EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

ADKINORGANIZATION

The Administration Department continued to provide outshystandipound1 services despite mar~inal staffing IndividuaY--shydedlca on and many overtime ours by all personnel served to provide the SAme qua1ity and range of services without a reduction in quantity Of particu1ar note was the Increased emphasis and success with Adlldnistrative Discharge Boards and rapid Article 15 hearings Significant orianizatlonal changes occurred during Gold III These changes a fected bOth the Blue and Gold Teams and have been highly successful Com~site Compant was divided into the more traditional Alfa and charl e companies prior to deployment The wIiCJOm of this choice of organization was proven on the Field exercise in Dec 79 and again on deployment It has provided higher visibility to and a wider base for both vertical construction and CESB operationsmaintenance A closer knit and harmonious workinf cadre resulted in each of the companies and achieved outstand ng results Another significant organishyzational change occurred in May BO when approval was received for the Co111111And Staff to initiate of f-cycle deployment so that equal time could be expended with each team The Gold Team with an Officer-in-Charge was officially establiiihed thUii freeing major command and staff members to focus prior-i ties where required Of less visibility but no less importshyant was the initiation of off-cycle detlo~nt for the command career counampelor This profess on~y trained indivshyiCSual now spends equal ti111e with both teau lie applies his expertise in late deployment and early homeport periods on respective teAlllS when llUlximum personnel turnover occurs and retention decisions are being made by individuals This modus operandi has a l so proven to be highly effective See enclosure (4)

TRAXNIHG

ampxcellent ailita~traininq facilities and professional assistance were aval le and utilized Of significance was trainln9 obtained in small unit leadership on firing ranges Technical Training centered on on-the-job training when weather periltted and classroom lectures at other times The communications and ordnance unctions were completely overshyhauled during deployment and significant problems so1vecr-at the prilllary 1itea (Okinawa and Subic) Several Command Training Teaaa were trained and certified while on deployment and have already proven their worth In providing in-houae training to the Cltgt=Nlnd A petty officer third class indoctrination course wa1 developed presented and well recilvid 6Y newly appointed membirs Readiness training for the entire command is proceeding and should peik In approximately six months See enclosure (5)

OPERATIONS

Construction operations were severly hampered by inclement weather on Okinawa during early deployment and IwakUJU during the entire deployment Several long standing rainfall frequency and amount records were established at both sites Despite late and significant tasking changes inclement weather and material and fundin roblems all sites sucshyceeded in completint the ma orit of tas ed work Emphasis at all levels was p aced on qua ity and safe--construction The late deployment infusion of personnelfromthe returned Det Diego Garcia provided much needed direct labor at all sites Financial accountability and control of construction operations was an area of concentration during this deployment all funding problems have been either identified or solved See enclosure (6)

SUPPLYLOGISTICS

The Supply Department continued the reputation of outstanding support to line and staff functions The Supply Management Inspection during deployment resulted in a grade of outshystanding Several facility improvements were made tO-shysupply spaces much stock was inventoried and purged and a closed loop management ampastern between supply functions and customers was iriltiate bull The EDF continued to serve the best meals in the Pacific BEOManafement flourished with maximwn cooperation between the chan of command and the BEQ staff much needed BEQ collateral equirment was received and put in service See enclosure (7 bull

EQUIPMENT

The major emphasis in CESE management was ~ualitt workmanship and the CESE upgrade program Hampering t is ef ort was the disruption caused by the major repairs to the equipment maintenance shops Through careful planning and personal effort by all personnel the CESE upgrade program for Okinawa remained on schedule and a significant iinprovement to the PM-to- interilD repair ratio occurred The preservation program for eqUlpment in dead storage was selected as an area of concentration results were outstanding However a problem still exists with adequate cleaning facilities at the storage facility at Camp Kinser (formerly Makiminato) water service steam cleaning and petrolewn product environshymental control still do not exist at that site Funding constraints and benepoundit cost analysis will not support these features See enc osure (8)

ADMINISTRATION

1 Lessons learned

a Problem~Item The Operational Readiness Inspection (ORI) was con ucted approximately 5 weeks after the beginshyning of the deployment

1 Discussion Significant time and effort was necesshysary to prepare for this inspection It came at a most inopportune time early deployment confusion E-3 and below evaluations due 31 January quarterl y reports due in Jan ale

2 ActionRecommendation While it is recognized that travel fund conatrilnts forced the inspection to be conducted at this time it nevertheless forced the battalion to devote too much time at a cr1tical stage of deployment to the inspection effort It is strongly recommended that all inspections (ORI Air Det ect) be conducted about lllid depshyloyment timeframe to avoid crisis managementbull preparation

2 Narrative

Manning for the Gold III deployment consisted of the following 1 LTJG 1 PNl 2 PN3 1 PN2 (Subic Bay Det) 2 YNl (1 transferred in Jun) 2 YNl s and 1 YN3 (Operations YN) In addition to supporting one ha1f of the battalion Gold team is additionally tasked with maintaining the batshytalion diaries (officer and enlisted) and all battalion personnel assignments All administrative personnel and legal functions were conducted in a timely efficient manner Legal support afforded the battalion on deployment to Okinawa (lawyer appointments court martial scheduling and proceedings) were most timely While deployed a court martial can be scheduled and completed within l-2 months the same process in homeport takes approximately 4-6 months to complete Additiona1ly office equipment repairs (typeshywriters and duplicating machine) were expeditiously handled (within 3 hours of reported breakdown) In concert with a strong retention program NMCB THREE began an extensive indoctrination program for all new personnel assigned to the battalion Information relative to deployment sites battalion organization rotation schedules ect are provided all personnel upon receipt of orders Welcome aboard messages information packages and sponsor letters are a1so provided once a man has been assigned to THREE A comprehensive indoctrination program follows shortly after arrival thus ensuring a member is fu11y aware of a l l services provided and exactly who is responsible for providing those services This program is expected to poy high dividends in retention and morale within the bulleetter Than Best Battalionbull

MEDICAL

TOTAL PATIENTS VISITS 2033

HOSPITAL CASES 11

SIGNIFICANT EVENTS

(1) During the deployment there was a marked increase in out-patient health care delivery workload which can be directly attributed towards more accessible sickcall hours and recent trends towards viewing medical care as a right rather than a privilege

(2) An Interservice Support Agreement with the Naval Regional Medical Center Okinawa enhanced the procurement of medical material from a six month requisition to three days for routine supplies and one day for emergency supplies or contingencies In addition the aforementioned agreement provided resources which significantly improved the battalions occupationalindustrial and preventive medicine readiness

(3) Refurbishment and replacement of medical equipshyment through constant research and inquiry aided the Medical Department in setting up a medical laboratory and X-ray department in order to meet mission requirements and commitshyments

4) In conjunction with the Battalion Safety Policy Committee a Chemical Control Committee was established to identify properly handle and dispose of hazardous chemical agents used onboard the camp

DENTAL

PATIENTS TREATED 206

TOTAL PROCEDURES 389

SIGNIFICANT EVENTS

The Battalion Dental Officer and dental technicians normally remain in homeport to provide dental care and screening for the homeport team All personnel are screened early in homeport to identify any dental problems which must be corrected prior to deployment Approximately midway through the deployment the Dental Officer and his staff travel to all deployment sites to conduct prehomeport dental screens In this manner a dynamic dental care program is provided Adequate routine care is provided by Dental Branch Offices located at each deployment site

EDUCATIONAL SERVICBS OFFICE

The team Career Counselor maintains the ESO Library with the aid of CompanyDepartment Career Counselors Of the 114 candidates (Blue and Gold Teams) who participated in the March 80 Navy-Wide Advancement Examination 83 were selected for advancement 29 were passed but not advanced (PNA) and 2 failed This is a 98 passing rate and is consistent with previous exam passing rates for NMCB THREE personnel Two individuals from NMCB THREE were selected for the Navys Enlisted Education Advancement Program (REAP) which was first introduced this year bull

POSTAL

The Post Office is operated by a PCl and PC3 After initiating a test letter program to evaluate delivery time between deployment sites and homeport new procedures were instituted to reduce transit time Transit time for CONOS bound mail from Okinawa was reduced by one to two days by delivering outbound mail directly to OSMC personnel at Naha International Airport instead of depending on OSAP personnel at Xadena Air Base Money Order sales for the Main Body reached $35000 by the end of deployment

PUBLIC AFFAIRS OPPICE

Under the current bat talion mode one photographers mate is assigned to the Gold Team while the journalist provides PAO coverage for the Blue Team As a result of pending disciplinary action Gold III was without adequate PAO staffing at the beginning of the deployment The journalist from the Blue Team was transferred back to Okinawa after a homeport leave period to continue PAO coverage Adequate photo and journalist support was provided throughshyout the deployment Oet site coverage relied upon support from host stations Battalion news releases appeared in various publications including the PACIFIC STARS ANO STRIPES and the SEABEE COVERALL

