army
r. Determine the number of recruiters recommended for the station based on DOD production
2. Analyze the Detailed Station Report:
a. Compare zip codes listed against those posted on the Operations and Analysis Board and
makes necessary changes to the board.
b. Identify whether any assigned zip code is split between stations (Indicated by a percentage,
rather than a whole number, under "Zip Split" column)
(1) Analyze split zip codes to determine the geographical area (boundary)of the zip code
(2) Determine which schools serve as "feeders" to the zip code
3 - 154
STP 12-79R35-SM-TG
Performance Steps
(3) Determine the assignment of the feeder schools to the appropriate zips (Example: If a zip
code is split equally (.5 under split zip) between stations (A and B), both stations are
credited and missioned for ½ of the production in the zip code. If station B has none of
the schools within the zip code, they are missioned against a senior zone they cannot
recruit for. Additionally, in this scenario zone A might be missioned for less than it's
senior potential since half of all contracts from the assigned school production is credited
to another RS)
c. Determine whether all schools assigned to the station are listed on the DSRPT. If not,
immediately notifies the battalion Operations for corrections.
d. Determine that all schools listed belong to his RS. Discrepancies are immediately identified
and the CLT is notified for correction.
e. Determine if any assigned schools are split between stations
f. Determine average (over a 3 year period) market make-up and production:
(1) Average Senior males and females for each school
(2) Average number of grads maintained on LRLs
(3) Average current 17-21 year old population
(4) Projected 17-21 year old population
(5) Notes major changes between current and projected 17-21 year old population
(6) Determine which colleges are assigned to the RS (takes immediate action to add any
missing schools by notifying the battalion operations)
(7) Determine average number of ARMY GSA contracts each zip code produced in a year
(8) Determines average number of GSA contracts DOD produced in a year in each zip
(9) Determine the average share of all DOD GSA contracts the Army achieved in a year for
each zip
(10) Determine average number of ARMY volume contracts each zip code produce in a year
(11) Determine average number of DOD volume contracts produced in a year in each zip
(12) Determine the average share of all DOD volume contracts the Army achieved in a year for
each zip
(13) Determine the recommended OPRA for each zip assigned to the RS
(14) Note the following for planning:
( a) All zips which historically produce the majority of contracts (GSA/VOL) for the RS
(uses information to maintain recruiter/station focus)
( b) All zips producing more contracts for the other services than they are for the Army
(uses the information to reallocate resources)
( c) All significance between senior/grad populations compared to production to
determine possible markets of opportunity (Example: Zip code A has a total
GRAD/SR population of 1000 and produces an average of 6.3 GSA contracts and 15
volume per year. Zone B has a GRAD/SR population of 1150 and produces only 3.6
GSA contracts and 7.8 volume. This might be an indicator that zone B has the
potential to out produce zone A if given increased activity)

1. Analyze the USAR Territory Report:
a. Determine whether the RS is authorized USAR recruiters
b. Determine the number of AGR/GS7 reserve recruiters authorized
c. Determine which other stations are supported by the USAR recruiter assigned to his/her station
d. Determine the Reserve units/location the RS supports
e. Determine the number of vacancies available in the USAR unit
2. Analyze the Detailed USAR Territory Report (3 year average per OPAGR zone in the RS)
a. Determine the current/projected 17-29 year old population
b. Determine the average NPS, PS, and volume production
c. Determine the distributed vacancies (Note: Distributed Vacancies are the reserve vacancies
reported by a TPU. For instance, if zip code 12345 is within 50 miles of a TPU, and the TPU
has 10 vacancies, then the 10 vacancies are divided by the available population (22-29) within
the entire 50-mile radius to determine how many vacancies are distributed to this each zip
code. If zip code 12345 falls within the 50 mile radius of 3 TPUs, then the same formula applies
except that the available population is first divided by 3 to ensure that zip code 12345 doesn't
report 3 times the market it actually has available)

Conditions: You are the Recruiting Station Commander. You are given a daily requirement to access
the Top Of the System (TOS) Reorts and analyze the available reports and you have access to the
following:
Standards: Analyze the Top Of the System (TOS) reports to prepare yourself for DPR with your
recruiters.
Performance Steps
1. Analyze the applicant processing list
a. Check to see if recruiter prospects in both male and female markets.
b. Check and verify that the recruiter has a variety of Lead sources.
c. Check to see if appointments are being conducted within 72hrs of original scheduled time.
d. Check to see if the appointments are being conducted and immediately terminated.
e. Verify if there are any problems with too many DQ's, QNE's, Medical Disqualifications, or test
failures.
f. Check that the recruiter's follow-up dates are proactive and if not direct them to be.
g. Ensure your own directives are measurable, achievable, and aggressive.
2. Analyze the Lead Source Analysis
a. Check the volume of appointments conducted and compare with contracts obtained. This
indicates the efficiency in converting prospects of a particular market segment.
b. Look for the absence of or low volume of appointments conducted and contracts obtained in a
given market segment. This indicates the potential for increased production by directing activity
into the appropriate market.
c. Look for a low volume of contracts obtained in relation to appointments conducted in a
particular market segment. This indicates difficulty in converting appointments to contracts and
must be resolved through sales training provided to recruiters by the RS commander, recruiter
training noncommissioned officer, and CLT.
d. Regardless of the conversion ratio (i.e., 13:1, 4:1), ensure that the appointments conducted
that did not convert to contracts are not lost and adequate follow-up guidance is given.
e. Review your recruiters' ALSA data in a face-to-face tutorial with the recruiters. Teach them
how to analyze their own ALSA data by asking them questions about each lead source. Make
sure your recruiters understand their strengths and weaknesses, and know how to improve in
both.
3. Analyze The Military Entrance Testing (MET Log) Processing list
a. Use the MET Processing Log to review testing volume daily.
b. Check for an abnormally large number of unqualified testers. This may indicate prospecting in
restricted market segments, rather than in the entire market place.
c. Check for Low-test scores. This may indicate a need to examine lead source mixes of the RS
and/or for individual recruiter.
d. Look for consistently high scores by the applicants of a single recruiter. This may indicate the
potential for prospecting tips that should be shared with other recruiters.
e. Review "MET passed" volume. This can be used to accurately predict contract volume in the
following week.
3 - 168
STP 12-79R35-SM-TG
Performance Steps
f. Look for and analyze low testing volume. Work ethic and sales training issues must be
addressed as possible solutions for low testing volume.
4. Analyze Military Entrance Processing Station (MEPS) Processing list
a. Check the MEPs Processing List from previous RSMs to ensure the following are given another
opportunity to enlist:
(1) QNE
(2) Temporary Medical Disqualifications
(3) Over Weights
5. Analyze DEP/DTP Tracking Log
a. Looked for periods where a small number of DEP promotions occurred. This may indicate the
need for greater emphasis on training and leadership focused on increasing referrals.
b. Verified attendance to the DEP Functions. Follow-up closely with no-shows.
c. During periods of a large DEP and DTP pool (typically the summer months), directed recruiters
to increase number of DEP/DTP referrals to take advantage of the situation.
d. Directed to the amount of time management spent in effective DEP and DTP maintenance to
prevent an increase in DEP loss and DTP reservation cancellations.
e. Checked time management issues. Recruiters' efforts expended in follow-up increase. This will
reduce the amount of attention for each DEP or DTP member.
f. Checked for referrals. Larger pools increase the potential for referrals.
6. Analyze DEP Separation Log
a. Check to see if there are any trends. (IE.Over-weights, erroneous enlistments, etc.)
b. Check to see if there are any possible re-contract possiblities
c. Verify early identification problems. Should be identified 45 days out.
d. Check to see if the number of USAR recruits are excessive.
7. Analyze Conversion Data
a. Telephone prospecting. Trouble making appointments.

members for current and past yearbooks, sports, and other school activities; talk to other
people who might know the individual and can give you information).
(2) Not creating enough interest. You must ask fact-finding, open-ended questions. This will
assist you in uncovering the prospect's buying motive.
(3) Not using the buying motive as a reason for asking for an appointment. Don't forget you
must sell the appointment not the Army.
(4) Not asking for the appointment, just flat not asking: "John, would Monday at 4:00 p.m. be

(2) Too much time between appointment made and conduct. (More than 72 hours increases
no-show rate.) Follow-up 24 hours before appointment to confirm.
(3) Overselling on the telephone. Telling the lead everything over the telephone will leave
little to talk about during the interview.
(4) Making the appointment just for the sake of satisfying a requirement. (Not making a good
appointment.) You know this person will be a no-show, remember you have to follow-up
on this person (time management).
(5) Failure to confirm the time and place of appointment.
(6) Failure to confirm the prospect's mode of transportation to the place of appointment.
(7) Failure to use effective listening when speaking with the prospect(s).

