The safe evacuation of noncombatants (military dependents and other American nationals) from hostile areas is of prime political and military importance. This research examines the Noncombatant Evacuation Operations (NEO) from six Aerial Ports of Embarkation (APOEs) in the Federal Republic of Germany (FRG). It extends the micro analysis of evacuation operations at two FRG bases, which was accomplished in a previous thesis. Using the Q-Gert analysis program, the evacuation process is simulated from alert warning through enemy overrun. Data is collected and analyzed concerning the number of planeloads of noncombatant personnel safely existing the system under varying amounts of airlift capability. Sensitivity analysis is also performed on the APOE overrun times. Research results demonstrate how aircraft availability and APOE overrun times can make a significant difference in the number of evacuees exiting the FRG. Finally, the simulation model was designed to allow NEO planners the ability to tailor variables to fit their specific requirements. (Author)