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

ADKINORGANIZATION

The Administration Department continued to provide outshystandipound1 services despite mar~inal staffing IndividuaY--shydedlca on and many overtime ours by all personnel served to provide the SAme qua1ity and range of services without a reduction in quantity Of particu1ar note was the Increased emphasis and success with Adlldnistrative Discharge Boards and rapid Article 15 hearings Significant orianizatlonal changes occurred during Gold III These changes a fected bOth the Blue and Gold Teams and have been highly successful Com~site Compant was divided into the more traditional Alfa and charl e companies prior to deployment The wIiCJOm of this choice of organization was proven on the Field exercise in Dec 79 and again on deployment It has provided higher visibility to and a wider base for both vertical construction and CESB operationsmaintenance A closer knit and harmonious workinf cadre resulted in each of the companies and achieved outstand ng results Another significant organishyzational change occurred in May BO when approval was received for the Co111111And Staff to initiate of f-cycle deployment so that equal time could be expended with each team The Gold Team with an Officer-in-Charge was officially establiiihed thUii freeing major command and staff members to focus prior-i ties where required Of less visibility but no less importshyant was the initiation of off-cycle detlo~nt for the command career counampelor This profess on~y trained indivshyiCSual now spends equal ti111e with both teau lie applies his expertise in late deployment and early homeport periods on respective teAlllS when llUlximum personnel turnover occurs and retention decisions are being made by individuals This modus operandi has a l so proven to be highly effective See enclosure (4)

TRAXNIHG

ampxcellent ailita~traininq facilities and professional assistance were aval le and utilized Of significance was trainln9 obtained in small unit leadership on firing ranges Technical Training centered on on-the-job training when weather periltted and classroom lectures at other times The communications and ordnance unctions were completely overshyhauled during deployment and significant problems so1vecr-at the prilllary 1itea (Okinawa and Subic) Several Command Training Teaaa were trained and certified while on deployment and have already proven their worth In providing in-houae training to the Cltgt=Nlnd A petty officer third class indoctrination course wa1 developed presented and well recilvid 6Y newly appointed membirs Readiness training for the entire command is proceeding and should peik In approximately six months See enclosure (5)

OPERATIONS

Construction operations were severly hampered by inclement weather on Okinawa during early deployment and IwakUJU during the entire deployment Several long standing rainfall frequency and amount records were established at both sites Despite late and significant tasking changes inclement weather and material and fundin roblems all sites sucshyceeded in completint the ma orit of tas ed work Emphasis at all levels was p aced on qua ity and safe--construction The late deployment infusion of personnelfromthe returned Det Diego Garcia provided much needed direct labor at all sites Financial accountability and control of construction operations was an area of concentration during this deployment all funding problems have been either identified or solved See enclosure (6)

SUPPLYLOGISTICS

The Supply Department continued the reputation of outstanding support to line and staff functions The Supply Management Inspection during deployment resulted in a grade of outshystanding Several facility improvements were made tO-shysupply spaces much stock was inventoried and purged and a closed loop management ampastern between supply functions and customers was iriltiate bull The EDF continued to serve the best meals in the Pacific BEOManafement flourished with maximwn cooperation between the chan of command and the BEQ staff much needed BEQ collateral equirment was received and put in service See enclosure (7 bull

EQUIPMENT

The major emphasis in CESE management was ~ualitt workmanship and the CESE upgrade program Hampering t is ef ort was the disruption caused by the major repairs to the equipment maintenance shops Through careful planning and personal effort by all personnel the CESE upgrade program for Okinawa remained on schedule and a significant iinprovement to the PM-to- interilD repair ratio occurred The preservation program for eqUlpment in dead storage was selected as an area of concentration results were outstanding However a problem still exists with adequate cleaning facilities at the storage facility at Camp Kinser (formerly Makiminato) water service steam cleaning and petrolewn product environshymental control still do not exist at that site Funding constraints and benepoundit cost analysis will not support these features See enc osure (8)

ADMINISTRATION

1 Lessons learned

a Problem~Item The Operational Readiness Inspection (ORI) was con ucted approximately 5 weeks after the beginshyning of the deployment

1 Discussion Significant time and effort was necesshysary to prepare for this inspection It came at a most inopportune time early deployment confusion E-3 and below evaluations due 31 January quarterl y reports due in Jan ale

2 ActionRecommendation While it is recognized that travel fund conatrilnts forced the inspection to be conducted at this time it nevertheless forced the battalion to devote too much time at a cr1tical stage of deployment to the inspection effort It is strongly recommended that all inspections (ORI Air Det ect) be conducted about lllid depshyloyment timeframe to avoid crisis managementbull preparation

2 Narrative

Manning for the Gold III deployment consisted of the following 1 LTJG 1 PNl 2 PN3 1 PN2 (Subic Bay Det) 2 YNl (1 transferred in Jun) 2 YNl s and 1 YN3 (Operations YN) In addition to supporting one ha1f of the battalion Gold team is additionally tasked with maintaining the batshytalion diaries (officer and enlisted) and all battalion personnel assignments All administrative personnel and legal functions were conducted in a timely efficient manner Legal support afforded the battalion on deployment to Okinawa (lawyer appointments court martial scheduling and proceedings) were most timely While deployed a court martial can be scheduled and completed within l-2 months the same process in homeport takes approximately 4-6 months to complete Additiona1ly office equipment repairs (typeshywriters and duplicating machine) were expeditiously handled (within 3 hours of reported breakdown) In concert with a strong retention program NMCB THREE began an extensive indoctrination program for all new personnel assigned to the battalion Information relative to deployment sites battalion organization rotation schedules ect are provided all personnel upon receipt of orders Welcome aboard messages information packages and sponsor letters are a1so provided once a man has been assigned to THREE A comprehensive indoctrination program follows shortly after arrival thus ensuring a member is fu11y aware of a l l services provided and exactly who is responsible for providing those services This program is expected to poy high dividends in retention and morale within the bulleetter Than Best Battalionbull

MEDICAL

TOTAL PATIENTS VISITS 2033

HOSPITAL CASES 11

SIGNIFICANT EVENTS

(1) During the deployment there was a marked increase in out-patient health care delivery workload which can be directly attributed towards more accessible sickcall hours and recent trends towards viewing medical care as a right rather than a privilege

(2) An Interservice Support Agreement with the Naval Regional Medical Center Okinawa enhanced the procurement of medical material from a six month requisition to three days for routine supplies and one day for emergency supplies or contingencies In addition the aforementioned agreement provided resources which significantly improved the battalions occupationalindustrial and preventive medicine readiness

(3) Refurbishment and replacement of medical equipshyment through constant research and inquiry aided the Medical Department in setting up a medical laboratory and X-ray department in order to meet mission requirements and commitshyments

4) In conjunction with the Battalion Safety Policy Committee a Chemical Control Committee was established to identify properly handle and dispose of hazardous chemical agents used onboard the camp

DENTAL

PATIENTS TREATED 206

TOTAL PROCEDURES 389

SIGNIFICANT EVENTS

The Battalion Dental Officer and dental technicians normally remain in homeport to provide dental care and screening for the homeport team All personnel are screened early in homeport to identify any dental problems which must be corrected prior to deployment Approximately midway through the deployment the Dental Officer and his staff travel to all deployment sites to conduct prehomeport dental screens In this manner a dynamic dental care program is provided Adequate routine care is provided by Dental Branch Offices located at each deployment site

EDUCATIONAL SERVICBS OFFICE

The team Career Counselor maintains the ESO Library with the aid of CompanyDepartment Career Counselors Of the 114 candidates (Blue and Gold Teams) who participated in the March 80 Navy-Wide Advancement Examination 83 were selected for advancement 29 were passed but not advanced (PNA) and 2 failed This is a 98 passing rate and is consistent with previous exam passing rates for NMCB THREE personnel Two individuals from NMCB THREE were selected for the Navys Enlisted Education Advancement Program (REAP) which was first introduced this year bull

POSTAL

The Post Office is operated by a PCl and PC3 After initiating a test letter program to evaluate delivery time between deployment sites and homeport new procedures were instituted to reduce transit time Transit time for CONOS bound mail from Okinawa was reduced by one to two days by delivering outbound mail directly to OSMC personnel at Naha International Airport instead of depending on OSAP personnel at Xadena Air Base Money Order sales for the Main Body reached $35000 by the end of deployment

PUBLIC AFFAIRS OPPICE

Under the current bat talion mode one photographers mate is assigned to the Gold Team while the journalist provides PAO coverage for the Blue Team As a result of pending disciplinary action Gold III was without adequate PAO staffing at the beginning of the deployment The journalist from the Blue Team was transferred back to Okinawa after a homeport leave period to continue PAO coverage Adequate photo and journalist support was provided throughshyout the deployment Oet site coverage relied upon support from host stations Battalion news releases appeared in various publications including the PACIFIC STARS ANO STRIPES and the SEABEE COVERALL

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

ADKINORGANIZATION

The Administration Department continued to provide outshystandipound1 services despite mar~inal staffing IndividuaY--shydedlca on and many overtime ours by all personnel served to provide the SAme qua1ity and range of services without a reduction in quantity Of particu1ar note was the Increased emphasis and success with Adlldnistrative Discharge Boards and rapid Article 15 hearings Significant orianizatlonal changes occurred during Gold III These changes a fected bOth the Blue and Gold Teams and have been highly successful Com~site Compant was divided into the more traditional Alfa and charl e companies prior to deployment The wIiCJOm of this choice of organization was proven on the Field exercise in Dec 79 and again on deployment It has provided higher visibility to and a wider base for both vertical construction and CESB operationsmaintenance A closer knit and harmonious workinf cadre resulted in each of the companies and achieved outstand ng results Another significant organishyzational change occurred in May BO when approval was received for the Co111111And Staff to initiate of f-cycle deployment so that equal time could be expended with each team The Gold Team with an Officer-in-Charge was officially establiiihed thUii freeing major command and staff members to focus prior-i ties where required Of less visibility but no less importshyant was the initiation of off-cycle detlo~nt for the command career counampelor This profess on~y trained indivshyiCSual now spends equal ti111e with both teau lie applies his expertise in late deployment and early homeport periods on respective teAlllS when llUlximum personnel turnover occurs and retention decisions are being made by individuals This modus operandi has a l so proven to be highly effective See enclosure (4)

