107.4 What is the Combat Service Support Element (CSSE) of a Marine Expeditionary Unit (Special Operations Capable) (MEU (SOC)) • The MSSG/CLB is the CSSE for the MEU. The MLG provides MSSG/CLBs with the necessary personnel and equipment to accomplish their missions. The MSSG/CLBs provide the MEU with the following CSS: • Supply support. • Maintenance support. • Transportation support. • Deliberate engineering support. • Medical and dental services. • Automated information processing support. • Utilities support. • Landing support (port and airfield support operations). • Disbursing services. • Legal services. • Postal services. • Accompanying supplies (classes I, II, III[B], IV, V[W], and IX) necessary to support the MEU for 15 days
107.5 What is the CSSE of a Marine Expeditionary Brigade (MEB)? • The BSSG/CLR is the CSSE for the MEB. The MLG provides BSSG/CLRs with the necessary personnel and equipment to accomplish their missions. The BSSG/CLRs provide the MEB with the following CSS: • Supply support. • Maintenance support. • Transportation support. • Deliberate engineering support. • Medical and dental services. • Automated information processing support. • Utilities support. • Landing support (port and airfield support operations). • Disbursing services. • Legal services. • Postal services. • Accompanying supplies (classes I, II, III[B], IV, V[W], and IX) necessary to support the MEB for 30 days
107.6 What is the CSSE of a Marine Expeditionary Force (MEF)? The MLG Accompanying supplies (classes I, II, III[B], IV, V[W], and IX) necessary to support the MEB for 60 days
107.7 State the six functional areas of Combat Service Support (CSS). • Supply • Maintenance • Transportation • General engineering • Health services • Services.
107.8 Define War Reserve Material (WRM). • WRM is defined as mission-essential principal end items, secondary items, and munitions required to attain operational objectives in the scenarios authorized for sustainability planning and other stockage objectives approved for programming in the Defense Planning Guidance. • WRM inventories are acquired during peacetime. • Inventories are flexible, and they provide an expansion capability that can respond to spectrum regional contingencies, while minimizing investment in resources. The MEF can deploy with sufficient equipment and supplies to support up to 60 days of contingency operations. This 60-day level of support provides reasonable assurance that the employed force can be self-sustaining until resupply channels are established, regardless of the area of operations or its logistics infrastructure.

The difference between the MK23 and MK25 is that the MK25 has a 20,000 pound capacity self-recovery winch. The MK23/MK25 is a 7-ton, 6x6 designed for use on all types of roads, highways and cross-country terrain. It is capable of traversing a 60 percent gradient, a 30 percent side slope up to 15 mph and a 40 percent side slope at 5 mph. It is capable of fording 60 inches of water and has an on-road cruising range of 300 miles. The MK23/MK25 variants are capable of being transported by highway, rail, sea and air.

The mobility of the forklift, with and without payload, is intended to cover working areas where high floatation and traction characteristics are required.
107.11 Explain the CSS capability of the Maritime Preposition Force (MPF). • A critical goal in MPF logistics planning is to use existing logistics systems and infrastructure as much as possible. Use of existing host nation support and inter-Service support by all elements of the MPF is encouraged during the MPF operation. Planning must focus on providing continuous support for the duration of the MPF operation and subsequent MAGTF operations. Plans to support an MPF operation must be consistent with plans to support subsequent operations. • Facilities for off-loading include beaches, ports, arrival and tactical airfields, and assembly areas. These facilities must be in close proximity to each other, they must be able to accommodate MPS and strategic-lift aircraft, they must have sufficient capacity to handle the MPF off-load, and they must have all-weather capability. An MPF operation is a logistical operation because it involves deployment and preparation of the MAGTF for employment. The MAGTF mission is the focus of the MPF operation and logistics support. MCWP
