Joint Multinational Readiness Center Hohenfels, Germany ...

TAB A (Pre-deployment)
deploying, and funding is a problem, you need to have them begin probing 7th
ATC for assistance with funding commercial or charter flights.
d. Ground transportation in Germany.
(1) If soldiers and equipment arrive together, JMRC-RC-LNO
will coordinate for buses with trailers to transport your unit from the APOD to the
JMRC. As long as your ODT unit does not bring more than about a dozen
footlockers, in addition to personal luggage, there should be enough room.
Soldiers should be issued personal weapons prior to boarding the bus.
(2) If soldiers and equipment arrive together during the tourist
season (May-Aug), the Hohenfels BMCT cannot guarantee trailers for these
buses. JMRC must then coordinate for a commercial truck through the
Hohenfels BMCT. If you arrive in Nuremberg on the weekend, the Hohenfels
BMCT has one contractor with a truck that will go to Nuremberg on the weekend.
Because of German traffic regulations, JMRC cannot put a military vehicle (i.e.
HEMMT or 5 Ton) on the road to make this trip on the weekend.
(3) If your equipment arrives separate from the main body, and
your unit has to pick it up, expect to be without the equipment for a few days. It
will take a couple of working days to get all the coordination confirmed (i.e.
commercial haul asset, TMP vehicle for armed guard escort, ammunition for
armed guard, deadly force brief, vehicle for the crew who will upload the
equipment, customs coordination, etc.).
e. Notify the JMRC-RC-LNO of your ADVON and Main Body itinerary
NLT 15 days prior to their departure date (See Annex B). It takes 15 days to
submit and confirm ground transportation assets to pick up soldiers and
equipment at the airport.
f. It is imperative that the unit arrives with their return flight
information and plane tickets. The JMRC RC-LNO will not coordinate your unit’s
return flights. Use the information in this packet to develop a plan prior to
deployment to address, at a minimum, the following requirements for
redeployment (you will have to finalize details at JMRC):
(1) Return flight departure time and location.
(2) Requested bus departure time from JMRC.
(4) Palletization plan. When and where will they be built? If you
must send all your equipment to the airport in advance to be palletized,
what/where will your soldiers sleep on before departure? Have you coordinated
for the resources required to palletize and load pallets on aircraft? If you used