TRAXNIHG

ampxcellent ailita~traininq facilities and professional assistance were aval le and utilized Of significance was trainln9 obtained in small unit leadership on firing ranges Technical Training centered on on-the-job training when weather periltted and classroom lectures at other times The communications and ordnance unctions were completely overshyhauled during deployment and significant problems so1vecr-at the prilllary 1itea (Okinawa and Subic) Several Command Training Teaaa were trained and certified while on deployment and have already proven their worth In providing in-houae training to the Cltgt=Nlnd A petty officer third class indoctrination course wa1 developed presented and well recilvid 6Y newly appointed membirs Readiness training for the entire command is proceeding and should peik In approximately six months See enclosure (5)

OPERATIONS

Construction operations were severly hampered by inclement weather on Okinawa during early deployment and IwakUJU during the entire deployment Several long standing rainfall frequency and amount records were established at both sites Despite late and significant tasking changes inclement weather and material and fundin roblems all sites sucshyceeded in completint the ma orit of tas ed work Emphasis at all levels was p aced on qua ity and safe--construction The late deployment infusion of personnelfromthe returned Det Diego Garcia provided much needed direct labor at all sites Financial accountability and control of construction operations was an area of concentration during this deployment all funding problems have been either identified or solved See enclosure (6)

SUPPLYLOGISTICS

The Supply Department continued the reputation of outstanding support to line and staff functions The Supply Management Inspection during deployment resulted in a grade of outshystanding Several facility improvements were made tO-shysupply spaces much stock was inventoried and purged and a closed loop management ampastern between supply functions and customers was iriltiate bull The EDF continued to serve the best meals in the Pacific BEOManafement flourished with maximwn cooperation between the chan of command and the BEQ staff much needed BEQ collateral equirment was received and put in service See enclosure (7 bull

EQUIPMENT

The major emphasis in CESE management was ~ualitt workmanship and the CESE upgrade program Hampering t is ef ort was the disruption caused by the major repairs to the equipment maintenance shops Through careful planning and personal effort by all personnel the CESE upgrade program for Okinawa remained on schedule and a significant iinprovement to the PM-to- interilD repair ratio occurred The preservation program for eqUlpment in dead storage was selected as an area of concentration results were outstanding However a problem still exists with adequate cleaning facilities at the storage facility at Camp Kinser (formerly Makiminato) water service steam cleaning and petrolewn product environshymental control still do not exist at that site Funding constraints and benepoundit cost analysis will not support these features See enc osure (8)

ADMINISTRATION

1 Lessons learned

a Problem~Item The Operational Readiness Inspection (ORI) was con ucted approximately 5 weeks after the beginshyning of the deployment

1 Discussion Significant time and effort was necesshysary to prepare for this inspection It came at a most inopportune time early deployment confusion E-3 and below evaluations due 31 January quarterl y reports due in Jan ale

2 ActionRecommendation While it is recognized that travel fund conatrilnts forced the inspection to be conducted at this time it nevertheless forced the battalion to devote too much time at a cr1tical stage of deployment to the inspection effort It is strongly recommended that all inspections (ORI Air Det ect) be conducted about lllid depshyloyment timeframe to avoid crisis managementbull preparation

2 Narrative

Manning for the Gold III deployment consisted of the following 1 LTJG 1 PNl 2 PN3 1 PN2 (Subic Bay Det) 2 YNl (1 transferred in Jun) 2 YNl s and 1 YN3 (Operations YN) In addition to supporting one ha1f of the battalion Gold team is additionally tasked with maintaining the batshytalion diaries (officer and enlisted) and all battalion personnel assignments All administrative personnel and legal functions were conducted in a timely efficient manner Legal support afforded the battalion on deployment to Okinawa (lawyer appointments court martial scheduling and proceedings) were most timely While deployed a court martial can be scheduled and completed within l-2 months the same process in homeport takes approximately 4-6 months to complete Additiona1ly office equipment repairs (typeshywriters and duplicating machine) were expeditiously handled (within 3 hours of reported breakdown) In concert with a strong retention program NMCB THREE began an extensive indoctrination program for all new personnel assigned to the battalion Information relative to deployment sites battalion organization rotation schedules ect are provided all personnel upon receipt of orders Welcome aboard messages information packages and sponsor letters are a1so provided once a man has been assigned to THREE A comprehensive indoctrination program follows shortly after arrival thus ensuring a member is fu11y aware of a l l services provided and exactly who is responsible for providing those services This program is expected to poy high dividends in retention and morale within the bulleetter Than Best Battalionbull

MEDICAL

TOTAL PATIENTS VISITS 2033

HOSPITAL CASES 11

SIGNIFICANT EVENTS

(1) During the deployment there was a marked increase in out-patient health care delivery workload which can be directly attributed towards more accessible sickcall hours and recent trends towards viewing medical care as a right rather than a privilege

(2) An Interservice Support Agreement with the Naval Regional Medical Center Okinawa enhanced the procurement of medical material from a six month requisition to three days for routine supplies and one day for emergency supplies or contingencies In addition the aforementioned agreement provided resources which significantly improved the battalions occupationalindustrial and preventive medicine readiness

(3) Refurbishment and replacement of medical equipshyment through constant research and inquiry aided the Medical Department in setting up a medical laboratory and X-ray department in order to meet mission requirements and commitshyments

4) In conjunction with the Battalion Safety Policy Committee a Chemical Control Committee was established to identify properly handle and dispose of hazardous chemical agents used onboard the camp

DENTAL

PATIENTS TREATED 206

TOTAL PROCEDURES 389

SIGNIFICANT EVENTS

The Battalion Dental Officer and dental technicians normally remain in homeport to provide dental care and screening for the homeport team All personnel are screened early in homeport to identify any dental problems which must be corrected prior to deployment Approximately midway through the deployment the Dental Officer and his staff travel to all deployment sites to conduct prehomeport dental screens In this manner a dynamic dental care program is provided Adequate routine care is provided by Dental Branch Offices located at each deployment site

EDUCATIONAL SERVICBS OFFICE

The team Career Counselor maintains the ESO Library with the aid of CompanyDepartment Career Counselors Of the 114 candidates (Blue and Gold Teams) who participated in the March 80 Navy-Wide Advancement Examination 83 were selected for advancement 29 were passed but not advanced (PNA) and 2 failed This is a 98 passing rate and is consistent with previous exam passing rates for NMCB THREE personnel Two individuals from NMCB THREE were selected for the Navys Enlisted Education Advancement Program (REAP) which was first introduced this year bull

POSTAL

The Post Office is operated by a PCl and PC3 After initiating a test letter program to evaluate delivery time between deployment sites and homeport new procedures were instituted to reduce transit time Transit time for CONOS bound mail from Okinawa was reduced by one to two days by delivering outbound mail directly to OSMC personnel at Naha International Airport instead of depending on OSAP personnel at Xadena Air Base Money Order sales for the Main Body reached $35000 by the end of deployment

PUBLIC AFFAIRS OPPICE

Under the current bat talion mode one photographers mate is assigned to the Gold Team while the journalist provides PAO coverage for the Blue Team As a result of pending disciplinary action Gold III was without adequate PAO staffing at the beginning of the deployment The journalist from the Blue Team was transferred back to Okinawa after a homeport leave period to continue PAO coverage Adequate photo and journalist support was provided throughshyout the deployment Oet site coverage relied upon support from host stations Battalion news releases appeared in various publications including the PACIFIC STARS ANO STRIPES and the SEABEE COVERALL

The Supply Department continued the reputation of outstanding support to line and staff functions The Supply Management Inspection during deployment resulted in a grade of outshystanding Several facility improvements were made tO-shysupply spaces much stock was inventoried and purged and a closed loop management ampastern between supply functions and customers was iriltiate bull The EDF continued to serve the best meals in the Pacific BEOManafement flourished with maximwn cooperation between the chan of command and the BEQ staff much needed BEQ collateral equirment was received and put in service See enclosure (7 bull

EQUIPMENT

The major emphasis in CESE management was ~ualitt workmanship and the CESE upgrade program Hampering t is ef ort was the disruption caused by the major repairs to the equipment maintenance shops Through careful planning and personal effort by all personnel the CESE upgrade program for Okinawa remained on schedule and a significant iinprovement to the PM-to- interilD repair ratio occurred The preservation program for eqUlpment in dead storage was selected as an area of concentration results were outstanding However a problem still exists with adequate cleaning facilities at the storage facility at Camp Kinser (formerly Makiminato) water service steam cleaning and petrolewn product environshymental control still do not exist at that site Funding constraints and benepoundit cost analysis will not support these features See enc osure (8)

