The Expeditionary Individual Support System (EISS) provides the individual equipment essential to maintaining USAF personnel and unit-level readiness throughout various austere deployment activities. The 1500923-0310-0823-3 is vital to operational success, allowing users to be self-sufficient with rapid-response capability while conducting independent operations in remote, high-threat environments. The components allow Airmen to quickly take control of unsecure areas, support critical facilities and expeditiously improve DOD utility systems. The EISS is critical to the USAF, supporting a number of orchestrated, contingent operations and response efforts around the globe at any given time. V823.3
