This move away from conventional trench warfare has led to a major rethink in the tasking and training of Army personnel. An important lesson that has been learnt from Afghanistan (in population engagement and counterinsurgency) and from peacekeeping operations is that, by utilising the intrinsic characteristics of members such as gender, race (native language proficiency and ethnicity) and pre-Defence life experiences, engagement and information gathering can be increased and thus overall capability is enhanced. By eliminating the need to provide training in these areas and by drawing on these individual strengths, these features can be a useful and cost-neutral means of improving tactical capability. This was highlighted by Lance Corporal Poppy Wenham who was deployed to Bougainville as a driver and signaller and who was utilised in patrols as she spoke Pidgin (the native language) and could easily engage with the local population.
