renders future interrogation futile. If you are engaged in, or supervising the tactical questioning of EPWs, you are responsible for ensuring that EPWs are treated in accordance with the requirement of international and US law. Any tactical questioning conducted must be in response to the supported commander's PIR. At this level the brigade S2 must maintain secure communication with interrogation
personnel to ensure requirements are answered. Except under extreme weather conditions, and MP availability, it is not necessary to keep EPWs within the confines of a building or other shelter at battalion level since they will not remain for more than a few hours before being evacuated. The capturing unit escorts or transports EPWs or detainees to the nearest collection point, and turns them over to the MP. Interrogators in DS of the brigade will screen and categorize all EPWs or detainees, question them, and report information obtained in response to brigade PIR, IR, and SIR. They will do this under timeconstraints, as all EPWs or 6 eta inees must be evacuated without delay.

sustainment of the soldier. Each company-sized unit will have two cooks and a small, state-of-the-art field
kitchen. This provides a limited capability to prepare or heat meals and supplements. An improved
containerized capability for providing responsive laundry and shower support well forward on the

combat. A facility complex (Force Provider) will be available in which they can shower, clean their clothes,
eat hot meals, and rest in an environmentally controlled shelter.

c. The commander is responsible for establishing leadership climate of the unit and developing disciplined
and cohesive units. This sets the parameters within which command will be exercised and, therefore, sets
the tone for social and duty relationships within the command. _ (1) Commanders and other leaders
committed to the professional Army ethic promote a positive environment. If leaders show loyalty to their

soldiers, the Army, and the Nation, they earn the loyalty of their soldiers. If leaders consider their soldiers'
needs and care for their well

-
being, and if they demonstrate genuine concern, these leaders build a
positive command climate. (2) Duty is obedient and disciplined performance. Soldiers with a sense of duty accomplish tasks given them, seize opportunities for self-improvement, and accept responsibility from their superiors. Soldiers, leader and led alike, work together to accomplish the mission rather than
feed their self-interest..
