Laboratory (MCWL) the services of role players to participate in the
Advanced Warfighting Experiment (AWE) located in the vicinity of
Monterey and San Francisco, CA; or Oakland, CA; or Southern, CA
(specific location To Be Determined (TBD)). The Marine Corps
Warfighting Laboratory (MCWL) will be conducting the Urban Warrior
Advanced Warfighting Experiment (AWE). The focus of the AWE is combat
in cities and urban areas. The AWE will experiment with new concepts,
tactics, and technologies that will enable Marines to fight and win on
the urban battlefield. Planning for the AWE began 1 December 1998 and
will extend through the end of March 1999 in the vicinity of Monterey
and San Francisco, CA; or Oakland, CA; or Southern CA (specific
location TBD). The scope of this effort is to provide role players to
participate in the AWE in March 1999 located in San Francisco, CA; or
Oakland, CA; or Southern, CA (specific location TBD). The scenario
backdrop is one that simulates the environment of an unstable
developing nation. While sections of the evolution may be captured on
film, the primary audience will be the military participants conducting
tactical experimentation on the set. The set will include military
people running, yelling and shooting blanks in an action/adventure
scenario. The contractor shall provide 200 role players for six (6)
days to participate in the AWE. The role players shall be between the
ages of 18 and 55. Demographic preference is that role players appear
to be distinctly non-military (e.g. not clean cut and neat nor
conservatively dressed). Role players must be capable of walking around
a large experiment area (set) and acting/improvising lines for several
hours at a time without specific direction. General direction (e.g.
basic role descriptions and set/experiment orientation) will be
provided by the government prior to the start of the exercise. Scene
specific direction will be provided by the government throughout the
evolution of the exercise. The role players will be briefed by the
government on the safety rules and procedures of the set/experiment
area. There will be a designated government safety officer on-site who
will have final authority on safety procedures and can interrupt the
scenario to ensure the safety of all participants. The role players
shall be prepared for loud noises and minor smoke effects
intermittently throughout the scenario. The contractor shall provide
payroll and liability insurance for the role players. The government
will train the role players on-site for two (2) days, scheduled 9 and
10 March 1999. The first day of training, 9 March 1999, will consist of
classroom and observation sessions from 0700 through 1630. The second
day of training, 10 March 1999, will consist of a full dress rehearsal
from 0700 through 1630. The role players shall play their assigned
roles for four (4) full days from 1100 through 1630 on 14 March 1999,
0700 through 1630 on 15-17 March 1999, and 0700 through 1200 on 18
March 1999. The contractor shall deliver the role players as a group.
Parking will not be available for the role players. In addition, the
government must control access to the set. Role players shall arrive
on-site with costumes/weather appropriate clothing. The government will
not provide meals, snacks, water and other subsistence needs for the
role players during scheduled training and exercises. The government
will make available restroom facilities for the role players during
scheduled training and exercises. Out of the 200 role players provided
by the contractor, 29 role players shall have specified roles