ADMINISTRATION

1 Lessons learned

a Problem~Item The Operational Readiness Inspection (ORI) was con ucted approximately 5 weeks after the beginshyning of the deployment

1 Discussion Significant time and effort was necesshysary to prepare for this inspection It came at a most inopportune time early deployment confusion E-3 and below evaluations due 31 January quarterl y reports due in Jan ale

2 ActionRecommendation While it is recognized that travel fund conatrilnts forced the inspection to be conducted at this time it nevertheless forced the battalion to devote too much time at a cr1tical stage of deployment to the inspection effort It is strongly recommended that all inspections (ORI Air Det ect) be conducted about lllid depshyloyment timeframe to avoid crisis managementbull preparation

2 Narrative

Manning for the Gold III deployment consisted of the following 1 LTJG 1 PNl 2 PN3 1 PN2 (Subic Bay Det) 2 YNl (1 transferred in Jun) 2 YNl s and 1 YN3 (Operations YN) In addition to supporting one ha1f of the battalion Gold team is additionally tasked with maintaining the batshytalion diaries (officer and enlisted) and all battalion personnel assignments All administrative personnel and legal functions were conducted in a timely efficient manner Legal support afforded the battalion on deployment to Okinawa (lawyer appointments court martial scheduling and proceedings) were most timely While deployed a court martial can be scheduled and completed within l-2 months the same process in homeport takes approximately 4-6 months to complete Additiona1ly office equipment repairs (typeshywriters and duplicating machine) were expeditiously handled (within 3 hours of reported breakdown) In concert with a strong retention program NMCB THREE began an extensive indoctrination program for all new personnel assigned to the battalion Information relative to deployment sites battalion organization rotation schedules ect are provided all personnel upon receipt of orders Welcome aboard messages information packages and sponsor letters are a1so provided once a man has been assigned to THREE A comprehensive indoctrination program follows shortly after arrival thus ensuring a member is fu11y aware of a l l services provided and exactly who is responsible for providing those services This program is expected to poy high dividends in retention and morale within the bulleetter Than Best Battalionbull

MEDICAL

TOTAL PATIENTS VISITS 2033

HOSPITAL CASES 11

SIGNIFICANT EVENTS

(1) During the deployment there was a marked increase in out-patient health care delivery workload which can be directly attributed towards more accessible sickcall hours and recent trends towards viewing medical care as a right rather than a privilege

(2) An Interservice Support Agreement with the Naval Regional Medical Center Okinawa enhanced the procurement of medical material from a six month requisition to three days for routine supplies and one day for emergency supplies or contingencies In addition the aforementioned agreement provided resources which significantly improved the battalions occupationalindustrial and preventive medicine readiness

(3) Refurbishment and replacement of medical equipshyment through constant research and inquiry aided the Medical Department in setting up a medical laboratory and X-ray department in order to meet mission requirements and commitshyments

4) In conjunction with the Battalion Safety Policy Committee a Chemical Control Committee was established to identify properly handle and dispose of hazardous chemical agents used onboard the camp

DENTAL

PATIENTS TREATED 206

TOTAL PROCEDURES 389

SIGNIFICANT EVENTS

The Battalion Dental Officer and dental technicians normally remain in homeport to provide dental care and screening for the homeport team All personnel are screened early in homeport to identify any dental problems which must be corrected prior to deployment Approximately midway through the deployment the Dental Officer and his staff travel to all deployment sites to conduct prehomeport dental screens In this manner a dynamic dental care program is provided Adequate routine care is provided by Dental Branch Offices located at each deployment site

EDUCATIONAL SERVICBS OFFICE

The team Career Counselor maintains the ESO Library with the aid of CompanyDepartment Career Counselors Of the 114 candidates (Blue and Gold Teams) who participated in the March 80 Navy-Wide Advancement Examination 83 were selected for advancement 29 were passed but not advanced (PNA) and 2 failed This is a 98 passing rate and is consistent with previous exam passing rates for NMCB THREE personnel Two individuals from NMCB THREE were selected for the Navys Enlisted Education Advancement Program (REAP) which was first introduced this year bull

POSTAL

The Post Office is operated by a PCl and PC3 After initiating a test letter program to evaluate delivery time between deployment sites and homeport new procedures were instituted to reduce transit time Transit time for CONOS bound mail from Okinawa was reduced by one to two days by delivering outbound mail directly to OSMC personnel at Naha International Airport instead of depending on OSAP personnel at Xadena Air Base Money Order sales for the Main Body reached $35000 by the end of deployment

PUBLIC AFFAIRS OPPICE

Under the current bat talion mode one photographers mate is assigned to the Gold Team while the journalist provides PAO coverage for the Blue Team As a result of pending disciplinary action Gold III was without adequate PAO staffing at the beginning of the deployment The journalist from the Blue Team was transferred back to Okinawa after a homeport leave period to continue PAO coverage Adequate photo and journalist support was provided throughshyout the deployment Oet site coverage relied upon support from host stations Battalion news releases appeared in various publications including the PACIFIC STARS ANO STRIPES and the SEABEE COVERALL

OPERATIONS

Construction operations were severly hampered by inclement weather on Okinawa during early deployment and IwakUJU during the entire deployment Several long standing rainfall frequency and amount records were established at both sites Despite late and significant tasking changes inclement weather and material and fundin roblems all sites sucshyceeded in completint the ma orit of tas ed work Emphasis at all levels was p aced on qua ity and safe--construction The late deployment infusion of personnelfromthe returned Det Diego Garcia provided much needed direct labor at all sites Financial accountability and control of construction operations was an area of concentration during this deployment all funding problems have been either identified or solved See enclosure (6)

SUPPLYLOGISTICS

The Supply Department continued the reputation of outstanding support to line and staff functions The Supply Management Inspection during deployment resulted in a grade of outshystanding Several facility improvements were made tO-shysupply spaces much stock was inventoried and purged and a closed loop management ampastern between supply functions and customers was iriltiate bull The EDF continued to serve the best meals in the Pacific BEOManafement flourished with maximwn cooperation between the chan of command and the BEQ staff much needed BEQ collateral equirment was received and put in service See enclosure (7 bull

EQUIPMENT

The major emphasis in CESE management was ~ualitt workmanship and the CESE upgrade program Hampering t is ef ort was the disruption caused by the major repairs to the equipment maintenance shops Through careful planning and personal effort by all personnel the CESE upgrade program for Okinawa remained on schedule and a significant iinprovement to the PM-to- interilD repair ratio occurred The preservation program for eqUlpment in dead storage was selected as an area of concentration results were outstanding However a problem still exists with adequate cleaning facilities at the storage facility at Camp Kinser (formerly Makiminato) water service steam cleaning and petrolewn product environshymental control still do not exist at that site Funding constraints and benepoundit cost analysis will not support these features See enc osure (8)

ADMINISTRATION

1 Lessons learned

a Problem~Item The Operational Readiness Inspection (ORI) was con ucted approximately 5 weeks after the beginshyning of the deployment

1 Discussion Significant time and effort was necesshysary to prepare for this inspection It came at a most inopportune time early deployment confusion E-3 and below evaluations due 31 January quarterl y reports due in Jan ale

2 ActionRecommendation While it is recognized that travel fund conatrilnts forced the inspection to be conducted at this time it nevertheless forced the battalion to devote too much time at a cr1tical stage of deployment to the inspection effort It is strongly recommended that all inspections (ORI Air Det ect) be conducted about lllid depshyloyment timeframe to avoid crisis managementbull preparation

2 Narrative

Manning for the Gold III deployment consisted of the following 1 LTJG 1 PNl 2 PN3 1 PN2 (Subic Bay Det) 2 YNl (1 transferred in Jun) 2 YNl s and 1 YN3 (Operations YN) In addition to supporting one ha1f of the battalion Gold team is additionally tasked with maintaining the batshytalion diaries (officer and enlisted) and all battalion personnel assignments All administrative personnel and legal functions were conducted in a timely efficient manner Legal support afforded the battalion on deployment to Okinawa (lawyer appointments court martial scheduling and proceedings) were most timely While deployed a court martial can be scheduled and completed within l-2 months the same process in homeport takes approximately 4-6 months to complete Additiona1ly office equipment repairs (typeshywriters and duplicating machine) were expeditiously handled (within 3 hours of reported breakdown) In concert with a strong retention program NMCB THREE began an extensive indoctrination program for all new personnel assigned to the battalion Information relative to deployment sites battalion organization rotation schedules ect are provided all personnel upon receipt of orders Welcome aboard messages information packages and sponsor letters are a1so provided once a man has been assigned to THREE A comprehensive indoctrination program follows shortly after arrival thus ensuring a member is fu11y aware of a l l services provided and exactly who is responsible for providing those services This program is expected to poy high dividends in retention and morale within the bulleetter Than Best Battalionbull

MEDICAL

TOTAL PATIENTS VISITS 2033

HOSPITAL CASES 11

SIGNIFICANT EVENTS

(1) During the deployment there was a marked increase in out-patient health care delivery workload which can be directly attributed towards more accessible sickcall hours and recent trends towards viewing medical care as a right rather than a privilege

(2) An Interservice Support Agreement with the Naval Regional Medical Center Okinawa enhanced the procurement of medical material from a six month requisition to three days for routine supplies and one day for emergency supplies or contingencies In addition the aforementioned agreement provided resources which significantly improved the battalions occupationalindustrial and preventive medicine readiness

