General
1-1. Purpose
a.
The purpose of this regulation is to prescribe policy, procedures, and responsibilities relative to planning for, participation in, and support of joint n-aining exercises which are part of the Chairman, Joint Chiefs of Staff (CJCS) Five-Year Joint Training Exercise Program.

b.
The Amy must train to fight jointly with sister services and as a member of a combined force with our allies. Joint and combined training offer an unparalleled peacetime opportunity to exercise and refine warfighting capabilities of both active and reserve components. Such training enables units to apply joint and combined doctrine and tactics, rehearse the techniques and procedures of integrated command and control, and challenge the full range of problems associated with operational and logistical interoperability (to include deployment and redeploy­ment).

Developing and updating, annually, CINC joint training plans that integrate resources available to meet joint training requirements.

(5)
Forwarding CINC JMETL and joint train­ing plans to the Chairman, CJCS, for coordination.

(6)
Providing, as appropriate, forces for train­ing in support of other CINCs exercise requirements.

(7)
Promulgating deployment/redeployment guidance consistent with resource limitations and generally accepted lead time planning parameters to exercise players. This includes air/sealift allocations when appropriate.

c. Sequence.

(1)
The CJCS hosts the Worldwide Training Conference annually in September. The purpose of this conference is to provide updated training guidance, resource allocations and to note potential exercise scheduling problems. This conference sets the context for the CINC sponsored scheduling conferences.

(2)
The CINCs develop their Five Year Exercise Plan and priorities and host their annual scheduling conference during the first quarter of each fiscal year (FY).

(3)
The CINCs submit their draft Five Year Exercise Plan to CJCS in January of each year.

(4)
The office of the Joint Staff hosts a worldwide exercise scheduling conference annually, usually in Febniary. The CJCS conference results are published in June or July as the CJCS Joint Training Plan JTP.

(5)
The CJCS Joint Exercise Schedule is the basis for FORSCOM designation of units or selection of type unit and publication of the requirements list for each JT. The schedule of exercises in which FORSCOM forces are desired is published annually in FORSCOM Circular 350-10-YR. The circular requests major FORSCOM commands nominate units to fill the type unit requirements and/or provide their comments on the program. Unit selection is normally based on -

(a)
OPLAN/CONPLAN relationships.

(b)
Unit mission.

(c)
Availability of unit.

(d)
Availability of funding,

(e)
Date of last exercise participation.

CHAPTER 2
Implementation
2-1. General Individual force requirements for each exercise are identified in FORSCOM Circular 350-10 series for the current FY and for the next four consecutive FYs. The participant lists are tentative and subject to refmement during the exercise planning process based on the supported CINCs scenario, force apportionment, funding, airlift/sealift availability, and available active and reserve component forces. Where possible, scheduled forces, dates, and location(s) are stabilized 24 months before the exercise.
2-2. Command Relationships
a.
Command. Commanders of FORSCOM units retain command of assigned forces participat­ing in joint exercises.

b.
Operational Control. Operational control (for exercise purposes) of forces participating in exercises is assumed by the designated headquarters as specified in exercise operation orders/plans. Typically, transfer of operational control may occur when a specified geographical location is passed enroute or upon arrival at the initial port/exercise location, and reverts to the parent command upon departure from the last maneuver area/designated enroute stop to home station. Exercise directives contain detailed change of operational control instructions.

2-3. FORSCOM Action Agent (FAA)
a.
The term FAA refers to the commander appointed to coordinate FORSCOM support of a joint training exercise. The authority of designated FAA is limited to implementing actions in support of joint training exercises and will not be construed as authorization to circumvent the normal chain of command or expand the tasking authority of the commander designated. The FAA is normally the senior participating, FORSCOM commander/head­quarters or major subordinate command providing the greatest number of units/personnel to the exercise.

b.
The commander designated as FAA may appoint a subordinate commander as his representa­tive to perform FAA functions. However, this does not relieve the FORSCOM designated commander of his assigned responsibilities as the FAA.

c.
The FAA is authorized direct coordination with supported headquarters, supporting headquarters, agencies, and FORSCOM participating units as required for preparing, deploying, participating, redeploying and reporting in conjunction with an assigned exercise.

2-4. Environmental Assessment, Land Acquisition, and Maneuver Areas (See Chapter 15)
2-5. Budgeting and Funding
a. Forces Command provides funds to support incremental costs (over and above non-nal operating) of FORSCOM unit pre and post exercise support activities. Funds are also provide to cover incremental costs of participation in CINCUSACOM and USCINCCENT schedulecUsponsored CJCS approved exercises. Incremental participation costs associated with other CINC scheduled/sponsored exercises is the responsibility of the Anny component of the scheduling command e.g. EUCOMTUSAREUR, SOUTHCOM/USARSO. Funded levels are based on the program level, the requirements and priorities established by FORSCOM, and the requirements of the exercise participants. The Preliminary Planning Estimate, Preliminary Budget Estimate, and Field Budget Estimate (discussed in paragraphs 2-5b and 7-3a-f) are the primary documents upon which CJCS exercise cost estimates are reported to FORSCOM. The installation Command Operating Budget (COB), or other budget reporting requirements may (as applicable) also be used as methods of reporting CJCS exercise costs. Only those incremental costs (over and above normal operations) resulting from participation in the exercise will be reported. Normal operating costs of the unit will not be included.
(1)
Nonnal operating costs are those costs that would be incurred by a unit for training at home station instead of participating in a CJCS approved exercise. These costs are not exercise costs as defined by this regulation or AR 350-28 and are not reimbursable with Army Support Dollars (ASD).

(2)
Detailed funding guidance and definitions are provided in AR 350-28.

(3)
Examples of properly and improperly chargeable obligations are found in AR 350-28, Appendix B. Additional examples and clarification are at Appendix A to this regulation.

(4)
No Operation and Maintenance Army (OMA) (also called P2), Operation and Maintenance Army Reserve (OMAR), ASD, or PH/IT funds will

be used for strategic deployment/redeployment airlift of troops during CJCS exercises unless expressly approved in advance by CDR, FORSCOM, ATTN: AFOP-TR, 1777 Hardee Avenue, SW., Fort McPherson, GA 30330-1062.
b. Exercise OMA funds will be administered as follows:
(1)
All OMA Program 2 (AMS 116011) funds furnished by FORSCOM, for conducting CJCS exercises will be allocated to the FAA.

(2)
There are four separate funding reports required in support of each exercise.

(a)
Preliminary Planning Estimate due 30 days after FAA tasking message is issued.

(b)
Preliminary Budget Estimate due 180 days prior to the earliest announced exercise inclusive date.

(c)
Field Budget Estimate due 90 days prior to earliest announced exercise inclusive date.

(d)
Final Cost Report due 90 days after the last exercise employment date.

(e)
In all cases a Final Cost Report will be submitted by 15 October for exercises ending less than 90 days prior to 30 September or extending into a new fiscal year. These reports will only address funds obligated through the end of the current fiscal year.

(f)
All reports will use FORSCOM Fonn 253-R, Field Budget Estimate/Final Cost Report except for the PPE which may be submitted in Memorandum format. Reports will be addressed to CDR, FORSCOM, ATTN: AFOP-TR, 1777 Hardee Avenue, SW., Fort McPherson, GA 30330-1062. Detailed instructions for the preparation and submission of these reports are provided in Chapter 7 of this regulation.

(3)
Withdrawal of excess funds will normally occur after the submission of the Final Cost Report and the funds are declared excess by the FAA.

(4)
Requests for additional funds will be forwarded to CDR, FORSCOM, ATTN: AFOP-TR, 1777 Hardee Avenue, SW., Fort McPherson, GA 30330-1062.

c.
Port Handling/Inland Transportation (PH/IT) funds will be administered as follows:

0

(1)
The PH/IT funds are joint funds whose use is governed by an agreement between the HQDA and the CJCS. Funds are provided by CJCS through the Services to cover costs associated with the loading/unloading of ships and surface contract movement of people or equipment. Specific restric­tions and application are outlined in AR 350-28. Funds provided to the FAA are for CONUS port handling and commercial line haul expenses except for CINCUSACOM and USCINCCENT exercises. In the case of the latter two commands funds are to cover both CONUS and OCONUS expenses.

