Comments: Many localities received MASH units in whole or in part. One of my jurisdictions contacted me because of a sign stating contact your local health department for questions concerning this MASH Unit.

I have some knowledge of the different types of medical equipment/supplies included with the unit, and have some concerns about the lay public trying to reuse materials and/or improper disposal of materials.

I am waiting for a response from the Army. Any comments/guidence would be appreciated.
