The '''S-3 Operations Staff Section''' is responsible for all force structure, manpower, personnel, and administration requirements for the Regiment. The branch provides recommendations to command staff in resourcing current manpower requirements and in determining future organizational structure. S-1 also advises and assists command staff in the management of personnel, personnel replacements, discipline, morale and welfare by developing personnel and administrative programs, policies, and procedures to support the commander's goals and objectives.
The '''S-3 Operations Staff Section''' is the Staff Section responsible for running the schools and training involved in running the battalion. The many schools and qualification courses along with Entry Level Training (ELT) are important for the running and future of the unit. The S-3 staff's training ensures that new recruits joining the unit are imparted with the correct standard on the field and off.

In the 2nd Ranger Battalion, S-1 is similarly responsible for the administration of personnel. Material contributions are in record keeping, organization and policy. Unique to our virtual community, S-1 also has responsibility for the visual representation of each solider as a unique individual, through standards conformant avatars and signatures. S-1 is divided into four sub-departments: Personnel, Awards & Decorations, Recruitment, Retention.




S-3 primarily runs BCT and RASP, the two main parts of ELT that feed new recruits into the unit. S-3 Operations also runs and maintains the instructors for qualifications such as Combat Life Saver, Designated Marksman, Land Navigation, Airborne, and Air Assault. Specific schools ran by the S-3 Operations staff duties include Sniper School, Ranger School, Pathfinder School, and Sapper School. S-3 Operations instructors and cadre are expected to understand their subjects completely with a level of fluency that allows them to teach and bring up others to act as instructors. They are subject matter experts in all areas of their assigned training(s).