(2)
All PH/IT funds in support of a particular exercise will be distributed to the FAA. The FAA is responsible for funding the movement of authorized FORSCOM unit equipment, personnel, and coordi­nating with the Military Traffic Management Command (MTMC) for PH services.

(3)
The accounting classification for PH/IT funding is 97*0100.0112. Project codes are used to identify type of funding (PH or IT) and the specific exercise. Project codes are presented in the follow­ing format: 50*zzz, where * = 1 for PH and 2 for IT; zzz = numerical AR 37-100 designator for the specific exercise (Note: these project codes renzain with an exercise regardless of the FY Le., 501534 is the PH code for BRIGHT STAR 96 in all FY).

(4)
The IT funds can be used for unit equip­ment established on the Automated Unit Equipment List (AUEL) for units actually trooplisted on the CJCS exercise plan. Any other unit equipment or equipment from a non troop listed unit will be transported at the expense of the deploying unit. The IT funds can also be used for equipment loaned to trooplisted ad hoc (non TO&E or TDA) forces even though loaning units are not trooplisted to participate in the exercise.

(5)
The FAA is responsible for assembling and reconciling all Govenunent Bills of Lading (GBL) and accurately reporting the costs in the Final Cost Report.

(6)
Charges for PH, contracted by MTMC, will be verified by the FAA. Verification will be accomplished by applying the MTMC Port Handling Billing Rates from DA Circular 55-XX-3 (the XX indicates the fiscal year) against the AUEL for the exercise. The FAAs should provide MTMC not more than the amount of anticipated PH funds generated from this calculation. Direct coordination between the FAA and MTMC is authorized and reconunended.

(7)
The PH/IT funds should be requested only when a valid contract or Government Bill of Lading (GBL) is about to be executed, and should be obligated as soon after receipt as possible. Installa-

tions are encouraged to expeditiously return excess PH/IT funding to CDR, FORSCOM. The U.S. Army Finance and Accounting Office provides a periodic report of PH/IT obligations to HQDA and CJCS. This report provides the status of distributed versus obligated funds and is used by both DA and CJCS in approval of funds requests.
d. Commercial Ticket Program (CTP) funding is provided for small group/individual (people only) movement by corrunercial airline to/from an exercise. Only troop listed units on the exercise TPFDL are eligible to use the CTP. The CTP funds are joint funds and can only be used for a specific purpose. Details on use and restrictions are contained in AR 350-28.
(1)
Funds are provided by CJCS to the Services. The DA provides a quarterly allocation to M_ACOMs.

(2)
The USTRANSCOM recommends use of the CTP to the exercise sponsor. After concurrence by the exercise sponsor USTRANSCOM will send a message to the exercise scheduling command and Services authorizing the movement. The message will include an authorization number, specific ULN authorized to use CTP, unit name, number of PAX, point of origin/destination (if not classified), and total dollar amount authorized to expend. The exercise scheduling command is responsible for sending an action message to the appropriate supporting commands. The CDR, FORSCOM will forward this message to the FAA along with the total amount of funds authorized.

(3)
The accounting classification for CTP funding is the same as PH/1T and project code format is the same with the * equaling 3 (see para 2-5c.(3) for examples).

(4)
Use of exercise or unit OMA to purchase airline tickets in support of a CJCS approved exercise is not authorized unless expressly stated in writing by CDR, FORSCOM.

2-6. Finance
a. See Chapter 16 for detailed discussion of finance data.
b. The FAA will --
(1)
Furnish an administrative memorandum (sample format for this memorandum is in AR 37-106, Figure 3-8) to participants eligible for per diem. Format should --

(a)
Cite the applicable regulations of the host service that will govern per diem entitlements.

(b)
Include a statement indicating dates during, before, and/or after the exercise when Government quarters and/or mess were not available to the participant, when appropriate.

Costs directly attributable to the conduct of tests during a joint exercise will be provided by the respective test organization within each service/agency to the participating units.

2-10. Exercise Terms/Nicknames
a.
Exercises and unclassified project/missions are given a two-word exercise term/nickname and may be used more than once providing it is followed by a numeral (e.g., BRAVE SHIELD XX (U)). Single word designation will not be used for this purpose (AR 380-5, Appendix C).

b.
Exercise terms desired for any exercise must be reported to CDR, FORSCOM, ATTN: AFOP-TR, 1777 Hardee Avenue, SW., Fort McPherson, GA 30330-1062, through command charmels for approval and to ensure the CJCS and DA nickname base data file are kept current.

2-11. Alerting Procedures for Joint Exercises
Some exercises will use alerting procedures as an
integral part of the exercise. If used, CDR,

FORSCOM will announce the appropriate exercise
alerts through installation commanders. Procedures

to be followed will be as outlined in the appropriate joint exercise general plan/operation plan.
2-12. Public Affairs The Public Affairs mission is to keep the Arnerican people informed of military activities to the maximum extent possible consistent with OPSEC and personnel safety, as well as to provide public affairs support to the exercise director. Detailed responsibilities of public affairs participants in joint exercises are contained in Chapter 17.
2-13. Observers/Visitors
a.
Observer/visitor spaces for FORSCOM units/activities will be allocated by CDR, FORSCOM. Spaces for DA, TRADOC, and other commands/agencies will be allocated by the exercise sponsor.

b.
Nominations to fill visitor/observer alloca­tions awarded by FORSCOM to each headquarters in para a above, will be dispatched to CDR, FORSCOM, ATTN: AFOP-TR, 1777 Hardee Avenue, SW., Fort McPherson, GA 30330-1062, as soon as possible after receiving allocations, or as directed. Allocation spaces not used will also be reported (RCS exempt: AR 335-15, para 7-2z). The following data is required:

(1) Grade, name, SSN, and security clearance.
(2) Organization and st ation.
(3)
Desired length of visit (inclusive dates of arrival and departure).

(4)
Area of interest in sufficient detail to allow appropriate action by the visitors bureau of the exercise.

2-14. Safety and Accident Prevention
a.
A safety officer will be appointed at all levels of command down to company/separate detachment at command levels below division/sepa­rate brigade. This will be an additional duty officer. Additionally, a noncommissioned officer will be appointed to assist the safety officer. At division and higher levels an 018 civilian safety professional will normally serve as the command safety director. In the event a safety professional is unavailable, an officer in the rank of Captain or above may be appointed with the primary duty of safety.

b.
The safety officer serves as the commanders primary advisor and exercises staff supervision within the command for all rn atters concerning safety/accident prevention and provides assistance to subordinate units as appropriate.

c.
The safety officer will norrnally be assigned in a field enviromnent as a special staff officer. The safety professional should work closely with all staff elements to ensure adequate safety and accident prevention measures are incorporated in all operations orders and plans. In order to perform effectively, safety personnel should be provided the same support as their staff counterparts. A tactical vehicle is normally required in order to access remote locations. Blackout drive and tactical communications are also important. Appropriate tentage, heaters, and cots should also be issued if issued to other staff members.

d.
Commanders at all levels will ensure risk analysis are conducted for all operations. When time does not permit a full risk analysis to be conducted a partial or hasty risk analysis will be conducted. The risk analysis will carefully consider all hazards associated with a particular operation and provide the commander with a listing of the hazards that could adversely impact upon completion of the mission. The commander will then consider the risks involved and may request the safety advisor to develop countermeasures to reduce the risk to an acceptable level if possible. A safety annex to all operations will be developed and will outline specific countermeasures developed.

e.
Before departing home station, troops will be oriented on the general and specific hazards associated with the field exercise and with the execution of assigned missions.

f. The safety of personnel will not be sacrificed for realism during training exercises. Prior to any proposed relaxation of safety factors, commanders will carefully weigh the degree of combat realism required with the state of their troop training. Positive procedures will be established to ensure the following:

(1)
All personnel are thoroughly briefed on the conduct of the exercise to include safety procedures and probable accident-producing conditions and hazards in such areas as vehicle, water, ammunition and explosives, aviation, range, and environmental hazards in maneuver areas.

