Inspectors
Load Planners- plan all the chalks, before the equipment gets put
on the plane there is a Joint Inspection between
the Air Force and Navy to ensure accurate
dimensions and weights.
HAZMAT Certifier- has to go to HAZMAT school
needs a C.O.’s designation letter

AACG responsible for receiving all airlifted items, the AACG is also responsible for
ensuring orderly and timely movement of personnel, equipment, and material from the
airfield to the deployment site
DACG responsible for controlling all items to be airlifted, the DACG makes sure that the
flow of personnel, material, equipment is smooth and efficient when called from the alert
holding area to the call forward area
AACG/DACG is responsible for providing security, food service, rest areas, and
recreation areas when required
Chalks/loads consist of Passengers, CESE, Pallets
Before equipment leaves the marshalling area there is a joint inspection between Air

Convoy control officers: (SUCMAT)
o Convoy commander- responsible for the convoys action during
movement. He initiates the march, issues and enforces march orders, and
supervises the movement.
o Serial commander- is in charge of the serial column when it is detached
from the march column.
o Unit commander- when detached from a serial column he is in-charge
o Advance officer- precedes the column and is in charge of the point in
tactical ops. Non-tactical operations reconnoiters the route of march
selects alternate routes posts traffic control personnel, and notifies proper
authorities of the approach of the column
o Maintenance officer-rear of convoy
o Pace setter- maintains the speed of the convoy sa directed by the convoy
commander, is in the lead vehicle
o Trail officer-post warning flags, picks up guides, checks convoy
discipline, ensure care is given to any injured personnel
o Vehicle commander- is in charge of vehicles with troops on board,
o Guides- posted at critical intersections when on non-tactical convoys
o Escorts- can be military police or other personnel for a non-tactical
convoy, during a tactical convoy may be armed guards, armed aircraft
infantry, armored units as required to protect or accompany the convoy
Three divisions in a convoy
o March columns- is composed of the entire convoy including all elements
using the same route for a single movement
o Serial columns- is a major subdivision of a march column, it is limited to
20 vehicles
o Unit columns- is a subdivision of a serial column, it is limited to 10
vehicles or less

Vehicle breaks down if friendly area and cannot fix it offload personnel/cargo onto another
truck and pick it up later, if in hostile area offload personnel/cargo to
another truck and disable vehicle so the enemy cannot use it against us
Take on sniper fire
return fire and drive thru it, call in to higher authority
Near side ambush
return fire and drive thru if possible, if a vehicle gets disabled the two
vehicles in front and in back flank the aggressors the disabled vehicle
disembarks the vehicle and returns fire

PATROLS-are planned similar to convoys, the patrol is briefed using a SMEAC read off by the
patrol leader, a terrain model is used, there is also a overlay in the COC.
Patrol leader-
in charge of patrol, usually in the middle of patrol formation for
better control
Asst. patrol leader- in the back of the patrol formation, takes control if patrol leader is a
casualty
Grenadier
protects the patrol leader, has a M-203
Comm
has a AN/PRC 119 with whip antenna, close to patrol leader
Point man
is the first person in the patrol formation, warns patrol of possible
danger areas
Navigator
has a compass and map, tells the point the right direction
Pace man
usually three members in a patrol are pace counters
Security
the main body of the patrol
Rear security
the last person in the patrol formation, protects the rear of the patrol

Unmasking procedures:
If M256A1 are is available and results are negative select two or three Seabees of different builds (collect
their weapons) and have them unmask for five minutes breathing normally with their eyes open then don
their mask, observe them for ten minutes for symptoms, if no symptoms give the all clear and return their
weapons.
When M256A1 kit is not available have Seabees take a deep breath and hold it, break the seal on their
mask for 15 seconds keeping their eyes open, reseal their mask and observe them for 10 minutes, if no
symptoms have the same Seabees break the seals on their masks and take a couple of deep breaths then
reseal their masks, monitor them for 10 minutes, if no symptoms have the same Seabees take their masks
off for 5 minutes if no symptoms appear in 10 minutes intiate unmasking for unit
First Aid
Examining a victim
Check for bleeding, airway, and shock.
If chemical or biological attack mask victim immediately. If nerve
agent is present give the victim their NAAK kit. If chemical attack
do not expose wounds.
Moving a victim
A general rule, make preliminary examination in position and
place you found them. Moving the victim could result in death.
Only move the victim as a last result.
Shock
