         From: Commanding General, I Marine Expeditionary Force

         Subj: I MEF CASUALTY SECTION AFTER ACTION REPORT

         Enel: (1) I MEF Casualty Statistics
                (2) I MEF Casualty After Action Report

         1. The enclosed report provides valuable insight into the breadth and
         scope of our casualty assistance efforts in-support of Operations
         Desert Shield and Desert Storm. Combined with the after action report
         from CG FMFEUR, we should have a good baseline to plan for future
         contingencies of this magnitude. The system worked well due to the
         imagination, hard work and concern for the well-being of our troops
         injured on the field of battle by all concerned. My hope is that we
         can use this information to make the next iteration easier.

         2. Additionally, I have attached some interesting statistical infor-
         mation that breaks out our casualties into types and'categories as well
         as a complete by-name roster. Future planners and other interested
         parties will find these statistics to be very revealing--I know I have.

         3. I have instructed my Assistant Chief of Staff, G-1 to forward our
         entire database to the Director of Manpower and Reserve Affairs at
         Headquarters, U. S. Marine Corps for further study after we retrograde
         from Southwest Asia.