(2)
All personnel are accounted for before the start of any live fire exercises.

(3)
All live fire exercises employ an emergency cease fire notification system that is known to all participating personnel.

(4)
All ammunition used during live fire exercises meets the requirements in AR 385-63.

(5)
In all firing exercises, blank ammunition is issued from supply points separate from supply points issuing live ammunition to prevent inadver-tently mixing blank with live ammunition.

(6)
All motor vehicle operators are briefed on safe operation of vehicles both on and off roads in bivouac areas. Ensure all vehicle operators are properly licensed for the theater in which they are operating.

(7)
Personnel do not sleep in, on, under, or near wheeled and tracked vehicles.

(8)
Exercises involving range firing are IAW AR 385-63.

(9)
Medical support includes air, as appropri­ate, and motor vehicle evacuation of personnel requiring hospitalization.

(10)
Convoys and march units do not have unlimited right of way, and even where convoy and march unit integrity is essential, individual vehicle operators will exercise extreme caution at all intersections and other locations to avoid damage or injury; all inotor vehicle operators and march unit commanders are aware that convoys and Government vehicles do not necessarily have the right of way at controlled or uncontrolled intersections, or on roadways, notwithstanding application of local law or duly authorized traffic control personnel or devices.

g.
Cominanders at all levels are responsible for compliance with FORSCOM and AR 385-series regulations.

h.
Reportable accidents will be reported IAW FORSCOM AR 385-1 and AR 385-40.

2-15. Lessons Learned and After-Action-Reports
a.
General. Commands sponsoring ancUor scheduling JTX in the CJCS program require after action reports (AAR). (When preparing after action reports, cite RCS exempt: AR 335-15, para 5-2e(7).) SM 373-88 establishes this requirement. Further, it directs the reports be prepared and submitted in the Joint Universal Lessons Learned System (JULLS) format.

b.
The AAR consist of two parts: Part 1, a First Impressions Report (FIR); and Part 2, a Final Report (FR).

(1)
The FIR provides higher headquarters with the initial assessment of the exercise. Command requirements for this report will be covered in the respective exercise plan or directive.

(2)
The FR provides the official description of the exercise and identifies significant lesson(s) learned. The FR is composed of a "SUMMARY" JULL and a refinement of the accompanied JULL(S) (Lesson(s) Learned). The "SUMMARY" JULL must include in the narrative section an "EXECUTIVE SUMMARY" paragraph (para 12). Additionally, the "Summary" JULL will include an assessment of the unit's capability to support the Theater CINC JMETL addressed in the joint exercise.

c.
The FR will be prepared as an electronic data base forniat, and a paper copy of the electronic form, and be submitted with a cover letter or memoranda indicating command approval.

d.
The FAA for an exercise will forward five copies of the FR to CDR, FORSCOM, ATTN: AFOP-TR, 1777 Hardee Avenue, SW., Fort McPherson, GA 30330-1062, NLT the time frame specified in the respective exercise plan or directive. Commands submitting electronic format to CICS grant read permission to the following USERID: "AF7FORCE-EX". Notify FORSCOM via the WIN teleconference, pertaining to the exercise, of the CATALOG FILE STRING where the export file resides.

e.
The electronic format is created using the JULLS computer program. The program and manual have been distributed to Corps and Division level. Other commands can obtain a copy of this software and manual upon request from CDR, FORSCOM, ATTN: AFOP-TR, 1777 Hardee Avenue, SW., Fort McPherson, GA 30330-1062.

CHAPTER 3

Personnel
805

3-1. General Current personnel and administrative policies, procedures, and directives apply, except as otherwise noted herein. From a broad perspective, FM 12-6, Personnel Doctrine, should be used in planning personnel play, force tailoring, and exercise support. The FAA for joint exercises or their designated representative will follow current personnel policies and procedures, where feasible, within exercise constraints and the guidance from higher headquar­ters.
3-2. Personnel Fill
a. Unit F ill
(1)
Units (Active and Reserve) will participate in exercises with personnel required to accomplish the assigned mission. Coordination for unit partici­pation will be done IAW policy established by the Deputy Chief of Staff for Operations (DCSOPS), FORSCOM. Current FORSCOM strength is consi­dered sufficient an no additional fill will be undertaken specifically for exercises. Exceptions will be directed based on FORSCOM coordination with the supported CINC, USACOM and HQDA.

(2)
The method of any DA-directed fill for Reserve units participating in exercises will be stated in the correspondence directing exercise participa­tion.

b.
Individual Augmentation. The FAAs will fill all required exercise/support personnel positions; exceptions will be granted only after organic resources are exhausted. Forces Command, DCSOPS, Current Operations Division, Central Tasking Branch (AFOP-OCT) will coordinate the fill of individual augmentation. Reserve component personnel (unit or non unit) may participate as individual augmentees.

3-3. Administrative Procedures for Individual Augmentation
a. General.
(1) The processes noted herein support identifi­cation of personnel fill requirements to FORSCOM and the execution processes to provide the individual fillers. These processes cannot be implemented if the budgeting processes described in Chapter 2 have not been executed.
(2) The complete process to provide individual
support to exercises include four steps:
(a) Identification of requirements. Exercise
FAA.
(b) Validation of Requirements. Forces
Command, DCSOPS.
(c) Establishment of Priorities. Forces
Command, DCSOPS.

(d)
Coordination of fill. Forces Command, DCSOPS (AFOP-OCT), in coordination with appropriate staff agencies or subordinate commands.

b.
Requirements. Individual personnel fillers can be provided as exercise participants; exercise planners and evaluators; and/or exercise site support. Fill of these requirements will be met using internal FAA resources first and then requesting external fill from FORSCOM.

c.
Internal Fill. The FAA will be requested to fill those requirements within their capability which do not degrade their player role. Planning should consider use of Individual Mobilization Augmentees (IMA) in an annual training (AT) capacity to support exercise planning and execution.

d.
External Fill. The FAA may request per­sormel augmentation to fill other internal positions required in support of FAA functions not identified in initial exercise directives or planning documents.

(1)
Requests for personnel resources must be submitted in the following format.

(a)
Job title or description of duties to be performed.

(b)
Required Grade and Duty (AOC/MOS/SSD. Include any special skills (ASI, SQI, LIC, etc.).

(c)
Security Clearance Requirements.

(d)
Length of Tour.

(e)
Reporting Information (Date, Installa­tion/Agency, Building Number, Point of Contact).

(f)
Special Instructions.

(g)
Point of Contact for Funds.

(2)
The exercise FAA will mail requirements in a consolidated package to FORSCOM NLT 110 days prior to the desired reporting date. Correct mailing address is:

DEP CHIEF OF STAFF FOR OPNS
ATTN AFOP OCT

U.S. ARMY FORCES COMMAND
1777 HARDEE AVENUE, SW.,
FORT MCPHERSON GA 30330-1062

(3) Concept.
(a)
Initial request should identify a need for required support regardless of component.

(b)
When RC participation is desired to support specific exercise functions, the requirement should be identified in special instructions.

o
11

-
(c)
By Name Requests for RC Personnel can be Submitted but must be Supported by a completed DA Form 1058-R for ARNG and USARC Form 1058-R for USAR personnel.

(4)
Fill of exercise requireinents will be from all available FORSCOM resources. The Central Tasking Branch (AFOP-OCT), Current Operations Division, DCSOPS, will coordinate fill of require-ments through two sources:

(a)
Active Component (AC). Central Tasking will coordinate with appropriate agencies and implement tasking for fill requirements.

(b)
Reserve Component Unit Personnel. Central Tasking will coordinate with U.S. Army Reserve Command (USARC) and the National Guard Bureau (NGB) for support by individuals out of the troop unit program. By name requests for RC personnel will be coordinated with FORSCOM AG (AFAG-PRO) and forwarded to Army Reserve Personnel Center (ARPERCEN), USARC or the NGB, for order publication, as appropriate.

