74
catapults on Nimitizv versus Ford carriers
NIMITZ: traditional steam catapultsFord: EMALS (Electromagnetic Aircraft Launch System)
75
EMALS
```Electromagnetic Aircraft Launch Systems*catapult system on Ford class carriers```
76
how do steam catapults work
on Nimitz carriers* 2 cylinders that run the length of a football field* high pressure steam is ported into the cylinders forcing the pistn down the cylinder at a high rate of speed = slinging the aircraft off the flight deck
77
what resets aircraft post steam catapult launch
water break slows down the piston so it can be retracted for hte next launch
78
how does the EMALS catapult system work
uses a linear motor drive in place of the steam pistons.* electric current generates a magnetic field that propels a carriage downt eh cat track* gradual accel so less stress on airframes* more precise control of launch performance so it can launch a greater variety of aircraft compared to the traditional steam catapults (includign unmanned)
79
prevents damage form high jet exhaust during catapult launches
JBD = jet blast deflector| *heavy duty metal pa
80
where is the JBD located
JBD = jet blast deflector| located at the rear of the catapult
81
state of the JBD when it is not in use
JBD= jet blast deflector| recessed & flush with the flight deck when not in use
82
state of the JBD when in use
when an aircraft is positioned on the catapult for launch, the JBD will be raised by several hydraulic cylinders. when it is raised, hot exhaust from launching aircraft wiill be directed upwards*so another aircraft can go in position behind it and deck personnel can do pre-launch checks/inspections w/o danger of hot jet exhaust

obtain valuabel intel/lessons learned to help the DOD defeat enemy, complete mision, prtect
protect health/welfare ofhte returned,
return em,otionally and physically healthy.
return to duty with the necessary family/unit/socialsupport to give them the best chance to reintegrate
247
separation from unit/agency
isolating event
248
PISA
post isolation support activity
- att he request of the agency/leading (DOS)
reintegration for non-DOD personnel
- we then "sell them" on teh process. can be hard but those who don't do it are wose off mentally and DOD loses valuabel inte
PISA is 21 days authorized
249
REintegration process
Phase 1: 24-48hrs. set of activities, not place. often in theatre
Phase 2: 4-14 days
phase 3: CONUS at BAMC. as long as needed.
Sigonella or Rota for Phase 2 SERE unless Langstul
Phase 2 family reunification can be messy
250
normal problems post recovery of isolated pesons
hallucinations and memory
COA for small decisions: structured and planned. okay if mom asks this you say 1/2
medical stabilize, regain ability to predict so helps establish their perception fo safety an control
tell story repeatedly in a healthy manner
have their reaction and emotions normalized
appropriate medical f/u
develop plan of action for dealing with events common to their cirumstance
reemerge in healthy lifestyle (family/work/social)
251
SERE psychology
"normal reaction to an abnormal experience"
no documentation, no dx, non-patient status
ton't touch non-psych dx until after
medical dx ony
252
primary duties of a SERE psychologist
facilitating decompression and initial
developing action plan w/returned
monitoring the well being of recovered persons
gatekeeping to the returnee
advising team chief
253
decompression
process of helping a person returned from captivity to transition back to freedom
- minimize lasting psych effects
254
recovered person and uniform
putting back in uniform quickly if you expect them to return to duty (flight suit)
255
what do recovered personnel need help bc they lose it while in captivity
returnees lose the ability to predict and control their enviornment
256
predictability in recovered personnel
body not their own for a long time
- provide 203 clear options for them
- give warning order like stethoscope
return
- return may have disrupted/aloterd
they may be concerned about minor thigns
limit paralles to confinement
adequate along time is improtant
repeatedly saying "I have a stomachache" b/c that was how they got food/medical care in coaptivity
257
problems during reintegration of recovered personnel
lack of prior coordination
lack of understanding by decision making
lack of team trained
untrained teammembers insist they are team memebrs
lack of coordination between phase teams and family support personnel
not enough action planning
too much attention by VIPS
overinvovlement w/returnees
258
what is _% of surviving SERE
80% of survival is psychological and knowing what to do
- follow code of conduct
259
Geneva Convention

2. request order clarification
3. state your disagreement with the act
4. present all moral arguments
5. seek to get the order changed

eright to bot be detaiend or have property taken unless military necessary (rules for return/compensation)
264
Geneva Convention & medical personnel
protected sitaus but they are permitted to be armed for self defense, to be guarded, and to . if captured, they can continue to care for their population
265
authoritative statement of LOW within DOD
DOD Law of War Manual
266
Law of War
collection of ratified treaties and laws which together make up general legal obligations/requirements for mil ops
- any ratified treaties US has entered into a law

267
protected persons under Geneva Convention
noncombatants
wounded/sick
chaplains
medical
parachutists escaping disabled aircraft
268
declaration of war
explicit affirmations of the existence of a state of war between the belligerent
- triggers applicability fo the 4 Geneva Convention even if the declaration is not followed by armed conflict
269
identical in all 4 Geneva Convention Traeties
all have an identical Article 3
270
Article 3 of all Geneva Conventions
prohibits acts:
murder
mutilitation
cruel treatment/torture
humiliation/degradation
sentenced/executed w/o fair trial
271
5 duties teh detaining power owes to the POW
duty of respect - no attack, kill, harm
protect - render care as their condition requires
272
MEDCOP
interactive decision-supprot platform arming command surgeons/ with real-time health survgeillance and med ops visibility tno enable more informed dicisions
- managed by JOMIS (rel-time op medicine inform ation sharing and collaboartive in/out of hte medical community
273
data soruces of MEDCOP
global C3 system
joint medical asset repositiory

274
Annex Q
bed

...
