1. FRAGO 21 TO HQDA EXORD 210-20 CORONAVIRUS (COVID-19) TRANSITION FRAMEWORK (CUI), DTG: 291140Z Mar 21. This FRAGO provides updates on testing, ROM, mobilization, and mask requirements, and among many other items, includes the following:  https://www.milsuite.mil/book/docs/DOC-946211

     a. (3.D.13.C.2.) [CHANGE TO READ] On 15 March 2021, the Secretary of Defense published the memorandum, Update to Conditions-Based Approach to Coronavirus Disease 2019 Personnel Movement and Travel Restrictions, Annex III. This memorandum reaffirms the exemption of authorized leave for Department of Defense service members from Coronavirus Disease 2019 personnel movement and travel restrictions. Unit-level commanders and other leave approval authorities pursuant to AR 600-8-10, not below the company, battery, or detachment level, will use the procedures in AR 600-8-10 to process leave and pass requests for Soldiers. This authority may be further restricted by commanders and supervisors in the chain of command or supervision.

     b. (3.D.23.C.) [CHANGE TO READ] For Soldiers deploying to, or redeploying from, any operational area, including COVID-19 operational areas, all ACOMs, ASCCs, and DRUs will follow the requirements outlined in DOD force Health Protection Supplement 16, Annex JJJ.

     c. (3.D.23.C.1.) [ADD] Soldiers and DA Civilians deploying outside the United States will undergo a mandatory ROM and COVID test prior to deployment. Pursuant to SECARMY VOCO, travel-associated ROM is reduced to a minimum ROM for 7 days with a negative SARS-COV-2 test within 48 hours prior to the end of the 7-day ROM. The test completed as part of the 7-day ROM will also meet the pre-travel testing requirement if the test is conducted 1 to 3 days before departure. If the host nation requires a ROM upon arrival in the country, then a pre-deployment ROM is not required. A pre-travel COVID test is always required. This pre-deployment ROM is separate from any ROM that commanders deem necessary upon arrival at a mobilization station in order to ensure the safety of the mobilizing force.

     d. (3.D.23.C.2.) [ADD] Soldiers and DA Civilians redeploying to the United States from or through a foreign country will undergo a mandatory ROM upon arrival at their destination. Pursuant to SECARMY VOCO, travel-associated ROM is reduced to 10 days without testing, or 7 days with a negative SARS-COV-2 test within 48 hours prior to the end of the 7-day ROM. For redeployment from within the United States, service members and DA civilians will undergo a risk-based screening to determine if a ROM is indicated.

     e. (3.D.41.) [CHANGE TO READ] IAW Annex FFF, DOD Force Health Protection Supplement 15.1, and Annex LLL Dod Force Health Protection Supplement 18, commanders and supervisors will continue to follow prescribed procedures and standards for testing and quarantine of close contacts of a case (as determined by contact tracing). Personnel Who have been fully vaccinated as defined by CDC or personnel who have tested positive for COVID-19 within the past 3 months and who have recovered, are not required to remain out of the workplace even if they have been in close contact with someone who is suspected or confirmed to be infected with COVID-19, if they remain asymptomatic.

2. RECORD REVIEWS ARE NOT AUTHORIZED FOR MANUAL UPLOAD TO iPERMS. From HRC Army Soldier Records Branch: Due to the Records Review signing issue with the new Adobe version, we have received several IPERMS batches containing Personal Records Reviews for processing. Unfortunately, record reviews cannot be added by uploading to an iPERMS batch.  The only way to add the document is by completing the signature process in the Record Review Tool once the Adobe issues have been resolved. https://www.milsuite.mil/book/message/932374