(5)
Individual Ready Reservist (IRR). Identifi­cation of IRR requirements will be provided to FORSCOM, Adjutant General (AFAG-PRO). They will coordinate with ARPERCEN, to determine their capability to provide IRR augmentation. The FORSCOM AG (AFAG-PRO) will provide informa­tion on all IRR fillers to Central Tasking (AFOP­OCT-OCT).

(6) Special Considerations:

(a)
Grade or skill substitution. Standard grade and skill substitution authorities apply when identi­fying fillers.

(b)
Joint Staff. Personnel selected to augment joint staffs must be qualified to perform in a joint staff assignment.

(c)
Security Clearance. Individuals selected to participate in exercises must have been granted at least an interim security clearance, UP AR 380-67, if the security clearance has been noted as a requirement in the exercise general plan. Clearances must have been recorded on DA FORM 973 (Certificate of Clearance and/or Security Determination) and the forms placed in the individuals' military personnel records jacket, or appropriate records packet, before movement from home station to the exercise area.

(d)
Temporary Duty (TDY) orders for individuals will indicate the augmented staff title, paragraph and line number of space being filled, if provided, SSI/MOS in which duty is to be performed and in which individual is qualified, security clearance by type (interim or final), and other information required by current directives.

e. Reserve Component Personnel.
(1)
Forces Command funding (man-days) for RC support for exercises is limited and will only be used for major exercises to fulfill documented exercise positions. Tours will normally not be greater than 139 days in length as directed bin AR 135-200.

(2)
Reserve Component personnel may partici­pate in joint exercises as individuals in one of several categories:

(a)
Annual Training (AT). Tour limitations vary from 12-17 days in CONUS to 29 days OCONUS. Reservists participating in AT status must be placed in a duty position that supports training in the soldier's AOC/MOS.

(b)
Active Duty for Training (ADT). Tours in this status must provide a soldier with planned and organized training to acquire, maintain, or enhance a skill or to received mobilization training. Active duty for Training will not be approved for organizational missions or administration. Actual participation in the exercise is required for approval of ADT.

(c)
Active Duty for Special Work (ADSW). Requested tours of duty in this status is to accomplish organizational missions, support, and administration actions or for critical, reserve component unique projects. Training for the individual soldier is incidental, and tours will normally not exceed 139 days. Tours can be used to support exercise planners and coordinators, staff action officers, exercise evaluators and other appropriate support roles.

(d)
During a fiscal year no RC soldier will be ordered to a Temporary Tour of Active Duty, ADSW, ADT or any combination that exceeds 179 days (including travel) without prior approval of the Chief, Army Reserve (CAR) for IRR, FORSCOM for USAR unit and IMA members, or the Director, Army National Guard for ARNG unit members.

(3)
Participation will be on a voluntary basis, approved by appropriate command authority, and will be within approved man day spaces. Authority for use of personnel on ADSW is AR 135-200, and for TTAD is AR 135-210.

(4)
The FAA will not coordinate directly with ARPERCEN, USARC, NGB or State Adjutants General to obtain RC individuals as exercise augmentees unless approved by FORSCOM.

(5)
Reserve Component personnel will be ordered to duty in advance of the exercise to support any duty position training requirements; receive any refresher training in tactical, organizational, and logistical doctrine, procedures, and techniques; and support any Soldier Readiness Requirements for overseas deployment.

(6)
In instances where RC personnel are used or attached, the requesting agency will ensure adequate support to the individual soldier (administrative,

logistical, financial, etc.) is provided. When the exercise is on an installation, the Director of Reserve Component (DRC) will normally provide or coordinate the support 'When the exercise is conducted on sites removed f-rom the installation, the exercise guidance will identify a support installation or direct the FAA to coordinate support from an installation.
(7) The FAA is responsible for ensuring evaluation reports are rendered on all RC personnel participating in the exercise as individual fillers.
3-4. Personnel Services and Morale, Welfare, and Recreation The FAA will provide or coordinate the following services, activities, and programs:
a.
Religious Activities. Religious coverage will be provided and religious services conducted during joint exercises.

b.
Postal Services (including postal financial services).

(1)
Major exercise units will use their organic postal personnel for this purpose. Units without organic postal personnel will be serviced by participating military postal unit(s). Appropriate mail routing instruction directives will be published. To ensure efficient postal service during joi-nt exercises, consideration should be given dtu-ing the planning phases to determine special requirements for U.S. Postal Service (USPS) equipment and support.

(2)
Identification of civil post offices which the volume of operations is anticipated to affect (small Army postal detachments should be located to assist post offices where anticipated impact warrants). CONUS installation commanders appointed as FAAs for large scale exercises will ensure coordination between local (training site) USPS offices and the appropriate military postal activities to be served under exercise conditions.

c.
Fitness and Recreation Services. Where appropriate, fitness and recreation activities, to include sports, entertainment, crafts, and library, will be a part of each joint exercise (AR 215-1). Consideration should be given to providing a mobile facility professionally staffed and equipped with small games, paperback books, supplies, and other

recreational equipment necessary to provide mobile fitness and recreation programs and service.
d.
Exchange Services. Where appropriate, exchange service will be provided by tactical field exchange and snack vans. This service will be scheduled at times and places that do not conflict with the conduct of the exercise. The operation of a video cassette entertainment motion picture program will be governed by AR 215-1.

e.
Army Emergency Relief (AER) and Red Cross Support.

(1)
The FAA should identify an action officer to coordinate AER requests.

(2)
The FAA should coordinate to have a Red Cross representative deploy in support of major OCONUS exercises.

3-5. Family Assistance
a.
Family Assistance and support services will be provided to families of AC (including DACs) and RC forces during periods of joint training exercises. Planning for family assistance will ensure that a comprehensive, realistic, flexible, and coordinated assistance delivery systems in place prior to departure for the exercise. This system will normally include Family Assistance Centers (FAC), or their equivalent; Family Support Groups (FSG); and unit rear detachments, or their equivalents (the link between families, FAC, FSG, other community resources, and the training units.

b.
The goal of family assistance is to provide support services to eligible family members at, or near to, their home town or home installation and information to immediate and extended family members of affected soldiers. Services will include emergency financial assistance, emergency food and shelter, crisis intervention, legal information, Defense Enrollment Eligibility Reporting System (DEERS), and the TRICARE/CHAMPUS Medical Program, counseling, and information and referral assistance.

3-6. Participation in Exercises Outside CONUS

a.
Movement outside CONUS for participation in field exercises is considered an overseas movement, although the move is of a temporary nature. Personnel participating in overseas training exercises will be processed in IAW guidance in AR 600-8-101.

b.
All units participating in an overseas exercise will have a deployment packet, IAW FORMDEPS Volume II, for each member accom­panying the unit to the exercise area.

3-7. Exercise Play
a. Personnel Data.

(1)
Personnel data play in Standard Army Management Infomiation Systems (STAMIS) will be limited.

(a)
Unless directed by DA, there will be no duplication of Standard Installation/Division Person­nel System (SIDPERS) play. Additionally, PERSINS Processing Activities will not use the test applications on local SIDPERS files to support exercise play.

(b)
Development and/or use of other personnel data bases to support exercise play and accountability will be specified in exercise directives.

(c)
PERSTEMPO/SKILLTEMPO Reporting (AC only). Guidance in HQDA message (DAPE­MPE), 161912Z JAN 97, Subj ect: PERSTEMPO/SKILLTEMPO Reporting, applies. Basic requirement is that the unit of assignment Deployment Indicator Code (DPLIC) will be updated to reflect deployments away from home station for periods of one day or longer.

(2)
Personnel Reporting. Personnel strength reports will be spelled out in exercise directives.

b. Reserve Component Accountability.

(1)
The RC personnel will be accounted for in strength reports identified in exercise directives.

