GOALS FOR DEPLOYMENT
4
Goals for Deployment 1 st Deployment of an AML unit overseas since OIF in 2003 Can an AML even Deploy? –Too few people for too much equipment? Will the tactical and technical equipment survive movement? –Equipment sensitivity, age, and condition Can we test accurately in a Field Environment? Validate testing Protocols and Procedures To test function and interoperation with similar organizations: - CBRNE Analytical and Remediation Activity (CARA) Laboratory - Republic of Korea Chemical, Biological, Radiological Defense Command (ROK CBRD CMD)
5
PREPARATION FOR DEPLOYMENT
6
Preparation for Deployment Define the Mission –To detect and identify biological and chemical agents/toxins. –Train and work with similar lab units (CARA and ROK CBRD CMD) in a field deployed environment Determine Personnel Requirement –12 total –3 HQ (LTC Pell, SGM Krueger, SSG Jaramillo) –5 Chem (MAJ Moser, SSG Lynn-Carswell, SGT Barnes, SGT Tate, SPC Crowfoot) –4 Bio (CPT Pierson, SSG Loudenclos, SGT Harris, SPC Washington)
7
Preparation for Deployment cont. Identify Equipment Requirement –TEMPER and ISO Shelters –Power Generation Equipment –Sample Receiving Equipment –3 rd Squad (GS/MS) –4 th Squad (PCR and ECL) Coordination of Movement –Line-haul –Movement by SEA!!! –HAZMAT and Temperature considerations
8
Preparation for Deployment cont. Coordination of Support in Korea –Housing –Field Site Location –Commo –Food –Fuel –Equipment Support –Reach-back ability
