Fort Dix Nuclear/Chemical Accident/Incident Control Plan FD-NCAICP
Fort Dix NJ: Headquarters US Army Training Center 1976. Wraps. Good. Pencil erasure residue on first page. Includes illustrations. Three-hole punched and staple bound. Various paginationsapproximately 150 pages. References. Thius plan was published for the information guidance and necessary action of commanders directors and office/activity chiefs concerns and supersedes the previous plan dated 1 February 1975. From Wikipedia: "Fort Dix the common name for the Dix unit of Joint Base McGuire-Dix-Lakehurst is a United States Army base located approximately 16.1 miles 25.9 km south-southeast of Trenton New Jersey. Dix is under the jurisdiction of the United States Army Reserve Command USARC. Fort Dix established in 1917 was consolidated with two adjoining U.S. Air Force and Navy facilities to became part of Joint Base McGuire-Dix-Lakehurst JB MDL on 1 October 2009. However it remains commonly known as Fort Dix as of 2012.Fort Dix is named for Major General John Adams Dix a veteran of the War of 1812 and the Civil War. Construction began in June 1917. Camp Dix as it was known at the time was a training and staging ground for units during World War I. The camp became a demobilization center after the war. Between the World Wars Camp Dix was a reception training and discharge center for the Civilian Conservation Corps. Camp Dix became Fort Dix on March 8 1939 and the installation became a permanent Army post. During and after World War II the fort served the same purpose as in the first World War. It served as a training and staging ground during the war and a demobilization center after the war. On July 15 1947 Fort Dix became a Basic Training Center and the home of the 9th Infantry Division. In 1954 the 9th moved out and the 69th Infantry Division made the fort home until it was deactivated on March 16 1956. During the Vietnam War rapid expansion took place. A mock Vietnam village was constructed and soldiers received Vietnam-specific training before being deployed. Since Vietnam Fort Dix has sent soldiers to Operation Desert Shield Desert Storm Bosnia Afghanistan and Iraq. The Atlantic Strike Team AST of the U.S. Coast Guard is based at Fort Dix. As part of the Department of Homeland Security the AST is responsible for responding to oil pollution and hazardous materials release incidents to protect public health and the environment. Fort Dix is also home to Fort Dix Federal Correctional Institution the largest single federal prison in America. It is a low security installation for male inmates located within the military installation. As of November 19 2009 it housed 4 310 inmates and a minimum-security satellite camp housed an additional 426. Inmates use plastic pouches of mackerel as commodity money. Knowing that Fort Dix was on a base closure list the U.S. Air Force attempted to save the U.S. Army post during 1987. The USAF moved the Security Police Air Base Ground Defence school from Camp Bullis Texas to Dix in the fall of 1987. It was eventually realized that it was not cost effective to put 50-100 S.P. trainees on a commercial flight from San Antonio Texas to Philadelphia Pennsylvania every couple of weeks so the school was later moved back to Camp Bullis Texas. Fort Dix was an early casualty of the first Base Realignment and Closure process in the early 1990s losing the basic-training mission that had introduced new recruits to military life since 1917. But Fort Dix advocates attracted Army Reserve interest in keeping the 31 000-acre 13 000 ha post as a training reservation. With the reserves and millions for improvements Fort Dix actually has grown again to employ 3 000. As many as 15 000 troops train there on weekends and the post has been a major mobilization point for reserve and National Guard troops since the September 11 2001 attacks on New York City and Washington D.C. Fort Dix has completed its realignment from an individual training center to a FORSCOM Power Projection Platform for the Northeastern United States under the command and control of the United States Army Reserve Command. Primary missions include being a center of excellence for training mobilizing and deploying. Headquarters, US Army Training Center paperback

General Orders 1-33 # 16 absent for 1917. General Orders 1-40 111 120-125 128-129 132 134-140. A remarkable substantial set of WWI Divisional General Orders covering the Division for the time Major General John O'Ryan assumed command on July 25 1917 to General Order 140 of August 25 1918. This may have belonged to Major later Colonel John Tabor Loree who after the war was a senior official at the Delaware and Hudson Railroad. From Wikiepedia: "The 27th Infantry Division was a unit of the Army National Guard in World War I and World War II. The division traces its history from the New York Division formed originally in 1908. The 6th Division designation was changed to the 27th Division in July 1917. When the New York Division was organized in 1908 the New York National Guard became the second state after Pennsylvania to structure its National Guard at such a high tactical level in peacetime. The New York Division was called to active duty during the Mexican border crisis of 1916. While on federal duty it was redesignated as the 6th