In order to plan for the most effective civil - military cooperation possible in such emergencies, this headquarters considers it important to emphasize the conditions under which it may act and how it is organized for this action. A sunnary of this information is attached as Inclosure 1. In turn, this headquarters would find it helpful to have certain information relative to the capabilities of your community, in the event of a disaster. Attached for your information is Inclosure No 1. Please complete for return to this headquarters, either Inclosure No 2 or 3 as appropriate and Inclosure 4. Mr. Clyde Yaun, Operations Offi- cer, Division of Defense and Disaster, Austin, Texas suggested that your office was best prepared to furnish this information for your County. If you have any additional comments or questions on this subject please feel free to communicate with this headquarters at any time. Sincerely, 4 Incls JEAN P. WILLIS 1.

Description of Capabilities of Operational and Supporting Services FH FL 301(G3)(One -time) 2 J 59 MILITARY PARTICIPATION IN DISASTER RELIEF 1. MILITARY ASSISTANCE: a. Military assistance in disaster relief will not be undertaken except in "major" disasters, so proclaimed by the President, unless: (1) Local resources available to the respective State and municipal authorities, augmented by those available to the Red Cross in the affected areas, are clearly inadequate to cope with the situation, and (2) The overruling demands of humanity compel immediate action. to prevent starvation and extreme suffering. b. In cases of "imminent necessity" so dangerous as to preclude the receipt of timely instructions from higher authority, any military commander will take action as is necessary and reasonably justified (1) To save life (2) To prevent immediate human suffering (3) To mitigate great destruction or damage to public prop- erty of the United States. c. Military assistance is supplemental to and not a substitute for State and local action., is authorized only during the actual existence of an emergency, is not authorized during the period of rehabilitation which normally follows a disaster, and will be withdrawn at the earliest practical moment. d. The recipient of assistance will be billed for expenses incurred by the military over and above normal operating expenses. 2. ORGANIZATION: a. Primary responsibility for the coordination of military assist- ance in disaster relief for the States of Arkansas, Louisiana, New Mexico, Oklahoma, and Texas has been delegated to the Commanding General, Fourth U. S. Army, Fort Sam Houston, Texas. b. The Commanding General, Fort Hood, upon receipt of a request for military assistance from civil authorities, may commit his resources without direction from Headquarters Fourth U. S. Army except in. cases of "imminent necessity" described in paragraph lb, above. Action. by Head- quarters Fourth U. S. Army is based on a determination that the need for assistance comes within. the conditions under which relief operations may be undertaken. by the military (paragraphs la, b and c, above). These conditions are normally substantiated by communication with the State through Region. 5, Office of Civil and Defense Mobilization. (OCDM), Denton., Texas. Therefore, although requests for assistance may be made by civil Zn.cl 1 authorities at any level of the military establishment, communities which have been struck by disaster and have exhausted their awn resources are encouraged to forward their requests for assistance to their own. State authorities. The latter should employ the resources available to them. In the event overall needs cannot be met, State authorities may call upon Fourth U. S. Army, preferably through Region: 5, OCDM. Commanding General, Fourth U. S. Army, may then. authorize Commanding General, Fort Hood, to commit his resources, commit other Fourth Army resources, if necessary, and /or request assistance from Eighth Naval District and /or Tenth Air Force. 2 DESCRIPTION OF CAPABILITIES OF OPERATIONAL AND SUPPORTING SERVICES Describe the capabilities of the following operational services: (Ref: Sec III Civil Defense and Disaster Relief Organizational Manual for Local Governments Texas - 1958) 1.

Upon receipt of your letter, we began some work toward recruiting teachers for this workshop. The county civil defense organisation requested that I serve as the oo- ordinator with the Bryan and College Station schools. Mr. Crenshaw of Bryan and Mr. W. T.

Mr. Crenshaw designated T. C. lieLarty, Princi- pal of Ben Milaw Elementary Sohool. MMr. Riedel designated J. C. Chaney, Indus- trial Art and Driver Education instructor.

Nove ler 21, 1959 MEMORANDUM TO: Local Civil Defense Director FROM;: State Civic Defense Headquarters SUBJECT: Civil Defense Emergency Hospital Program The Office of Civil and Defense Mobilization has announced the allocation of 20 additional civil defense emergency hospital units to the State of Texas. Most of you have probably heard of this program whereby a local civil defense organization may receive for storage one of these 200 -bed emergency units. The only criteria for placement is that adequate storage facilities must be available, that proper care be given the unit, and that the area requesting the unit not be a target or critical target area. These packaged units are not for use except in the event of enemy attack or major natural disaster, but they nevertheless provide a most important psychological protection factor for your citizens and show an awareness on your part for the safety of the people in your com- munity. All directors who have considered requesting one of these units are urged to make application at once. Those of you not familiar with the program can obtain further information by writing this Headquarters. At present, 49 units are in storage in Texas, and 4 units ( Houston, Galveston, San Antonio and Dallas) have been loaned to the State for training purposes, CCDMI reports it is essential that all agreements for these 20 available units be processed before February 1, 1960, as a further review on that date will be made for adjustments in allocations not utilized. Moreover, the current allocation exhausts the total units purchased by GCDM for prepositioning purposes. Your applications and inquiries will be welcomed. C5?( - I .C4,4./1/1„ - James H.

Some tentative listings from OCDM which I have seen have omitted Bryan. In our State Survival Plan we list Brazos County for Reception and Care for Houston - Harris County. It should be pointed out, however, that if you have the required long landing strip, there is always the possibility that you might be suddenly put into use if other bases should be bombed out.
