The Fort Jackson’s primary mission is providing the Army with highly trained, disciplined, motivated and physically fit warriors who espouse the Army’s core values and are focused on teamwork. During the course of training, soldiers are conducting field exercises at various ranges and remote locations around the installation.

Therefore, portable chemical toilets are used in the absence of available latrine facilities. Additionally, special events often generate a need for portable chemical toilets.
