TRAINING
4.1. Philosophy. Prime BEEF forces train to meet a full range of tasks expected in a contingency
environment. These tasks are contained in each Career Field Education and Training Plan (CFETP)
and in this instruction. This instruction and the Wartime Task Standard, located on the AFCEC
Expeditionary Engineering SharePoint® site at https://usaf.dps.mil/sites/13072/default.aspx, are
the source documents for Prime BEEF training. All Prime BEEF training requirements are vetted
and approved through the civil engineer governance structure.
4.2. Applicability. Military personnel assigned to Regular Air Force (RegAF) and Air Reserve
Component (ARC) civil engineer units will train to standards identified in paragraph 4.3. (T-2)
Headquarters, major commands, primary subordinate units, direct reporting units, staff
augmentation teams, and individual mobilization augmentee civil engineers, receive, at a
minimum, the ancillary training listed in DAFI 36-2670, Total Force Development. Ancillary
training is conducted as required prior to deploying. Civilian personnel assigned to deployable
UTCs, and civilians identified to provide wartime home station support will meet training
requirements as defined by parent MAJCOMs and DRUs. (T-2)
4.3. Requirements. Military personnel assigned to civil engineer units will complete
foundational training, skills and knowledge, and Silver Flag mission qualification per training
tables in Attachment 2, Attachment 3, Attachment 4, and Attachment 6. (T-1) All training
identified in these attachments are considered mission essential and are resource and capability
reportable. See AFI 10-201 for more information. Schedule contingency training not conducted at
home station through AFCEC/CXX. MAJCOMs and DRUs coordinate these training requirements
during official data calls from AFCEC/CXX.
4.3.1. Foundational training. Provides the foundation to building ready engineers and is
identified in Attachment 2, Prime BEEF Training Requirements. Foundational training
includes knowledge-based and hands-on training. Units should make every effort to
incorporate realism into their respective foundational training programs. Field gear (to include
primary weapons or training weapons) should be used during hands-on training such as convoy
operations, defensive fighting positions, etc. When available, incorporate chemical, biological,
radiological, and nuclear (CBRN) individual equipment during training events. Consider
wearing field gear and/or CBRN individual equipment during normal daily activities to
acclimate Airmen to conducting tasks. Institutional forces will accomplish foundational
training upon deployment notification. (T-2)
4.3.1.1. MAJCOMs and DRUs may direct additional command-required training to
maintain optimum readiness.
4.3.1.2. Foundational training schedule. RegAF units will conduct monthly foundational
training in accordance with the annual standardized schedule located on their respective
SharePoint® sites (Fire and Emergency Services, Explosive Ordnance Disposal, and
Emergency Management, and Prime BEEF). (T-3) Adhering to this standardized schedule
ensures all mandatory training is accomplished as directed in Attachment 2 and prior to
deployment cycle.
AFI10-210 25 OCTOBER 2023 17
4.3.2. Skills and knowledge training requirements. The training focuses on bare base beddown
and sustainment operations using basic expeditionary airfield resource (BEAR) assets in a
realistic environment. Engineers will perform individual contingency tasks per Attachment 4.
(T-1) Where possible, combat skills are added to training events to ensure realism and help
fortify warrior ethos.
4.3.2.1. Wartime or contingency environments often involve the use of specialized and
unique mission-essential equipment not used in day-to-day civil engineer operations. Due
to cost and complexity, mission-essential contingency equipment and trainer expertise are
not commonly found at continental United States installations. However, inadequate
training on these key equipment items can negatively impact mission capabilities required
for contingency operations success. Allowance Standard 429LOOJ provides authorizations
for training assets that Prime BEEF units can procure to support home station training, field
training, and local base exercises. Field training sets consist of items such as tents,
generators, various BEAR electrical equipment items, and environmental control units.
Prime BEEF units should contact their MAJCOM functional area managers for further
information on this allowance standard.
