                            JULLS LONG REPORT



         1. (U) JULLS NUMBER: 51447-86348 (00006), submitted by 307 ENG
         (WABGAA), MAJ Nelson, 239-7880, (919)432-7880.

         2. (U) Operation DESERT SHIELD/STORM conducted by CENTCOM on
         05/14/91.


         3. (U) KEYWORDS: PLATOON MANNING, ALERT

         4. (U) TITLE: Line Platoon Manning Upon Alert

         5. (U) OBSERVATION: Moving personnel to man the DRB line
         platoons at 100% strength during the alert/deployment phase
         caused many problems, especially +or the -Follow-up platoons.

         6. (U) DISCUSSION: Other companies in the battalion were
         stripped of personnel and equipment so B/307 EN could accompany
         2d Bde at 100% strength. The battalion had to reorganize later
         in Saudi Arabia so other units could have adequate readiness.
         We had to attach two Corps engineer platoons to A/307 EN so they
         could support Ist Bde's deployment. Team cohesion and property
         accountability suffered as a result of these reorganizations.

         7. (U) LESSON LEARNED: N/A

         S. (U) RECOMMENDED ACTION: Division must identify early how
         much of the division will deploy. This will give the Bn
         Commander an opportunity to make the best decision for
         resourcing the deployment. He can send three slightly
         understrength companies to support division, or one full-up
         (leaving two very understrength ones) to support a brigade.

         9. (U) COMMENTS: NONE




         10. (U) SUBJECT: DEPLOYMENT

         11. (U) Action managed by: CALL, action worked by: , RAP number:
               Lesson distributed by: DIVISION.
