The 8th Army G-3/5 section formed a force integration working group (FIWG) in accordance with Department of the Army Pamphlet (DA PAM) 700-142, Instructions for Materiel Release, Fielding, and Transfer. The FIWG's goal was to eliminate the problems created by the high personnel turn over in Korea, including the accountability of newly fielded equipment. A group of 8th Army G-3/5 force integrators, called the 8AG35FI, was responsible for running the FIWG. The group created an avenue through which other fielding-related con- cerns could be addressed. This article describes how the FIWG was formed and how it can be modeled.