4.3.2.2. Mission essential equipment training (MEET). Airmen will train to proficiency
levels prescribed in the approved curriculum in accordance with the Expeditionary
Training Working Group-approved objectives. (T-1) Where local training capabilities do
not exist, specialty training sites listed in Attachment 5 can be utilized. The skills and
knowledge training table in Attachment 4 identifies the minimum number of trained
personnel per UTC. Units should make every effort to train and certify additional personnel
who could be tasked as alternates to fill a critical position. Airmen holding a 3-skill level
may complete training, however, those 3-levels are not included in resource readiness
reportable calculations.
4.3.2.3. Mission essential equipment training instructor certification requirements. To
ensure mission essential equipment instructors are competent and proficient in delivering
effective training, the following certification tasks must be completed, prior to instructing
their first mission essential equipment course.
4.3.2.3.1. MEET instructor certification. Candidate instructors must be current in
AFSC MEET course(s). (T-1) Must shadow a certified instructor for a minimum of two
courses with one course completed at any of the following regional training site (RTS)
locations: 119th, 145th, 163rd, or 201st. (T-1) See Table A5.1 for site information.
AFCEC/CXX will provide funding for travel to these locations. (T-1)
4.3.2.3.2. Certified instructor will evaluate candidate instructors. (T-1) The evaluation
will be recorded on an AETC Form 281, Instructor Evaluation Checklist. (T-1)
4.3.2.3.2.1. The evaluator provides recommendation to the candidates NCOIC,
senior enlisted leader, and commander, along with recommendations for correction
or reevaluation, if needed. (T-1)
4.3.2.3.2.2. New instructors will not individually instruct a MEET course until a

AFCEC/COF after instructor re-certification for records keeping. (T-1)
4.3.3. Rapid damage repair (RDR) training. The RDR process is critical to the recovery of an
airfield. Due to the limited number of installations that are equipped and able to train the RDR
process, specialty training sites (Attachment 5) have been established to provide training
opportunities to the total force.
4.3.3.1. The required AFSCs that will attend RDR training are 3E0XX-3E6XX. (T-2) At
a minimum, units will ensure 25% of each identified AFSC with a 5 or 7 skill level attend
RDR Training. (T-2) Training is valid for 24 months (RegAF) and 48 months (ARC).
4.3.3.2. Rapid damage assessment (RDA). For units postured with the 4F9DA, Damage
Assessment UTC, a rapid airfield damage assessment system (RADAS) training event
must be conducted every ninety (90) days with the entire RADAS team (addition of two
Geospatial Expeditionary Planning Tool (GeoExPT) operators). (T-1) This event may be
combined with other training events. The training event must be a minimum of thirty (30)
minutes, have at least two (2) takeoff and landings, and exercise initial data collection and
mission re-taskings. (T-2) Furthermore, units must exercise Airfield Damage Assesment
Teams (ADATs) on operational airfield pavements every ninety (90) days. (T-2) Collected
data must be processed thru GeoExPT. (T-2) Recommend this be conducted in conjuction
with the RADAS exercise.
4.3.4. Silver Flag mission qualification. Engineers demonstrate performance of critical
contingency tasks that support their assigned Air Force, force generation force element. The
Silver Flag mission qualification validates a unit’s ability to complete bare base beddown,
sustainment, and recovery operations using basic expeditionary airfield resource assets in a
realistic environment. Units ensure force elements complete a Silver Flag mission
qualification, as a UTC, in their “Prepare” or “Certify” phase. The Silver Flag mission
qualification will be conducted at an AFCEC approved contingency training location. (T-1)
4.3.5. Government vehicle and heavy equipment operations training. All military Prime BEEF
personnel who operate vehicles and heavy equipment will have a valid state motor vehicle
license in accordance with AFI 24-301, Ground Transportation, and have a government
driver’s license for vehicles. (T-1) For equipment not requiring licensing, documentation
verifying they may operate the equipment will be identified in training records and tracked in
ARIS. (T-1) Attachment 3 identifies vehicle and equipment requirements, per AFSC.