Division in June 1916. It was released from active duty in December 1916 only to be recalled for World War I service in July 1917. The 6th Division was reorganized and redesignated as the 27th Division on 1 October 1917.Called into federal service on July 15 1917 the Twenty-Seventh Division hastily recruited to increase its numbers and late in August was concentrated at Camp Wadsworth near Spartanburg SC for intensive training. In the spring of 1918 the division began its movement toward embarkation camps. The division s advance detachment left Hoboken on May 2 and arrived at Brest France May 10 1918. Until July 24 the division was in the final stages of training under British mentors in Picardy and Flanders. On July 25 the 27th Division occupied the Dickebusch Lake and Scherpenberg sectors in Flanders. The great Somme "push " lasting from September 24 to October 1 saw the 27th engaged in severe fighting along the Saint Quentin Canal Tunnel. Later the Twenty-Seventh Division was back into action again moving steadily toward Busigny. Major Operations: Meuse-Argonne only the artillery Ypres-Lys Somme offensive. Battle of Dickebusche Lake Summer 1918 Battle of Vierstratt Ridge Summer 1918 Hindenburg Line September 1918. Somme Offensive 25 September 1918 Selle River November 1918" United States Army, 27th Division hardcover

Various paginations approximately 100 pages. Glossary. This handbook presents a snapshot in time after the two Persian Gulf Wars of the organization and operation of the United States Army's Command and General Staff College as illustrated by the information they provide to the officers coming into this prestigious institution. From Wikipedia: "The United States Army Command and General Staff College CGSC or obsolete USACGSC at Fort Leavenworth Kansas is a graduate school for United States Army and sister service officers interagency representatives and international military officers. The college was established in 1881 by William Tecumseh Sherman as the School of Application for Infantry and Cavalry later simply the Infantry and Cavalry School a training school for infantry and cavalry officers. In 1907 it changed its title to the School of the Line. The curriculum expanded throughout World War I World War II the Korean War and the Vietnam War and continues to adapt to include lessons learned from current conflicts. In addition to the main campus at Fort Leavenworth the college has satellite campuses at Fort Belvoir Virginia; Fort Lee Virginia; Fort Gordon Georgia; and Redstone Arsenal Alabama. The satellite campuses provide non-residential distance learning opportunities." From a U.S. Army Combined Arms Center website: "Since its inception in 1881 as the School of Application for Infantry and Cavalry the Command and General Staff College CGSC has evolved to meet the educational and operational needs of the United States Army. Since World War II it has generally been known as the school for Army majors though the College contains other schools and it educates officers from other military services and from other countries. Since 2008 the CGSC is part of CAC Leader Development and Education CAC LD&E along with a number of other schools and centers whose missions are centered on leader development and education. MISSION: The US Army Command and General Staff College USACGSC educates and develops leaders for full spectrum joint interagency and multinational operations; acts as lead agent for the Army s leader development program; and advances the art and science of the profession of arms in support of Army operational requirements. VISION: The US Army Command and General Staff College is and will always strive to be an educational center of excellence. We must remain a renowned academic leader in the study of leadership the conduct of joint and combined land warfare and the application of Joint Interagency and Multi-National organizations to synchronize all elements of power to achieve national objectives. We will continue to support field commanders with well-trained and well-educated leaders in-depth research in the professional body of knowledge and reach-back planning in support of ongoing operations. We will maintain our world-class faculty dedicated to learning and advancing the professional body of knowledge. The US Army Command and General Staff College's enduring purpose supporting Army Leader Development and Education and Professional Military Education provides a stable beacon for the future. USACGSC executes professional military education programs through its four schools: the Command and General Staff School the School of Advanced Military Studies the School for Command Preparation and the School for Advanced Leadership and Tactics all at Fort Leavenworth Kan.; and its four satellite campuses at Fort Belvoir Va. Fort Lee Va. Fort Gordon Ga. and Redstone Arsenal Ala. USACGSC ensures the professional vitality of the US Army's corps of officers by preparing them to discharge their duties in the service of our nation. Today's contemporary operating environment requires leaders for tomorrow's joint interagency and multinational operations. We must replicate that operational environment in the classroom therefore USACGSC is more than an "Army" school; we are a joint interagency and multinational college with.

