CHAPTER 1
Introduction 1-1. General: This manual identifies the individualMilitary Occupational Specialty (MOS) training requirements forSoldiers in MOS 42R9J in skill levels 1 and 2. Commanders,trainers, and Soldiers should use it to plan, conduct, and evaluateindividual training in units. This manual is the primary MOSreference to support the self-development and training of Soldiers.The tasks related to musical performance in this manual are notmeant to teach a Soldier to be a musician. The tasks serve as aguide for leaders to evaluate performance and to ensure Soldiers inskill levels 1 and 2 understand their musical responsibilities.Other publications in the references will allow Soldiers andleaders to learn more about specific technical skills related tomusical performance. Units should make every attempt to stock thesereferences in their music library. Other skill level 1 and 2critical tasks that are not available for reference in theSoldier's Manual of Common Tasks (STP 21-1-SMCT and STP 21-24-SMCT)have been added to this manual. Those tasks are categorized intotwo areas: administrative tasks and tactical tasks. Use this manualwith intent to establish effective training plans and programs thatintegrate Soldier, leader and collective tasks. Soldier's Manual ofCommon Tasks (STP 21-1-SMCT and STP 21-24-SMCT), Army Training andEvaluation Programs (ARTEP) and FM 7-1, Battle Focused Trainingshould be referenced during training plan development. 1-2.Commander's Responsibilities: It is the responsibility of thecommander to integrate individual and collective training in theunit’s training plan. The training plan located in Chapter 2 ofthis STP should be utilized to support integration, train-up, andsustainment training of all band members in MOS 42R9J. 1-3.Trainer's Responsibilities: Training individual tasks to standardand relating this training to collective mission essential tasks isthe NCO trainer's responsibility. The first-line supervisors arethe principal trainers in the band because they directly supervisethe Soldiers. It is the trainer's responsibility to tell theSoldiers which tasks they must be able to perform. The trainer mustalso tell the Soldiers which tasks need further training. Trainersuse the steps below to plan and evaluate training: • Plan thetraining. The NCO determines which tasks need to be trained basedon the commander's
training strategy. Training for specific tasks can usually beintegrated or conducted concurrently with other training. Thetrainer should identify individual tasks that can be trained andevaluated concurrently with collective task training andevaluation.
• Gather the training references and materials. This informationis listed in each task summary.
Additional references are provided in the References section. •Train each Soldier. Show the Soldier how to do the task to standardand explain step-by-step how
to do the task. • Check each Soldier. Evaluate how well eachSoldier performs each task. These evaluations may
be conducted during individual training sessions or whileevaluating individual proficiency of unit collective task training.An evaluation guide has been provided, for each task in thismanual, to help the trainer conduct year-round, hands-onevaluations of critical tasks. The training plan containsinformation to use as a guide in determining how often to evaluatea Soldier's task performance.
• Record the results. The leader book referred to in FM 7-1,Appendix B, is used to record task
performance, and gives the leader total flexibility with respectto methods of documentation.

