Revision 4.2 Page-9
III. CREDENTIALS
“No-Fee” Passport Department of Defense Deployers participating in the DoD Expeditionary Civilian (DoD-EC) program under USCENTCOM may require specific credentials depending on country and activities in theater. Such as a “no-fee” Official Passport as a Deployer of the U. S. government travelling abroad for official duties.
Visit your installation or local passport office
In person with a copy your offer. Although a location is designated in the offer, the passport requirement is for travel throughout CENTCOM Area of Responsibility (AOR). Your deployment is based upon mission capabilities and not location. Per the Foreign Clearance Guide, DoD civilians are eligible for a no-fee passport based on the Western Hemisphere Travel Initiative (WHTI) requirement to re-enter the US with a passport. Be persistent!
We have a very limited number of Deployers who require a VISA, confirm with the passport office all appropriate credentials.
In Possession of a “No-fee” Official Passport It must;
Expire 180 days after the end of your project deployment date; and Your name on the passport MUST match your Common Access Card (CAC).
Tourist Passport
Recommend that you also obtain and carry a “Tourist” Passport (blue cover). The cost of this passport will be at your own expense.
OCONUS CAC Card Once in receipt of TDY/CED orders you have a window of opportunity to obtain and overseas CAC card at your home station. Please make every effort to get this done prior to your departure. The CAC card will be issued during your training at Camp Atterbury if you are unable to obtain before leaving home station. All Deployed civilians will receive an Overseas CAC for the duration of the deployment plus 30 calendar days (for travel).
Schedule and work with your local DEERS/RAPIDs processing site. Confirm with that office what information or documentation must be brought to the appointment, such as;
Copy of your Orders DD Form 2365 (see note below) Two forms of ID such as
Current CAC Card Driver’s License Passport
Government NIPR (unclassified) email address
At the appointment please ensure The RAPIDS operator:
ADDs a “condition” of OCONUS-Emergency Essential Only (This will enact the Geneva conventions required for travel).
There needs to be 30 calendar days added to timeframe listed on the orders for the card. (A 395 day travel order will have a CAC card cut for 425 days).
Revision 4.2 Page-10
Note on DD2365

Revision 4.2 Page-11
IV. MEDICAL AND DENTAL CLEARANCE
All Department of Defense Deployers participating in the DoD-Expeditionary Civilian (DoD-EC) program under US CENTCOM will be medically cleared for the deployment. These examinations will determine your medical, psychological, and physical fitness for deployment in accordance with the USCENTCOM INDIVIDUAL PROTECTION AND INDIVIDUAL-UNIT DEPLOYMENT POLICY, Modification 13; commonly referred to as “MOD 13” and “MOD 13-Tab A.”
The USCENTCOM INDIVIDUAL PROTECTION AND INDIVIDUAL-UNIT DEPLOYMENT POLICY, Modification 13; commonly referred to as “MOD 13” and “MOD 13-Tab A” are very detailed regarding medical requirements. While some health conditions may be waived, some cannot. The medical clearance process evaluates your health status to ensure you are medically fit to do your job in a contingency environment. Be open and honest about health your history/medical issues. Don’t run the risk of being sent home or medically evacuated from theater.
All medical, dental, vision, and hearing examinations, lab tests/results and immunizations must occur and be completed within 90 calendar days of the deployment report date. Imperative to take action to schedule appointments if you are within the 90 day window. This is the most time intensive requirement of pre-deployment. Without being medically cleared you cannot deploy.
MEDICAL --ENGAGE EARLY
Please engage with the medical processing as early as possible. The Camp Atterbury Joint Maneuver Training Center (CAJMTC) is the only office that can medically clear you if you go through Camp Atterbury for training. It is your responsibility to send all medical documents to CAJMTC as soon as possible. Do not wait to the due date to submit documentation. CAJMTC may require additional labs, tests or identify waivers needed. It is your responsibility to confirm receipt with Camp Atterbury Medical Team.

