   MEMORANDUM FOR ALL COMMANDERS


   SUBJECT: Heat and Sanitation Preventive Medicine



   1. We are into changing seasons. Heat is up and we need to get
   the attention and involvement of our chain of commmand in
   preventive medicine measures.

   2. Recently, VII Corps Preventive Medicine personnel visited
   several units throughout the Corps. Several problems areas were
   noted that may negatively impact on the health of our soldiers.

   3. I want, as a minimum to place increased emphasis on the
   following areas:

           a. Proper handling and storage of perishable food items,
   particularly those requiring refrigeration, as well as overall
   sanitation measures.


           b. Heat injury prevention and the forced drinking of water
   (see attached info paper).

           C. Prohibition of personal or unit pets, mascots, or
   wild/domesticated animals.


   4. Unit field sanitation teams are a valuable local asset and
   should be utilized to ensure that proper sanitary measures are
   employed. Additionally, division and corps preventive medicine
   units are available +or assistance. The Corps Surgeon's Office
   has also provided preventive medicine fact sheets via electronic
   mail, including a recent message on coping with the heat.
