File: 970207_aadci_045.txtODS MEDICAL LESSONS LEARNED LOGISTICS CATEGORY LOGISTICS ISSUE NO. 15 Issue and Resupply of Individual First Aid Kits (SGHR ITEMS NO. 215, 216) DISCUSSION: Few base supply operations in the Air Force had the individualized first aid kits in the mobility bag for this deployment. Individuals and commanders were requesting medical supply to provide the kits. Commanders were not aware that ATH was not responsible to provide first aid kits. Additionally, during ODS life support shops brought the first aid kits to the ATHs for inspection and restocking. RECOMMENDATIONS: All base supply activities budget for and procure kits that go into mobility bags. TA 896, section K for medical supply should be updated to include all items required to inspect and repack first aid kits after deployment. ACTIONS REQUIRED: Update ATH TA to include resupply items necessary for individual first aid kits. Procurement at home base of individual first aid kits is not a medical issue. Each unit is responsible for ordering and purchasing required first aid kits for their personnel. ACTIONS COMPLETED: ATH TA has been reviewed and updated to address the resupply problem. STATUS: Recommend closure.
