The MCS system provides the primary tactical planning tool for the brigade. Supported by graphics decision support tools, including digital maps, aerial or satellite photos, dynamic 3D "flyover" view of the battlespace, and mobility analysis of the terrain, map overlays with intelligence and battle resources by unit. Commanders can quickly and clearly analyze different courses of action and take decisions based on thorough analysis of up-to-date situational assessment, various maneuver schemes, doctrine, and changes encountered during the course of action. Once detailed plan is determined, the MCS prepare and send warning operations orders, and related annexes. During the mission, the system provides automatic updates of friendly/enemy unit movement locations and battlefield geometry. As all information is maintained on the database, re-tasking of units is rapid and flexible. As an integrated part of the battle command systems, MCS receives information from external sources and updates those sources within predetermined operational plans. Such sources include intelligence, fire support, supply status and air operations requests. 2, record 8, English, - Maneuver%20Control%20System

Le diagnostic : «multiple chemical sensitivity» ou «MCS» (allergie aux produits chimiques multiples) est utilisé pour étiqueter les personnes présentant une foule de symptômes [...] attribués à des éléments de l'environnement. [...] Le concept du MCS a été développé par un allergiste du nom de Theron G. Randolph, M.D. (1906-1995), qui était convaincu que des patients devenaient malades suite à l'exposition à des substances à doses beaucoup plus faibles que celles considérées sans dangers. Dans les années 40, il déclara que les allergies causaient la fatigue, l'irritabilité, des troubles de comportement, de la dépression, de la confusion, et de la tension nerveuse chez les enfants. Dans les années 50, Randolph suggérait que les humains ne se sont pas adaptés suffisamment à des produits chimiques synthétiques modernes ce qui s'est traduit par une nouvelle forme de sensibilité à ces substances. Sa préoccupation qu'il avait déjà avec les aliments s'est étendue aussi à un grand nombre de substances chimiques. Avec les années, la condition [...] a été appelée par plusieurs noms : la toxémie allergique, l'allergie cérébrale, la sensibilité chimique, la maladie écologique, la maladie environnementale, [le] dérèglement du système immunitaire, [la] sensibilité chimique multiple, [le] syndrome allergique total, [l']allergie environnementale totale, [le] syndrome de trouble immunologique total, [le] syndrome de réponse toxique, la maladie du 20e siècle, l'allergie universelle, et plusieurs autres noms qui suggèrent une variété de facteurs comme causes. [NOTA Ces noms ne sont pas de parfaits synonymes mais des descriptions de la maladie selon différentes perspectives, la sensibilité (ou hypersensibilité) étant la cause, et la maladie, l'effet.] Ces étiquettes sont aussi liées au syndrome de la Guerre du Golfe, [à] la maladie des tours à bureaux scellés [sic], [au] syndrome de tapis toxique, et [à] d'autres diagnostics [sic : diagnostics] très controversés. 7, record 16, French, - sensibilit%C3%A9%20chimique%20multiple
