                                         JULLS LONG REPORT


              1. (U) JULLS NUMBER: 32629-32098 (00233), submitted by RILEY
              PTM-C, MR WALTER, 856-2225, (913)239-22-@5.

              2. (U) Operation DESERT SHIELD conducted by USCENTCOM on 02/06/91.

              3. (U) KEYWORDS: RWO (REAL WORLD OPS), USA (US ARMY), TRAINING,
              PLANS, FAVORABLE, AUTHORITY, CAPABILITY, PRIORITY, SUPPORTABILITY.

              4. (U) TITLE: Personnel: Impact of Division Deployment on Post
              Chem Opns & Manning

              5. (U) OBSERVATION: Prior to deployment NBC Division, Ist ID (M)
              was collocated with Post Chemical, USAG. While the offices did
              not share personnel assets (except the secretary), the NBC
              Division, lst ID (M) supported the garrison missions for NBC
              Logistics and CS Chamber scheduling. The Post Chemical Officer
              played a subordinate role of Radiation Protection Officer (RPO)
              under the Division Chemical Officer. The RPO rated the NBC
              School Senior Instructor and NWSB Branch Chief. The Division
              Chemical Officer senior rated post chemical officer, RPO, and
              the secretary.

              6. (U) DISCUSSION: As the lst ID (M) deployed, garrison
              missions performed by NBC Division, lst ID (M), defaulted to
              Post Chemical, USAG personnel. Train-Ltp time for USAG
              personnel was sufficient in the Desert Shield scenario,
              (but would not have been for a REFORGER deployment).
              Sufficient USAG personnel became available to assume
              responsibility for NBC logistics (two personnel), office
              leadership (two personnel), and RC unit training (+our
              personnel), even though the TDA authorized only five personnel.
             Mobilization of the IMA Operations Sergeant did not occur
              because incumbent was documented as untrained.


               Assumption of full leadership by the RPO as the Chief, Post
              Chemical DPTM, occurred without difficulty because the RPO
              understood his role under Standard Installation Organization
              (SIO) and anticipated its reality.

               Mobilization of the Officer (05) IMA as branch chief did not
              Occur since the civilian RPO was the IMA. Non-key RPO duties
              were temporarily set aside during Desert Shield and resumed in
              large part after its completion by another non-deploying
              officer, who became the alternate RPO.

               Role and impact of Desert Sheld on the NWSB remained
              unchanged since Supported units did not mobilize during Desert
              Shield; hence, mobilization a+ IMA in NWSB was not required.

               Post Chemical continued to justify personnel authorizations
              and requirements beginning the years prior to S November 1990
              (Divisional alert notice) thru deployment and immediately after.
