I would stick to the DTC/JTC just refresh it and emphisize the parts they need work on. The patrol system needs to be done on a regular basis at every wed night meeting..Giving the boys the responsibility is the hardest part for men to do. It takes time and patience but is worth the investement.

The best leader is the leader who has the boys do the job at hand. (this does not work for Ranger Kids)

If your not using your Patrol quatermaster, patrol guide, assistant guide and scribe each week ... your not doing the patrol system.

Yes this means they do attendance, they do points, they do room setup, they do the opening. They do the patrol corners.

We as leaders just make sure it gets done. That is the hard part. Sitting back and watch a boy fumble through something we could do in seconds... but thats not the point..it's the reaching, and teaching and keeping that is our goal.

As a Sr. Commander of a outpost of 100 men and boys it took work to keep them in patrols, keep them working as a patrol. The best thing is teach the chain of command... work through your patrol guides as much as possible. If someone needs something teach them to go to the patrol guide. It takes the right people. Not everyone is a leader. Most can follow though.

Subject: [RR] RR/ Patrol Staff Training Ideas. Tks for your help!


Hello fellow Rangers,

I'm planning on holding a mini-training course for my DR Patrol Staff (PGs & APGs) + Op. Scribe & Op. Quartermaster. They were recently elected and went through Basic DTC last year, but I feel that these guys need some more training and direction as to how to correctly carry on their responsabilities in their own patrols. I don't want to make it appear as if I expect the same from them as I expect from the adult leaders, but I want them to be and feel like real leaders, Junior Leaders. What topics would you include in a two hour training event? I also want to make it very interactive (put aside the lecture mode). I have a few ideas from NTC, but I want to put it at the boy level.

 Any ideas? Bring 'em on! Thanks in advance.

 Ranger blessings,

 Manuel H.