(3) Refurbishment and replacement of medical equipshyment through constant research and inquiry aided the Medical Department in setting up a medical laboratory and X-ray department in order to meet mission requirements and commitshyments

4) In conjunction with the Battalion Safety Policy Committee a Chemical Control Committee was established to identify properly handle and dispose of hazardous chemical agents used onboard the camp

DENTAL

PATIENTS TREATED 206

TOTAL PROCEDURES 389

SIGNIFICANT EVENTS

The Battalion Dental Officer and dental technicians normally remain in homeport to provide dental care and screening for the homeport team All personnel are screened early in homeport to identify any dental problems which must be corrected prior to deployment Approximately midway through the deployment the Dental Officer and his staff travel to all deployment sites to conduct prehomeport dental screens In this manner a dynamic dental care program is provided Adequate routine care is provided by Dental Branch Offices located at each deployment site

EDUCATIONAL SERVICBS OFFICE

The team Career Counselor maintains the ESO Library with the aid of CompanyDepartment Career Counselors Of the 114 candidates (Blue and Gold Teams) who participated in the March 80 Navy-Wide Advancement Examination 83 were selected for advancement 29 were passed but not advanced (PNA) and 2 failed This is a 98 passing rate and is consistent with previous exam passing rates for NMCB THREE personnel Two individuals from NMCB THREE were selected for the Navys Enlisted Education Advancement Program (REAP) which was first introduced this year bull

POSTAL

The Post Office is operated by a PCl and PC3 After initiating a test letter program to evaluate delivery time between deployment sites and homeport new procedures were instituted to reduce transit time Transit time for CONOS bound mail from Okinawa was reduced by one to two days by delivering outbound mail directly to OSMC personnel at Naha International Airport instead of depending on OSAP personnel at Xadena Air Base Money Order sales for the Main Body reached $35000 by the end of deployment

PUBLIC AFFAIRS OPPICE

Under the current bat talion mode one photographers mate is assigned to the Gold Team while the journalist provides PAO coverage for the Blue Team As a result of pending disciplinary action Gold III was without adequate PAO staffing at the beginning of the deployment The journalist from the Blue Team was transferred back to Okinawa after a homeport leave period to continue PAO coverage Adequate photo and journalist support was provided throughshyout the deployment Oet site coverage relied upon support from host stations Battalion news releases appeared in various publications including the PACIFIC STARS ANO STRIPES and the SEABEE COVERALL

OPERATIONS

Construction operations were severly hampered by inclement weather on Okinawa during early deployment and IwakUJU during the entire deployment Several long standing rainfall frequency and amount records were established at both sites Despite late and significant tasking changes inclement weather and material and fundin roblems all sites sucshyceeded in completint the ma orit of tas ed work Emphasis at all levels was p aced on qua ity and safe--construction The late deployment infusion of personnelfromthe returned Det Diego Garcia provided much needed direct labor at all sites Financial accountability and control of construction operations was an area of concentration during this deployment all funding problems have been either identified or solved See enclosure (6)

SUPPLYLOGISTICS

The Supply Department continued the reputation of outstanding support to line and staff functions The Supply Management Inspection during deployment resulted in a grade of outshystanding Several facility improvements were made tO-shysupply spaces much stock was inventoried and purged and a closed loop management ampastern between supply functions and customers was iriltiate bull The EDF continued to serve the best meals in the Pacific BEOManafement flourished with maximwn cooperation between the chan of command and the BEQ staff much needed BEQ collateral equirment was received and put in service See enclosure (7 bull

EQUIPMENT

The major emphasis in CESE management was ~ualitt workmanship and the CESE upgrade program Hampering t is ef ort was the disruption caused by the major repairs to the equipment maintenance shops Through careful planning and personal effort by all personnel the CESE upgrade program for Okinawa remained on schedule and a significant iinprovement to the PM-to- interilD repair ratio occurred The preservation program for eqUlpment in dead storage was selected as an area of concentration results were outstanding However a problem still exists with adequate cleaning facilities at the storage facility at Camp Kinser (formerly Makiminato) water service steam cleaning and petrolewn product environshymental control still do not exist at that site Funding constraints and benepoundit cost analysis will not support these features See enc osure (8)

ADMINISTRATION

1 Lessons learned

a Problem~Item The Operational Readiness Inspection (ORI) was con ucted approximately 5 weeks after the beginshyning of the deployment

1 Discussion Significant time and effort was necesshysary to prepare for this inspection It came at a most inopportune time early deployment confusion E-3 and below evaluations due 31 January quarterl y reports due in Jan ale

2 ActionRecommendation While it is recognized that travel fund conatrilnts forced the inspection to be conducted at this time it nevertheless forced the battalion to devote too much time at a cr1tical stage of deployment to the inspection effort It is strongly recommended that all inspections (ORI Air Det ect) be conducted about lllid depshyloyment timeframe to avoid crisis managementbull preparation

2 Narrative

Manning for the Gold III deployment consisted of the following 1 LTJG 1 PNl 2 PN3 1 PN2 (Subic Bay Det) 2 YNl (1 transferred in Jun) 2 YNl s and 1 YN3 (Operations YN) In addition to supporting one ha1f of the battalion Gold team is additionally tasked with maintaining the batshytalion diaries (officer and enlisted) and all battalion personnel assignments All administrative personnel and legal functions were conducted in a timely efficient manner Legal support afforded the battalion on deployment to Okinawa (lawyer appointments court martial scheduling and proceedings) were most timely While deployed a court martial can be scheduled and completed within l-2 months the same process in homeport takes approximately 4-6 months to complete Additiona1ly office equipment repairs (typeshywriters and duplicating machine) were expeditiously handled (within 3 hours of reported breakdown) In concert with a strong retention program NMCB THREE began an extensive indoctrination program for all new personnel assigned to the battalion Information relative to deployment sites battalion organization rotation schedules ect are provided all personnel upon receipt of orders Welcome aboard messages information packages and sponsor letters are a1so provided once a man has been assigned to THREE A comprehensive indoctrination program follows shortly after arrival thus ensuring a member is fu11y aware of a l l services provided and exactly who is responsible for providing those services This program is expected to poy high dividends in retention and morale within the bulleetter Than Best Battalionbull

MEDICAL

TOTAL PATIENTS VISITS 2033

HOSPITAL CASES 11

SIGNIFICANT EVENTS

(1) During the deployment there was a marked increase in out-patient health care delivery workload which can be directly attributed towards more accessible sickcall hours and recent trends towards viewing medical care as a right rather than a privilege

(2) An Interservice Support Agreement with the Naval Regional Medical Center Okinawa enhanced the procurement of medical material from a six month requisition to three days for routine supplies and one day for emergency supplies or contingencies In addition the aforementioned agreement provided resources which significantly improved the battalions occupationalindustrial and preventive medicine readiness

(3) Refurbishment and replacement of medical equipshyment through constant research and inquiry aided the Medical Department in setting up a medical laboratory and X-ray department in order to meet mission requirements and commitshyments

4) In conjunction with the Battalion Safety Policy Committee a Chemical Control Committee was established to identify properly handle and dispose of hazardous chemical agents used onboard the camp

DENTAL

PATIENTS TREATED 206

TOTAL PROCEDURES 389

SIGNIFICANT EVENTS

The Battalion Dental Officer and dental technicians normally remain in homeport to provide dental care and screening for the homeport team All personnel are screened early in homeport to identify any dental problems which must be corrected prior to deployment Approximately midway through the deployment the Dental Officer and his staff travel to all deployment sites to conduct prehomeport dental screens In this manner a dynamic dental care program is provided Adequate routine care is provided by Dental Branch Offices located at each deployment site

EDUCATIONAL SERVICBS OFFICE

The team Career Counselor maintains the ESO Library with the aid of CompanyDepartment Career Counselors Of the 114 candidates (Blue and Gold Teams) who participated in the March 80 Navy-Wide Advancement Examination 83 were selected for advancement 29 were passed but not advanced (PNA) and 2 failed This is a 98 passing rate and is consistent with previous exam passing rates for NMCB THREE personnel Two individuals from NMCB THREE were selected for the Navys Enlisted Education Advancement Program (REAP) which was first introduced this year bull

POSTAL

The Post Office is operated by a PCl and PC3 After initiating a test letter program to evaluate delivery time between deployment sites and homeport new procedures were instituted to reduce transit time Transit time for CONOS bound mail from Okinawa was reduced by one to two days by delivering outbound mail directly to OSMC personnel at Naha International Airport instead of depending on OSAP personnel at Xadena Air Base Money Order sales for the Main Body reached $35000 by the end of deployment

PUBLIC AFFAIRS OPPICE

Under the current bat talion mode one photographers mate is assigned to the Gold Team while the journalist provides PAO coverage for the Blue Team As a result of pending disciplinary action Gold III was without adequate PAO staffing at the beginning of the deployment The journalist from the Blue Team was transferred back to Okinawa after a homeport leave period to continue PAO coverage Adequate photo and journalist support was provided throughshyout the deployment Oet site coverage relied upon support from host stations Battalion news releases appeared in various publications including the PACIFIC STARS ANO STRIPES and the SEABEE COVERALL

