Which of the following is NOT described as a capability of BSIs?

• A. Providing common-user logistics support
• B. Serving as a marshalling, staging, or mobilization area for MSCA
• C. Providing housing
• D. Providing technically qualified personnel

Answer: (C)

Base Support Installations are described as enabling deployment and sustainment through focused support functions. They provide common-user logistics support so multiple units can share standardized services, act as a marshalling, staging, or mobilization area for MSCA to gather and prepare forces and equipment, and supply technically qualified personnel to meet specialized needs. Housing does not fall under these described functions; base housing programs handle housing rather than BSIs. So providing housing is the capability not described for BSIs.