DoD civilian Deployers on a Temporary Change in Duty Station or Temporary Duty assignment in support of the DoD-EC Program, and who develop physical or psychological illnesses or injuries while forward deployed in support of U.S. military forces engaged in hostilities are eligible for health care treatment and services, including routine care, at a MTF at the same level and scope provided to military personnel. Care for DoD civilians is provided at no cost to the Deployer.
WAIVERS
Deployers who have a condition, as described in Central Command (CENTCOM) Modification 13, Tab A as a “condition generally precluding deployment” must have a complete waiver, signed by the appropriate service component Surgeon’s Office.
Local MTF or CAJMTC assists with waiver submissions, ensure you coordinate with all involved until you are in receipt of a signed waiver if approved. Hand-carry a copy with you to Camp Atterbury.
If a condition is found at CA Medical Processing that the deployer was unaware of, and it is a waiver-able condition listed in “MOD 13-Tab A,” CA Medical Staff will submit for that specific waiver on behalf of the deployer and his or her organization.

4. Receive formal confirmation for your Service Component’s PRMS Manager or Security
Manager that step two is complete. This completes the ISOPREP process.
General tips for ISOPREP
If you have travelled OCONUS as a DoD Deployer (MIL or CIV or CTR), you may already have created an ISOPREP record in PRMS. Consult your organization’s PRMS Manager or Deployment Manager for assistance for updating and/or reviewing your previous ISOPREP record.
If you need help or do not know who your PRMS Manager is, contact the PRMS OTS Management Office, PRMSMail@jricp.osis.gov , commercial 586-239-3701, DSN 312-273-3701, for assistance. You will need your current organization and chain of command information so they can help identify a PRMS contact for you.

Revision 4.2 Page-16
VII. DEPLOYMENT ORDERS
Orders will need to be issued for Deployers participating in the DoD Expeditionary Civilian program under USCENTCOM. Either DD Form 1610, Request and Authorization for TDY Travel of DoD Personnel or CED orders.
Deployment orders are usually generated no earlier than 30 days from departure. Depending on your Service Component processing, you may either:
create a travel authorization in the Defense Travel System (DTS), or administrative staff will create the travel authorization for you in DTS, or you will create a manual version of the DD 1610 outside of DTS, or Contingency, Exercise & Deployment (CED) orders will be issued to you by your
Deployment Manager.
Consult your service component DoD-EC representative for assistance with deployment orders.
Important Things to Know
1. Complete Minimal DTS training. See DTS training below.
2. Follow your Service Component instructions for generating travel authorizations and orders; consult your Finance or Resource Budget Office for assistance and guidance.
3. LOCAL FUND CITE must be used – there is NO CENTRAL FUNDING. The local Finance or Resource Budget Office will provide the necessary information to capture the OCO (formerly GWOT) costs. Note: Since you are deploying as a DoD civilian Deployer, your home station/command is responsible for 100% of your salary and incremental expenses during your deployment.
4. Travel orders for TDY assignments in support of a contingency operation are the exception to the rule and can be processed for a period of more than 180 days.
5. Either the Deployer or the designated person at the parent command will prepare the TDY orders following the guidance in the pre-deployment package.
6. Depending upon how DTS was loaded at your organization, some Deployers encounter problems when utilizing DTS for their long term travel/beyond 180 days.
7. Manual orders will need to be prepared if unable to process one set of orders in DTS for any reason, i.e., long term, crossing fiscal years.
8. Travel orders should cover the ENTIRE period of the deployment, and:
a. Begin with the date Deployer travels to Camp Atterbury in Edinburgh, Indiana.
b. Cover a 390 day period (for a 12 month deployment) or a 300 day period (for a 9 month deployment), or 210 day period (for a 6 month deployment).
c. Block 11, Itinerary, reflect, "From: (specify Residence), To: Camp Atterbury, IN, To: BWI, To: Kuwait, To: (Specify location and country in theater), and Redeploy to BWI, Camp Atterbury IN, then Home Station." Insert into Remarks block to show full route.
9. When returning from deployment, Deployers will return through Camp Atterbury IN for post-deployment processing. POCs:

10. Lodging and meals provided at Camp Atterbury and in theater.
11. All orders, DD 1610 or CED, MUST state Variations Authorized.
12. A copy of the CED or DD 1610 orders MUST be provided to the servicing Human
Resources/Civilian Personnel Office as soon as they are completed.
13. Both CED orders and DD 1610 orders can be amended if/when corrections are necessary.

