            1. The PDS Report is a mandatory daily report to be submitted
            to the Corps G-1 via the telecommunications system, TACCS,
            secure FAX, secure voice, or courier. The initial PDS report
            will be submitted NLT N+S. Units that use an N-hour sequence
            greater than 18 hours will submit their initial PDS NLT N+12.
            The subsequent PDS reports will reflect the unit's current
            personnel status as of 0600 local and submitted NLT 1400 local.
            The report is divided into four parts; Part I - UNIT STRENGTH,
            Part II - ATTACHMENT, Part III - DETACHMENT, Part IV - REMARKS.
            Each line reflects a specific category of information by (o)-
            Officers, (W)-Warrant Officers, (E)-Enlisted, (C) Civilians,
            (T)-Totals, and (F) Females required to develop the personnel
            priority model. This form will be used for both the ACTUAL and
            EXERCISE PDS reports. The ACTUAL and EXERCISE reports will be
            submitted separately.

            2. PDS REPORT HEADING.

            is submitted, the REPORT NUMBER will be followed by A, B, C

            battalions).

                b. Column B - The REQ (required) column reflects the unit's