(2)
Reserve Component Soldiers ordered to active duty for a period of days or longer will be processed into SIDPERS AC in status and DPL1C codes will be updated using the same criteria as AC (para 3-7a(1)(c) above).

c.
Individual Flow. Exercise development should include plans for individual flow, both on initial fill and replacement personnel, to the exercise site.

(1)
For OCONUS exercises, planning should consider realistic use of procedures to manage individual flow or simulate the processes to support realistic play. Action should include:

(a)
Coordination and use of CONUS Replace­ment Center (CRC) to deploy individuals to the exercise site. The DA DCSPER is the proponent for CRC operations and is responsible for coordinating with the theater C1NCs to establish flow of individuals through a CRC for an exercise. The FAA will coordinate directly with DA DCSPER, DAPE­PRO, DSN 224-7325, when individual flow to theater is part of the exercise design.

(b)
Coordination for participation of RC CRC units in the exercise. Coordination can be done directly with USARC.

(2)
For CONUS locations all individual flow should be simulated. Exercise planning could include a CRC unit to provide expertise and realism.

(3) Individual replacement play should make use of simulated casualties and U.S. Prisoner of War (PW) actions to provide more realism in the actual procedures for managing replacement actions.
d. Provost Marshal.
3-8. Status of Forces Army regulation 27-50 establishes policies and procedures for safeguarding Army personnel subject to a foreign jurisdiction or confined in a foreign penal institution.
3-9. Reports
a.
Personnel Status Reports (PERSTATS) will be submitted IAW Exercise Directives.

b.
The FAA or a designated representative will establish a central casualty reporting agency. This agency will prepare and process reports on actual casualties IAW AR60-8-1 and submit the reports via Army Casualty Information Processing System-Light (ACIPS-LT). Simulated casualty reports will developed and submitted through exercise channels using the guidance found in AR 600-8-1. These simulated reports will terminate at the FAA headquarters. Special care and handling of simu­lated reports is required to ensure that exercise messages remain in exercise channels. The AR 25-11 will be closely followed.

c.
Enemy Prisoner of War (EPW) reports (simulated) from CONUS EPW Camps will be submitted through exercise command channels to terminate at the FAA headquarters.

d.
Personnel reports prescribed herein are exempt from reports control under AR 335-15, paragraph 7-2.

CEAPTER 4
Intelligence
4-1. General
This chapter provides guidance, defines responsibili­
ties, and assigns tasks, as required, to support the
intelligence play of joint exercises. Intelligence
operations in joint exercises will be intensively
played. Within funding limitations and on request,
FORSCOM will supply the maximum personnel and
equipment to support all exercise information
gathering and intelligence producing activities. The
objective is to provide FORSCOM unit commanders
and staff with an opportunity to become aware of the
need for intelligence in operations planning, to
become familiar with agencies available for gathering
information and producing intelligence, and to
become familiar with capabilities and limitation of
each.
4-2. Policy
a.
Intelligence units, intelligence staff person­nel, and evaluators designated to participate in joint exercises will be fully qualified for the assigned mission or positions. Personnel assigned to augment joint staffs must be qualified by rank, experience, or formal training, to perform their designated duties with a minimal requirement for orientation or preparatory training.

b.
Preparatory training will emphasize unit and individual responsibility for cross-service support in the production and use of joint intelligence and will include:

(1)
Instruction on signal (COMSEC/ELSEC) to ensure high standards of signal security are maintained. FORSCOM regulation 350-3, Chapter 6, Section X, and Appendices C and D, applies.

Instruction relative to the individual's responsibility for safeguarding military information. FORSCOM regulation 350-3, Chapter 6, Section VIII, applies.

(3)
Individual and unit training in the collec­tion, production, and timely dissemination of usable intelligence. Emphasis should be placed upon analysis and evaluation of intelligence information at the lowest possible level. The FORSCOM Regula­tion 350-3, Chapter 6, Section II, applies.

c.
Maximum practicable use will be made of a competitive, uncooperative, and when feasible, larger-size OPFOR. To ensure maximum realism in training, OPPAR use of appropriate potential adversary tactics, doctrine, and force-ratios is recommended. Anny regulation 350-2 and

FORSCOM regulation 350-3, Chapter 6, Section IX,
and Appendix A, apply.

d.
Realism in counterintelligence measures to include the training for intelligence and counterintel­ligence activities in support of rear area security will be emphasized. The FORSCOM regulation 350-3, Chapter 6, Section VIII, applies.

e.
Battlefield surveillance and reporting through the use of sensors, and the integration of sensors into all combat and intelligence activities, will be emphasized.

f.
Units and individuals will receive continued instruction and training of interrogation of prisoners of vwar (IPW), with emphasis upon the proper handling of captured enemy documents and equipment. Maximum use of role players will be included in exercises to enhance the unit's capability to properly handle and interrogate enemy prisoners.

g.

CHAPTER 7 FORSCOM Form 253-R, Field Budget Estimate and Final Cost Report
7-1. Purpose and Scope This chapter lists cost reports required fi-om the FAA in conjunction with joint training exercises. These reports provide:
a. Cost information on which to base funding requirements for each exercise scheduled during the cun-ent fiscal year and to provide comparative data for future joint training exercises.
b.
Justification for fund increases if additional funding is required to cover the actual cost of the exercise, or for withdrawal and reprogramming of any savings that exist after tenninati 011 of the exercise.

c.
Data to update cost factors for developing budgetary estimates for future exercises.

7-2. Preparing Agency The FAA will prepare the consolidated Preliminary Planning Estimate (PPE), Preliminary Field Budget Estimate (PFBE), Field Budget Estimate (FBE) and Final Cost Report (FCR) for each joint training exercise. The FORSCOM Form 253-R, Field Budget' Estimate, Final Cost Report, will be used in preparing all reports except the PPE. FOFIT1S are available as camera-ready copies from local forms management office. Reports will be submitted to CDR, FORSCOM ATTN: AFOP-TR, 1777 Hardee Avenue, SW., Fort McPherson, GA 30330-1062.
7-3. Requirements
a.
The PPE will be prepared as a Memoran­dum or message. Report is due 30 days after receipt of the message appointing the FAA. The PPE will identify gross initial planning costs by element of expense. There is no requirement for detailed individual line entries. Purpose of this report is justify start-up funding to cover TDY travel, incremental costs of temporary office space, and other costs to be incun-ed more than 180 days from exercise start.

b.
A PBE, is due 180 days before the start of the exercise. The FAA will prepare a consolidated PBE that contains as a minhnum the gross amounts of estimates for OMA, Port Handling, and Inland Transportation required based on information available to the FAA at the time.

.
21, 816
c.
A detailed FBE is due 90 days before the start of the exercise. The FAA will prepare a FBE that consolidates costs for all FORSCOM units in an exercise. This estimate will be in as much detail as possible (see the example at Figure 7-1).

d.
A FCR is due 90 days or earlier after completion of the exercise. The FAA will submit a Final Cost Report that includes a consolidation of all OMA, CTP, PH, and IT costs chargeable to the exercise. This document will reflect a detailed accounting of actual obligations of exercise funds. An interim report is due by 15 October on all exercises that either cross fiscal years or end less than 90 days prior to the end of the current fiscal year.

e.
Specific suspense dates will be provided for each report in the FAA appointing message. Announced suspense dates are firm unless amended by CDR, FORSCOM, ATTN: AFOP-TR, 1777 Hardee Avenue, SW., Fort McPherson, GA 30330-'062.

7-4. Number of Copies and Routing
Two copies are required by CDR, FORSCOM,
ATTN: AFOP-TR, 1777 Hardee Avenue, SW., Fort
McPherson, GA 30330-1062.

7-5. Security Classification
Exercise dates and/or forces participating may be
classified. Funding estimates will be classified if
exercise dates or forces are classified and shown on
the report.