OPERATIONS

Construction operations were severly hampered by inclement weather on Okinawa during early deployment and IwakUJU during the entire deployment Several long standing rainfall frequency and amount records were established at both sites Despite late and significant tasking changes inclement weather and material and fundin roblems all sites sucshyceeded in completint the ma orit of tas ed work Emphasis at all levels was p aced on qua ity and safe--construction The late deployment infusion of personnelfromthe returned Det Diego Garcia provided much needed direct labor at all sites Financial accountability and control of construction operations was an area of concentration during this deployment all funding problems have been either identified or solved See enclosure (6)

SUPPLYLOGISTICS

The Supply Department continued the reputation of outstanding support to line and staff functions The Supply Management Inspection during deployment resulted in a grade of outshystanding Several facility improvements were made tO-shysupply spaces much stock was inventoried and purged and a closed loop management ampastern between supply functions and customers was iriltiate bull The EDF continued to serve the best meals in the Pacific BEOManafement flourished with maximwn cooperation between the chan of command and the BEQ staff much needed BEQ collateral equirment was received and put in service See enclosure (7 bull

EQUIPMENT

The major emphasis in CESE management was ~ualitt workmanship and the CESE upgrade program Hampering t is ef ort was the disruption caused by the major repairs to the equipment maintenance shops Through careful planning and personal effort by all personnel the CESE upgrade program for Okinawa remained on schedule and a significant iinprovement to the PM-to- interilD repair ratio occurred The preservation program for eqUlpment in dead storage was selected as an area of concentration results were outstanding However a problem still exists with adequate cleaning facilities at the storage facility at Camp Kinser (formerly Makiminato) water service steam cleaning and petrolewn product environshymental control still do not exist at that site Funding constraints and benepoundit cost analysis will not support these features See enc osure (8)

ADMINISTRATION

1 Lessons learned

a Problem~Item The Operational Readiness Inspection (ORI) was con ucted approximately 5 weeks after the beginshyning of the deployment

1 Discussion Significant time and effort was necesshysary to prepare for this inspection It came at a most inopportune time early deployment confusion E-3 and below evaluations due 31 January quarterl y reports due in Jan ale

2 ActionRecommendation While it is recognized that travel fund conatrilnts forced the inspection to be conducted at this time it nevertheless forced the battalion to devote too much time at a cr1tical stage of deployment to the inspection effort It is strongly recommended that all inspections (ORI Air Det ect) be conducted about lllid depshyloyment timeframe to avoid crisis managementbull preparation

2 Narrative

Manning for the Gold III deployment consisted of the following 1 LTJG 1 PNl 2 PN3 1 PN2 (Subic Bay Det) 2 YNl (1 transferred in Jun) 2 YNl s and 1 YN3 (Operations YN) In addition to supporting one ha1f of the battalion Gold team is additionally tasked with maintaining the batshytalion diaries (officer and enlisted) and all battalion personnel assignments All administrative personnel and legal functions were conducted in a timely efficient manner Legal support afforded the battalion on deployment to Okinawa (lawyer appointments court martial scheduling and proceedings) were most timely While deployed a court martial can be scheduled and completed within l-2 months the same process in homeport takes approximately 4-6 months to complete Additiona1ly office equipment repairs (typeshywriters and duplicating machine) were expeditiously handled (within 3 hours of reported breakdown) In concert with a strong retention program NMCB THREE began an extensive indoctrination program for all new personnel assigned to the battalion Information relative to deployment sites battalion organization rotation schedules ect are provided all personnel upon receipt of orders Welcome aboard messages information packages and sponsor letters are a1so provided once a man has been assigned to THREE A comprehensive indoctrination program follows shortly after arrival thus ensuring a member is fu11y aware of a l l services provided and exactly who is responsible for providing those services This program is expected to poy high dividends in retention and morale within the bulleetter Than Best Battalionbull

MEDICAL

TOTAL PATIENTS VISITS 2033

HOSPITAL CASES 11

SIGNIFICANT EVENTS

(1) During the deployment there was a marked increase in out-patient health care delivery workload which can be directly attributed towards more accessible sickcall hours and recent trends towards viewing medical care as a right rather than a privilege

(2) An Interservice Support Agreement with the Naval Regional Medical Center Okinawa enhanced the procurement of medical material from a six month requisition to three days for routine supplies and one day for emergency supplies or contingencies In addition the aforementioned agreement provided resources which significantly improved the battalions occupationalindustrial and preventive medicine readiness

(3) Refurbishment and replacement of medical equipshyment through constant research and inquiry aided the Medical Department in setting up a medical laboratory and X-ray department in order to meet mission requirements and commitshyments

4) In conjunction with the Battalion Safety Policy Committee a Chemical Control Committee was established to identify properly handle and dispose of hazardous chemical agents used onboard the camp

DENTAL

PATIENTS TREATED 206

TOTAL PROCEDURES 389

SIGNIFICANT EVENTS

The Battalion Dental Officer and dental technicians normally remain in homeport to provide dental care and screening for the homeport team All personnel are screened early in homeport to identify any dental problems which must be corrected prior to deployment Approximately midway through the deployment the Dental Officer and his staff travel to all deployment sites to conduct prehomeport dental screens In this manner a dynamic dental care program is provided Adequate routine care is provided by Dental Branch Offices located at each deployment site

EDUCATIONAL SERVICBS OFFICE

The team Career Counselor maintains the ESO Library with the aid of CompanyDepartment Career Counselors Of the 114 candidates (Blue and Gold Teams) who participated in the March 80 Navy-Wide Advancement Examination 83 were selected for advancement 29 were passed but not advanced (PNA) and 2 failed This is a 98 passing rate and is consistent with previous exam passing rates for NMCB THREE personnel Two individuals from NMCB THREE were selected for the Navys Enlisted Education Advancement Program (REAP) which was first introduced this year bull

POSTAL

The Post Office is operated by a PCl and PC3 After initiating a test letter program to evaluate delivery time between deployment sites and homeport new procedures were instituted to reduce transit time Transit time for CONOS bound mail from Okinawa was reduced by one to two days by delivering outbound mail directly to OSMC personnel at Naha International Airport instead of depending on OSAP personnel at Xadena Air Base Money Order sales for the Main Body reached $35000 by the end of deployment

PUBLIC AFFAIRS OPPICE

Under the current bat talion mode one photographers mate is assigned to the Gold Team while the journalist provides PAO coverage for the Blue Team As a result of pending disciplinary action Gold III was without adequate PAO staffing at the beginning of the deployment The journalist from the Blue Team was transferred back to Okinawa after a homeport leave period to continue PAO coverage Adequate photo and journalist support was provided throughshyout the deployment Oet site coverage relied upon support from host stations Battalion news releases appeared in various publications including the PACIFIC STARS ANO STRIPES and the SEABEE COVERALL

Construction operations were severly hampered by inclement weather on Okinawa during early deployment and IwakUJU during the entire deployment Several long standing rainfall frequency and amount records were established at both sites Despite late and significant tasking changes inclement weather and material and fundin roblems all sites sucshyceeded in completint the ma orit of tas ed work Emphasis at all levels was p aced on qua ity and safe--construction The late deployment infusion of personnelfromthe returned Det Diego Garcia provided much needed direct labor at all sites Financial accountability and control of construction operations was an area of concentration during this deployment all funding problems have been either identified or solved See enclosure (6)

SUPPLYLOGISTICS

The Supply Department continued the reputation of outstanding support to line and staff functions The Supply Management Inspection during deployment resulted in a grade of outshystanding Several facility improvements were made tO-shysupply spaces much stock was inventoried and purged and a closed loop management ampastern between supply functions and customers was iriltiate bull The EDF continued to serve the best meals in the Pacific BEOManafement flourished with maximwn cooperation between the chan of command and the BEQ staff much needed BEQ collateral equirment was received and put in service See enclosure (7 bull

EQUIPMENT

The major emphasis in CESE management was ~ualitt workmanship and the CESE upgrade program Hampering t is ef ort was the disruption caused by the major repairs to the equipment maintenance shops Through careful planning and personal effort by all personnel the CESE upgrade program for Okinawa remained on schedule and a significant iinprovement to the PM-to- interilD repair ratio occurred The preservation program for eqUlpment in dead storage was selected as an area of concentration results were outstanding However a problem still exists with adequate cleaning facilities at the storage facility at Camp Kinser (formerly Makiminato) water service steam cleaning and petrolewn product environshymental control still do not exist at that site Funding constraints and benepoundit cost analysis will not support these features See enc osure (8)

ADMINISTRATION

1 Lessons learned

a Problem~Item The Operational Readiness Inspection (ORI) was con ucted approximately 5 weeks after the beginshyning of the deployment

1 Discussion Significant time and effort was necesshysary to prepare for this inspection It came at a most inopportune time early deployment confusion E-3 and below evaluations due 31 January quarterl y reports due in Jan ale

2 ActionRecommendation While it is recognized that travel fund conatrilnts forced the inspection to be conducted at this time it nevertheless forced the battalion to devote too much time at a cr1tical stage of deployment to the inspection effort It is strongly recommended that all inspections (ORI Air Det ect) be conducted about lllid depshyloyment timeframe to avoid crisis managementbull preparation

