If he really is a cherry LT, he needs to start learning yesterday how to use AKO, BCKS, CALL and the rest of the info resources available to him.

I've already provided a link to a specific BCKS community that should be of use. As a retiree, I no longer have access to CALL (Tom, since you are the CALL rep on SWC, I hold you responsible for that), so I can't say what is currently available.

I also recommend the AKO KC folder CENTCOM IED Training, where you will find the Joint IED Defeat Task Force ppt brief IED Defeat - Staff Process (large file - 123 slides). Ambush Teams are discussed within the brief.
I agree, although getting access to the SIPR will also provide a wealth of information to guide other stateside prep as well and allow him to ask the right questions of his commander and/or A/S-2 to get answers when he's in country.
