Marine Corps Reference Publication 7-20A.3, Simulation Training Guide, provides guidance for Marine leaders on how to plan and conduct simulation in support of training. It introduces leaders to the purpose, value, and capabilities of Marine Corps simulations to increase opportunities for achieving cognitively oriented training "repetitions and sets" that mentally prepare Marines for live training. Training must be both mentally and physically demanding. Addressing the cognitive, moral, and ethical aspects of war through repetition and intellectual rigor is critical. Reinforcing these key attributes through situational decision-making in simulated contexts while learning and refining tactics, techniques, and procedures can directly support a skills-based continuum of standardsbased live training.