Prescreening Form)?
(2) Did you have medical documentation for all cases where an individual was hospitalized or
received treatment from a doctor?
(3) Did you check with parents to clear up any questions about physical problems the
applicant might have had?
(4) Did you advise applicant about MEPS processing procedures (i.e., consults, blood
pressure, high protein, bring glasses, refraction, etc.)?
(5) Did you check thoroughly for drug and/or alcohol abuse?
(6) Did you send an applicant you knew wasn't qualified to physical?
(7) Did you use Dial-A-Medic for questionable cases? (Dial-A-Medic is a telephone contact at

assignment)?
(4) Did you send your applicant to MEPS to let the GC close the sale?
(5) Did you explain MEPS processing procedures to your applicant (i.e., long day and to be
patient)?
(6) Did you fail to determine your applicant's real buying motives?
(7) Did you present features and benefits to satisfy your applicant's real needs, wants, and
desires?
(8) Did you uncover the emotional reason for buying?

3 - 181
STP 12-79R35-SM-TG
Performance Steps
( a) Army adventure vans, combat arms/special ops teams for audiences predisposed to
adventure
( b) TAIR skill teams for classroom presentations that appeal to the interests of the class.
For example, if the target audience consists primarily of Hispanic males from three
station zip codes, determine what MOSs, options, and incentives Hispanic males
from those specific zips have enlisted for in the past (3 years), and match the TAIR
asset, RPIs, HRAP, and recruiters (if possible) to the audience. If training of choice
in electronics/communications and the cash bonus represent the target group's most
common historical enlistment pattern, select TAIR assets and RPI that highlight
those opportunities more so than other Army options.
( c) High tech equipment from Troop Program Units (TPUs) for displays and
demonstrations.
c. Market national RSB/TAIR in non-supportive or reluctant schools by:
(1) Identifying that portion of the school population with likely interest in the presentation
(review DAMASCUS, enlistment trends, post-high school employment patterns, go-to-
college rates, etc.).
(2) Developing and delivering a persuasive presentation to school decision-makers that
illustrates the benefit of the asset, i.e., better informed staff/students, assistance to those
not planning college or those exploring specific occupational fields, a break from the
traditional classroom routine, and an exciting/enriching learning experience.
d. Establish challenging lead generation, appointment and COI development objectives for each
day the asset resides in the station zone.
e. Ensure recruiters communicate with unit/RSB points of contact (van drivers, exhibitors, and skill
team NCOICs) to confirm:
(1) Availability time/preparedness of the asset
(2) Power requirements, size of the asset (will it fit in planned location), set-up time, safety
considerations, etc.
(3) Travel distance authorized between set-ups when itineraries call for multiple presentation
sites.
(4) Asset NCOIC understands site-specific restrictions on noise, collection of student
information, potential scheduling conflicts, etc.
f. Oversee placement coordination:
(1) Site-visit to ensure support equipment will fit in the proposed set-up location
(2) Timely pre-event follow-up with hosts
(3) Frequent participation estimates to ensure effective use of the asset (re-direct if
necessary)
(4) Sufficient support materials (RPIs, PPIs) on hand or on order.
g. Focus advertising on target markets to maximize participation:
(1) Request advertising of upcoming events through A&PA.
(2) Announce HRAP participation through A&PA in hometown news releases and school
newspapers
(3) Post the area in and around the site with appropriate literature/displays
h. Manage the conduct of RSB/TAIR activities:
(1) Designate appropriate recruiter uniforms and inspect prior to the event
(2) Direct prospecting IAW instructions in prospecting tasks in this STP
(3) Brief and rehearse recruiters on their specific actions/responsibilities once on-site (where
to stand, what "scripted" messages to share with leads during prospecting, their role in
formally introducing subject matter/team members to the audience, etc.).
i. Stimulate aggressive follow-up activities by requiring recruiters to:
(1) Account for and follow-up with all qualified leads within 72 hours
(2) Follow-up with all lower classmen within 5 days.
(3) Post LRLs with all blueprinting gathered within 24 hours.
(4) Solicit feedback from the host:
( a) Impressions of the asset and its use.
( b) Suggestions for future assets.

( c) Referral of other schools/groups that might benefit from similar presentations in the
future
2. Oversee the use of HRAP:
a. Request each DEP/DTP member for HRAP duty that has the potential to refer others for
enlistment.
b. Require recruiters to develop strategies that put the HRAP and recruiter in contact with as
many people as possible:
(1) Direct HRAPs to screen station LRLs/databases and yearbooks:
( a) Prioritize each lead by known/suspected mental category
( b) If feasible, accompany the HRAP on immediate house calls.
( c) Assign an aggressive follow-up suspense for each lead not contacted.
( d) Actively work each lead until face-to-face contact occurs.
( e) Document all blueprinting information the HRAP provides
(2) Ask the HRAP to identify all teachers and faculty members (COI) he/she knows and:

or validate opportunities.
(5) Allow HRAPs to give training (rehearse beforehand) during DEP/DTP meetings and
functions to demonstrate the range and proficiency of the HRAP's skill after only a short
period of active duty. This also provides an opportunity for DEP/DTP members to express
concerns with HRAP (peers) they may not express to you.
3. Oversee use of ADSW:
a. Direct recruiters to identify potential Active Duty Special Work (ADSW) program candidates in
local Troop Program Units (TPU):

