           1. MAJOR SIGNIFICANT ACTIVITIES (LAST WEEK)

                A. JA team 888th assigned responsibility for GSU 1012.

                h. CPT Montgomery assigned responsibility for Host Nation
                Warehouse-KKMC.

                C. MST III augmented to provide 3 full time 9lRs for the
                Host Nation Warehouse-Hafr Al Batin and-2 full time 91RS for
                the EPW camps.

                d. Recon trips to Log Base Alpha continue to show no ration
                issue,or storage activity. Conflicting reports indicate one
                plan to close LB Alpha and another plan to gear LB Alpha up
                to full activity.

                e. COL wesson has visited all inspection activities once
                and a second visit to Host Nation Warehouse-Hafr Al Batin
                and the EPW camps has occurred. Commanders of both EPW
                camps have been contacted.

                f. At the 301st MP Brigade which is issuing rations for
                both camps, public health hazards were documented(see
                attachment). Twenty-four hours later significant
                improvements had been made. all rations were under cover
                although pallets were still not available. The area had
                been policed up. These activities were accomplished using
                EPW work parties. Plans were to force issue remaining
                distressed rations.

                g. The 251st Evac Hospital called to request removal of a
                feral cat from their mess storage room. The cat had an old
                necrotic non-union fracture of the left foreleg and showed
etid diarrhea. There was no
                history of bites or scratches. The cat was euthanized and
                the hospital instructed to clean up the store room area.

                h. On 24 Feb 1991(G Day) we received a call and.met with
                COL Kennedy, the 803rd Med Grp Commander, concerning