2 Narrative

Manning for the Gold III deployment consisted of the following 1 LTJG 1 PNl 2 PN3 1 PN2 (Subic Bay Det) 2 YNl (1 transferred in Jun) 2 YNl s and 1 YN3 (Operations YN) In addition to supporting one ha1f of the battalion Gold team is additionally tasked with maintaining the batshytalion diaries (officer and enlisted) and all battalion personnel assignments All administrative personnel and legal functions were conducted in a timely efficient manner Legal support afforded the battalion on deployment to Okinawa (lawyer appointments court martial scheduling and proceedings) were most timely While deployed a court martial can be scheduled and completed within l-2 months the same process in homeport takes approximately 4-6 months to complete Additiona1ly office equipment repairs (typeshywriters and duplicating machine) were expeditiously handled (within 3 hours of reported breakdown) In concert with a strong retention program NMCB THREE began an extensive indoctrination program for all new personnel assigned to the battalion Information relative to deployment sites battalion organization rotation schedules ect are provided all personnel upon receipt of orders Welcome aboard messages information packages and sponsor letters are a1so provided once a man has been assigned to THREE A comprehensive indoctrination program follows shortly after arrival thus ensuring a member is fu11y aware of a l l services provided and exactly who is responsible for providing those services This program is expected to poy high dividends in retention and morale within the bulleetter Than Best Battalionbull

MEDICAL

TOTAL PATIENTS VISITS 2033

HOSPITAL CASES 11

SIGNIFICANT EVENTS

(1) During the deployment there was a marked increase in out-patient health care delivery workload which can be directly attributed towards more accessible sickcall hours and recent trends towards viewing medical care as a right rather than a privilege

(2) An Interservice Support Agreement with the Naval Regional Medical Center Okinawa enhanced the procurement of medical material from a six month requisition to three days for routine supplies and one day for emergency supplies or contingencies In addition the aforementioned agreement provided resources which significantly improved the battalions occupationalindustrial and preventive medicine readiness

(3) Refurbishment and replacement of medical equipshyment through constant research and inquiry aided the Medical Department in setting up a medical laboratory and X-ray department in order to meet mission requirements and commitshyments

4) In conjunction with the Battalion Safety Policy Committee a Chemical Control Committee was established to identify properly handle and dispose of hazardous chemical agents used onboard the camp

DENTAL

PATIENTS TREATED 206

TOTAL PROCEDURES 389

SIGNIFICANT EVENTS

The Battalion Dental Officer and dental technicians normally remain in homeport to provide dental care and screening for the homeport team All personnel are screened early in homeport to identify any dental problems which must be corrected prior to deployment Approximately midway through the deployment the Dental Officer and his staff travel to all deployment sites to conduct prehomeport dental screens In this manner a dynamic dental care program is provided Adequate routine care is provided by Dental Branch Offices located at each deployment site

EDUCATIONAL SERVICBS OFFICE

The team Career Counselor maintains the ESO Library with the aid of CompanyDepartment Career Counselors Of the 114 candidates (Blue and Gold Teams) who participated in the March 80 Navy-Wide Advancement Examination 83 were selected for advancement 29 were passed but not advanced (PNA) and 2 failed This is a 98 passing rate and is consistent with previous exam passing rates for NMCB THREE personnel Two individuals from NMCB THREE were selected for the Navys Enlisted Education Advancement Program (REAP) which was first introduced this year bull

POSTAL

The Post Office is operated by a PCl and PC3 After initiating a test letter program to evaluate delivery time between deployment sites and homeport new procedures were instituted to reduce transit time Transit time for CONOS bound mail from Okinawa was reduced by one to two days by delivering outbound mail directly to OSMC personnel at Naha International Airport instead of depending on OSAP personnel at Xadena Air Base Money Order sales for the Main Body reached $35000 by the end of deployment

PUBLIC AFFAIRS OPPICE

Under the current bat talion mode one photographers mate is assigned to the Gold Team while the journalist provides PAO coverage for the Blue Team As a result of pending disciplinary action Gold III was without adequate PAO staffing at the beginning of the deployment The journalist from the Blue Team was transferred back to Okinawa after a homeport leave period to continue PAO coverage Adequate photo and journalist support was provided throughshyout the deployment Oet site coverage relied upon support from host stations Battalion news releases appeared in various publications including the PACIFIC STARS ANO STRIPES and the SEABEE COVERALL

ADMINISTRATION

1 Lessons learned

a Problem~Item The Operational Readiness Inspection (ORI) was con ucted approximately 5 weeks after the beginshyning of the deployment

1 Discussion Significant time and effort was necesshysary to prepare for this inspection It came at a most inopportune time early deployment confusion E-3 and below evaluations due 31 January quarterl y reports due in Jan ale

2 ActionRecommendation While it is recognized that travel fund conatrilnts forced the inspection to be conducted at this time it nevertheless forced the battalion to devote too much time at a cr1tical stage of deployment to the inspection effort It is strongly recommended that all inspections (ORI Air Det ect) be conducted about lllid depshyloyment timeframe to avoid crisis managementbull preparation

2 Narrative

Manning for the Gold III deployment consisted of the following 1 LTJG 1 PNl 2 PN3 1 PN2 (Subic Bay Det) 2 YNl (1 transferred in Jun) 2 YNl s and 1 YN3 (Operations YN) In addition to supporting one ha1f of the battalion Gold team is additionally tasked with maintaining the batshytalion diaries (officer and enlisted) and all battalion personnel assignments All administrative personnel and legal functions were conducted in a timely efficient manner Legal support afforded the battalion on deployment to Okinawa (lawyer appointments court martial scheduling and proceedings) were most timely While deployed a court martial can be scheduled and completed within l-2 months the same process in homeport takes approximately 4-6 months to complete Additiona1ly office equipment repairs (typeshywriters and duplicating machine) were expeditiously handled (within 3 hours of reported breakdown) In concert with a strong retention program NMCB THREE began an extensive indoctrination program for all new personnel assigned to the battalion Information relative to deployment sites battalion organization rotation schedules ect are provided all personnel upon receipt of orders Welcome aboard messages information packages and sponsor letters are a1so provided once a man has been assigned to THREE A comprehensive indoctrination program follows shortly after arrival thus ensuring a member is fu11y aware of a l l services provided and exactly who is responsible for providing those services This program is expected to poy high dividends in retention and morale within the bulleetter Than Best Battalionbull

MEDICAL

TOTAL PATIENTS VISITS 2033

HOSPITAL CASES 11

SIGNIFICANT EVENTS

(1) During the deployment there was a marked increase in out-patient health care delivery workload which can be directly attributed towards more accessible sickcall hours and recent trends towards viewing medical care as a right rather than a privilege

(2) An Interservice Support Agreement with the Naval Regional Medical Center Okinawa enhanced the procurement of medical material from a six month requisition to three days for routine supplies and one day for emergency supplies or contingencies In addition the aforementioned agreement provided resources which significantly improved the battalions occupationalindustrial and preventive medicine readiness

(3) Refurbishment and replacement of medical equipshyment through constant research and inquiry aided the Medical Department in setting up a medical laboratory and X-ray department in order to meet mission requirements and commitshyments

4) In conjunction with the Battalion Safety Policy Committee a Chemical Control Committee was established to identify properly handle and dispose of hazardous chemical agents used onboard the camp

DENTAL

PATIENTS TREATED 206

TOTAL PROCEDURES 389

SIGNIFICANT EVENTS

The Battalion Dental Officer and dental technicians normally remain in homeport to provide dental care and screening for the homeport team All personnel are screened early in homeport to identify any dental problems which must be corrected prior to deployment Approximately midway through the deployment the Dental Officer and his staff travel to all deployment sites to conduct prehomeport dental screens In this manner a dynamic dental care program is provided Adequate routine care is provided by Dental Branch Offices located at each deployment site

EDUCATIONAL SERVICBS OFFICE

The team Career Counselor maintains the ESO Library with the aid of CompanyDepartment Career Counselors Of the 114 candidates (Blue and Gold Teams) who participated in the March 80 Navy-Wide Advancement Examination 83 were selected for advancement 29 were passed but not advanced (PNA) and 2 failed This is a 98 passing rate and is consistent with previous exam passing rates for NMCB THREE personnel Two individuals from NMCB THREE were selected for the Navys Enlisted Education Advancement Program (REAP) which was first introduced this year bull

POSTAL

The Post Office is operated by a PCl and PC3 After initiating a test letter program to evaluate delivery time between deployment sites and homeport new procedures were instituted to reduce transit time Transit time for CONOS bound mail from Okinawa was reduced by one to two days by delivering outbound mail directly to OSMC personnel at Naha International Airport instead of depending on OSAP personnel at Xadena Air Base Money Order sales for the Main Body reached $35000 by the end of deployment

PUBLIC AFFAIRS OPPICE

Under the current bat talion mode one photographers mate is assigned to the Gold Team while the journalist provides PAO coverage for the Blue Team As a result of pending disciplinary action Gold III was without adequate PAO staffing at the beginning of the deployment The journalist from the Blue Team was transferred back to Okinawa after a homeport leave period to continue PAO coverage Adequate photo and journalist support was provided throughshyout the deployment Oet site coverage relied upon support from host stations Battalion news releases appeared in various publications including the PACIFIC STARS ANO STRIPES and the SEABEE COVERALL