7-6. Preparation Instructions

a.
Budget estimates are pre exercise estimates prepared by the FAA for funds required to finance the joint exercise. (Figure 7-1 is an example of a complete Field Budget Estimate.) To give the FAA control as well as flexibility in performing the mission, the FAA will sub allocate funds available for conducting joint exercises. Other participating installation commanders will then request their funds from the FAA by furnishing required justification. Army regulation 37-1 will apply. Direct communication between participating instal-lation commanders and the FAA is authorized.

b.
All recipients of obligation authorities and fund citations for joint exercises will comply with AR 37-1, AR 37-18, and special accounting instructions of the issuing authority. Difficulties encountered by the FAA in noncompliance with these instructions by installations should be submitted to CDR, FORSCOM, 1777 Hardee Avenue, SW., Fort McPherson, GA 30330-1062 for resolution.

d.
The FAA may establish accounting procedures that will ensure the segregation, identifi-

cation, and accurate reporting of funded costs applicable to each of the cost elements listed on FORSCOM Form 253-R.

e.
Preparation of budget estimates, use of fimds and obligation of funds sub-allocated to finance joint exercise requirements will be IAW finance and accounting directives and AR 350-28. Joint exercise funds will be used only for the Army incremental costs directly associated with the exercise and for those purposes that further the accomplishment of exercise objectives. Installation commanders of participating units will provide the FAA with appropriate funds to cover requirements for supplies that are considered a normal responsibility chargeable to installation funds. This amount will generally represent the total of the amounts subtracted from gross estimated costs developed in F-6f, below. The FAA will issue specific instructions to participating units to implement the funding action.

f.
The FORSCOM Form 253-R, Section B, will show amounts in even dollars opposite the appropriate element of expense (EOR). The report should be totaled and balanced both vertically and horizontally. Justification for each EOE indicated will be furnished on a separate appendix or enclosure. Costs involving more than one fiscal year will be separately identified. Deviations in the final cost report of plus or minus 10 percent from budget estimate will be explained. Costs not included on the final cost report will be absorbed by the appropriate installation commander. Forces Com-mand allocation and withdrawal of funds will be based upon funded costs reported in the FAA budget estimate and final cost report. Performance factors such as tonnage and number of passengers must be captured and reported in the final cost report. The following detailed data is required to support FORSCOM Form 253-R (see Figure7-1):

(1)
TDY Travel. Number of officers, enlisted personnel, and civilian personnel traveling; round trip mileage; destination; mode of travel; number of days at TDY station; and transportation, per diem, and total costs. (TDY travel for exercise observers/visitors is not chargeable to exercise funds.)

CHAPTER 8
Weather Support
8-1. General This chapter outlines the means by which weather services will be provided to Army forces. It describes the mutual support and coordination responsibilities of the Air Force Weather (AFW) and supported Army units. Weather information and service required by FORSCOM units participating in joint exercises are provided or arranged for by the Air Combat Command (ACC). The ACC weather personnel are attached to supported Army units IAW AR 115-10/AFJI 15-157 (Weather Support for the
U.S. Anny). Weather support requirements will be coordinated with the staff weather officer assigned to the command concerned.
8-2. Normal field Weather Support Requirements
a. Corps and division requirements.
(1) Staff weather support to the commander.
(2)
Forecasting and briefing services at the tactical operations center (TOC).

(3) Observing services at airfields.

(4)
Air crew weather briefing service at the aviation brigade TOC.

b. Armored Cavalry reghnent requirements.
(1) Staff weather support to the commander.

(2)
Forecasting and briefmg services at the aviation squadron TOC.

(3)

8-3. Weather Support Element Mission Provides information on past, current, and future weather conditions which will enable supported Anny commanders to exploit the tactical advantages which might be afforded by those weather condi-tions.
8-4. Concept of Weather Support Army forces will be supported by attached weather support elements tailored to meet operational requirements for weather support according to the following criteria:
a.
Organized and operated under central control (the staff weather officer of the senior Army commander will supervise all weather support elements attached to subordinate Army forces).

b.
Collocated with major command and control elements and tied into existing weather facilities

which could be realistically expected to exist under the general situation of the exercise and as depicted in exercise plan.
c. Mobility comparable to forces supported.
d. Clearly defined functions and responsi­bilities for each weather support element.
8-5. Exercise Planning
Exercise directors should include staff weather
officers in all phases of exercise planning.
Participation of weather personnel in planning
activities serves to:
a.
Ensure early consideration of climatology in development of plans.

b.
Permit concurrent planning of weather support tailored to meet exercise requirements.

c.
Ensure availability of advice and assistance on weather implications of the exercise.

8-6. Weather Annexes All operational plans should contain a weather annex outlining in specific terms the weather support required, how the support will be provided, and all assistance required of the supported command. In addition to the weather annex, certain "weather inputs" should be included in other portions of operational plans to facilitate planning. Some major inputs are as follows:
a.
The ACC should be tasked to provide Or arrange for weather services required by Army forces.

b.
The communications annex should reflect the specific weather communications requirements to include mobile facilities, if applicable.

c.
The logistics annex should provide for support of weather personnel.

d.
The transportation annex should provide for transportation of weather personnel and equipment to, from, and within exercise locations.

8-7. Deployment and Redeployment of Weather
Personnel
Weather personnel will accompany supported forces to and from exercise areas. Movement orders for attached weather personnel will be issued by the supported Army commander. If weather personnel join the supported force in the exercise area, the servicing Air Force Military Personnel Flight (MPF) will arrange for or issue orders for weather personnel.
8-8. Funding The FAA will include the cost of Anny weather support in the exercise budget. Budgeting and funds for weather support forces collocated with, or attached to FORSCOM installations, will be provided

000831
DOD-046040
IAW paragraph 2-3, above. Weather support force augmentees will be provided or arranged by ACC. Orders will be issued or arranged for by the servicing MPF.
8-9. Equipment and Supplies
a. The ACC will provide meteorological equipment and supplies.
b. Supported Army units will provide:
(I)
Common items of equipment and expend­able supplies, both initial and recurring stock.

(2)
Organizational equipment as required for the exercise by the ist WG units.

8-10. Communications
a.
The Army or joint command will provide, operate, and maintain mobile weather communica­tions (including interface with circuits, terminal equipment, and service) required from the designated Theater Deployable Communications (TDC) interface point to tactical locations.

b.
The U.S. Air Force or joint command will provide in-theater communications support down to the designated TDC interface point.

CHAPTER 9
Claims
9-1. General This chapter describes procedures for processing claims for joint exercise damages and establishes the following policies:

a.
Maneuver damage claims are payable either under AR 405-15 or AR 27-20. All claims will be processed and investigated as expeditiously as possible.

b.
Accidents and incidents will be investigated as required by AR 27-20, paragraph 2-3c, and information required by paragraph 2-8, above, will be ascertained as soon as possible after the occurrences. Information requirements of AR 27-40 will apply.

c.
Prompt and courteous service will be extended to all claimants and potential claimants.

d.
Claims offices will be located to provide maximum accessibility and convenience to potential claimants. The area claims office may designate special claims processing offices and may delegate approval authority.

e.
Nonnally the Maneuver Claims Director will be the Division Claims Judge Advocate.

f.
Coordination with all civil agencies and military departments will be completed during the planning stage.

9-2. Procedures
a.
All incidents with the exception of those occurring on permit land generated by participating commands, stations, and units, including joint task force headquarters will be investigated by the Maneuver Claims Director or his appointed representative IAW paragraph H-lb, above, and referred to the designated command for adjudication and settlement. Incidents occurring on permit land will be investigated by the respective Corps of Engineers personnel, IAW AR 405-15.

b.
Engineer claims procedures (AR 405-15) will be used to the maximum extent possible. Under Engineer procedures, an SF Forni 95, Claim For Damage, Injury or Death need not be filed to effect settlement; however, if these procedures are unsuccessful, the non-nal AR 27-20 procedures will be followed. During the initial planning phase, the Exercise Director or designated representative, will program sufficient O&M funds for incidents occurring on permit lands. Immediate coordination with the exercise engineer/district engineer will be effected to ensure sufficient lead time to program the funds required. These procedures are to be emphasized at all stages of initial planning by the area claims authority, Exercise Director, or their appointed representatives.

c.
A memorandum of understanding concern­ing the operational and procedural aspects of exercise claims responsibility for a particular exercise may be executed. The area claims authority for an exercise, or designee, with the concun-ence of the Chief, U.S. Army Claims Service, Fort George G. Meade, MD 20755, may enter into and execute an agreement with representatives of other military services and Army elements concerned with maneuver claims activities for a particular exercise. This memorandum of understanding will be made a part of the claims annex to plans for the exercise.

d.
Liaison will be made with FORSCOM or TAC claims representatives regarding claims resulting from Air Force participation in the exercise and other claims to be processed through Air Force channels.

