a. The support provided by DPCA/Safety Division to help
deploy 937th Eng Group, Ist Infantry Division (M) and Reserve
Units from Fort Riley fell into the areas of training, safety
materials, over-time hours and incremental costs (supply). Only
two reportable accidents occurred during the weapon +iring,
train up, equipment preparation/load up, convoys, and rail
loading of over 6000 pieces of equipment. A major factor which
helped lower the accident rate at Fort Riley was the advanced
information we received from Fort Steward, Fort Bragg, and Fort
Hood which identified problem areas associated with deployment.

was designed to update the trained unit safety officer on
deployment hazards and Desert Shield accident reporting
requirements. Additionaltraining was provided to non-prior

basic responsibilities. Over 170 active duty and reserve
unit safety officer/NCO's received training during ten 4-hour
sessions. Topics covered during the training were: safety
program requirements; lessons learned from other deployed
units/posts; high risk/potential hazard events; Desert Shield
nd accident prevention countermeasures.
Training material designed to be taken back to the units for use
in briefing/training soldiers on preventative measures +or
coping with the hazards of deployment and desert operations were
provided.
(2) A wide range of materials was provided to unit
safety personnel, commanders, o++i-cers, NCOs and soldiers which
addressed accident prevention, accident countermeasures, and
risk management in-Formation. Over 1500 copies of the Army
Safety Center's "Desert Shield Safety Handbook for Leaders" were