d. Plays introduction video from the introduction screen for a multimedia presentation.
6. Evaluate the recruiter's transition from rapport to probing needs and interests.
a. Introduces "Puzzle Screen" on the multimedia or "TEAMS" page in the salesbook.
7. Evaluate how well the recruiter determines the prospect's needs and interests.
a. Determine the recruiter's understanding of the following dynamics of probing:
(1) To fully understand the prospect's motives, recruiters must refine and polish their
technique for determining needs and underlying desires. Especially those needs the
prospect is not conscious of. A thorough exploration of logical needs,(WHAT) "I need
money to buy a car," and two emotional needs,(WHY,WHY ELSE) "I want to attract
attention from the opposite sex," "I really like a fast car", forms the cornerstone of success
later in the presentation.
(2) The recruiter's objective during the "uncovering needs" stage of the sales presentation is
learning for themselves if and why enlisting represents a more advantageous course of
action to the prospect than choosing other options. Questions must reflect the recruiter's
genuine interest in helping the prospect while also satisfying the people that influence the
prospect's choices most often..
b. Verify the recruiter's understanding of the following Prospect Barriers:
(1) Prospects are reluctant to candidly discuss personal issues with a recruiter and often will
not share their real needs. This reluctance stems from the premium our society places on
privacy and the tendency many people have to view "needs" as "weaknesses." Admitting
a need hampers the image of independence most young people seek desperately to
project.
(2) Prospects camouflage their real needs, goals, and desires by automatically rendering
responses palatable to the adults that influence them. Many say they don't have specific
goals. Others realize the Army can meet their needs, but will not admit it because they
fear losing control of the conversation, or want to avoid choices involving personal
sacrifice.
c. Evaluate the recruiter's ability to develop a sound questioning technique that incorporates the
following concepts:
(1) Nonverbal communication carries far more importance than verbal communication.
Experts say nonverbal communication accounts for 60-80 percent of what the prospect
"hears." In other words, it's not exactly what a recruiter says; it's exactly how they say it.
This points up the need for well constructed, rehearsed, personalized scripts. Scripts that
include fundamental questions and spontaneous follow-ons to likely prospect responses.
(2) In broad terms, the recruiter's questions should address the past, present, and future.
Most should be open-ended. Flow is important and should be natural. Awkward pauses
can cause uneasiness. Preparation remains the key.
(3) By addressing the past, present, and future, the recruiter is far more likely to remove
communication barriers, maintain focus, see things from the prospect's point of view, and
gain a complete picture of the prospect's needs. Applied in a relaxed style, strong
questioning skills will elicit responses central to the effective portrayal of Army options.
(4) Recruiters should ask themselves, "what would it take to sway the prospect, on a purely
emotional level?" Because buying decisions are largely emotional, what the prospect
wants pales in comparison to why he/she wants it.
(5) Developing a sound questioning technique includes the recruiter's ability to smoothly and
inoffensively determine if a prospect chose junior or community college for academic or
financial reasons. Further, what impact did a girl/boyfriend have on their choice? How do
his/her parents feel? What would he/she do if the junior/community college didn't exist?
3 - 219
STP 12-79R35-SM-TG
Performance Steps
d. Evaluate the recruiter's listening techniques and understanding of the following tenets of
interpersonal communication:
(1) Listening shows concern and builds trust. It sends a positive message that the recruiter
wants to help the prospect achieve important personal objectives. The recruiter must pay
particular attention to nonverbal expressions of interest:
( a) Face the prospect and lean slightly forward (shows openness).
( b) Nod, smile, and acknowledge (shows approval).
( c) Do not fold arms across the body (shows anxiety).
( d) Do not lean forward with elbows on knees (too intent).
( e) Do not slouch (too relaxed).
( f) Do not lean back and cross legs with ankles on knee (shows disinterest).
( g) Sit up straight, but not rigidly.
( h) Maintain eye contact (5-10 seconds at a time), but don't stare.
( i) Pause before replying (shows thoughtfulness).
( j) Do not close hands or hold something continuously (open palms are a sign of having
nothing to hide)
( k) Ensure facial expressions reflect attentiveness.
(2) When prospects tell the recruiter about their interests, goals, and desires, the recruiter
should agree that they're good ones and should compliment them. The recruiter should
never argue with the prospect or pass judgement.
( a) The recruiter should look for indications that the prospect is dissatisfied with some
aspect of his or her life. It may be family, school, work, or a relationship, and might
prove a powerful buying motive.
( b) The recruiter should never ask the prospect what they "think" about something, it
forces the prospect to make a value judgement. Instead, they should ask, "How do
you feel about . . . ?" Or, "In your opinion do you feel . . . ?"
( c) The recruiter should never directly ask why. Asking "why" is an unwelcome
challenge that places the prospect on the defensive.
( d) The recruiter should never interrupt.
( e) Recruiters should resist the temptation to sell as they are in the listening mode at this
point in the presentation.
(3) Unspoken buying motives:
( a) Desire for self-improvement. A recent survey shows new recruits cite self-betterment
as a big reason for enlisting.
( b) Independence
( c) Self-discipline and direction.
( d) An authority figure to make decisions. Some young people simply need someone to
tell them what to do.
( e) Personal growth, perspective, and maturity.
( f) Change. A need to escape boring routines, people, and places.
( g) Acceptance. A sense of belonging that comes from status as a valued team
member.
e. Evaluate the recruiter's ability to summarize and prioritize buying motives and determine the
most important (dominant) buying motives as follows:
(1) Recites, nearly verbatim, the prospect's "What, Why, and Why else" statements about
each of the prospects Buying Motives of TEAMS. Demonstrating to the prospect the
importance of what they said to the recruiter.
(2) Specifies the order of precedence for buying motives (from the recruiter's standpoint) and
adjusts the order if the prospect states they are incorrect.
8. Evaluate the recruiter's ability to determine a prospect's qualifications, ensuring they:
a. Introduce the Privacy Act statement.
b. Open the APPLESMDT screen or turn to page in salesbook.
c. Use elements of APPLESMDT to ascertain eligibility.
d. Use onscreen prompts to supplement screening questions.
3 - 220
STP 12-79R35-SM-TG
Performance Steps
e. Use WinCAST for all prospects without a previous ASVAB score:
f. Tell the prospect his/her eligibility, pay grade, and Waiver status if necessary.
g. Review/summarize the buying motives in order from most important to least.
NOTE: If the prospect is disqualified, the recruiter should cover the FACTS and Evidence of the
prospects Buying Motives and attempt to solicit referrals. The recruiter should make a genuine attempt to
create a COI/VIP from this situation.
9. Evaluate the recruiter's ability to present appropriately tailored features and benefits.
Note: During the remainder of the sales presentation the recruiter can access supplementary information.
(Additional benefits, Army locations, basic training, etc.).
a. Present the prospect with a FACT statement about an Army program that matches their least
important BM.
b. Present evidence for the FACT that was just stated.
(1) RWS videos
(2) RPI's
(3) Pay Charts (printable)
(4) Education benefits (printable charts)
(5) Other items that support the interview (pages from the sales book, personal materials like
diplomas, etc)
c. Evaluate the recruiter's explanation of how Army programs (facts) will benefit the prospect by:
(1) Repeat the "True Benefits" back to the prospect. (Their What, Why, Why for this BM).
(2) Invite the prospect to relax and then created a visual word picture placing the prospect in
a favorable situation using the Army to get their "What" for this BM.
d. Ask if the prospect agreed that the Army's program (FACT) will get them their Needs(WHAT).
10. Evaluate the recruiter's ability to obtain the prospect's agreement that Army program(s) will benefit
them through the use of appropriate trial closes, understanding that:
a. Trial closes are buying temperature checks. Recruiters should watch for positive buying
signals.
b. Trial closes should address feelings and emotions rather than require the prospect to think or
make a value judgement, i.e., "How do you feel" . . . versus.... "What do you think"
c. Asking the prospect how they feel about what the recruiter said is non-threatening and will
reveal how far along they are in the decision process. It also ensures that the prospect
understands how the Army will provide the benefit(s) they need.
d. A positive response to a trial close can set the stage for the recruiter's actual close.
e. Recruiters should use trial closes frequently, ask for an opinion before asking for a decision.
f. Satisfying the least important buying motives will rarely motivate a prospect to enlist.
11. Evaluate how well the recruiter closes and handles objections by asking the prospect to enlist using
any of a number of closing techniques such as:
a. Single-question close
b. Two choice close
c. Already enlisted close
d. Challenge Close
e. Contingency close
f. Other reasonable techniques
12. Evaluate the recruiter's ability to handle objections:
a. Uncover true objection using the ORJ method ("Obviously you", "Restate", and "Just
Suppose").
b. Handle the objection using "Feel, Felt, Found" or a complete "FEBWA" technique.
c. Close again by asking the prospect to enlist using any of a number of closing techniques.
d. Avoid becoming confrontational and begging for the commitment.
e. If the prospect still refused to process, went to number one DBM and presented another
FEBWA.

STP 12-79R35-SM-TG
Performance Steps
NOTE: If the prospect agreed to enlist on the first BM, then the only things that are covered will be the
Fact and Evidence of the remaining BMs and Money if not already covered.
13. Evaluate the recruiter's ability to schedule follow-up:
a. If the prospect committed to processing, immediately phone the station commander to
introduce the prospect and create the opportunity for the station commander to reinforce the
prospect's commitment and schedule processing.
(1) Clicks "MEPS" button or turns to MEPs page in the salesbook.
(2) Review MEPS components to clarify processing procedures.
b. If the prospect did not commit to enlistment:
(1) Set a firm date and time within 72 hours for a face-to-face follow-up to answer questions.
(2) Create a reason to stop by if necessary. (Leave a magazine, VHS tape, book, catalog,
etc., for the prospect's review).
(3) Sets a firm date and time to present additional information related to the prospect's
interests.
14. Evaluate the recruiter's ability to solicit referrals and gather blueprinting information on other
potential leads by asking the prospect who they know:
a. That might be interested in military service
b. In a particular teacher's class studying traditional pre-college course subject(s)
c. That plans to pursue a vocational technical degree
d. In search of employment
e. That settled for enrollment in a junior/community college because of financial limitations, but is
academically ready for college or university-level course work.
15. Verify proper logoff/exit procedures for multimedia presentation.
a. Ensure recruiter concludes sales presentation, regardless of the outcome, on a positive note.
b. Click ! Button on FEBA screen navbar to launch "Army Values" screen.
Note: When evaluating a recruiter's presentation, consider experience and training levels to ensure that
each recruiter is constantly raising his/her level of proficiency. Smooth transitioning between screens will
give a good indication of the recruiter's knowledge of the system.
16. Verify the recruiter enters and records all information obtained into the Recruiter Workstation (RWS)
for review by the station commander.

Standards: Evaluate a recruiter's area canvassing technique to ensure that it focuses on lead generation
and creating interest in the Army within the community.
Performance Steps
1. Plan the canvassing strategy.
a. Dividing the market into multiple zones or areas to simplify the planning and execution of
canvassing in conjunction with prospecting and other recruiting activities.
b. Gathering information that reflects the area's historically popular enlistment options.
(1) Current and previous HS Folders.
(2) DEP/DTP Prospect Data Records.
(3) Processing Lists.
(4) DAMASCUS Reports (maintained on MapInfo database at battalion).
c. Compiling Recruiter Publicity Items (RPI) and posters that highlight and reinforce the area's
popular enlistment options.
d. Determining what areas lack a proportionate number of COI/VIPs and plotting a contact
strategy for each of the previously identified zones.
e. Defining service industry hiring practices, wages, turnover, employee profiles, shift schedules,
and volume of employment by type of business for each of the previously identified zones.
2. Conduct canvassing.
a. Place appropriate posters in high visibility areas.
(1) Record location and date in the planning guide or locally prepared canvassing file.
(2) Check posters periodically for condition and replace when necessary, or when new
information indicates that a change in advertisement may produce better results.
b. Stock high visibility locations with RPIs that advertise the area's popular enlistment options.
(1) Document RPI type, quantity placed, location and date.
(2) Check RPI racks frequently to determine use (which ones generate interest) and replenish
with new or different types as necessary.
(3) Use the small (two or three page) RPI instead of the larger "brochure" type. The smaller
RPI stimulate curiosity and generate calls to recruiters. Use the large brochure type as
evidence in the sales presentation or for use in providing information to COI/VIP during
presentations.
c. Explain the benefits of an Army enlistment to people of all ages, backgrounds, and
occupations.
d. Structure the canvassing effort to include contact with the potentially large volume of service
industry employees that work at night.

