text: Responsibilities and Supporting Tools
  * Prepare to conduct interoperable and cooperative personnel recovery operations with partners,
  including leveraging HN capabilities to rescue personnel unilaterally whenever possible.
  * Assess policies, processes, and programs that influence commanders’ ability to conduct
  personnel recovery operations; recommend actions to enhance personnel recovery capabilities.
  * Ensure that subordinate commanders routinely address actions planned when personnel become
  isolated.
  * Support the personnel recovery executive agent and others in the collection, reporting, and
  dissemination of personnel recovery lessons learned.
  * Provide the results of inspections that include findings or observations that pertain to personnel
  recovery activities to the personnel recovery executive agent.
  2-31. PRCSs at the division, corps, and theater levels coordinate with the JPRC and perform the following
  tasks associated with joint operations:
  * Advise, assist, facilitate, standardize, and coordinate personnel recovery matters with other
  departments and agencies of the USG in the joint operations area.
  * Contribute personnel recovery-related data and information to the central historical repository
  and archive and reference library, managed by the JPRA.
  * Prepare to establish a JPRC if directed or if designated as the joint force supported commander
  for personnel recovery. This will not negate the requirement to perform Army PRCS functions
  as well. This requires personnel recovery staffs maintain education, training, and staffing
  requirements.
  * Coordinate isolated personnel authentication procedures with the JPRC and disseminate them in
  ISG and subordinate personnel recovery contingency plans.
  * Provide the JPRC with augmentees trained in personnel recovery as directed. These personnel
  assist in coordinating and deconflicting the Army’s personnel recovery capabilities at the joint
  level.
  * Provide mutual support to the recovery operations of the other Services to the greatest extent
  possible. Normally the JPRC requests and coordinates such support.
  * Ensure unit PRCS SOPs align with JPRC and theater army personnel recovery contingency
  operations.
  * Gather and disseminate information concerning personnel recovery assets and capabilities to
  adjoining PRCSs and the JPRC.
  2-32. PRCSs at the division, corps, and theater levels perform the following tasks associated with training:
  * Ensure that military, Army civilians, and CAAF receive personnel recovery training
  commensurate with their level of risk for becoming isolated or exploited.
  * Ensure personnel recovery education and training preparation efforts keep pace with changes in
  the operational area.
  * Clearly define the circumstances needed to initiate SERE activities.
  * Ensure subordinate units and key personnel—such as the PRCSs, personnel at risk of isolation,
  and recovery forces—are familiar with unit SOPs, personnel recovery TTP, and directives.
  2-33. PRCSs at the division, corps, and theater levels perform the following tasks associated with
  coordination:
  * Coordinate for personnel recovery section support throughout the headquarters, including the
  main command post, the tactical command post (where established), and any ad hoc facility,
  such as a contingency or early entry command post.
  * Coordinate and support joint, multinational, HN, and interagency personnel recovery activities.
  * Coordinate for theater of operations and national intelligence support to personnel recovery
  activities.
  * Ensure that subordinate units are familiar with other PRCSs and immediately transmit
  information on isolated personnel to the PRCS that coordinates personnel recovery operations.
  2-34. PRCSs at the division, corps, and theater levels perform the following tasks associated with support:
