JULLS LONG REPORT
1. (U) JULLS NUMBER: 51452-75192 (00007). submitted by 307 ENG
(WASSAA), MAJ Nelson, 239-7880, (919)432-7880.
2. (U) Operation DESERT SHIELD/STORM conducted by CENTCOM on
05/14/91.
3. (U) KEYWORDS: AMMUNITION LOADING
4. (U) TITLE: Ammunition Loading During Alerts
5. (U) OBSERVATION: Class V loading operations during alert
were haphazard and inappropriate. The RSOP was not followed.
6. (U) DISCUSSION: Ammunition cards were ignored at the
ammunition loading area. This was largely because the right
ammunition was not on-hand for loading. As a result, engineer
vehicles were loaded with mortar rounds and not demolitions.
This could have had disastrous results at the far end.
7. (U) LESSON LEARNED: N/A
S. (U) RECOMMENDED ACTION: Units must have accurate UBLs (ours
in RSOP is wrong). Class V loading during alert must follow the
RSOP. Create engineer-type ammunition pallets in peacetime.
Keep units informed if alert ammunition will not be on-h@ind.
Make common-sense substitutions when desired ammunition not
available.
9. (U) COMMENTS: N/A
10. (U) SUBIECT: DEPLOYMENT
11. (U) Action managed by: CALL, action worked by: , RAP number:
Lesson distributed by: DIVISION.