- Reduce attrition
- Increase referrals and promotions
- Provides effective training for new soldiers
- Improves participation in DEP/DTP functions
- Increases enrollment in the Concurrent Admissions Program.
Performance Steps
1. Evaluate current and past DEP/DTP programs:
a. Analyze loss rates for the current and past 2-years:
(1) Identify separation trends (fail to grad, apathy, DAT, etc.)
(2) Determine which recruiters (past or present) account for a disproportionate number of
losses
(3) Determine other trends, i.e., number of losses interviewed initially in the RS, number
enlisted outside their interest area for combat arms, number of fail-to-grads from a
particular school, weak follow-up, etc.
(4) Determine number of current DEP/DTP members that share the same risk factors, as in
(3) above, and consider coding them "amber" on the DEP log.
b. Decide if immediate changes to station DEP/DTP management practices will reduce losses:
(1) Increased telephone and face to face follow-up
(2) Energizing DEP functions
(3) Closer station commander interaction with all applicants processed by recruiters with
higher-than-average loss rates
(4) More station commander involvement at the guidance shop with "hard sells".
2. Analyze DEP log (UF611) data to further identify trends and realize improvements as follows:
a. Determine which recruiter(s) has the highest current DEP loss rate, and consider this data
when updating the status block on UF611.
b. Determine which mission categories historically separate at a higher rate and account for this
when planning follow-up action and tutorials.
c. Compare contract-to-ship dates. The larger the window, the more likely a loss will occur.
d. Compare enlistment options with remarks made on the 200 card/contact database. Closely
monitor those DEP/DTP sold outside of their primary interest area (wanted MP's but enlisted for
cook).
e. Decide if the lack of referrals and promotion to PV2 signals DEP/DTP apathy about the Army or
recruiter apathy toward a particular DEP/DTP member.
f. Judge whether date of last DEP function attendance indicates DEP/DTP apathy or recruiter
inattentiveness.
g. Determine potential obstacles to performing the station commander's 30-60 day follow-up
(spring break, summer vacation, Christmas holidays, etc.) and adjust to accomplish follow-up
ahead of schedule.

STP 12-79R35-SM-TG
Performance Steps
h. Constantly compare the current height/weight from the contact database to the entry
weight/max weight figures recorded. Take appropriate action should the DEP/DTP member
show signs of gaining (or losing) too much weight.
3. Energize the DEP/DTP Program:
a. Conduct informative DEP/DTP orientations by focusing the recruiter on the following:
(1) Planning the "who, what, when, where, and why(s)," prior to the orientation:
( a) Who will conduct the briefing, who will attend from the station besides the recruiter,
and who should attend with the DEP/DTP (person referring the DEP/DTP, parents,
influencers, and/or significant others)?
( b) What pre-orientation research and resources should the recruiter accomplish/collect
(RPIs, regulations, web-site down loads, videos, etc.) and what topics must the
recruiter cover (DEP/DTP enlistment agreement, options, incentives, the Guide for
New Soldiers, and/or related Army programs)?
( c) Where will the recruiter conduct the orientation (preferably at the DEP/DTP member's
home)?
( d) When will the recruiter conduct the orientation? (The 3-10 day orientation window
allows for proper planning, research, and preparation.)
(2) Gather and review resources and rehearse the briefing before the orientation.
(3) Provide a second, complete multimedia sales presentation during the 3-10 day orientation
window (but not necessarily during the initial briefing), that points up many of the "hidden"
benefits of Army service. As an example, for those DEP/DTP with education DBMs,
"hidden" benefits might include:
( a) Internet access at the post library.
( b) The Green to Gold ROTC Scholarship Program for active duty personnel
(http://147.248.153.211/scholarships/green/)
( c) Admission to West Point (from AD enlisted status, www.usma.edu)
( d) Dependent entitlement to use Army Education Centers
( e) DANTES Testing and College Credit for Skills (www.voled.doded.mil)
( f) Distance Learning Courses
( g) Service members Opportunity Colleges (1200 private/public colleges and
universities, http://www.voled.doded.mil/soc/what is.htm)
( h) Army Continuing Education System (www.perscom.army.mil/tagd/aces/aces.htm)
( i) Army/American Council on Education Registry Transcript System
(http://leav-www.army.mil/aarts/
( j) Army Medical Department's Enlisted Commissioning Program
(www.goarmy.com/med/ancsp.htm)
( k) Tuition Assistance ($3500 annually)
Note: Re-probe each area of TEAMS and clearly tie the DEP/DTP's enlistment options to his/her stated
wants, needs, goals and desires in a manner that appeals to the emotions. Secure the DEP/DTP
member's complete agreement at this point. Watch for hesitation or signs of doubt. Preferably, the
Station Commander or 1SG should conduct this interview. Prepare to answer more direct, candid
questions in the orientation than the DEP/DTP asked during the initial interview.
(4) Provide the DEP/DTP member a "mission statement" that outlines their responsibilities for
referrals, follow-up, DEP function attendance, maintaining eligibility, reporting for AD, etc.
(5) Provide the DEP/DTP member with a chain of command briefing that includes putting their
photo on the DEP board.
(6) Brief the new soldier on the use of the DEP/DTP ID card and issue metal "dog tags."
(7) Review the RWS videos with the new soldier that correspond to his/her options, MOS,
assignment, and basic training/IET.
(8) Conclude the orientation by jointly signing the Commitment to Excellence Certificate
(furnish original to DEP/DTP).
b. Conduct personalized DEP/DTP follow-up by ensuring the recruiter:
3 - 252
STP 12-79R35-SM-TG
Performance Steps
(1) Begins each follow-up contact by addressing personal issues in the new soldier's life,
such as school work, status of relationships, free-time activities, plans for the upcoming
week/weekend, and an offer of support or assistance when needed.
(2) Adheres to the follow-up schedule contained in UR 601-95.
(3) Has conducted a complete sales presentation with each parent, spouse, or significant
other, covering the interest areas of the DEP/DTP as well as those of the influencer. For
instance, if the DEP/DTP member enlisted for adventure and had no interest in education,
"sell" the influencer, nonetheless, on the Army's educational benefits during and after
enlistment.
(4) Collects report cards at the end of each secondary school grading period.
(5) Conducts weekly weigh-ins for those DEP/DTP that exceeded screening table weight
(needed body fat) at time of DEP-in.
(6) Acknowledges birthdays, Christmas, graduation and other significant occasions with an
appropriate greeting card. (non-reimbursable)
(7) Continues to follow-up with influencers after the DEP/DTP has shipped to training.
c. Conduct dynamic DEP/DTP tutorials and relationship-building activities by ensuring the
recruiter:
(1) Sets aside uninterrupted tutorial time exclusively for the DEP/DTP once each month.
(2) Carefully plans each monthly tutorial, combining instruction on pre-BT tasks (UF1137)
with the DEP/DTP Correspondence Course Program, and quality relationship building.
(3) Structures each tutorial to allay fears of basic training.
(4) Includes at least one leadership concept in each tutorial from FM 22-100.
(5) Highlights Army benefits not previously covered (Space A travel, outdoor recreation
services, post-service VA benefits, etc.).
(6) Educates the DEP/DTP about Army facilities/programs: Gyms, craft shops, theaters,
libraries, intramural sports, All Army Sports Teams, World Class Athlete Program, MWR
services, etc.).
(7) Presents the DEP/DTP with a "gift" during the tutorial that piques interest and leads to

Unit Insignia, Regimental Unit Insignia, Marksmanship badges, the Army Service Ribbon,
Airborne "wings," the Ranger Tab, etc.
(8) Understands new soldiers expect recruiter guidance in getting promoted to PV2 through
the referral award system. Strives to see that each and every new soldier achieves some

Performance Measures GO NO GO
1. Evaluated current and past DEP/DTP programs: —— ——
a. Analyzed loss rates for the current and past 2-years:
(1) Identified separation trends (fail to grad, apathy, DAT, etc.)
(2) Determined which recruiters (past or present) account for a
disproportionate number of losses
(3) Determined other trends, i.e., number of losses interviewed initially in
the RS, number enlisted outside their interest area for combat arms,
number of fail-to-grads from a particular school, weak follow-up, etc.
(4) Determined number of current DEP/DTP members that share the same
risk factors, as in (3) above, and consider coding them "amber" on the
DEP log.
b. Decided if immediate changes to station DEP/DTP management practices
will reduce losses:
(1) Increased telephone and face to face follow-up
(2) Energized DEP functions
(3) Closer station commander interaction with all applicants processed by
recruiters with higher-than-average loss rates
(4) More station commander involvement at the guidance shop with "hard
sells".
2. Analyzed DEP log (UF611) data to further identify trends and realize —— ——
improvements as follows:
a. Determined which recruiter(s) has the highest current DEP loss rate, and
consider this data when updating the status block on UF611.
b. Determined which mission categories historically separate at a higher rate
and account for this when planning follow-up action and tutorials.

