           Rafha DC Camp, while both mech rifle companies continue fatigue
          ails in support of the effort to complete the Rafha N refugee
        processing point. Both infantry companies are providing reaction
        forces for Rafha Airfield and Rafha N DC Camp. An Apache section
        conducted a show of presence mission vicinity Rafha I in Iraq today!

        PART 2.       Plans Summary. 2AD(F) continues DC camp security
        mission and continues processing refugees from Rafha N DC camp and
        Safwan DC camp. The TF continues operations at the processing
        center at Rafha Airfield and Rafha I. The TF will continue with one
        infantry fatigue detail to assist Saudis erecting tents at Rafha
        II. The main body will concentrate on finishing containers and the
        Camp HOW closeout. Advance party moves to KKMC tomorrow to fly on 7
        May. Expect to have all but the trail party gone by 9 May.

        PART 3. (8) Commander's Concerns: None.

        PART 4.       Commander's Assessment: Task Force Rafha received
        approximately 1800 refugees from Safwan on 5 May. Reportedly, 850
        remain at Safwan. We will complete movement on 6 May, and close
        Rafha III on 7 May, and Rafha I on 8 and 9 May. Expect the formal
        turnover and end of mission at 1500 on 9 May. I will submit the
        task force dissolution plan by separate message. The guard towers
        were redirected to KKMC, and subsequently received authorization to
        destroy them and did so. I had requested they be turned off on 4
        May; however, that didn't happen. There was no intent to violate
        @--ps directives. All is on track. It is great work done by great
          diers. I submitted the Humanitarian Service Award recommendation
        .VL the task force to your headquarters at 1500 on 5 May. Request
        expeditious processing of the packet. The 793d MP BN (-) completed
 pills, which were antibacterial, as a result of EPW
        involvement and not related to the Rafha effort. I presented Combat
        Infantryman's Badges to soldiers from the 1-41 IN BN on this date!
        Hell on Wheels!

        POC this headquarters is MAJ Suslowicz at 9-709-7730-636/637.
