Interview with Maj William (Tony) Kron
Jenna Fike
MAJ Tony Kron served as operations officer (S3) and company commander of 1-67 Armor at Forward Operating Base (FOB) Iskandariyah during 2005 and 2006 and as battalion military transition team (MiTT) chief attached to 1st Infantry Division (ID) in Mosul, Iraq during 2009 and 2010 in support of Operation Iraqi Freedom (OIF). In this October 2010 interview, MAJ Kron discusses the challenges of serving in an Armor unit as an infantry officer, his mission in the Jurf al Sakhar area south of Baghdad, and his experiences with a MiTT. MAJ Kron concludes his interview with the observation, “If you’re going to have teams – security force teams like MiTTs and things like that – then it needs to be a skill set in the Army. It does not need to be someone I can pull off the shelf and shove into the job. It needs to be someone who has the appropriate level of training, the appropriate skills for it, and has a desire to do it.”
