  2-44. The coordination process shown in figure 2-1, pages 2-10 through 2-12, for the PRCSs at Army unit
  headquarters (theater army, corps, and division) and functional commands may also be used as a guide for
  the personnel recovery officer at brigade level and the staff officer at battalion.
  1. Administrative setup.
  a. Task-organize. Select the staff of with the appropriate area of expertise and augment as
  required. Assign based on expected risk. When working with a joint task force, include a director, a
  deputy director, and controllers.
  b. Develop a work schedule. Consider 24-hour operations, the potential for split-based operations
  (personnel recovery expertise at a main command post and a tactical command post or other command
  post), and the requirement to accompany the commander or a recovery force while staffing a personnel
  recovery coordination section (PRCS) at the protection or the movement and maneuver cell.
  c. Obtain reference documents. Establish a reference library with hard and electronic copies of the
  necessary documents to maintain situational awareness. Include theater, command, and unit standard
  operating procedures, policies, and rules of engagement. Maintain a master list, including regulations,
  plans, orders, points of contact, and instructions.
  d. Check computers and communications equipment. Establish a direct or shared access to voice,
  image, and data systems to support situational awareness. Conduct the required user training. Identify
  the points of contact for equipment support. Establish liaison with operators of other systems.
  e. Set up a personnel recovery identification system. Use PRCS standard operating procedures or
  other source documents. Establish a system for tracking activities of the PRCS to support situational
  awareness, meet recordkeeping requirements, and support after action reviews.
