Suggest that OLW OPT get the same from MFCOM or USFFC planners. - Medical brought up great point about shift in USMC/USN posture for MED BN going to 15 DOS vice 30 for Class VIII and how that 3rd party contract support will effect a MEB sized element. Within our window we can trigger re-order at D+5 to at least explore what that means.. - Medical also wants to provide or be provided a caps/lims sheet for all ambulatory and casevac platforms for education. - Across the board we need to educate folks on Log C2 systems.. - GCCS MC inclusion and what it means to everyone?