9-3. Responsibilities For joint exercises involving the use of non-government land, the FAA will:
a. Provide a Maneuver Claims Director (MDC), who will be an officer of The Judge Advocate General's Corps, and a sufficient number of other JAG officers with necessary personnel (enlisted

000832
37

or civilian), transportation, and equipment to staff the Maneuver Damage Control Center (MDCC) for investigation, processing, and settlement of maneuver claims. The MDC shall not serve in a dual capacity as the SJA for an exercise force without prior approval of HQ FORSCOM. The MDCC will generally be located with the exercise engineer or the district engineer.

b.
Establish pre maneuver liaison with the exercise engineer/district engineer to arrange coordi­nated operating procedures for tbe investigation and processing of claims, to obtain office space, and to provide other requirements necessary to support the MDCC. Pre maneuver training and orientation of claims personnel under command of the MDC and designated engineer personnel will be effected upon notice.

c.
'Establish and operate claims sub offices at appropriate and convenient locations.

d.
Arrange, through appropriate public infor­mation channels, for advance publicity in the exercise area, to acquaint the civilian population with the locations of the MDCC and sub offices and the procedures necessary for reporting incidents and filing claims.

e.
Provide for the preparation of claims instruction to participating units before the exercise begins and establish procedures for maintaining continuing liaison and coordination with the MDCC and participating units throughout the exercise and after. A point of contact should be established with each participating command, station, and unit for action required before and after completion of the exercise.

f Coordinate with the exercise engineer/dis­trict engineer and assist in the issue of land use permits. A premaneuver survey of the area will be conducted to ascertain existing damage or use and documented, as required. This includes roads, forests, bridges, fields (agricultural areas), water­ways, etc.
g. Arrange for furnishing appropriate engineer units to the neutral force that supports the maneuver claim mission when a neutral force is employed. The neutral force will work for the MDCC and the MDC for the damage mitigation and restoration requirements. The MDCC will maintain maps of the exercise locations and schedule teams to inspect and record incidents. In the event of any serious claim or damage, the MDCC will notify the MDC of any serious accident or damage. Incident reports will be collected daily and posted to the area map. Concentration of heavy maneuver damage will be identified and units cautioned to proceed with regard to damage. If a major accident occurs, engineer units
may perform immediate necessary repairs to public or private property during the course of and after the exercise. Repairs can only be completed with the permission of a landowner. The Maneuver Claims Office should be a party to any restoration activities and a release from the landowner should be coordinated and completed prior to initiating any restoration. These incidents and releases should be closely monitored by the MDC.
9-4. Transient Incidents Incidents occun-ing while a unit is in transit to or from an exercise area will be promptly investigated lAW with paragraph 9-1b, above (that is, by unit generating the claim). In addition, the unit claims officer will compile this infonnation and send it to his home installation claims office for processing under AR 27-20 and AR 27-40.
9-5. Maneuver Claims Plan In coordination with the U.S. Army Claims Service (as required by AR 27-20, para 1-7b(14) and 1-8c(4)), prepare a maneuver claims plan IAW the general guidance in this appendix and send the plan to Chief,
U.S. Army Claims Service, with an information copy to CDR, FORSCOM, ATTN: AFCG-JA, 1777 Hardee Avenue, SW., Fort McPherson, GA 30330-1062, NLT 45 days before the starting date of the exercise. Personnel augmentation and logistics support requirements for the claims organization will be included in the plan (RCS exempt, AR 335-15, para 7-2y).
9-6. Maneuver Claim After-Action-Report Send FORSCOM Form 254-R, Claims Status/Final Report, Exercise (Figure H-1), which summarizes all maneuver claim activities, to CDR, FORSCOM, ATTN: AFCG-JA, 1777 Hardee Avenue, SW., Fort McPherson, GA 30330-1062, NLT 100 days after termination of the exercise (RCS exempt: AR 335-15, para 7-2v). Local reproduction on 8" x 10-1/2" paper is authorized. A camera-ready copy is available from the local Forms Management Office.
CHAPTER 10
Communications-Electronics
10-1. General This chapter provides guidance and instructions concerning the responsibilities associated with com­munications-electronics (C-E) requirements in support of joint exercises. Commands and agencies of FORSCOM will provide C-E support to the
000833

exercise director/controller, JTF, friendly, opposing, and neutral forces, as required.
10-2. Policy
The C-E representative appointed by the FAA:

a.
Will represent FORSCOM in all Army C-E matters involved in all phases of the joint exercises.

b.
Is authorized direct coordination with C-E agencies/units as required for preparation and conduct of the exercise. The CDR, FORSCOM, ATTN: AFCI, 1777 Hardee Avenue, SW., Fort McPherson, GA 30330-1062, will be included as an infonnation addressee on all correspondence.

c.
Ensure communications support is planned with the concept of a "come-as-you-are" war. However, when C-E equipment/personnel/team shortages exist that cannot be supplied from the installation or units on the force list, specific requirements will be addressed to CDR, FORSCOM 1777 Hardee Avenue, SW., Fort McPherson, GA 30330-1062 IAW instructions contained in Chapter 2, above, and FORSCOM regulation 350-12. These requests will be in keeping with the concept of operations and addressed to the FORSCOM staff agency having primary support responsibility as follows:

(1)
Equipment-DCSLOG.

(2)
Personnel-DCSP1M

(3)
Conu-nunications Teams-CIO.

d.
Ensure all C-E requirements tasked to FORSCOM in the C-E Annex (Annex K) of the Joint Exercise Plan are satisfied.

10-3. FAA Duties

a.
Coordinate communications support for exercise forces, including the Army airspace management and Military Intelligence Battalion Air Reconnaissance Support (aerial exploitation) units.

b.
Provide personnel and equipment necessary to establish base and retransmission stations for the ground controller, stop-buzzer, and lifesaver nets.

c.
Provide personnel and equipment to operate an evaluator base station when required.

d.
Ensure participating Army forces are provided sufficient copies of appropriate authentication systems, operations codes, and other COMSEC material.

e.
Obtain radio frequency requirements from participating forces and send them to the joint forces frequency coordinator by the specified suspense date. After frequencies have been assigned by the frequency coordinator, a list of assigned frequencies and proposed net structure must be sent to National Security Agency (NSA) for publication in the Automated Communications-Electronics Operating

Instructions (CE01). Frequency data must be provided NSA at least 60 days before the in place date requested by the user. Failure to comply with the 60-day lead time could result in CEOI being issued without this information causing users to post frequencies manually (see AR 105-64 and FM 24-16). The services of the Frequency Spectrum Manager are available. Requests for this support should be addressed to the CDR, FORSCOM, ATTN: AFC1-TPM, 1777 Hardee Avenue, SW., Fort McPherson, GA 30330-1062.

f. Request for service (RFS) for leased circuits will be validated by the FAA before being sent through normal RFS channels (acquiring other validations as needed) to Defense Information Systems Network (DISN) Service Center (DSC), Scott AFB, IL. The FAA validation of the require­ment will be shown in item number 417 (remarks) of the RFS. Once the RFS is submitted and entered into the Teleconununications Certification Office Support System (TCOSS) for processing by the DSC, a program designator code (PDC) will be assigned by USASC DCSOPS to identify funding. The RFS must be submitted to the DSC with adequate lead time to ensure the commercial carrier has sufficient time to provide the service. Lead times are estab-lished by the Defense Information Systems Agency (DISA) and vary depending on the type of service and geographical location. The DISA publishes the required lead times in the DISAC 310-130-1 or they can be obtained from the DSC. No RFSs will be processed without FAA validation.
CHAPTER 11

