4–10. Individual Replacement Procedures
a. An individual replacement is as a Soldier identified to fill a valid vacancy. This can be a first
time fill PUSH, or replace another Soldier who was already in theater but had to depart.
b. Individual Replacement Procedures. The first source for replacements is Soldiers assigned
to the rear detachment. The forward element coordinates directly with rear detachment to
identify Soldiers available for deployment. The rear detachment includes the home installation,
which means the installation (Directorate of Human Resources) should reassign Soldiers from
across the installation if necessary to provide an appropriate replacement.
c. Donor installations will:
1) Issue clothing, individual equipment, weapons, and chemical/biological equipment
IAW the COCOM's guidance.
2) Will also conduct Soldier Readiness Processing (SRP) and validate replacement for
deployment. Staff agencies and organizations (such as HQDA, HRC, etc.) without OCIE and
weapons, will coordinate with HRC Deputy Chief of Operations (DCSOPS) to deploy the
replacement Soldier through the CRC.
3) Will coordinate deployment to theater through FORSCOM, movement on channel
flights, or movement on CRC flights. Movements on CRC flights require coordination through
HRC DCSOPS.
d. If units cannot identify replacements, the forward element will submit replacement
requirements to the Theater Sustainment Command (TSC). The TSC will then attempt to fill the
requirement through reassignment regardless of component. If requirements are not met
through reassignment actions, the TSC submits requirements to HRC for fill through the
Deliberate Pull Program.
HRC's process: HRC will determine the best source from across the Army to meet the
requirements and will task accordingly. The same timelines apply for responding to AC and RC
replacements.
4–11. Redeployment and Demobilization of RC Individual Replacements
Redeployment timeframe: Replacement Soldiers will redeploy with the unit to which they are
assigned as a replacement regardless of time remaining on their mobilization orders unless the
replacement Soldier has received orders to remain in theater to fill another valid requirement.
He may request orders by submitting a CO-ADOS packet.
CRC/MOBSTA coordination: In cases where Soldiers mobilized through a CRC or a different
mobilization station, the demobilization station will coordinate with the CRC/mobilization station
to transfer individual mobilization files and to reconcile OCIE accounts. When CONUS based
replacements are assigned to OCONUS based units, the Soldiers will redeploy to the
appropriate CONUS-based CRC/mobilization station for demobilization processing.
4–12. AMEDD Replacements
AC 180-Day PROFIS/IA Rotation Policy: Medical, Dental and Nursing Specialties serving in
PROFIS assignments with echelon above brigade (EAB) units, Level 3 Medical Treatment
Facilities (MTF) and Forward Surgical Teams (FST) will be replaced at/around 180-days.
The policy pertains to AC personnel and does not change the Army Medical Department RC 90-
day Rotation Policy dated 2 October 2003. Responsible credentialing agencies will ensure