c. Compared contract-to-ship dates. The larger the window, the more likely a
loss will occur.
d. Compared enlistment options with remarks made on the 200 card/contact
database. Monitored those DEP/DTP sold outside of their primary interest
area (wanted MP's but enlisted for cook).
e. Decided if the lack of referrals and promotion to PV2 signals DEP/DTP
apathy about the Army or recruiter apathy toward a particular DEP/DTP
member.
f. Judged whether date of last DEP function attendance indicates DEP/DTP
apathy or recruiter inattentiveness.
g. Determined potential obstacles to performing the station commander's 30-60
day follow-up (spring break, summer vacation, Christmas holidays, etc.) and
adjust to accomplish follow-up ahead of schedule.
h. Constantly compared the current height/weight from the contact database to
the entry weight/max weight figures recorded. Take appropriate action
should the DEP/DTP member show signs of gaining (or losing) too much
weight.
3. Energized the DEP/DTP Program: —— ——
a. Conducted informative DEP/DTP orientations by focusing the recruiter on
the following:
(1) Planned the "who, what, when, where, and why(s)," prior to the
orientation:
( a) Who will conduct the briefing, who will attend from the station
besides the recruiter, and who should attend with the DEP/DTP
(person referring the DEP/DTP, parents, influencers, and/or
significant others)?
( b) What pre-orientation research and resources should the recruiter
accomplish/collect (RPIs, regulations, web-site down loads,
videos, etc.) and what topics must the recruiter cover (DEP/DTP
enlistment agreement, options, incentives, the Guide for New
Soldiers, and/or related Army programs)?
( c) Where will the recruiter conduct the orientation (preferably at the
DEP/DTP member's home)?
( d) When will the recruiter conduct the orientation? (The 3-10 day
orientation window allows for proper planning, research, and
preparation.)
(2) Gathered and review resources and rehearse the briefing before the
orientation.
(3) Provided a second, complete multimedia sales presentation during the
3-10 day orientation window (but not necessarily during the initial
briefing), that points up many of the "hidden" benefits of Army service.
As an example, for those DEP/DTP with education DBMs, "hidden"
benefits might include:
( a) Internet access at the post library.
( b) The Green to Gold ROTC Scholarship Program for active duty
personnel (http://147.248.153.211/scholarships/green/)
( c) Admission to West Point (from AD enlisted status, www.usma.edu)
( d) Dependent entitlement to use Army Education Centers
( e) DANTES Testing and College Credit for Skills
(www.voled.doded.mil)
( f) Distance Learning Courses
( g) Service members Opportunity Colleges (1200 private/public
colleges and universities, http://www.voled.doded.mil/soc/what

( j) Army Medical Department's Enlisted Commissioning Program
(www.goarmy.com/med/ancsp.htm)
( k) Tuition Assistance ($3500 annually)
Note: Re-probe each area of TEAMS and clearly tie the DEP/DTP's enlistment options
to his/her stated wants, needs, goals and desires in a manner that appeals to the
emotions. Secure the DEP/DTP member's complete agreement at this point. Watch
for hesitation or signs of doubt. Preferably, the Station Commander or 1SG should
conduct this interview. Prepare to answer more direct, candid questions in the
orientation than the DEP/DTP asked during the initial interview.
(4) Provided the DEP/DTP member a "mission statement" that outlines
their responsibilities for referrals, follow-up, DEP function attendance,
maintaining eligibility, reporting for AD, etc.
(5) Provided the DEP/DTP member with a chain of command briefing that
includes putting their photo on the DEP board.
(6) Briefed the new soldier on the use of the DEP/DTP ID card and issue
metal "dog tags."
(7) Reviewed the RWS videos with the new soldier that correspond to
his/her options, MOS, assignment, and basic training/IET.
(8) Concluded the orientation by jointly signing the Commitment to
Excellence Certificate (furnish original to DEP/DTP).
b. Conducted personalized DEP/DTP follow-up by ensuring the recruiter:
(1) Begined each follow-up contact by addressing personal issues in the
new soldier's life, such as school work, status of relationships, free-time
activities, plans for the upcoming week/weekend, and an offer of
support or assistance when needed.
(2) Adhered to the follow-up schedule contained in UR 601-95.
(3) Conducted a complete sales presentation with each parent, spouse, or
significant other, covering the interest areas of the DEP/DTP as well as
those of the influencer. For instance, if the DEP/DTP member enlisted
for adventure and had no interest in education, "sell" the influencer,
nonetheless, on the Army's educational benefits during and after
enlistment.
(4) Collected report cards at the end of each secondary school grading
period.
(5) Conducted weekly weigh-ins for those DEP/DTP that exceeded
screening table weight (needed body fat) at time of DEP-in.
(6) Acknowledged birthdays, Christmas, graduation and other significant
occasions with an appropriate greeting card. (non-reimbursable)
(7) Continued to follow-up with influencers after the DEP/DTP has shipped
to training.
c. Conducted dynamic DEP/DTP tutorials and relationship-building activities by
ensuring the recruiter:
(1) Set aside uninterrupted tutorial time exclusively for the DEP/DTP once
each month.
(2) Carefully planned each monthly tutorial, combining instruction on pre-
BT tasks (UF1137) with the DEP/DTP Correspondence Course
Program, and quality relationship building.
(3) Structured each tutorial to allay fears of basic training.
(4) Included at least one leadership concept in each tutorial from FM 22-
100.

shops, theaters, libraries, intramural sports, All Army Sports Teams,
World Class Athlete Program, MWR services, etc.).
(7) Presented the DEP/DTP with a "gift" during the tutorial that piques
interest and leads to further mentoring, i.e., the origin and significance

Conditions: Given an AMEDD recruiter conducting area canvassing and access to:
Standards: Evaluate a recruiter's ability to correctly perform all steps of an area canvas.
Performance Steps
1. Evaluate the recruiter's canvassing strategy.
a. Ensure the recruiter divides the market into multiple zones or areas to simplify the planning and
execution of canvassing in conjunction with prospecting and other recruiting activities.
b. Ensure the recruiter gatheres information that reflects the area's historically popular AMEDD
programs and options.
(1) Current and previous School Folders.
(2) Current TPU Folders
c. Ensure the recruiter compiles Recruiter Publicity Items (RPI) and posters that highlight and
reinforce the area's popular AMEDD Programs and options.
d. Ensure the recruiter determines what areas lack a proportionate number of COI/VIPs and plots
a contact strategy for each of the previously identified zones.
e. Ensure the recruiter defines health care hiring practices, wages, turnover, employee profiles,
shift schedules, and volume of employment in all health care facilities, and colleges in each of
the previously identified zones.
2. Evaluate the recruiter's canvassing efforts.

