Fact sheets/backgrounders/whitepapers
Fact sheets, backgrounders, whitepapers and other information products will add more in-depth information to the news and trends that appear in TRADOC News Service.
Explanation
Fact sheets describe the basics: who, what, when, where, why and how of an issue, organization, special event or important change. Concisely written, fact sheets contain quick-read information for leaders, Soldiers, the general public and journalists.
Backgrounders contain more detail than fact sheets; they are informative while being neutral and factual. Backgrounders report on current issues and trends of importance to TRADOC's mission.
Whitepapers, or position papers, describe TRADOC's position on issues and the command's rationale for this stand on the issue.