• Retrain and evaluate. Work with each Soldier until he canperform the task to specific standards. Well-planned, integratedtraining increases the professional competence of each Soldier andcontributes to the development of an efficient unit. The NCO orfirst-line supervisor is a vital link in the conduct oftraining.
1-4. Soldier's Responsibilities: Each Soldier is responsible forperforming individual tasks. The first-line supervisor identifiesindividual tasks based on the unit's mission essential task list(METL). The Soldier must perform the task to the standard listed inthe Soldier's Manual (SM). If a Soldier has a question about how todo the task or which tasks in this manual he must perform, it isthe Soldier's responsibility to ask the first-line supervisor forclarification. The first-line supervisor knows how to perform eachtask and can direct the Soldier to appropriate training materials.1-5. NCO Self-Development and the Soldier's Manual:Self-development is one of the key components of the leaderdevelopment program. It is a planned, progressive, and sequentialprogram followed by leaders to enhance and sustain their militarycompetencies. It consists of individual study, research,professional reading, practice, and self-assessment. Under theself-development concept, the NCO, as an Army professional, has theresponsibility to remain current in all phases of the MOS. The SMis the primary source for maintaining MOS proficiency. Anotherimportant resource for NCO self-development is the ArmyCorrespondence Course Program (ACCP). For information on enrollingin this program and a list of courses, refer to DA Pamphlet 350-59,www.atsc.army.mil/accp/aipd.htm or write to: Army Institute ofProfessional Development, U.S. Army Training Support Center, ATTN:ATIC-IPS, Newport News, VA 23628. 1-6. Task Summaries: Tasksummaries outline the wartime performance requirements of eachcritical task in the Soldier's Manual. They provide the Soldier andthe trainer with the information necessary to prepare, conduct, andevaluate critical task training. As a minimum, task summariesinclude information you must know, and the skills that you mustperform to standard for each task. The format for the tasksummaries included in this SM is as follows: • Task Title. The tasktitle identifies the action to be performed.
• Task Number. The task number is a 10-digit number thatidentifies each task or skill. Include this
task number, along with the task title, in any correspondencerelating to the task. • Conditions. The task conditions identifyall the equipment, tools, references, job aids, and
supporting personnel which the Soldier needs to perform the taskin wartime. This section identifies any environmental conditionssuch as visibility, temperature, and wind that can alter taskperformance. This section also identifies any specific cues orevents that trigger task performance.
• Standards. The task standards describe how well and to whatlevel you must perform a task under
wartime conditions. Standards are typically described in termsof accuracy, completeness, and speed.
• Training and Evaluation. This section may contain all or partof the following: training information
outline, evaluation preparation subsection, and evaluationguide. The training information outline includes detailed traininginformation. The evaluation preparation subsection indicatesnecessary modifications to task performance in order to train andevaluate a task that cannot be trained to the wartime standardunder wartime conditions. It may also include special training andevaluation preparation instructions to accommodate thesemodifications and any instructions that should be given to theSoldier before evaluation. The evaluation guide identifies thespecific actions, known as performance measures, that the Soldiermust do to successfully complete the task. These actions are listedin a "GO/NO-GO" format for easy evaluation. Each evaluation guidecontains a feedback statement that indicates the requirements (forexample, number of performance measures "passed") for receiving a"GO" on the evaluation.

• References. This section identifies references that providemore detailed and thorough explanations
of task performance requirements. Additionally, some tasksummaries include safety statements and notes. Safety statements(danger, warning, caution) alert users to the possibility ofimmediate death, personal injury, or damage to equipment. Notesprovide a small, extra supportive explanation or hint relative tothe performance measures. 1-7. MOS Training Plan: Informationnecessary for planning training for musicians in MOS 42R9J islisted in the training plan in Chapter 2 of this manual. Leadersshould use this plan in conjunction with the Soldier's Manual ofCommon Tasks (STP 21-1-SMCT and STP 21-24-SMCT), Army Training andEvaluation Programs (ARTEP) and FM 7-1, Battle Focused Training todevelop an individual training plan for Soldiers in their unit. Thetraining plan: • Identifies subject areas that must be trained.
• Identifies the critical tasks for each subject area.
• Specifies where musicians are initially trained on eachtask.
• Specifies the references needed to train the tasks.
• Recommends how often each task should be trained to sustainproficiency. 1-8. Training Support: This manual includes thefollowing additional training support information: • Appendix A.Swing Rhythms
• Appendix B. Improvisation • Glossary. The glossary, whichfollows the last appendix, is a single comprehensive list ofacronyms,
abbreviations, definitions, and letter symbols. • References.Professional references (books and web sites) have been listed toaid in technical skill
development. This listing is not intended to be all-inclusive,and some of the sites have extensive links pages. No endorsem*nt byany government agency is implied in the inclusion of any links onthis page.
Reserve Components (Army National Guard and Army Reserve): Alltasks in this manual are applicable to both the Active and ReserveArmy Soldiers. However, some tasks may require modification due todifferences of equipment, facilities and available trainingtime.

Training Guide
2-1. General. The training plan identifies the essentialcomponents of a unit training plan for individual training. Unitshave different training needs and requirements based on differencesin environment, location, equipment, dispersion, and similarfactors. Therefore, the training plan should be used as a guide forconducting unit training and not a rigid standard. The plan isdesigned to assist the commander in preparing a unit training planwhich satisfies integration, cross training, training up, andsustainment training requirements for Soldiers in this MOS. Thetraining plan shows the critical task grouped by task commonalityinto subject areas.

