The 41 IBCT will conduct training at Gowan Field, Idaho August 4, 2008 until 19 August 2008. The contractor is responsible to ensure all services are provided to fulfill the contract during this training period for 14 calendar days from 4-17 August 2008. The Government will provide the training site environment to include a training village consisting of a city hall, mosque, medical facility and 12-18 villager houses. The village is constructed from conex-like containers with faux stucco siding and miscellaneous Arab effects and signage to reflect a realistic feel for 41 IBCT soldiers being trained. The Government will provide sleeping tents, subsistence, and transportation within the Training Areas to contractor employees at FOB PIONEER. The village site is approximately 5 miles from FOB PIONEER. Role Players provide essential training experience to soldiers preparing for combat operations in varying conditions. Conditions may vary from coordinating an opportunity to meet with local leaders, a time to provide medical support to local children, assessments of the attitudes of the population in a certain area; de-escalate a situation by communicating properly with local religious leaders, or directing both combatants and non-combatants during steady state operations. 2.