000834
39

management and air traffic control during joint exercises.
11-2. Policy
a.
Full coordination between exercise propo­nent, participating services, and appropriate host nation airspace management agency will be accomplished to ensure acquisition of adequate special use airspace for conduct of exercises. Army requirements will be addressed to the Exercise Airspace Management Authority who will submit proposals to appropriate agencies. Early action must be initiated to permit coordination and circulation of airspace proposals. Six months is required for processing CONUS temporary special use airspace. OCONUS requirements may be greater.

b.
An airspace management system will be set up to ensure effective execution of Army functions involving air defense, air traffic regulation, tactical mission control, and fire support coordination. The coordinated rules and procedures established by the Airspace Management Authority will be imple­mented by the Anny. Specifically, these will include the following:

(1) Control points.
(2)

(10)
Designation of coordinating and/or separa­tion altitudes, based on tactical situation, mission requirements, and capabilities of services involved. Coordination/clearance procedures will ensure maxi­mum operating flexibility for commanders.

c.
Instrument and visual flight rules (IFR/VFR) will be IAW AR 95-1 and FORSCOM Supplement 1 to AR 95-1 unless deviations are authorized.

d.
Adequate flying hours for self-deployment, as applicable, and exercise participation will be included in the normal flying hour program by the aviation unit concerned.

e. Aviation safety will be integrated into all phases of exercise activity. Commanders will ensure mission play and decentralized control of aviation elements do not create an unsafe aviation environinent.
CHAPTER 12
Reserve Component Participation
12-1. General Reserve Component (RC) units are an integral part of the total force. RC units will participate in joint exercises when requested by the exercise CINC/sponsor as part of the WARTRACE trace for the given theater. In some instances, however, units may participate outside their WARTRACE if the units are available and will receive meaningful wartime training. The supported CINC or exercise sponsor will identify a type-unit requirement. The HQ FORSCOM will provide specific unit nominations. The CONUSA, the National Guard Bureau (for ARNG personnel), the U.S. Army Reserve Command (USARC) (for Reserve Personnel), the Active Component sponsor and gaining command should be involved in each decision on units proposed for exercise participation. Reserve Component participation in OCONUS training is governed by AR 350-9 and is coordinated by the Joint and Combined Training Exercise Branch (J&CTE), Training Division (AFOP-TRX) at HQ FORSCOM. Participation in CJCS and other specified exercises that are not coordinated as part of the ODT program are coordinated directly between HQ FORSCOM and CONUSA, USARC and/or NGB, as appropriate. Every effort will be made to provide RC units with a minimum of 18 months notice of selection for participation in a JTX.
12-2. Evaluation
a. Procedures/requirements for evaluating units are prescribed in FORSCOM/ARNG regulation 350-
2.
b.
The exercise FAA will provide required evaluators, conduct, and report results for evalua­tions conducted during CONUS exercises.

c.
For OCONUS exercises, the supported CINC is responsible for providing evaluators and conducting the evaluation under the provisions of AR 350-9.

12-3. OCONUS Exercises
a. All RC units and those AC units supporting RC 'higher headquarters are governed by the
0008 35

provisions of AR 350-9 and FORSCOM Supplement 1 to AR 350-9.
b. The OCONUS commands are required to update the FORSCOM 5-year ODT/Exercise Plan by
August annually for the second succeeding fiscal year and 4 out-years.
c.
Changes to the ODT Plan during the execu­tion year are submitted by OCONUS commands, Third U.S. Anny, and CONUS-based Corps through the conunands' ODT manager to CDR, FORSCOM, ATTN: AFOP-TR, 1777 Hardee Avenue, SW., Fort McPherson, GA 30330-1062.

d.
Participation in CJCS exercises in a trooplisted status will be approved by CDR, FORSCOM, AFOP-TRX, 1777 Hardee Avenue, SW., Fort McPherson, GA 30330-1062.

12-4. CONUS Exercises
a. The HQ FORSCOM (AFOP-TRX) will request the USARC and/or NGB, in coordination with the appropriate CONUSA, nominate units to fill requirements for CJCS or other specified exercises. The following criteria will be used to nominate and select units:
(1)
WARTRACE. Units should participate as part of their primary WARTRACE trace whenever possible.

(2)
Deployment. Priority consideration should be given to earlier deploying units of the scenario being exercised.

(3)
Training Status. Prior to recommending a unit for participation in JTX, peacetime commanders must consider unit capability, training needs, sche­dule and resources available.

(4)
Equipment Requirements. RC units partici­pating in a CONUS JTX will normally be required to arrive in the exercise site with all TOE equipment. Specific equipment instructions will be provided by the exercise sponsor as early as possible in the planning process.

(5)
Geographical Location. Proximity to an exercise location should be considered when funding is limited for participation; and/or travel time, in relation to the length, scope and training value to the unit of the exercise, is inappropriate.

(6)
Required TOE/MTOE. The RC units will be organized under the TOE/MTOE requested by the exercise sponsor unless the low density of such type-units in the force structure limits availability for exercise play. In the latter case, CONUSA may nominate substitute TOE/MTOE units; however, each such nomination will be specifically annotated as a substitute to the original requirement.

(7)
Waivers. The FORSCOM will consider waivers to the criteria above. Justifications for waivers must accompany unit nominations.

(2)
Forces Command will announce the scenario and units needed as part of the 5-year exercise plan.

(3)
The FAA will coordinate unit train-up, funding,. and transportation of scheduled units with the NGB and USARC, as appropriate.

12-5. Funding Exercise funds are provided JAW AR 350-28, AR 350-9, Chapter 4; and paragraphs 2-5 and 2-6, above.
12-6. Transportation

a.
CONUS. The FAA will coordinate trans­portation an-angements for all force listed units participating in a exercise. Details of movement policy are in Chapter 6 of this regulation.

b.
OCONUS. The FAA will coordinate trans­portation arrangements for all force listed units participating in a JTX. Coordination for movement of non force listed units' troops and/or equipment will be as directed by FORSCOM. Details of movement policy are in Chapter 6 of this regulation.

CHAPTER 17

Public Affairs
17-1. General This chapter provides guidance, defines responsibili­ties, and assigns tasks for the planning and execution of public affairs (PA) activities by FORSCOM units in conjunction with JTX.
a.
Purpose. The goals of PA are to keep the American public informed of military operations to the maximum extent consistent with OPSEC and personnel safety, to promote understanding and support of the military mission, and to achieve and maintain the best relations with all segments of the public -- internal and external (foreign and domestic).

b.
Policy. The PA policy will be determined by the Assistant Secretary of Defense for Public Affairs (OASD-PA) upon recommendation by the sponsoring CINC. Policy will depend on the nature of the exercise (CPX vs. FTX), visibility within the community, exercise objectives, and any sensitivities associated with the exercise.

c.
Organization. Exercise public affairs will generally be conducted by an Exercise Public Affairs Office or a Joint Infonnation Bureau (JIB), organized by the sponsoring Unified or Specified Command and answering to the Exercise Director. The role of the FAA participating units is to background information on Army/unit topics; information on Anny/unit participation in the exercise; provide support as required by sponsoring command, to include personnel to assist in planning; individual personnel augmentation for JIB/Sub JIB/Command Information Bureau (CIB) operations; and recommendations on the need for support from public affairs detachments (PADs).

DOD-046052
APPENDIX A
Obligation Guidelines for Army CJCS Exercise Funds
A-1. Exercise OMA are provided to cover added costs of participation in a CJCS approved exercise. A simple "rule of thumb" to apply in determining appropriateness for obligating exercise funds is to ask if the service or item will remain useable after conclusion of the exercise. If the service or item is useable, exercise funds probably should not be used.
A-2. Examples of costs which are not appropriate charges to exercise funds include:
a. Purchase of computers, fax machines, beepers, and copiers. These items may be less expense to buy than to lease in the short term. However, when maintenance, shipping, accounting and perishable technology is considered they result in great cost to the U.S. government.
