text: HR Support and HR Planning Considerations during the Army Strategic Roles
   Develop corps/division casualty notification and assistance program policy.
   Plan for and train on procedures for manual casualty reporting in preparation for degraded
  and disconnected operations.
   Develop summary court martial officer and LOD procedures for theater.
   Train personnel on the usage of the MPTk, and to receive permission to download and install
  the software. Ensure the organization has trained personnel available to access and operate
  these programs.
  * Other HR considerations:
   Coordinate HR support requirements with supporting ESC and sustainment brigades.
   Produce annexes and commander’s estimates.
   Build, modify, and coordinate the personnel services portion of the task force deployment
  plan.
   Plan for the integration of RC assets.
   Plan and coordinate MWR and command interest programs.
   Provide HR guidance and training to brigade and battalion S-1s.
   Plan and coordinate early – establishment of SOPs required to determine type and frequency
  of data in the event of information systems black out. Manual use of logging actions will be
  the only alternative for HR systems.
  BRIGADE AND BATTALION S-1
  7-17. Human resources planning considerations for the brigade and battalion S-1 during operations to shape
  may include, but are not limited to—
  * PASR:
   Plan for and train on procedures for manual PASR in preparation for degraded and
  disconnected operations.
   Plan for S-1 personnel to accompany advance parties to maintain PASR while deploying.
   Plan to provide liaisons at inter-theater APODs to track unit personnel flow.
   Establish HR systems for reporting with command nodes.
  * HR support to replacement operations:
   Identify and report critical MOS and key leader shortages to higher echelons.
   Identify secondary MOS of assigned Soldiers for potential backfills.
   Maintain and assess Soldier and unit readiness.
   Coordinate with S-3 and S-4 during replacement operations for operational and logistics
  support.
  * Postal operations:
   Plan for and train on procedures for handling casualty mail (mass casualties).
   Designate unit mail clerks and postal officers.
   Refine unit mail SOPs.
   Identify mail capabilities and restrictions.
   Advise commanders and staff on unit mailroom operations.
   Identify mail flow and unit responsibilities in receiving mail.
  * HR support to casualty operations:
   Advise and train commanders and staff on casualty reporting procedures.
   Train on DCIPS/casualty reporting (manual reporting) in preparation for possible degraded
  and disconnected operations.
   Establish lines of communication with casualty liaison personnel and casualty collection areas
  to monitor casualty reporting and transportation of remains.
