Questions and answers
What is Army reconstitution?
Reconstitution is an operation that commanders plan and implement to restore units to a desired level of combat effectiveness commensurate with mission requirements and available resources. (paragraph 1-1)
What are the three elements of reconstitution?
Reconstitution has three elements: assessment, reorganization, and regeneration. (paragraph 1-4)
What does reorganization involve?
At any level, reorganization is accomplished internal to an organization and does not require significant resources from higher echelons to accomplish. (paragraph 1-6)
What does regeneration require before a unit returns to combat?
Personnel and materiel must be integrated into the formation and the unit must be trained before being employed in combat. (paragraph 1-7)
Where does regeneration usually occur?
Because of the time required for regeneration activities and the space and resources needed for units to train, regeneration usually occurs at the corps level and above, out of contact with enemy forces. (paragraph 1-7)
