Who is the key range billet holder responsible for the overall conduct of training on the range?

The key range billet holder responsible for the overall conduct of training on the range is the Officer in Charge (OIC). This individual is crucial for ensuring that all training activities are executed safely and effectively. The OIC oversees the planning and organization of range operations, making sure that proper protocols are followed and that safety measures are implemented thoroughly.

The OIC has the authority to make critical decisions regarding training procedures, resource allocation, and ensuring compliance with regulations. They coordinate with other personnel, such as the Range Safety Officer and instructors, to facilitate a comprehensive training environment while promoting safety. This leadership role is fundamental in maintaining the integrity of training exercises and preserving the safety of all participants on the range.

In contrast, while the Range Safety Officer plays an essential role in enforcing safety measures, their responsibilities are focused specifically on safety aspects rather than the overall conduct of training. The Assistant Instructor supports training but does not have the same level of authority as the OIC. The Range Coordinator may help with logistics and organization but does not hold the primary responsibility for the overall conduct of training and safety oversight.
