First Earth Battallion

The FIRST EARTH BATTALION was called into being during the early 1980's by TASK FORCE DELTA at the Army War College to give the Army a way to see its full potential as an instrument of the future.

The charge was "to think the unthinkable."

This mythological force has functioned as a free service think tank to the Army ever since. As an instrument of creative thinking it has found its way into various current Army projects. Most recently, principle Academy Fellow Jim Channon, Lt. Colonel, US Army (Ret.), visually summarized the OBJECTIVE FORCE WARRIOR findings and teamed up with Army Chief of Staff Pete Schoomaker to open the mindset of future Army leaders at the School of Advanced Military Studies (SAMS) course at Command and General Staff College (CGSC). Jim also helped shape the future vision efforts of the new Secretary of the Army using his summarizing strategic graphics techniques.

Jim has led the World Business Academy fellows for three years on a quest to create the most positive future vision for the planet for the next 100 years. There is a direct correspondence between the academy's vision and focus on the "whole planet" and the efforts of the world's most effective action agent and institution, the United States Army.