Conditions: You are a newly assigned recruiting company first sergeant and your company production is
below acceptable standards. Using Top Of the System (TOS) reports complete your initial assessment.
You have access to:
Standards: Analyze the TOS reports to determine strengths and weaknesses in market penetration,
develop training needs, and increase production.
Performance Steps
1. Analyze Applicant Processing List
a. Does recruiter prospect in both male/female markets?
b. Does recruiter have a variety of lead sources?
c. Are appointments being conducted?
d. Are appointments being conducted and immediately terminated...if so why? (IE..Medical DQ's,
Over-weights)
e. Are suspension dates proactive or reactive?
f. Are station commander directives measurable and follow-ups done aggressively?
2. Analyze Lead Source Analysis
a. The volume of appointments conducted, when compared with contracts obtained, indicates
efficiency in converting prospects of a particular lead source.
b. The absence, or low volume, of appointments conducted and contracts obtained in a given
market segment, indicates the potential for increased production by directing activity into the
appropriate market.
c. A low volume of contracts obtained, in relation to appointments made in a particular market
segment, indicates difficulty in converting appointments to contracts, and must be resolved
through sales training provided to recruiters by the RS commander and CLT.
d. As with any other data gathered, this form only provides an indicator of strengths and
weaknesses. Thorough analysis of tools at
the recruiter level is necessary to confirm indicators and provide corrective action.
3. Analyze MET Processing Log
a. Use of the log permits the CLT to review testing volume daily, permitting an assessment of
meeting mission requirements.
b. An abnormally large number of unqualified testers may indicate prospecting in restricted market
segments, rather than in the entire market place
3 - 386
STP 12-79R35-SM-TG
Performance Steps
c. Low test scores may also indicate a need to examine lead source mixes of the RS and/or for
individual recruiters.
d. Consistently high scores by the applicants of a single recruiter, when accompanied by low
deviations, may indicate the potential for prospecting tips that should be shared with other
recruiters.
e. It has been adequately demonstrated by analysis that "MET passed" volume can be used to
accurately predict contract volume in the following week.
f. The only acceptable methods of increasing testing volume are to either increase prospecting or
to more effectively convert those prospects being processed to contracts. Work ethic and sales
training issues must be addressed as possible solutions for low testing volume.
g. The MET log is the pulse of production tools in the Rctg Co. It is the 1SG's PL and is used
much as the RS commander uses the RS PL. After test qualifying, applicants will be tracked
individually by the 1SG until a final disposition is determined.
h. During DPR, ask RS commanders about the status of each MET qualified applicant. Using the
ARISS systems remote performance review feature the CLT can check the status as well as
the aggressiveness of follow-ups. There must be evidence of RS commander involvement on
the station commander comments area of the PDR to show validation of attempts made to
move test qualified applicants to enlistment as quickly as possible.
4. Analyze MEPS Processing List
a. The CLT will conduct daily tracking of mission accomplishments by using the MEPS
Processing List located at the TOS.
b. The MEPS Processing List gives you a snapshot of how the Rctg Co, RS, and each of your
recruiters are making progress toward mission accomplishment for the current month. This list,
coupled with a daily/monthly/quarterly or YTD BOARDS production
report, located at the TOS, will provide you an accurate production status of the Rctg Co and
RS. It can easily be carried on the road and reviewed prior to visiting a Recruiting Station.
5. Analyze DEP/DTP Separation Log
a. DEP/DTP report is reviewed by the CLT to determine if RS maintenance of the DEP and DTP
pool is adequate, based on the incidence of DEP loss, and referrals being aggressively sought
and obtained. The purpose of such analysis is to assist in formulating training and leadership
actions designed to result in reduced DEP and DTP loss, and increased production as a result
of referrals.
(1) A small number of DEP and DTP promotions should alert the CLT to the need for greater
emphasis on DEP and DTP follow-up activities. The CLT must train RS commanders to
increase referrals gained by recruiters and more efficiently convert those referrals to
contracts.
(2) Information pertaining to special options may be reviewed to determine if emphasis is
being placed on enlistment incentives during sales interviews.
6. Analyze Enlisted Recruiter Report Card
7. Analyze Enlisted Conversion Data chart
a. Telephone prospecting. Trouble making appointments.
(1) Not establishing rapport. Find out as much as you can prior to calling (i.e., Ask DEP
members for current and past yearbooks, sports, and other school activities; talk to other
people who might know the individual and can give you information).
(2) Not creating enough interest. You must ask fact-finding, open-ended questions. This will
assist you in uncovering the prospect's buying motive.
(3) Not using the buying motive as a reason for asking for an appointment. Don't forget you
must sell the appointment not the Army.
(4) Not asking for the appointment, just flat not asking: "John, would Monday at 4:00 p.m. be
good or Tuesday at 6:00 p.m. be better for you to talk about your buying motive? I'll see
you at 4:00 p.m., if you have a friend bring him or her with you."

STP 12-79R35-SM-TG
Performance Steps
(5) Not prospecting or prospecting at the wrong time (i.e., calling from your senior LRL during
school hours).
b. Appointment made to conducted. (Trouble with no-shows)
(1) Not enough interest created during prospecting. (See trouble making appointments.)
(2) Too much time between appointment made and conduct. (More than 72 hours increases
no-show rate.) Follow-up 24 hours before appointment to confirm.
(3) Overselling on the telephone. Telling the lead everything over the telephone will leave
little to talk about during the interview.
(4) Making the appointment just for the sake of satisfying a requirement. (Not making a good
appointment.) You know this person will be a no-show, remember you have to follow-up
on this person (time management).
(5) Failure to confirm the time and place of appointment.
(6) Failure to confirm the prospect's mode of transportation to the place of appointment.
(7) Failure to use effective listening when speaking with the prospect(s).
c. Appointment conducted to test. Low conversion from appointment conducted to test.
(1) Did you get a commitment from the applicant? Did you ask the applicant to enlist?
(2) Did you present features and benefits for all the applicant's buying motives?
(3) Did you sell the Army and present facts, evidence, benefits, and attempt to obtain an
agreement for all the applicant's buying motives?
(4) Did you have a dominant buying motive to present facts, evidence, benefits, and
agreement (FEBA) or did you just assume what your applicant wanted?
(5) Did you paint word pictures and put the prospect in the pictures?
(6) Did you ask a second and third time for the commitment?
(7) Did you schedule a follow-up appointment if you could not close the first time?
(8) Did you use all the recruiting tools available to you (i.e., your sales book, recruiting
publicity items, other members of your recruiting team, etc.?
(9) Did you provide the prospect with a benefits summary sheet?
d. Trouble getting applicants to pass the ASVAB
(1) Did you WINCAST or EST the applicant?
(2) Are you administering the WINCAST or EST properly?
(3) Are you using the probability tables for the WINCAST and EST?
(4) Are you prospecting in a quality market or just calling anyone to make an appointment?
(5) Did you ask if the applicant was taking college preparatory courses or general studies in
school?
(6) Did you ask if the applicant took the Scholastic Aptitude Test or the American College
Test?
(7) Did you ask has the applicant previously taken the ASVAB/SASVAB?
e. Test pass to physical. Trouble getting applicants from test pass to physical.
(1) Did you just sell the test and hope the applicant would physical and enlist later?
(2) Did you probe training, education, adventure, money, and service to country; or did you
assume you knew what the applicant wanted?
(3) Did you give the applicant a reason to physical and enlist (i.e., did you satisfy the
applicant's dominant buying motive and properly FEBA it)?
(4) Did you close the sale and ask for the enlistment or did you assume the applicant would
physical and enlist? Did you get a commitment?
(5) Did you fail to overcome the applicant's objection to physical and enlist?
(6) Did you take too much time from the applicant's test date to physical? (Did you give the
applicant too much time to think about his or her decision and change his or her mind)?
f. Physical to physically qualified. Trouble getting applicants to pass the physical.
(1) Did you properly pre-screen the applicant using DD Form 2807-2 (Applicant Medical Pre-
screening Form)?
(2) Did you have medical documentation for all cases where an individual was hospitalized or
received treatment from a doctor?
(3) Did you check with parents to clear up any questions about physical problems the
applicant might have had?
3 - 388
STP 12-79R35-SM-TG
Performance Steps
(4) Did you advise applicant about MEPS processing procedures (i.e., consults, blood
pressure, high protein, bring glasses, refraction, etc.)?
(5) Did you check thoroughly for drug and/or alcohol abuse?
(6) Did you send an applicant you knew wasn't qualified to physical?
(7) Did you use Dial-A-Medic for questionable cases? (Dial-A-Medic is a telephone contact at
each MEPS that reaches the medical section. It is designed to provide guidance to
recruiters pertaining to medical questions.)
g. Physically qualified to enlisted. Trouble getting applicants from physically qualified to enlisted.

