In combat, safety is essential to force preservation. Statistics show that - * In World War II, one out of every five American soldiers killed died as a result of an accident. * In Korea, more than half the Army personnel who were hospitalized were injured in accidents. * In Vietnam, accidents killed 5,700 soldiers, disabled more than 106,000 others, and produced nearly 5 million nondisabling injuries. These are more than just numbers. They're a measurement of a serious loss of combat assets at a time when we could least afford to lose them -- the heat of battle. We must strive to keep such losses from happening on any future battlefield. We can do this by -- * Establishing and enforcing high standards of performance. * Creating a command climate of "tough caring." * Using risk management principles to make good decisions. * Recognizing the effects of stress and fatigue on performance. Let us not forget that accident prevention is an important weapon in our arsenal; using it will multiply our combat power by preserving our assets. This pamphlet is a quick reference intended to help unit leaders prevent accidents during Operation Desert Shield, thereby saving lives and preserving their combat assets.

This pamphlet is intended to be used as a quick reference by unit leaders to help prevent accidents and save lives during the redeployment of our troops from Southwest Asia. In a 1 March message, General H. Norman Schwarzkopf, Commander in Chief, U.S. Central Command, said, "During Operation Desert Shield, we were called upon to rapidly deploy and prepare for battle. Understandably, some risks were taken in the largest, most rapid movement of military forces in U.N. history. We took chances and 60 servicemembers' lives were lost during that operation.... We are now preparing for the last phase - returning home. The urgency of combat operations is no longer present. It would be absolutely criminal if after this historically successful campaign, with minimum loss of life, we accepted additional losses through carelessness, poor leadership, or negligence. I, therefore, charge every unit, down to the lowest level, to adopt the motto

In every operation, whether combat or humanitarian assistance, force protection is essential to success. Statistics show that during such operations, soldiers are more likely to be killed or injured from an accident than from any other cause. In World War II, 56 percent of the casualties were from accidents; in Korea, it was 44 percent; Vietnam was 55 percent; and, in Desert Shield/Storm, it was an alarming 75 percent. These are more than just numbers. They represent a serious loss in our ability to accomplish our mission. As such, they present a significant leadership challenge.