275
surgical platoons
basic building block of all trauma capabiliteis
- plt structure is task organized to meet the needs of a supported unit>scalabel to the operation/exercise while so the basic building block for surgical companies
276
MSOC
medical support operations center
277
JMOC
joint medical operations center
278
HSOC
health service operatoin scell
279
Execution timelines
Phase 1: planning
execution
retrograde
280
problem of being static when operation
critical to the conduct of the defense
- NOT wait for the enemy to strike
static = easy to find. loose intiiative
lot of maneuver in the defense. shouldn't be static
mutual support affects maneuver/flexibility. can shift combat power
281
what is the Red Cell looking for
critical vulnerabilities
282
planning considerations in the conduct of a defense
communication
plan for contingencies
logistics/resupply
maneuver. security forces to shape the battlefield
283
critical fires
biuild operational/engagement area. can use to decimiate the enemy /wmassing and tie in with the terrain
284
problem of mounted defense
if mounted, they only have certain avenues of approach. so fires are more predictiable
285
Reverse slope defense
mil tactic where the defending force is positioned on the slope of an elevated terrain feature.
- hinders the attacker ability to observe the defender's position and reduces the effectiveness of the attacker's long range weapons
286
defilade
uses natural/artificial obstacles to shield/conceal itself
287
if you know the adverary's main asset is fires
you'll need more standoff
little more security for the defense
288
4 main terms of countermobility
disrupt, turn, block, fix
- different applications against the adversary based on the effect you are trying to create
289
creating a pattern of behavior/signature
too predictable
static lifestyle/habits
- if you aren't too static, you get a better chance of more accuracy which speeds decision making
static: "we are waiting to be attacked" versus waiting to seize the intiative
- reamaining static really sin't an option. either take or shape. BUT don't let them shape you
290
key concept of maneuver warfare
defense
291
no room for it in maneuver warfare/defense
no room for complacy
292
application of mass
mass effects firs but not necesarily people or assets.Russia applies firesmass on a grid square and wipe it out. but only if you are well funded to respupply fires. so Ukrain okay b/c it has resupply support
293
proactive versus reactive fires
294
threat sensors
post to a defense. exact location leads to survivability. sensors to combat those
295
simple way to signature managemnet
MRE trail cleanup and pick up trash. gear adrift
(telephone wires in tunnel of Hamas)
296
holiday and operational planning
calendar of Islam/Jew/Christian
297
what sometimes you have to do in order to use anti-sensors and signatuer managment
you have to get close to the enemy
298
timing of jamming
gotta be in the sweets pot
299
RP
defense principle. recognize our signature going into a place
300
Osprey landing
has slows landing profile but sitting duck when landing which gives away element of surprise and they can hear us coming
301
effects of obstacles
don't place obstacles randomly. place w/a purpose
fix, block, turn, disrupt
302
information as an obstacle
overcomplicated, maybe too aobstract for them to view oas an obstacle
303
blocking/turning obstacles
can still go back.
- DOES force decision-making
304
actual perspective of lawyers when it comes to cases...
lawyers often don't really want cse to go to court
305
turning maneuvers
follow path of least resistance so they might not be aware they are being turned if natural feeling blending and convincing. but forcing into uor engagement area. walking into their slaughter
