            1. Situation. Physical proof of Iraq's use of chemical or
            biological agents will impact on national policy decisions, and
            be used against Iraq at the World Court.

            2. Mission. No change.

                Execution.


                a. Concept of the Operation. Units will collect samples of
            Iraq's use of chemical or biological agents. The chain of
            custody will start at the unit detecting the agent, continue
            through the supported unit or 7th Engineer Brigade, to the VII
            Corps technical intelligence assets. Units will ensure an
            unbroken chain of custody (similar to urinalysis samples).

                b. Sub-unit Instructions. All 7th Engineer Brigade units
            will be prepared to collect samples of Iraqi use of chemical or
            biological agents.

                E:. Coordinating Instructions.

                    (1) There is no standard container required +or these
            samples. However they must be airtight and preferably opaque.
            To protect the samples, non-opaque containers will be placed in a
            dark over-container 4,+ possible. A sample approximately the size
            of an ADAP bottle is sufficient. Units will decontaminate the
            exterior of the bottle once they collect the sample. An M23GAI
            Skin Decon Kit or bleach will remove any possible agents. Once
            the bottle is decontaminated, individuals will wear protective
            gloves when handling the bottle.

                         The following information will be on the sample
ner:


                    (a) The name (printed and signed), grade, SSN of the
            individual taking the sample.

                    (b) The designation and UIC of unit taking sample.

                    (c) The time and place of sample.

                    (di Each new custodian must sign for responsibility.
            This will include the time of transfer.

                    (3) Units will confirm Iraqi chemical use using organic
            chemical detection equipment. If this equipment indicates a
            chemical agent, units will submit an NBC-1, conduct other actions
