CATEGORY: Planning 
 
ISSUE ITEM #: 
 
SUBJECT: CONUS Expansion 
 
BACKGROUND: Additional trained staffing for HQ SAC is needed early on in 
the contingency process. Twenty-four hour coverage in the support battle 
staff plus triple the "normal" workload in SGAX could not be absorbed by 
three personnel even when augmented with part time help from other 
sections. 
 
DISCUSSION: Operations and Plans personnel were quickly "burned-out" and 
augmentation from other sections on a duty roster basis did not provide 
the expertise or continuity required. 
 
ACTION RECOMMENDED: HQ SAC should have a cadre of reserve forces ready 
to augment early in any scenario. Ideally, three 9016 IMAs (1 for SGA 
and 2 for SGAX), as well as a senior guard and a senior reserve 90670/90 
are needed to not only pick up the added workload; but they would also 
be familiar with guard and reserve procedures and points of contact. 
This would greatly have improved our call-up and our re-leveling of 
CONUS facilities. 
 
SUGGESTED OPR: HQ SAC/SGAX
