  Combat Service Support Automated Information Systems Interface/Very Small Aperture
  Terminal operations.
   Anticipate cyber threats/attacks – cyber threats or attacks on automation and communications
  systems will deny, degrade, and disrupt PASR and the casualty tracking and reporting flow.
  Only contingency for degraded HR systems is the use of manual data entry/delivery.
   Refine SOPs 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.
   Plan for the inability to feed the commander’s COP with appropriate information. Timeliness
  and accuracy of PERSTAT reports will likely be degraded during LSCO, which limits
  responsiveness to supported units.
   Plan for possibility of corps G-1/AGs and division G-1s degraded over time with focus and
  requirements shifting back to corps/division to fight as formations during LSCO
  (defensive/offensive). Therefore, casualty reporting, PASR, strength management, and HR
  support to replacement operations may require additional SRC 12 (theater HR organizations)
  support at echelon.
   Plan for reintegration of the rear detachment.
  BRIGADE AND BATTALION S-1
  7-105. Human resources planning considerations for the brigade and battalion S-1 during operations to
  consolidate gains may include, but are not limited to––
  * PASR:
   Manage personnel asset visibility – maintain PASR of Soldiers and DOD and DA Civilians.
   Plan for S-1 personnel to accompany the advance party to maintain PASR while redeploying,
  if applicable.
   Plan for manual PASR during degraded and disconnected operations.
   Plan to provide liaisons at inter-theater APODs to track unit personnel flow.
  * 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 the S-3 and S-4 for operational and logistics support during replacement
  operations.
  * Postal operations:
   Collect and forward mail for missing, deceased, or wounded Soldiers to the APO for further
  processing.
   Reassess mail flow and unit responsibilities in receiving mail.
   Complete and submit change of address cards if redeploying.
  * HR support to casualty operations:
   Plan for DCIPS/Casualty reporting – Brigade and battalion capacity during operations to
  consolidate gains will likely require adjustments to reporting/timeliness expectations from the
  increased volume (mass casualties) and degraded communication capabilities during LSCO
  (defensive/offensive).
   Maintain lines of communication with casualty elements and casualty collection areas to
  monitor casualty reporting and transportation of remains.
  * Other HR considerations:
   Conduct EPS as the commander directs and as operational conditions allow (for example,
  wartime standards for promotion, posthumous awards, citizenship applications for Soldiers,
  stop loss/stop move).
   Provide MWR support for prolonged operations to consolidate gains.
   Manage completion of LOD investigations.
