Folder Title = 800TH MP BDE AAR 1 JUN 91
Unit = MISC
Parent Org = MISC
Annex N (Logistical Support) to 800th MP Bde Dese= Shield/storm
After AC-lion Report
Recommendation: Initiate above augmented Organization to in-
sure ability to effectively sustain 24-hour operation.
21. issue: class I support for EPW's
Finding: The current MTOEs oO the Brigade and the Camps pro-
vides for nfi-ther the personnel nor the equipment to support the
feeding of the EPWS.
.Discussion: Organic food service assets could not begin to
impact-o-n-EH-e--sHortfalls in the following areas-
(a) dining facility personnel
(b) mess tents and screens
(c) food preparation/serving equipment
(d) water supply for cooking/cleaning
(e) Islamic dietary 'type' rations
Lack of the above mentioned items forced the Camps to seek al-
ternative means of meeting the feeding requirements of the EPWS.
Saudi, NATO, and U.S. 'MREI typo rations war* the most practical
to use, but were not readily iirailable at the initiation of hos-
tilities, nor always met the dietary requirements of the EPWS.
The Camps were required to press into service personnel outside
of the food service career management field, cross training indi-
viduals to meet the immediate no*ds. Utilization of EPW's for
food service support presented safety, sanitation, and training
concerns. Equipment had to be sought through contracting with
Host Nation, and adapted to meet the Camp's Food Service require-
ments.
Recommendation: MTOEs need to be augmented to provide the
personnel and equrp-mont to either provide the Food Service sup-
port, and/or the personnel with the expertise to identify, lo-
cate, contract and deliver the items necessary to meet all EPW
Food Service needs.
22. issue: Camp Field Sanitation
Finding: The sanitation standards recommended by the Mili-
tary We-a-TEK-Uepartment war* mettmaintained for EPWO.
Discussion% EPWs processing into the Camps, did so with a
myriad of diseases and injuri*s.- When the EPWs were procoss*d
into the Camps, hyqien* issues were addressed, with showers, de-
lousing, issuance-6f clean clothes and other functions being pro-
vid*d. Medical attention was provided for treatment of injuries
& diseases and for the prevention of communicable dis*asos. The
Food Service Advisor and the Preventive Medicine team had to work
together to ensure that field sanitation was enforc&d at all
tiiaes, to include the forcing of EPW& to use the field latrines.
