  HR COMPANY/HR PLATOON
  3-74. The HR company HQ provides command and control as well as administrative and operational support
  to the TG PAT and forward operating HR squads conducting personnel accountability missions. At the
  APOD, the operations section provides data integration support and the HR platoons manage the HR squads
  conducting personnel accountability missions.
  3-75. The HR platoon is a multi-functional platoon with the capability to leverage HR squads to conduct
  personnel accounting or HR support to casualty operations missions, depending on mission requirements.
  This capability increases the mission flexibility and its ability to support the theater personnel accounting or
  casualty operations mission. Refer to ATP 1-0.2 for specific personnel accounting responsibilities of the HR
  company and HR platoon.
  HR SQUAD (MULTI-FUNCTIONAL)
  3-76. Human resources squads execute personnel accountability team missions. One HR squad has the
  capability to capture personnel accounting data up to 600 personnel entering, transiting, or departing the
  APOD or from an intra-theater APOD. Each HR platoon can process up to 1,800 personnel per day. Refer to
  ATP 1-0.2 for specific personnel accounting responsibilities of the HR squad with a personnel accounting
  mission.
  BATTLEFIELD FLOW
  3-77. The ASCC G-1/AG establishes theater policy for personnel strength reporting to include reporting
  standards and timelines. Coordination with the ASCC G-6 is necessary to ensure access to NIPRNET and
  SIPRNET is established for required HR databases and systems. During LSCO, strength managers must be
  prepared to operate with limited or no connectivity because the operational environment will likely result in
  disconnected, degraded, or disrupted communications access. The ASCC G-1/AG at echelons must establish
  alternate methods of passing critical information by developing and rehearsing alternate, contingency, and
  emergency plans to ensure continuity for personnel strength reporting.
  * The early entry element of the TPOC establishes the DTAS and initiates database hierarchy
  management.
  * The HR company, supported by a TG PAT and subordinate platoons, establishes theater personnel
  accounting operations at theater reception points (APOD/sea port of debarkation) as they transit
  the theater.
  * The HR company with the TG PAT ensures all personnel and units arriving in theater are
  accurately entered in DTAS. For unit arrivals, the S-1 normally provides a copy of their unit’s
  database, which the TG PAT then uploads into DTAS.
  * Units have primary responsibility for the strength reporting of their formation, but SRC 12
  formations are located at critical points on the battlefield to improve personnel accountability.
  3-78. The TG PAT enters all arriving personnel (Soldiers, DOD and DA Civilians, and CAAF) and units in
  the system to ensure accurate personnel strength reporting throughout the duration of theater-level operations.
  As units and individuals arrive in theater, the HR squad assigned the personnel accounting mission, which
  directly affects the effectiveness of deployed personnel strength reporting, records their arrival in theater.
  The S-1 sections perform all personnel accounting tasks within their elements for small-scale movements
  conducted within the brigade AO and in movement to the intra-theater APOD where no HR organization
  assets are assigned. Units are ultimately responsible for the reported status of their entire formation.
  SECTION III – HR SUPPORT TO REPLACEMENT OPERATIONS
  3-79. This section describes HR support to replacement operations’ mission, proponency, flow of
  replacements, and standards and principles of support. It also describes how the Army intends to establish
  and operate a theater Army non-unit related personnel (individual) replacement system.
