FRONTLINE U.S. Army Forces Command August 21, 2015 | Volume V, Issue 32 “I think we have to change the tone of the SHARP program... The goal is success - an environment conducive for everyone to succeed, where everyone works together and prospers” – SMA Daniel A. Dailey Sergeant Major of the Army Aug. 6, 2015, Fort Irwin, Ca. Senior Leaders SMA: SHARP supports success On Point Sexual Harassment/Assault Response and Prevention program The Army SHARP Program’s mission is to reduce with an aim toward eliminating sexual harassment and sexual assault within the Army Family through robust prevention and training, direct leader engagement in support of the SHARP Program, and consistent team coordination that can inspire trust in the SHARP response system. Along with continuing to strengthen the Army’s culture through the “I. A.M. Strong” prevention campaign, the Army SHARP Program is also incorporating principles of the Sergeant Major of the Army’s “Not in My Squad” initiative into the program by placing a greater emphasis on the empowerment of first-line leaders at the squad level of the Army. By Fort Benning Public Affairs FORT BENNING, Georgia (Aug. 17, 2015) -- The U.S. Army Maneuver Center of Excellence announced that 94 men and two women met the standards of the Swamp Phase and will graduate the Ranger Course, Aug. 21. Approximately 34 percent of students who enter Ranger School, recycle at least one phase of the course, adding to the student’s physical and mental fatigue. Male and female Ranger stu- dents completed the phases of Ranger School and have proven their determination, physical stamina, and mental toughness to succeed. All have earned the right to wear the Ranger Tab. “Congratulations to all of our new Rangers. Each Ranger School graduate has shown the physical and mental toughness to successfully lead organizations at any level. This course has proven that every Soldier, regardless of gender, can achieve his or her full potential. We owe Sol- diers the opportunity to serve successfully in any position where they are qualified and capable, and we continue to look for ways to select, train, and retain the best Soldiers to meet our nation’s needs,” Army Secretary John M. McHugh said. During the course, students learn how to op- erate in three different environments: woodlands in Fort Benning, mountainous terrain in Dahlone- ga, Georgia, and coastal swamp in Eglin Air Force Base, Florida. Two women received a passing grade in the mountains during platoon level combat patrols and moved on to the Swamp Phase, Aug. 1. The two women also met the standards of the Swamp Phase, proficiently leading waterborne platoon level combat patrols and will earn the Ranger Tab, Aug. 21.