Ranger Handbook: SH 21-76
Alexandria VA: Bryyd Enterprises Distributor 1998. Wraps. Very good. No dust jacket. Minor sticker residue on rear cover. Includes: illustrations diagrams. Various paginations. Glossary. This publication is both an extract of doctrinal publications and a compilaiton of tactics techniques and procedures taught in the U.S. Army Ranger School. It is principally designed as a pocket references for students of the U.S. Amry Ranger School. From Wikipedia: "United States Army Rangers are elite members of the United States Army. Rangers have served in recognized U.S. Army Ranger units or have graduated from the U.S. Army's Ranger School. The term "Ranger" was first used in North America in the early 17th century; however the first ranger company was not officially commissioned until King Philip's War 1676 and then they were used in the four French and Indian Wars. Rangers also fought in the American Revolution the War of 1812 and the American Civil War. The six battalions of the modern Rangers have been deployed in wars in Korea Vietnam Afghanistan and Iraq and saw action in several conflicts such as those in Panama and Grenada. Of the current active Ranger battalions two the 1st and the 2nd have been in service since reactivation in 1974. The 3rd Ranger Battalion and the headquarters of the 75th Ranger Regiment were reactivated in 1984. The 75th Ranger Regiment is now a light infantry combat formation within the U.S. Army Special Operation Command USASOC. The Ranger Regiment traces its lineage to three of six battalions raised in WWII and to the 5307th Composite Unit Provisional known as Merrill's Marauders and then reflagged as the 475th Infantry then later as the 75th Infantry. The Ranger Training Brigade RTB headquartered at Fort Benning GA is an organization under the U.S. Army's Training and Doctrine Command TRADOC and is separate from the 75th Ranger Regiment. It has been in service under various names and Army departments since World War II. The Ranger Training Brigade administrates Ranger School. Successful completion of this 61-day course is required to become Ranger qualified and to wear the Ranger Tab.After the Vietnam War division and brigade commanders determined that the U.S. Army needed elite rapidly deployable light infantry so in 1974 General Creighton Abrams constituted the 1st Ranger Battalion; eight months later the 2nd Ranger Battalion was constituted and in 1984 the 3rd Ranger Battalion and their regimental headquarters were created. In 1986 the 75th Ranger Regiment was formed and their military lineage formally authorized. The 75th Ranger Regiment comprising three battalions is the premier light-infantry of the U.S. Army. It is the deadly combination of special operations and elite airborne light infantry. The Regiment is a flexible highly trained and rapid light infantry unit specialized to be employed against any special operations targets. All Rangers whether they are in the 75th Ranger Regiment or Ranger School or both are taught to live by the Ranger Creed. The 4th 5th and 6th Ranger Battalions were re-activated as the Ranger Training Brigade the cadre of instructors of the contemporary Ranger School; moreover because they are parts of a TRADOC school the 4th 5th and 6th battalions are not formally included to the active strength of the 75th Ranger Regiment. The Rangers have participated in numerous operations throughout modern history. In 1980 the Rangers were involved with Operation Eagle Claw the 1980 rescue attempt of American hostages in Tehran Iran. In 1983 the 1st and 2nd Ranger Battalions conducted Operation Urgent Fury in Grenada. All three Ranger battalions with a headquarters element participated in the U.S. invasion of Panama Operation Just Cause in 1989. Bravo Company the first platoon and Anti-Tank section from Alpha Company 1st Battalion was deployed in the First Persian Gulf War Operations Desert Storm and Desert Shield in 1991. Bravo Company 3rd Ranger Battalion was the base unit of Task Force Ranger in Operation Gothic Serpent in Somalia in 1993 concurrent with Operation Restore Hope. In 1994 soldiers from.