accessible via the Air Force Portal. AFSCs (3E0X2, 3E1X1, 3E3X1 and 3E5X1) should
maintain a shop level account with each member of the shop added to the account. Secondly,
each AFSC should have a baseline number of T.O.s added to the account that captures
equipment experienced in a contingency environment. Accounts access ensure these AFSCs
have current information necessary to maintain contingency equipment and enable worldwide
missions. The CE Dash
(https://usaf.dps.mil/teams/CEDASH/scripts/homepage/home.aspx) provides the list of
minimum T.O.s maintained and updated by appropriate Force Development Manager.
4.4. Documentation. The Prime BEEF Manager will document training administered through
the Prime BEEF program following guidelines established in the Records Disposition Schedule
and will document training utilizing ARIS. (T-2) Use course sessions and sign-in rosters to show
completed training requirements. (T-2) Upload signed rosters for each course session into ARIS
as the source documents for training attendance validation. (T-2) Commander endorsed
memorandums can be used in lieu of a signed course roster. Civil engineer commanders may give
credit for applicable foundational training to individuals who performed and documented tasks.
For deployment related training use the return date from the contingency or exercise deployment
as the training completion date.
4.5. Task Qualification Training (TQT). Referenced in AFI 10-2501, Emergency Management
Program, Career Field Managers identify wartime tasks to be performed and task-certified while
wearing CBRN individual protective equipment. Wartime training tasks are considered TQT and
are identified in civil engineer Air Force specialty codes, career field education and training plans.
Unit Commanders follow guidance of AFI 10-201 to document the status of TQT using the
chemical, biological, defense readiness training report. (T-0) TQT should be completed in Mission
Oriented Protective Posture Level 4, unless otherwise stated in each civil engineer AFSC career
field education and training plans (CFETP) or identified by Career Field Managers.
4.6. General Contingency Responsibilities.
4.6.1. Upon assignment to the unit, civil engineer commanders ensure all military personnel
receive Prime BEEF orientation training as identified in Table A2.1. This training should
emphasize an individual’s role and how they fit into the program. It includes an overview of
civil engineer doctrine and explains the organization, training, equipment, operating concepts,

Chapter 5
5.1. Mobility Equipment and Supplies. Civil engineer commanders will equip their Prime
BEEF unit type codes (UTCs) per the respective equipment and supplies listing (ESL). (T-2)
5.1.1. Requirements, documents, and databases. The civil engineer community uses three
documents/databases to manage UTC equipment and supplies: the ESL, allowance standards,
and the Logistics Force Packaging System. These documents and databases define equipment
and supply requirements, authorization for accountable equipment items, and information for
building the logistics details.
5.1.1.1. The ESL source document, generated from Automated Readiness Information
Systems (ARIS), is the authoritative source document for all civil engineer UTC equipment
requirements. ARIS is also the only source for details on how to report equipment items in
the Air Force Input Tool for Resource Readiness. This document enables the civil engineer
community to standardize requirements between UTCs and is the primary document used
to conduct annual inventories and forecast funding for those UTCs. Most continental
United States UTCs are stored centrally at Grissom Air Reserve Base, IN. EOD UTCs are
stored at each installation that are tasked with a specific deployment mission. Outside the
continental United States units store and manage their UTCs locally. Units outside the
continental United States and units with non-centralized UTCs will conduct inventories
and inspections annually or after deployments/exercises, whichever is soonest, comparing
the on-hand assets to the ESL and updating the results in ARIS. (T-2) When shortages in
wartime equipment are noted, units should take immediate action and budget to acquire
missing items or conduct commercial market analysis to determine suitable substitutes.
AFCEC/CXX reviews the ESL every three years and submits for approval through the civil
engineer governance structure. (T-2) Once approved, AFCEC/CXX updates ARIS to
reflect changes.
5.1.1.2. Allowance standards provide authorizations for units to acquire accountable
equipment items listed in the ESL.
5.1.1.3. The Logistics Force Packaging System contains the pallet load and packing list
information for each UTC. AFCEC/CXX will ensure the Logistics Force Packaging
System details include all items as listed in the latest approved ESL. (T-1)
5.1.2. Personal clothing. All regular Air Force civil engineers will maintain a personal bag
with items listed in Table 5.1. (T-3) All civilian members assigned to a deployable UTC should
be encouraged to maintain an equivalent personal bag. Until activation, Air Reserve
Component personnel require only those uniform items prescribed in AFI 36-3012, Military
Entitlements.
