What duties/operations does S1 handle in Saudi Arabia vs Garrison (or do they remain the same)? What would be their hours of operations?

Is there a specific question that you have for the board? I can't tell what you're trying to ask, if anything, from the wording in the title.

Should be the same task/METL for any HR unit that is deployed/mobilized.

SGT Private RallyPoint Member I don’t know what type of units you have been a part of, but as the S-1 of any unit I’ve been a part we don’t have time to do anything except HR functions. No matter what the units mission is, the S-1’s function remains the same; advise the CDR on all personnel related matters and provide HR support. SGM Bill Frazer said it perfectly, if you want to know the details of what that unit excepts from the S-1 then get with your BN XO. The XO runs the staff for the CDR. Also, engage with the unit CSM as he has direct input on all personnel matters as well. No matter the location, there are basic S-1 duties that must still be accomplished. There will be some minor specific duties from being posted in Saudi Arabia vs Germany vs Texas, but you would need to engage with someone who is currently in the unit to find out.