Performance Measures GO NO GO
1. Analyzed Applicant Processing List —— ——
a. Does recruiter prospect in both male/female markets?
b. Does recruiter have a variety of lead sources?
c. Are appointments being conducted?
d. Are appointments being conducted and immediately terminated...if so why?
(IE..Medical DQ's, Over-weights)
e. Are suspension dates proactive or reactive?
f. Are station commander directives measurable and follow-ups done
aggressively?
2. Analyzed Lead Source Analysis —— ——
a. The volume of appointments conducted, when compared with contracts
obtained, indicates efficiency in converting prospects of a particular lead
source.
3 - 389
STP 12-79R35-SM-TG
Performance Measures GO NO GO
b. The absence, or low volume, of appointments conducted and contracts
obtained in a given market segment, indicates the potential for increased
production by directing activity into the appropriate market.
c. A low volume of contracts obtained, in relation to appointments made in a
particular market segment, indicates difficulty in converting appointments to
contracts, and must be resolved through sales training provided to recruiters
by the RS commander and CLT.
d. As with any other data gathered, this form only provides an indicator of
strengths and weaknesses. Thorough analysis of tools at
the recruiter level is necessary to confirm indicators and provide corrective
action.
3. Analyzed MET Processing Log —— ——
a. Use of the log permits the CLT to review testing volume daily, permitting an
assessment of meeting mission requirements.
b. An abnormally large number of unqualified testers may indicate prospecting
in restricted market segments, rather than in the entire market place
c. Low test scores may also indicate a need to examine lead source mixes of
the RS and/or for individual recruiters.
d. Consistently high scores by the applicants of a single recruiter, when
accompanied by low deviations, may indicate the potential for prospecting
tips that should be shared with other recruiters.
e. It has been adequately demonstrated by analysis that "MET passed" volume
can be used to accurately predict contract volume in the following week.
f. The only acceptable methods of increasing testing volume are to either
increase prospecting or to more effectively convert those prospects being
processed to contracts. Work ethic and sales training issues must be
addressed as possible solutions for low testing volume.
g. The MET log is the pulse of production tools in the Rctg Co. It is the 1SG's
PL and is used much as the RS commander uses the RS PL. After test
qualifying, applicants will be tracked individually by the 1SG until a final
disposition is determined.
h. During DPR, ask RS commanders about the status of each MET qualified
applicant. Using the ARISS systems remote performance review feature the
CLT can check the status as well as the aggressiveness of follow-ups. There
must be evidence of RS commander involvement on the station commander
comments area of the PDR to show validation of attempts made to move test
qualified applicants to enlistment as quickly as possible.
4. Analyzed MEPS Processing List —— ——
a. The CLT will conduct daily tracking of mission accomplishments by using the
MEPS Processing List located at the TOS.
b. The MEPS Processing List gives you a snapshot of how the Rctg Co, RS,
and each of your recruiters are making progress toward mission
accomplishment for the current month. This list, coupled with a
daily/monthly/quarterly or YTD BOARDS production
report, located at the TOS, will provide you an accurate production status of
the Rctg Co and RS. It can easily be carried on the road and reviewed prior
to visiting a Recruiting Station.
5. Analyzed DEP/DTP Separation Log —— ——
3 - 390
STP 12-79R35-SM-TG
Performance Measures GO NO GO
a. DEP/DTP report is reviewed by the CLT to determine if RS maintenance of
the DEP and DTP pool is adequate, based on the incidence of DEP loss,
and referrals being aggressively sought and obtained. The purpose of such
analysis is to assist in formulating training and leadership actions designed
to result in reduced DEP and DTP loss, and increased production as a result
of referrals.
(1) A small number of DEP and DTP promotions should alert the CLT to
the need for greater emphasis on DEP and DTP follow-up activities.
The CLT must train RS commanders to increase referrals gained by
recruiters and more efficiently convert those referrals to contracts.
(2) Information pertaining to special options may be reviewed to determine
if emphasis is being placed on enlistment incentives during sales
interviews.
6. Analyzed Enlisted Recruiter Report Card —— ——
7. Analyzed Enlisted Conversion Data chart —— ——
a. Telephone prospecting. Trouble making appointments.
(1) Not establishing rapport. Find out as much as you can prior to calling
(i.e., Ask DEP members for current and past yearbooks, sports, and
other school activities; talk to other people who might know the
individual and can give you information).
(2) Not creating enough interest. You must ask fact-finding, open-ended
questions. This will assist you in uncovering the prospect's buying
motive.
(3) Not using the buying motive as a reason for asking for an appointment.
Don't forget you must sell the appointment not the Army.
(4) Not asking for the appointment, just flat not asking: "John, would
Monday at 4:00 p.m. be good or Tuesday at 6:00 p.m. be better for you
to talk about your buying motive? I'll see you at 4:00 p.m., if you have a
friend bring him or her with you."
(5) Not prospecting or prospecting at the wrong time (i.e., calling from your
senior LRL during school hours).
b. Appointment made to conducted. Trouble with no-shows.
(1) Not enough interest created during prospecting. (See trouble making
appointments.)
(2) Too much time between appointment made and conduct. (More than
72 hours increases no-show rate.) Follow-up 24 hours before
appointment to confirm.
(3) Overselling on the telephone. Telling the lead everything over the
telephone will leave little to talk about during the interview.
(4) Making the appointment just for the sake of satisfying a requirement.
(Not making a good appointment.) You know this person will be a no-
show, remember you have to follow-up on this person (time
management).
(5) Failure to confirm the time and place of appointment.
(6) Failure to confirm the prospect's mode of transportation to the place of
appointment.
(7) Failure to use effective listening when speaking with the prospect(s).
c. Appointment conducted to test. Low conversion from appointment conducted
to test.
(1) Did you get a commitment from the applicant? Did you ask the
applicant to enlist?
(2) Did you present features and benefits for all the applicant's buying
motives?
3 - 391
STP 12-79R35-SM-TG
Performance Measures GO NO GO
(3) Did you sell the Army and present facts, evidence, benefits, and
attempt to obtain an agreement for all the applicant's buying motives?
(4) Did you have a dominant buying motive to present facts, evidence,
benefits, and agreement (FEBA) or did you just assume what your
applicant wanted?
(5) Did you paint word pictures and put the prospect in the pictures?
(6) Did you ask a second and third time for the commitment?
(7) Did you schedule a follow-up appointment if you could not close the first
time?
(8) Did you use all the recruiting tools available to you (i.e., your sales
book, recruiting publicity items, other members of your recruiting team,
etc.?
(9) Did you provide the prospect with a benefits summary sheet?
d. Trouble getting applicants to pass the ASVAB
(1) Did you WINCAST or EST the applicant?
(2) Are you administering the WINCAST or EST properly?
(3) Are you using the probability tables for the WINCAST and EST?
(4) Are you prospecting in a quality market or just calling anyone to make
an appointment?
(5) Did you ask if the applicant was taking college preparatory courses or
general studies in school?
(6) Did you ask if the applicant took the Scholastic Aptitude Test or the
American College Test?
(7) Did you ask has the applicant previously taken the ASVAB/SASVAB?
e. Test pass to physical. Trouble getting applicants from test pass to physical.
(1) Did you just sell the test and hope the applicant would physical and
enlist later?
(2) Did you probe training, education, adventure, money, and service to
country; or did you assume you knew what the applicant wanted?
(3) Did you give the applicant a reason to physical and enlist (i.e., did you
satisfy the applicant's dominant buying motive and properly FEBA it)?
(4) Did you close the sale and ask for the enlistment or did you assume the
applicant would physical and enlist? Did you get a commitment?
(5) Did you fail to overcome the applicant's objection to physical and enlist?
(6) Did you take too much time from the applicant's test date to physical?
(Did you give the applicant too much time to think about his or her
decision and change his or her mind)?
f. Physical to physically qualified. Trouble getting applicants to pass the
physical.
(1) Did you properly pre-screen the applicant using DD Form 2807-2
(Applicant Medical Pre-screening Form)?
(2) Did you have medical documentation for all cases where an individual
was hospitalized or received treatment from a doctor?
(3) Did you check with parents to clear up any questions about physical
problems the applicant might have had?
(4) Did you advise applicant about MEPS processing procedures (i.e.,
consults, blood pressure, high protein, bring glasses, refraction, etc.)?
(5) Did you check thoroughly for drug and/or alcohol abuse?
(6) Did you send an applicant you knew wasn't qualified to physical?
(7) Did you use Dial-A-Medic for questionable cases? (Dial-A-Medic is a
telephone contact at each MEPS that reaches the medical section. It is
designed to provide guidance to recruiters pertaining to medical
questions.)
g. Physically qualified to enlisted. Trouble getting applicants from physically
qualified to enlisted.

