The Army has set up remote facilities on Fort Bragg, North Carolina, for paratroopers returning from overseas<\/a> and entering quarantine during the ongoing coronavirus pandemic<\/a>, division officials said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Paratroopers from the 82nd Airborne Division <\/a>have been returning from deployments to Kuwait and Afghanistan and entering quarantine since the weekend. So far, they\u2019ve been put up in barracks on post, with the exception of the first night, when some paratroopers returned and had to shelter in a PAX shed near the airfield typically used before parachute jumps.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The more remote facilities include \u201cGyms In a Box,” internet services, mobile laundry units, catered food services through a contractor, mobile restrooms and showers. Catered food includes two hot meals and a cold one, which would be a sandwich meal for lunch.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cUSO is really chipping in and helping out with hygiene kits,\u201d said division spokesman Lt. Col. Mike Burns. \u201cThere\u2019s a theater screen out here. We\u2019re trying to do everything we can to make it comfortable.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Army is taking the quarantine seriously. Whether they\u2019re quarantining on- or off-post, returning paratroopers signed memos acknowledging that violating the 14-day quarantine could result in punishments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In response to Centers for Disease Control and Prevention quarantine protocol, the 82nd Airborne Division prepared remote facilities on Fort Bragg, NC for Paratroopers returning from overseas. The Paratroopers of 3rd Brigade Combat Team, 82nd Airborne Division returning from the Central Command Area responsibility must be placed on a mandatory 14 day quarantine. The facilities include Gyms In a Box (GiBs), internet services, mobile laundry units, catered food services, mobile restrooms and showers. The Paratroopers will continue regular activities after 14 days without any flu-like symptoms.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The temporary quarters are on a training site resembling forward operating bases soldiers encounter downrange, called FOB Patriot. The location has yet to be filled, as not all paratroopers have returned, but it has the capacity to house 600 people.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cIt\u2019s not something we wanted to do; it\u2019s something we had to do to prevent the spread of the virus,\u201d Burns said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe are quarantining our soldiers by chalk,\u201d he added. \u201cAcross the chalk, it may be people from four different battalions, but all those guys start that 14 days together.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Like government entities across America, Fort Bragg leadership had only a few days forewarning before they had to prepare for the quarantine policy. Officials on post have been working non-stop, according to Burns.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe started churning as soon as we got the word that we\u2019re going to have to quarantine them,\u201d Burns said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The quarantine applies to all soldiers coming back from deployment, but mostly those caught in the situation come from the 82nd\u2019s 3rd Brigade Combat Team, which is returning from a deployment to Afghanistan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Paratroopers will be able to continue regular activities after 14 days without any flu-like symptoms.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cIf they start to show symptoms, they\u2019ll be evaluated medically and they\u2019ll be isolated in a separate place,\u201d Burns added. So far, Fort Bragg has only reported one coronavirus case. That involved an Army civilian employee.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The quarantine situation applies to all returning soldiers who normally live in the barracks on base, or those who do not have a residence because they terminated a lease prior to departing and are unmarried. Married troops can quarantine with their families in their homes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cIf they don\u2019t have a place to stay and a support system, they obviously can\u2019t quarantine by themselves,\u201d Burns said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

While the set-up was ad-hoc, the division is planning to use quarantine facilities through the summer at this time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The 82nd has soldiers from 1st Brigade Combat Team who deployed to Kuwait as part of a contingency response force during a spike in tensions with Iran in early January. Those paratroopers will continue trickling back for a few more months.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Even as quarantine policies are put in place, Burns noted that the division is still training. Some paratroopers conducted a parachute jump on Wednesday and members of 2nd Brigade Combat Team are currently in the field.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In accordance with Department of the Army Guidance, Soldiers redeploying from OCONUS locations are required to enter a 14-day mandatory quarantine in one of several locations on Fort Bragg, NC. The 82nd Airborne Division established remote facilities on FOB Patriot to provide accommodations for up to 600 Soldiers . The facilities include Gyms In a Box (GiBs), internet services, mobile laundry units, catered food services, mobile restrooms and showers.\rThe Soldiers quarantined will continue regular activities after 14 days without any flu-like symptoms.

The quarantine policy reflects larger Army guidance that troops returning from any country designated by the Center for Disease Control as Level II or higher, like Germany and Italy, will be subject to quarantine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cIt\u2019s going to be a challenge for them, but I\u2019ve seen first hand how resilient our Paratroopers are,\u201d division commander Maj. Gen. James Mingus said in a statement over the weekend. \u201cAs soldiers, we understand better than most that we have a responsibility to the community to follow the guidelines provided by the CDC.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Burns said division leadership is aware that returning paratroopers had their post-deployment leave plans ended by the quarantine policy. He added that there are plans to get paratroopers leave as the situation adjusts over time.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