5.1.2.1. Commanders will forecast funding, initially issue, and replace the mandatory
items in Table 5.1 as required. (T-3)
5.1.2.2. Each Airman’s personal bag contains both mandatory and personal items.
Mandatory items are authorized, and unit funded or initial issue items. Personal items,
except for initial issue are highly recommended and the responsibility of each Airman to
procure.
24 AFI10-210 25 OCTOBER 2023
5.1.3. Mobility bags. Each person assigned to a standard deployable UTC is allocated one
general purpose bag (A-bag), one extreme cold weather bag (B-bag), and one CBRN individual
protective equipment bag (C-1) according to sustainment groups listed in AFI 23-101, Materiel
Management Policy. The ESL lists mobility bag requirements. The A- and B-bag items are
listed in AFI 23-101, and C-bag requirements are listed in AFI 10-2501, Emergency
Management Program. Logistics Readiness Squadron will maintain the standard bags. (T-3)
Exceptions: Each person assigned to an EOD UTC is issued and maintains their mobility bags
except for the C-1 bag listed in the ESL. (T-1) Units provide the EOD individual equipment
and unit retention items through the Battlefield Airmen Rapid Refresh & Replenishment
System. (T-1) Mobility bags are only required for the maximum simultaneously deployable
capability of the unit.
5.1.4. Special protective clothing. Units will maintain properly sized protective clothing for
each Pest Management (3E4X3) and assigned Fire and Emergency Services (3E7X1)
technician. (T-1) Units will also maintain arc flash gear, cotton Operational Camouflage
Pattern and fire-resistant undergarments (if cotton uniforms are not available, 100 percent
cotton coveralls suffice) for each Electrician (3E0X1), Power Production (3E0X2), Heating,
Ventilation, Air Conditioning & Refrigeration (3E1X1) and Water and Fuel Systems
Maintenance (3E4X1) technician assigned to a deployable Prime BEEF UTC. (T-1)
Individuals holding these AFSCs who are assigned to UTC will deploy with properly sized
special protective clothing and undergarments as listed in the ESL. (T-1) Firefighter operations
and EOD personnel will wear fire-resistant/flame retardant variants of approved Air Force
uniforms as the daily uniform due to the inherently dangerous and quick response nature of
their duties. (T-3) EOD Flights will issue all assigned EOD personnel the required items in the
Battlefield Airmen Rapid Refresh and Replenishment System to include cold and inclement
weather protective clothing items. (T-3)
5.1.5. Team and tool kits. Prime BEEF UTCs will include the full complement of team and
consolidated tool kits in accordance with the ESL. (T-1) Units can contact local Logistics
Readiness Squadron to obtain a copy of the Allowance Standards 429, 456, 459, 490, 538, and
660 which contain equipment authorizations for Prime BEEF UTCs.
5.1.6. Weapons and ammunition. The primary duty weapon for civil engineers is the M-4.
Each position of a 4FP* UTC requires one M-4 rifle and 210 rounds of ammunition unless
otherwise stated by mission requirements. (T-1) Each rifle requires seven 30-round magazines.
(T-1) Headquarters staff, Civil Engineer Staff Augmentation Teams, Civil Engineer
Maintenance, Inspection, and Repair Teams, and Airfield Pavements Evaluation Team UTCs
may optionally equip using pistols only; however, this does not relieve these units of having
the M-4s. All EOD funded military authorizations, postured in either standard or non-standard
UTCs requires their primary duty weapon and pistol. (T-1) Emergency Management funded
military authorizations, postured in either standard or non-standard UTCs require their primary
duty weapon and pistol. (T-1)
5.1.6.1. Civil engineer commanders may authorize pistols and accompanying ammunition
for cargo couriers, armory guards, or other such duties where the M-4 would hinder
operations.
