SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 
    Title; Associated Form; and OMB Number: Evaluation of Health Status 
of an Infantry Battalion Following Deployment in Support of Operation 
Iraqi Freedom in 2004-2005; OMB Control Number 0702-XXXX.
    Needs and Uses: The information collection requirement is necessary 
to assess and evaluate the self-reported post-deployment health status 
of selected soldiers who operated in the

[[Page 10842]]

vicinity of Mosul, Iraq in 2004 (e.g., 1-24 Infantry Battalion). The 
data collected from the survey will be used to compare the health of 
current and former U.S. Army personnel after their initial deployment 
in support of Operation Iraqi Freedom (OIF) to that of a subset of 
Millennium Cohort Study participants. This evaluation is being 
conducted at the request of the Army Chief of Staff.
    Affected public: Individuals or Households.
    Annual burden hours: 3,500.
    Number of respondents: 3,500.
    Responses per respondent: 1.
    Annual responses: 3,500.
    Average burden per response: 60 minutes.
    Frequency: One time.
    Respondents are former soldiers who deployed in support of OIF. The 
post-deployment health survey will record self-reported health topics, 
including medical conditions, health behaviors, and exposures that may 
have affected the health of soldiers and veterans. The data from the 
completed survey will be used to compare the health status of members 
of the 1-24 Infantry Battalion (1-24 IN) who deployed to Mosul, Iraq in 
2004-2005 and a similar exposure group consisting of other personnel in 
the 1st Stryker Brigade Combat Team (SBCT) to a comparable set of 
soldiers and veterans participating in a separate and not related 
Millennium Cohort Study. A deployment and environmental health 
surveillance investigation conducted by the APHC in 2014 was unable to 
discern etiologic elements connecting the multitude of health 
conditions and symptoms experienced by a small subset of the 1-24 IN. 
Deployment-associated environmental exposures which may have increased 
the risk of developing these conditions were not identified; however, a 
comprehensive comparative evaluation that includes self-reported data 
and all former members of the 1-24 IN who served in Mosul has not been 
conducted.
