                      COMBAT SERVICE SUPPORT

    TOPIC:   Resupply in a desert environment is critical.

    OBSERVATION:

    -   Vehicle support is a must due to excessive soldiers
load.   Loads can be tailored to meet mission based on mission
analysis.

    -   Water must be resupplied twice in 24 hours due to
consumption.

    -   Drink water!

    -   Field sanitation teams are a must--train them.

    -   Prescribed Load List (PLL) and other critical supplies
are hard to come by.   Bring what you can.

    -   Dig pits to cool rations/water.

    -   Every critter here is on a mission to give you a
disease.

    -   Vehicles can easily get stuck in soft sand.  Soft sand
can suddenly appear in front of you.   Escort trucks with
HMMWVs.