26 AFI10-210 25 OCTOBER 2023
5.1.6.2. Table 5.2 lists the maximum number of rifles and pistols authorized per UTC.
For weapons and demolition munitions authorizations, refer to Allowance Standard 538

forecast annually for mobility ground ammunition (5.56 mm, 9 mm, 2¾ bird shot, and 2¾
buck shot) for all Prime BEEF requirements (excluding EOD). (T-1) Prime BEEF
managers must contact the local Munitions Accountable Supply Officer for creating,
forecasting, and maintaining mobility ground ammunition requirements. (T-1)
5.1.6.4. If weapons are stored and/or maintained on a civil engineer equipment account,
Prime BEEF managers will be responsible for maintaining AF Technical Order Form 105,
Inspection Maintenance Firing Data for Ground Weapons, and quarterly and annual
inspections. (T-1) If weapons are centrally stored and maintained on a single account
managed by the Logistics Readiness Squadron, then documenting AF Technical Order
Form 105 with quarterly and annual inspections is conducted by the local Logistics
Readiness Squadron as directed in AFI 36-2654, Combat Arms Program. (T-1)
Note 2: Explosive Ordnance Disposal UTC includes additional weapons training requirements.

or in a series of connected stages. Higher authorities normally issue operation plans as directives
based on stated assumptions to allow subordinate officers to prepare supporting plans and orders.
Rapid Airfield Damage Assessment System (RADAS)—A remotely operated system for rapid
damage assessment of airfield damage and UXO after an attack and supplies data necessary to
select minimum airfield operating surface (MOAS).
Rapid Airfield Damage Recovery (RADR)—Encompasses all actions required to rapidly repair
runways and runway support structures to recover operations on an airfield after an attack. RADR
actions include rapid airfield damage assessment, rapid mitigation of explosive hazards, and rapid
repair of damaged surfaces and critical infrastructure.
AFI10-210 25 OCTOBER 2023 43
Rapid Damage Assessment (RDA)—First phase of RADR. Focuses on collecting and analyzing
data to determine the presence of hazards and overall airfield condition to include the number,
location and type of craters, UXO, and other damage characteristics such as camouflets and spalls.
Assessment is accomplished using a combination of manual and automated data collection
systems. Automated systems such as RADAS reduce the UXO threat to Airmen and the assessment
timeline. Data collected during this phase is used to select the most appropriate MAOS to repair.
Rapid Damage Repair (RDR)—Third phase of RADR. Once the explosive hazard threat is
sufficiently mitigated in a repair zone, RDR teams begin repairing craters, camouflets, spalls, and
other damage impeding flying operations on the MAOS. In some scenarios, hundreds of craters
could require repair within acceptable time frames to meet the commander’s Air Tasking Order
(ATO). This requires multiple teams, each using an assembly line process to achieve repair
objectives. Where logistics supply/resupply cannot support the repair in a timely manner, repair
capabilities are prepositioned.
Rapid Explosive Hazard Mitigation (REHM)—Phase two of RADR. Due to high probability
that significant numbers of UXO will be present on access routes, in equipment and material
staging areas, and on the selected minimum airfield operating surface. A family of UXO
assessment and mitigation tools, platforms, and systems provides EOD technicians the capability
to safely and rapidly mitigate the UXO threat. These platforms and systems, operated (or
supervised) by EOD personnel, allow surface and subsurface UXO positive identification,
neutralization, collection, removal, and ultimate disposal on and off the airfield operating surfaces,
access routes, and equipment and material staging areas.
Regular Air Force (RegAF)—The Regular Air Force is comprised of active-duty forces.
Unit Deployment Manager (UDM)—The unit deployment manager is a member assigned to a
unit that manages all deployment readiness and training aspects for all deployable personnel and
equipment within their unit to ensure they are deployment ready. In addition, unit deployment
manager’s support redeployed personnel in the Redeployment Support Process with
commanders/civilian leaders of their units.
Unit Type Code (UTC)—A Joint Chiefs of Staff developed and assigned code, consisting of five
characters that uniquely identify a “type unit.”
