The research reported in this volume had three major objectives: (1) Improved understanding of the concept of combat effectiveness; (2) Development of algorithms (procedures) for projecting combat effectiveness; and (3) Exploration of the implications of combat effictiveness for readiness. As used in this report, the concept 'combat effectiveness' referes to the ability of a unit accomplish a military mission. As such, combat effectiveness refers to performance in a hostile environment, as distinguished from the concept of 'readiness,' which refers to a state of preparedness prior to entering the hostile environment.
