Sustainment Planning Factors 07 December 2020 ATP 5-0.2-1 267 G-68. Type II HCP is for female Soldiers and contains articles for feminine hygiene. It supplies 10 females for approximately 30 days. G-69. Type III HCP consists of a personal body wipe packet, bulk packed with 40 packets per box. Each packet contains 10 washcloth-sized body wipes. The contents of each box are intended for 10 individuals. CL VII G-70. Major end items such as rolling stock, aircraft, large generators, oversized items, and weapons are delivered into theater using strategic lift. Use of Army prepositioned stocks (APS), reallocation of materiel, theater provided equipment (TPE), and other pre-positioned stocks of materiel can significantly reduce the time required to make a force combat ready. Planners use these avenues of materiel supply to the greatest extent possible for initial deployment and resupply. Resupply of major end items is conducted in the same manner as for other stocks. CL VIII G-71. The Army's medical logistics (MEDLOG) system is an integral part of the Army health system (AHS). It provides intensive management of medical products and services that are used almost exclusively by the AHS and are critical to its success (see ATP 4-02.1 for more details). The brigade medical supply office is an integral member of the Army medical logistics enterprise. The brigade medical supply officer in charge oversees, manages, and coordinates MEDLOG activities with the assistance of the support operations (SPO) MEDLOG officer. The brigade medical supply officer in charge advises the SPO and the brigade support medical company on all MEDLOG or MEDLOG-related issues. G-72. The BSB medical operations section, in concert with the brigade surgeon section and medical company commander, plans for all brigade Army health system support operations. The medical operations section takes into account the placement of brigade AHS support assets and their logistical footprint. They also coordinate the ordering, receipt, and distribution of Class VIII within the BCT. G-73. Storage of medical supplies is often controlled and requires specialized warehouse variants such as climate controlled spaces, access control features, and hazardous material considerations. The brigade medical supply officer plans for these requirements (see TC 8-270 for details on requirements and capabilities). G-74. TC 8-270 also details support requirements for blood management, medical gas storage and distribution, medical waste, optical requirements, controlled substance requirements, and other health service support topics (see health service support beginning at paragraph G-167 for additional details). CL IX G-75. CL IX repair parts are managed under the Army Maintenance System (for more information, see the Army Maintenance System beginning at paragraph G-95 of this guide). Refueling Operations G-76. The material in this section is derived from JP 4-03, ATP 4-43, and Army Sustainment, January–February 2016. G-77. Assuming a medium truck company has a total vehicle availability rate of 100% (60 vehicle platforms) and uses their 5,000 gallon trailers to maximum capacity, the unit can provide a one-time lift capability for bulk fuel of 300,000 gallons of fuel. G-78. Fuel in theater and the ability to distribute that fuel from national levels to the user can be the determining factor in culmination or effective unit operations. In LSCO, fuel can be the ultimate "show stopper" if not delivered on time or in sufficient quantities. G-79. Storage capacity and vehicle consumption rates are considerable concerns to the planning and execution of refueling operations. Tables G-14 through G-17 on page 268 show planning factors for fuel storage, transport, and consumption (source: Combined Arms Support Command's (CASCOM's) Planning
