Can you tell me how MP Checkpoints would be set up? I had gone with this for them...

M998A1 HMMWV utility cargo truck w/a M105A2 1½-ton high mobility cargo trailer
SGT <>, Team Leader:
SPC <>, Combat Field Medic:
SPC <>, Radio-Telephone Operator:
SPC <>, Designated Marksman:
PFC <>, HMMWV Gunner:
PFC <>, HMMWV Driver:
SPC <name>, MP Dog Handler:
PVT <name>, Working Dog:

The Gunner and Driver positions could be rotated so the soldiers could get in out of the weather... the HMMWV would be up-armored model. The Designated Marksman position would be set up to preform overwatch. The RTO and CFM would be there for support during medical emergencies and keep them in contact with support. I'm not sure if the Working Dog would be a bomb sniffer or other kind of working dog.

I also thought of a working dog with the mortuary affairs teams... but couldn't find info on the mortuary teams that showed them using them. I found how they are organized, and didn't see them being used with the search and recovery teams.


I've been working on notes for the Mail Services... pony express type using horses and dirtbikes (or bikes with sidecars so they can carry packages like in WW2).

Oh crap. Well you don't need much do you.
