The 'ends' component of the Army Strategy is translated into what?

The 'ends' component of the Army Strategy is translated into what?

• A. Concepts
• B. Doctrine
• C. Policies
• D. Capabilities

Answer: (A)

Ends are the desired outcomes the Army aims to achieve. Translating those ends into a Concept provides the broad approach and operational idea for how to pursue and shape operations to reach the target state. It bridges what is wanted with how we will conduct campaigns and activities, serving as the framework that guides further development into doctrine, policies, and the acquisition of capabilities. Doctrine describes the established methods for employing forces, policies set rules and constraints, and capabilities are the actual resources and means available. Concepts, as the bridge from ends to action, explain the overall approach to achieving the end state.
