PREPARE REPORTS For all practical purposes, you probably will not be responsible for the actual reports that will be sent to your command's higher reporting authority. But keep in mind, you probably will be tasked with providing your superiors with the preliminary data. For you to be effective in this task, you should be familiar with the reporting procedures outlined in OPNAVINST. 5090.1 series.

ENGINEERING OPERATIONAL CASUALTY CONTROL (EOCC) MANUALS

The casualty control portion of the EOSS contains information relevant to the recognition of casualty symptoms and their probable causes and effects. This is also a source for information on actions to be taken to prevent a casualty. The EOCC manuals specify procedures for controlling single-and multiple-source casualties.

Casualty prevention must be the concern of everyone on board. Proper training of all personnel must provide adequate knowledge and experience in effective casualty prevention. The EOCC manuals have efficient, technically correct casualty control and prevention procedures. These procedures relate to all phases of an engineering plant. The EOCC documents possible casualties that may be caused by human error, material failure, or battle damage. The EOCC manuals describe proven methods for the control of a casualty. They also provide information for prevention of further
