          3. RECOMMENDATIONS:

               a. Panzer Hotel Dining Facility.
                    (1)   All food must be covered to prevent contamination.
          Leftovers are not allowed in Theater due to the possibility of
          contamination. Meat products can not be refrozon. However,
          uncooked meat can be maintained in a refrigerator for up to 72
          hours.

                    (2) Thermometers (NSN f 6685-00-444-6500) can be
          ordered from supply. Food service personnel should use
          thermometers to monitor food temperatures. Additionally, the
          thermometers should be placed in the refrigerators/freezers to
          monitor internal temperatures. The PM DET-SWA can provide a
          small number of thermometers.

                    (3) Food service personnel must ensure that the caterer
          is using proper dish washing procedures per TB MED 530.

                    (4) The latrines must be cleaned twice daily. A water
          solution that contains one cup of bleach per gallon of water
          should be used. It is not recommended that personnel involved in
          the food preparation or serving be used to clean the latrines.

                     (5) The showers should be relocated onto the hard
          stand. The hard stand will help evaporate the water quickly.
          Personnel must not urinate in the showers. Showers must be
          cleaned weekly with the water solution from above.

                     (6) The soakage pit is a nuisance and health hazard.
          The area around the pit needs to be policed and cleaned. If use
          of the pit is continued, it should be pumped by an SST as often
          as necessary (minimum daily) to prevent over flow.
                     (7) The waste tank needs to be pumped down daily by an
          SST. Spilled waste must be cleaned and the tank must stay
          covered.

                (8) Drinks and sodas can not be stored in water due to
          possible contamination.

                b. Wash Rack. The chain of command must ensure that the
          latrines are kept clean. The SSTs are not responsible for
          cleaning the inside of the latrines. The water solution of one
          cup of bleach per gallon of water can be used to clean and
          disinfect the latrines. A hand washing device must be located by
          the latrines. A wash stand connected to a field shower makes an
          excellent hand washing device.
