            ANNEX I (NUCLEAR, BIOLOGICAL, AND CHEMICAL DEFENSE) TO VII (US)
            CORPS OPLAN 19,90-2 (OP.ERATION DESERT SABER),


                          3.       Locate and mark contaminated routes.



                      (b)       If contamination cannot be avoided, the
            preferred methods of decontamination are weathering and hasty
            decontamination.


                          1.         Commanders are responsible for
            establishing and conducting hasty decontamination operations for
            their units. Hasty decontamination sites will be located as far
            forward as possible to limit the spread of contamination.

                          2.         Units will decontaminate personnel and
            equipment at the lowest possible level.

                          3.         Chemical units identify deliberate
            decontamination sites and provide priority decontamination
            support to logistical complexes, command and control elements,
            and CSICSS units.

                     (c) (U) Smoke operation priorities:

                          1.         Phase I. Intensive smoke operations
            training and planning for Phases II and III operations
            (3AD: feint, IID(M): demonstration and breaching, 2ACR: obstacle
            gap exploitation).

                          2.         Phase II. Deception smoke operations
            focus on supporting 3AD's feint in order to portray the main
            attack of the Corps being made in the eastern portion of the
            Corps' sector. 3AD's smoke operations support the corps' demon-
            stration to deceive the enemy as to the location and timing of
            the main attack.

                          3.         Phase III. Smoke operations are
            conducted to support 1ID(M)ls breaching operations and
            penetration of ist echelon defenses. 2ACR employs smoke assets
 support the exploitation of a gap in the obstacle system.

                          4.         Phases IV - VI. Smoke operations
            continue to decrease friendly force vulnerabilities and enemy's
            C3 and target acquisition capabilities.


                                        I-3                                          m