Follow your Service Component instructions for generating travel authorizations and orders; consult your Finance or Resource Budget Office for assistance and guidance.
Once the deployment orders are completed, provide copies to:
Servicing HR/Civilian Personnel Office Supervisor US CENTCOM DoD-EC Family Member or other trusted agent
Customer Identification Codes (CIC Code)
At a minimum, CENTCOM DoD-EC has this guidance on the use of CIC numbers on deployment orders: The CIC code is included in the fund citation; there are 15 digits of the fund citation made up the CIC. The CIC # is not always required.
For future deployments, recommend the order issuing authority, regardless of service component, contact AMC/FMFAB at Scott AFB in order to correctly put the deploying person's CIC code on their orders prior to the deployment flight. The people in the AMC/FMFAB office work with ALL services on CIC codes.
If there are still concerns about the CIC, AMC POCs Mr. Steven “Tom” Mifflin DSN 779-2366 and Ms. Lisa Below DSN 779-2315 can help determine whether it's needed for CENTCOM DoD-EC orders. They are the final authority as they are the ones who bill for the MILAIR rotator, which is why the CIC was on the orders initially.
If the order issuing authority would prefer to figure out the CIC code without assistance from AMC/FMFAB, please have them use the applicable reference from the list below:
DFAS-Indianapolis Manual 37-100-04, Financial Management;
The Army Structure Fiscal Year 2004, Chapter 1, General Information, Section 16;

The standard program is a two-week curriculum consisting of classroom courses and field exercises. Phase one schedule is conducted at the Camp Atterbury Joint Maneuver Training Center (CAJMTC) in Edinburgh, Indiana. Phase two training is conducted at the Muscatatuck Urban Training Complex (MUTC) in Butlerville, Indiana.
Phase One – Camp Atterbury Material covered in the training conducted at Camp Atterbury includes final pre-deployment processing, final medical processing, validation of on-line training, weapons training, information on mobilization. Phase one (approximately 4-5 days) training is essential for providing deployers with an enterprise-wide knowledge base and cannot be waived.

Phase Two – Muscatatuck Training is conducted at Forward Operating Base (FOB) Panther at MUTC (Muscatatuck Urban Training Center). Students will spend several days at the FOB, integrated with U.S. military personnel in the same manner experienced in theater. Conditions have been established to mimic the type of austere living conditions found in theater, including sleeping in open bay trailers, use of field showers and toilets, and subsistence at a military dining facility. Training consists of classroom instruction and practical application exercises, concluding with a two-day immersive field event. The two-day immersive exercise is physically demanding and requires participants to be equipped in military protective gear (Kevlar vest and helmet).
Throughout the phase students will be presented with a series of role-play exercises duplicating the various scenarios in which they may find themselves during their deployment, including negotiating sensitive situations and engaging host-country partners to build collaborative relationships. Students will also be involved in mock ambushes and IED strikes, which will be filmed for debriefing and review.
Muscatatuck Training Environment The Forward Operating Base (FOB) Panther at MUTC (Muscatatuck Urban Training Center) does not contain the type of amenities found at CA (ATM, Post Exchange, etc.) and deployers should prepare themselves for this environment and ensure that they bring appropriate clothing and http://www.atterburymuscatatuck.in.ng.mil/ http://www.atterburymuscatatuck.in.ng.mil/ http://www.atterburymuscatatuck.in.ng.mil/