Conditions: Given a clarinet, adequate warm up time and areference pitch, tune your instrument to the given pitch.Standards: Tuned instrument to within (±)5 cents of the referencepitch within thirty seconds. Performance Steps
1. Listen to the reference pitch. a. Best pitch for tuning theclarinet is concert B flat. b. Tuning to one note does not ensuregood intonation throughout the full range of the instrument.
2. Play the same pitch on your instrument at equivalent volumeto reference pitch.
3. Listen for pulsations against reference pitch. Pulsationsindicate performed pitch is sharp or flat to reference pitch.
4. Adjust instrument to match reference pitch. a. If theperformed pitch is sharp, lengthen the instrument by pulling outthe tuning barrel to lower
the performed pitch. b. If the performed pitch is flat, shortenthe instrument by pushing in the tuning barrel to raise the
performed pitch. c. The pulsations will be faster the furtheryou are from the reference pitch. The pulsations will
stop when you have matched the performed pitch to the referencepitch.
5. Complete steps one through four within thirty seconds.Evaluation Preparation: Setup: Ensure that all materials requiredin the Conditions statement are available to the Soldier. Evaluatethis task during individual or collective training. The evaluatorwill need a room free from outside noise, a stopwatch, a referencepitch and a tuner to measure the Soldier's pitch accuracy. Theevaluator will inform the Soldier of the reference that will besounded (e.g. "B" flat) and will then sound the reference pitch atfive-second intervals, allowing the pitch to sound for fiveseconds. The Soldier will listen to the pitch, play it, and makenecessary adjustments to match the reference pitch. Allow theSoldier to up to 30 seconds to complete this task. At the end of 30seconds, ask the Soldier to play the pitch. Check the tuner toverify the Soldier is within (±)5 cents of the reference pitch.Brief the Soldier: "You will have 30 seconds to tune yourinstrument within (±)5 cents of the reference pitch. The referencepitch will be sounded at five-second intervals. You may adjust yourinstrument as often as needed until you match pitch with thereference pitch or time has expired. At the end of 30 seconds, Iwill have you play the pitch and verify if you have met thestandard."

Decontaminate Equipment Using ABC-M11 Decontamination Apparatus031-507-1002
Conditions: Given an area of chemical contamination on a vehicleor equipment. Your supervisor directs you to decontaminate with anempty ABC-M11 decontaminating apparatus, two spare nitrogencylinders, and a 1-1/3-quart can of DS2. You are in MOPP4.Standards: Cover specified contaminated areas by spraying liquidfrom the ABC-M11. Standards are not degraded due to performance inMOPP4. Performance Steps
1. Fill the M11 apparatus. WARNING: Wear rubber gloves toprotect the hands when handling DS2. (For training purposes, use0.5 ounce of corrosion inhibitor and water.) a. Unscrew the sprayhead from the container. b. Pour the contents of a 1-1/3-quart canof DS2 into the container through the opening in the top
of the apparatus. If filling from a large container, pour in DS2to the level of the yellow line marked "Fill Line." (The end of thecontainer neck inside the container body should be used as a fillguide since it is at the same level as the yellow fill line.)
c. Ensure the container's preformed packing (rubber washer) isin place on the spray head and that it is in good condition. Screwthe spray head firmly into the opening in the container.
2. Pressurize the M11 apparatus. a. Withdraw the captive safetypin (Figure 1); this will break the safety seal. b. Rest thecontainer on a solid surface and slowly raise the handle, whileholding the cylinder
steady in place, until the locking pin springs out and locks thehandle in place (Figure 2). When the handle is raised, thenitrogen-filled container is punctured and the containerpressurized.
WARNING: Do not use DS2 to decontaminate personnel. It irritatesthe skin and eyes. If DS2 does get on your skin, blot it off andrinse with water.
3. Decontaminate equipment. a. Spray DS2 by depressing the thumblever (Figure 3). b. Spray parts of vehicles that are most likelyto be touched or used, such as door handles,
steering wheels, controls, seats, dashboards, levers, gasolinecaps, and tools. Hold the apparatus upright so that as much liquidas possible is forced from the container. Remember, the contents ofone full container can be discharged in about 30 seconds ofcontinuous spraying time.
c. After the first nitrogen-filled cylinder is expended, shakethe container to determine if it is empty. Use a secondnitrogen-filled cylinder to expel remaining contents.
WARNING: Place handle in lowered position before installing thenitrogen-filled cylinder to prevent premature puncturing of thecylinder and expulsion of nitrogen out of the spray. d. To use thespare nitrogen-filled cylinder, depress the handle-locking pin andlower the handle.
Raise the thumb lever and push the expended cylinder out of thespray head body. Discard the expended cylinder. Insert the sparenitrogen-filled cylinder into the spray head body, neck down.Release the thumb lever and repressurize the apparatus, repeatingstep 2b.
e. When the charge is expended, depress the handle-locking pinand lower the handle. If you have completed spraying, reinstall thecaptive safety pin and replace the apparatus in the mountingbracket. If not, repeat steps 1 through 3 until you have completedoperator's spraydown of the vehicle or equipment.
