Army Disaster Personnel Accountability and Assessment System

Army Disaster Personnel Accountability and Assessment System (ADPAAS)

 

In the event that a manmade or a natural disaster affects the

Soldiers, civilians and dependents assigned to the 1st Mission Support

Command, Commanders Representatives (COR) must commence accountability

and assessment process using the procedures established by the ADPAAS.

 

This is to ensure the wellness and status of the 1stMSC personnel to determine the need for assistance. This is also done to safeguard our capabilities from the effects of a natural or manmade disaster; in order to deploy capabilities in support of civil authorities within Puerto Rico to assist.

 

From 29 August thru 8 September 2011, the ADPAAS Team (Ms. Mercedes Torres

Medina (ADPASS Manager) and SFC Luis A. Camacho Leon (ADPASS Alternate

Manager) visited the US Army Reserve units throughout the island and trained 38 Commanders' Representatives (COR).

 

These COR are the Subject Matter Experts at the Regional Support Group/Bn/unit level and are capable to train their Soldiers in the use of the ADPAAS. If necessary they can train and assign other COR’s as well.

 

At the end, the Army Disaster personnel Accountability and Assessment System is another way through which the US Army Reserve in Puerto Rico and the 1stMSC takes care of its soldiers, civilians and family members.