Conditions: You are assigned as a recruiting company first sergeant. One of your soldiers is alleged or
suspected to have engaged in a prohibited activity established by the U.S. Army recruiting command.
You also have access to:
Standards: Advise soldiers on legal activities and administrative actions that could result from known or
suspected violations while reporting all offenses to the first commissioned officer in the chain of
command.
Performance Steps
1. Understands Reports of Investigation (Recruiting Improprieties), UR 601-45: The term "Report of
Investigation" is used in USAREC to denote an investigation involving a recruiting impropriety as
defined in UR 601-45, para 2-2 and 2-3. Recruiting impropriety investigations are monitored by the
Recruiting Improprieties Branch at HQ, USAREC and are separate from other misconduct
investigations. Detailed investigators should be experienced (UR 601-45, para 3-4c).
2. Understands Commander's Inquiries or Informal AR 15-6 Investigations: Commander's inquiries are
similar to informal AR 15-6 investigations and are commonly used in USAREC to investigate other
misconduct not involving recruiting improprieties. Typical commander's inquiries in USAREC
include unauthorized relationship and other sexual misconduct cases (i.e. recruiter partying with or
having sex with applicant), and misuse of government credit card, telephones, etc.
3. Understands the Investigation Process: USAREC Pamphlet 27-65 contains detailed guidance for
investigating officers to use in investigating recruiting improprieties, other recruiter misconduct under
UR 600-25, or any other matter for which an internal investigation has been directed. It is not a
lengthy document and should be studied carefully before each investigation, whether the
investigating officer is experienced or not. Consistent use of this valuable reference should result in
quality investigations and eliminate commonly-encountered problems such as the following:
a. Missing chronologies: The chronology frequently summarizes the key events and the essential
factual basis of the matter under investigation better than any narrative description ever could.
Constructing the chronology requires the author to establish which events are the key events,
and to organize his or her thinking in the course of establishing the sequence. One key event
sometimes missed is the precise complaint or event which led to the discovery of the
allegations and the initiation of the investigation.
3 - 421
STP 12-79R35-SM-TG
Performance Steps
b. Inadequate analysis: Reports of investigation sometimes reach or state conclusions without an
obvious analytical basis in the available documentary evidence. Investigators should
remember that conclusions must be based on evidence "in the record," i.e., documentary
evidence contained in the tabbed enclosures in the report. Investigators sometimes learn
matters during interviews that are not reduced to writing, but later remembered during
preparation of the report and included in the report in support of a conclusion or finding. In rare
cases the analysis just doesn't make sense or assumes information not readily apparent to the
reader. Consider the following rule of thumb: Never write the report so you can be understood;
instead, write so that you can never be misunderstood.
c. Resolve conflicting testimony: Particularly in sexual misconduct cases, and not infrequently in
recruiting impropriety cases, the crucial issue involves only two witnesses - the applicant and
the recruiter - telling mutually inconsistent stories without abundant external corroborating
evidence. The outcome is going to depend to an extent on the investigator's assessment of the
credibility of the witnesses. This assessment can, and indeed should, include the investigator's
observations of the demeanor of the witnesses, such as body language clues to truthfulness,
and other visual information that will not otherwise be available to commanders and reviewers
unless reduced to writing in some fashion. While such information may not always be enough
to support a finding by a preponderance, it is nonetheless important and useful information that
the investigator is uniquely situated to obtain.
d. Explain all investigatory steps taken. Occasionally, a report will fail to discuss an investigative
avenue that seems to be suggested by other evidence, and which was in fact pursued without
success. A negative result is often as useful and informative as a positive result, and a brief
mention of the line of investigation and its results may forestall a request from a reviewer for
this information, with the attendant delay.
e. Illegible, or marginally legible, handwritten statements: Good penmanship is an acquired art,
regrettably not acquired by everyone, including investigating officers. Writing that is hard or
impossible to decipher adds an unnecessary burden for commanders and reviewers, and
increases the chances that important information will be overlooked.
4. BJA Support: Supporting BJAs can provide legal advice at all stages of the investigation, to the IO
and to the command. Their reviews can identify defects at an early stage and minimize the need for
reinvestigation. At the same time, the BJAs have not been tasked with management of the RI
investigation program, so they should not be relied upon to oversee and manage open
investigations.
5. Understands reporting: Commanders must report certain misconduct "without delay" to Security
Branch, HQ USAREC. See UR 380-4. THIS INCLUDES ALL ALLEGATIONS OF SEXUAL
HARASSMENT AND SEXUAL MISCONDUCT, TO INCLUDE UNAUTHORIZED RELATIONSHIPS.
6. Understands Jurisdiction (UR 27-2)
a. Knows Court-martial convening authorities are:
(1) CG exercises general court-martial convening authority (GCMCA) for administrative
purposes, but does not convene courts-martial.
(2) GCMCA for courts-martial will be exercised by the respective supporting installation under

(3) Brigade commanders exercise special court-martial convening authority (SPCMCA).
(4) Battalion commanders exercise summary court-martial convening authority (SCMCA).
(5) 3d Brigade Commander is SPCMCA for HQ, USAREC and RSB (will change to
Commander, Area Support Group)
(6) Courts-martial action will not be initiated without prior coordination with SJA.
b. Handles service connected incidents.
(1) Soldier tried in civilian court ordinarily will not be tried by court-martial or punished under
Article 15 for the same offense (AR 27-10, para 4-2).
(2) Commanders will report felony-level offenses to the servicing Criminal Investigation
Command office (see Table 2, UR 27-2 for list of offices).

2-2, and 2-3 (sexual misconduct, fraternization, and sexual harassment).
(4) Only field grade commanders may impose Article 15 for drug offenses, drunk driving
offenses, and other violations of UR 600-25 not limited to brigade commanders.

9. Is knowledgeable about Administrative reductions
a. Mandatory reduction to E1 for civilian conviction and sentence to confinement in excess of one
year
b. Commanders have discretion in other civilian conviction cases.
10. Knows all drunk driving incidents must be reported on a serious incident report to USAREC Security
Branch AND to the USAREC SJA office.
11. knows a completed USAREC Form 943, a copy of the police report (or other evidence) and a
statement of duty performance should be forwarded to USAREC SJA office within 14 days. The
SJA office will use the information to prepare a general officer reprimand for DCG signature.
12. Knows the Battalion Commander should ensure that all GOV driving privileges are immediately
suspended when:
a. Soldier is charged with drunk driving or driving under influence of drugs; or
b. Soldier has a blood alcohol level of .05 percent or in violation of state law, whichever
is lower, whether or not the soldier was charged; or
c. A soldier refuses to take a lawfully requested chemical test; or
d. The commander determines that the soldier drove while intoxicated, whether or not any
charges are filed or dismissed.
13. knows the suspension of GOV driving privileges will be imposed whether or not the soldier's civilian
driver's license was suspended.
14. Understands the suspension remains in effect until final disposition of the charges, return of any
state driving privileges that were suspended or revoked, and the battalion commander determines
that the soldier's driving presents no risk stemming from alcohol abuse.

15. Ensured coordination with the supporting ADAPCP office for their assessment of the soldier or
referral to a local program.
16. Knows the procedure: Battalion commander initiates relief ("involuntary reassignment") by notifying
the soldier in writing of the intent to relieve. After the soldier is given an opportunity to rebut, the
case is forwarded to the brigade for action.
17. knows the Brigade commander has the authority (subject to HQ, USAREC review) to approve the
following relief actions:
a. Unqualified.
b. Ineffective.
c. Ineffective new.
d. Unsuitable reliefs except recruiting improprieties.
18. Knows that only the CG, USAREC may approve reliefs based on recruiting improprieties.

required by the applicable provision of AR 601-1. Commanders must also ensure that the
documentary evidence provided supports the basis cited for the relief.
20. Knows the Recruiter Administrative actions initial procedures.
a. Normally, the recruiting battalion commander initiates administrative separation actions (unlike
mainstream army where company level commander initiates action).
b. CG, USAREC is the separation authority for all Ch. 14-12c(2) drug cases and all actions which
authorize issuance of an other than honorable (OTH) discharge
c. Soldiers with 6 or more years total service are entitled to a board hearing.
d. A soldier may submit a conditional waiver of the board (i.e. "I waive my board in return for an
honorable discharge"). It is up to the separation authority (usually the CG) to approve the
waiver or refer the case to a board. Chain of command makes recommendations.
e. Soldiers being chaptered under chapters 5-8 (parenthood), 5-13 ( personality disorder), 5-17,
(other designated physical or mental conditions) 11 (entry level), 13 (unsatisfactory
performance), and 14-12a and b (pattern of misconduct), Ch 18 (failure to meet body fat
standards) must have at least one DA Form 4856 (General Counseling Form) with the "1-16"
language prior to the final act involved in the separation. "Sample" counseling language is as
follows:
NOTE: If you continue your unsatisfactory conduct or performance, you may be separated from the Army
under the provisions of AR 635-200 before the completion of your enlistment. Such separation can result
in a characterization of service as Honorable, General (under honorable conditions), or under Other Than
Honorable Conditions. If you receive a General or Under Other Than Honorable characterization of
service, you may encounter substantial prejudice in civilian life and loss of veteran benefits. If you serve
less than two years on active duty, you will receive no federal benefits based on being a veteran no
matter what characterization of service you receive.
21. Knows Chapter 14 (Misconduct) and what to do
a. 79R personnel relieved as unsuitable must be processed for separation under Ch. 14 prior to

1. Evaluate current and past DEP/DTP programs
a. Analyze loss rates for the current and past 2-years
(1) Identify separation trends (fail to grad, apathy, DAT etc)
(2) Determine which stations (past or present) account for a disproportionate number of
losses
(3) Determine other trends, i.e., number of losses interviewed initially in the RS, number of
fail-to-grad from a particular school, overweight, failure to attend DEP/DTP functions etc.
(4) Determine number of current DEP/DTP members that share the same risk factors, as in
(3) above, and consider coding them "amber" on the DEP log.
b. Decide if immediate changes to the company DEP/DTP management practices will reduce
losses:
(1) Increased telephone and face to face follow-up
(2) Energizing DEP functions
(3) Closer Company Leadership Team interaction with all DEP/DTPs processed by stations
with higher-than-average loss rates
(4) More company leadership involvement at the guidance shop with "hard sells"
(5) Stress Pre-Basic training task lists to increase promotions.
(6) Increased DEP/DTP referrals to increase promotions
(7) Ensure concurrent admissions is encouraged
2. Analyze DEP log (UF 611) data to further identify trends and realize improvements as follows:
a. Determine which stations has the highest current DEP loss rate, and consider this data when
updating the status block on UF 611
b. Determine which mission categories historically separate at a higher rate and account for this
when planning follow-up action and tutorials.
c. Compare contract-to-ship dates. The larger the window, the more likely a loss will occur.
