COMBAT SERVICE SUPPORT
TOPIC: Contract water supply.
OBSERVATION: Contract water suppliers have difficulty in
keeping up with daily requirements - further it's delivery is
slowed because 9~% of the deliveries are not palletized and
each semi-load needs to be manhandled.
VIEWER NOTES:
TOPIC: Water.
OBSERVATION: Bottle water has been our main route - it
reduces initial health risk and overcome the current bulk water
shortages. However it's unrealistic to depend on bottled water
over the long term. Our current goal is one (1) case of water
(4.5 gallons) per man per day. In addition to that we are
allocating l~ gallons of bulk water for washing, cooking, etc.,
that equates to about 15 gallons per man per day. We have
revised our estimate from Fort Bliss of 22.5 gallons per day to
an optimum of 19.3 gallons a day and we should reach that
capability by the end of the month.
VIEWER NOTES:
TOPIC: The Admittance and Disposition Report.
OBSERVATION: Units are not receiving instructions at unit
level for disposition of personal property. The A&D report
(admittance and disposition?) is not being forwarded to units.
Problems with backlogs of personal property at units - units
don't know status of soldiers - whether evacuated to CONUS or
USAREUR - or wherever else. Patient tracking out of theater is
nonexistent.
