M59: The fielding message for the ETRHS will direct disposition of any unit maintained M59 field ranges. And give priority to deploying units. M2: The fielding message for the ETRHS will direct disposition of any unit maintained burners. And give priority to deploying units. Units not receiving the ETRHS are directed to seek internal redistribution of unit excess PMB Sleds or temp loan of equipment for training evolutions until fielding of the EFK has reached FOC. UNS: Self-powered TRHS (III MEF) is in progress and could be considered “product improvement” vs. a newly fielded TAMCN (?). The UNS should be completed within (30) days. UNS: Self-powered TRHS (III MEF) is in progress and could be considered “product improvement” vs. a newly fielded TAMCN (?). The UNS should be completed within (30) days. JSN: Scalable Kitchen is still in conceptual stages. All progress on the proposal will be updated as it becomes available. Gen I and II Burners: Units were asked to scrub Gen III shortfalls and take every measure to fix internally. No money is POM’ed for new purchases.