OPERATIONS

Construction operations were severly hampered by inclement weather on Okinawa during early deployment and IwakUJU during the entire deployment Several long standing rainfall frequency and amount records were established at both sites Despite late and significant tasking changes inclement weather and material and fundin roblems all sites sucshyceeded in completint the ma orit of tas ed work Emphasis at all levels was p aced on qua ity and safe--construction The late deployment infusion of personnelfromthe returned Det Diego Garcia provided much needed direct labor at all sites Financial accountability and control of construction operations was an area of concentration during this deployment all funding problems have been either identified or solved See enclosure (6)

SUPPLYLOGISTICS

The Supply Department continued the reputation of outstanding support to line and staff functions The Supply Management Inspection during deployment resulted in a grade of outshystanding Several facility improvements were made tO-shysupply spaces much stock was inventoried and purged and a closed loop management ampastern between supply functions and customers was iriltiate bull The EDF continued to serve the best meals in the Pacific BEOManafement flourished with maximwn cooperation between the chan of command and the BEQ staff much needed BEQ collateral equirment was received and put in service See enclosure (7 bull

EQUIPMENT

The major emphasis in CESE management was ~ualitt workmanship and the CESE upgrade program Hampering t is ef ort was the disruption caused by the major repairs to the equipment maintenance shops Through careful planning and personal effort by all personnel the CESE upgrade program for Okinawa remained on schedule and a significant iinprovement to the PM-to- interilD repair ratio occurred The preservation program for eqUlpment in dead storage was selected as an area of concentration results were outstanding However a problem still exists with adequate cleaning facilities at the storage facility at Camp Kinser (formerly Makiminato) water service steam cleaning and petrolewn product environshymental control still do not exist at that site Funding constraints and benepoundit cost analysis will not support these features See enc osure (8)

MEDICAL

TOTAL PATIENTS VISITS 2033

HOSPITAL CASES 11

SIGNIFICANT EVENTS

(1) During the deployment there was a marked increase in out-patient health care delivery workload which can be directly attributed towards more accessible sickcall hours and recent trends towards viewing medical care as a right rather than a privilege

(2) An Interservice Support Agreement with the Naval Regional Medical Center Okinawa enhanced the procurement of medical material from a six month requisition to three days for routine supplies and one day for emergency supplies or contingencies In addition the aforementioned agreement provided resources which significantly improved the battalions occupationalindustrial and preventive medicine readiness

(3) Refurbishment and replacement of medical equipshyment through constant research and inquiry aided the Medical Department in setting up a medical laboratory and X-ray department in order to meet mission requirements and commitshyments

4) In conjunction with the Battalion Safety Policy Committee a Chemical Control Committee was established to identify properly handle and dispose of hazardous chemical agents used onboard the camp

DENTAL

PATIENTS TREATED 206

TOTAL PROCEDURES 389

SIGNIFICANT EVENTS

The Battalion Dental Officer and dental technicians normally remain in homeport to provide dental care and screening for the homeport team All personnel are screened early in homeport to identify any dental problems which must be corrected prior to deployment Approximately midway through the deployment the Dental Officer and his staff travel to all deployment sites to conduct prehomeport dental screens In this manner a dynamic dental care program is provided Adequate routine care is provided by Dental Branch Offices located at each deployment site

EDUCATIONAL SERVICBS OFFICE

The team Career Counselor maintains the ESO Library with the aid of CompanyDepartment Career Counselors Of the 114 candidates (Blue and Gold Teams) who participated in the March 80 Navy-Wide Advancement Examination 83 were selected for advancement 29 were passed but not advanced (PNA) and 2 failed This is a 98 passing rate and is consistent with previous exam passing rates for NMCB THREE personnel Two individuals from NMCB THREE were selected for the Navys Enlisted Education Advancement Program (REAP) which was first introduced this year bull

POSTAL

The Post Office is operated by a PCl and PC3 After initiating a test letter program to evaluate delivery time between deployment sites and homeport new procedures were instituted to reduce transit time Transit time for CONOS bound mail from Okinawa was reduced by one to two days by delivering outbound mail directly to OSMC personnel at Naha International Airport instead of depending on OSAP personnel at Xadena Air Base Money Order sales for the Main Body reached $35000 by the end of deployment

PUBLIC AFFAIRS OPPICE

Under the current bat talion mode one photographers mate is assigned to the Gold Team while the journalist provides PAO coverage for the Blue Team As a result of pending disciplinary action Gold III was without adequate PAO staffing at the beginning of the deployment The journalist from the Blue Team was transferred back to Okinawa after a homeport leave period to continue PAO coverage Adequate photo and journalist support was provided throughshyout the deployment Oet site coverage relied upon support from host stations Battalion news releases appeared in various publications including the PACIFIC STARS ANO STRIPES and the SEABEE COVERALL

ADMINISTRATION

1 Lessons learned

a Problem~Item The Operational Readiness Inspection (ORI) was con ucted approximately 5 weeks after the beginshyning of the deployment

1 Discussion Significant time and effort was necesshysary to prepare for this inspection It came at a most inopportune time early deployment confusion E-3 and below evaluations due 31 January quarterl y reports due in Jan ale

2 ActionRecommendation While it is recognized that travel fund conatrilnts forced the inspection to be conducted at this time it nevertheless forced the battalion to devote too much time at a cr1tical stage of deployment to the inspection effort It is strongly recommended that all inspections (ORI Air Det ect) be conducted about lllid depshyloyment timeframe to avoid crisis managementbull preparation

MEDICAL

TOTAL PATIENTS VISITS 2033

HOSPITAL CASES 11

SIGNIFICANT EVENTS

(1) During the deployment there was a marked increase in out-patient health care delivery workload which can be directly attributed towards more accessible sickcall hours and recent trends towards viewing medical care as a right rather than a privilege

(2) An Interservice Support Agreement with the Naval Regional Medical Center Okinawa enhanced the procurement of medical material from a six month requisition to three days for routine supplies and one day for emergency supplies or contingencies In addition the aforementioned agreement provided resources which significantly improved the battalions occupationalindustrial and preventive medicine readiness

(3) Refurbishment and replacement of medical equipshyment through constant research and inquiry aided the Medical Department in setting up a medical laboratory and X-ray department in order to meet mission requirements and commitshyments

4) In conjunction with the Battalion Safety Policy Committee a Chemical Control Committee was established to identify properly handle and dispose of hazardous chemical agents used onboard the camp

DENTAL

PATIENTS TREATED 206

TOTAL PROCEDURES 389

SIGNIFICANT EVENTS

The Battalion Dental Officer and dental technicians normally remain in homeport to provide dental care and screening for the homeport team All personnel are screened early in homeport to identify any dental problems which must be corrected prior to deployment Approximately midway through the deployment the Dental Officer and his staff travel to all deployment sites to conduct prehomeport dental screens In this manner a dynamic dental care program is provided Adequate routine care is provided by Dental Branch Offices located at each deployment site

EDUCATIONAL SERVICBS OFFICE

The team Career Counselor maintains the ESO Library with the aid of CompanyDepartment Career Counselors Of the 114 candidates (Blue and Gold Teams) who participated in the March 80 Navy-Wide Advancement Examination 83 were selected for advancement 29 were passed but not advanced (PNA) and 2 failed This is a 98 passing rate and is consistent with previous exam passing rates for NMCB THREE personnel Two individuals from NMCB THREE were selected for the Navys Enlisted Education Advancement Program (REAP) which was first introduced this year bull

POSTAL

The Post Office is operated by a PCl and PC3 After initiating a test letter program to evaluate delivery time between deployment sites and homeport new procedures were instituted to reduce transit time Transit time for CONOS bound mail from Okinawa was reduced by one to two days by delivering outbound mail directly to OSMC personnel at Naha International Airport instead of depending on OSAP personnel at Xadena Air Base Money Order sales for the Main Body reached $35000 by the end of deployment

PUBLIC AFFAIRS OPPICE

Under the current bat talion mode one photographers mate is assigned to the Gold Team while the journalist provides PAO coverage for the Blue Team As a result of pending disciplinary action Gold III was without adequate PAO staffing at the beginning of the deployment The journalist from the Blue Team was transferred back to Okinawa after a homeport leave period to continue PAO coverage Adequate photo and journalist support was provided throughshyout the deployment Oet site coverage relied upon support from host stations Battalion news releases appeared in various publications including the PACIFIC STARS ANO STRIPES and the SEABEE COVERALL

TOTAL PATIENTS VISITS 2033

HOSPITAL CASES 11

SIGNIFICANT EVENTS

(1) During the deployment there was a marked increase in out-patient health care delivery workload which can be directly attributed towards more accessible sickcall hours and recent trends towards viewing medical care as a right rather than a privilege

(2) An Interservice Support Agreement with the Naval Regional Medical Center Okinawa enhanced the procurement of medical material from a six month requisition to three days for routine supplies and one day for emergency supplies or contingencies In addition the aforementioned agreement provided resources which significantly improved the battalions occupationalindustrial and preventive medicine readiness

(3) Refurbishment and replacement of medical equipshyment through constant research and inquiry aided the Medical Department in setting up a medical laboratory and X-ray department in order to meet mission requirements and commitshyments

4) In conjunction with the Battalion Safety Policy Committee a Chemical Control Committee was established to identify properly handle and dispose of hazardous chemical agents used onboard the camp
