             Local supply procurement sources also began toqigrate south as
           hostilities erupted, to compound the problem of our demands exceeding
           local supplies. This problem was anticipated and steps were taken to
           increase stock levels of necessities. The addition of 2nd SRIG units
           under the administrative and operational control of ist SRIG r @ ired
           the re-location of MIMMS and SASSY accounts into the AOR, and the
           procurement of additional desert camouflage clothing and equipment.

             other logistics areas of concern during January included: MIKKS and
           SASSY support for units deployed in forward areas, and the desert
           camouflage painting of arriving vehicles and equipment. The ammo
           business was busy with the basic issue to arriving units and personnel
           and other special mission packages. The Ist SRIG Medical section
           coordinated NBC preventive medicine issues and injections during the
           month, and also experienced a changeover in Group Surgeons.

             The SRIG run messhall aboard Camp 5 maintained it's high sanitation
           rating, food quality, and quantity despite the decrease in food vendor
           capability due to the increased demand. The lst SRIG Mess Chief was
           responsible for the coordination of food service support at the MEP
           Main location with SRIG and MEF cooks, as well as other SRIG unit
           locations throughout the AOR.

             Further logistical support from the Ist SRIG rear at Camp Pendleton
           was restricted during January with the implementation of the V MEF
           concept which consolidated remain behind equipment and personnel.
           Overall the intensity of logistical activity increased during January
           with the start of hostilities, and looks to continue in the future.


                                            MEDICAL


               During the month of January, 1991, the lst SRI Group Aid Station
           saw a total of 513 patients (Ist SRIG-116, 2nd SRIG-28, 9th
           COMM-62,8TH COMM-307). There were also 9 admissions to the hospital.
           There were no trends or clustering of cases around any particular
           disease. During the month of January the Ist SRI Group BAS immunized
           the group against various bacterial and viral organisms of public
           health concern.

                CANA Auto-injectors , Ciprofloxin and NAPP tablets were issued to
           the troops for protection against chemical and biological warfare.
