224TH MI BN, HUNTER ARMY AIR FIELD, GA. GRV WAS REPLACED BY IGRV,
AN/USD-9A, AT USAREUR AND FT HOOD.   THE IGRV IN USAREUR WAS THEN
REPLACED BY THE GUARDRAIL COMMON SENSOR SYSTEM 4 (GRCS-4), WHILE
THE IGRV IN FT HOOD IS SCHEDULED TO BE REPLACED BY THE GUARDRAIL
COMMON SENSOR SYSTEM 2 (GRCS-2) IN 1997. GRV WAS REPLACED BY
GRCS-1 IN THE 224TH MI BN IN SEP 93.

     2.  GRCS-1 CONSISTS  OF THE FOLLOWING LINS:

         Z04300 (M087AA), Z48621 (M087AB), Z32369 (M087AC),
