AEROGRAPHER'S MATE 3 & 2 



MILSTRIP was designed to provide complete 

 coverage for supply transactions affecting the 

 3,700,000 stock items. in the entire Department 

 of Defense supply system, so that a transaction 

 can be processed without change by any inven- 

 tory manager and/or stock point. 



MILSTRIP Forms 



The Release/Receipt Document, DD Form 

 1348-1, is for material movement (shipping) 

 only. 



The DD Form 1348m (single card) is used 

 as the requisition document by all activities 

 having key punch capability. Activities which 

 do not have key punch capability prepare DD 

 Form 1348 manually, and hand-carry or mail 

 the requisitions to the supporting activity. The 

 DD Form 1348 replaces many forms because it 

 is used for almost all requisitioning and followup 

 actions. 



The six-part DD Form 1348 is identical to 

 the 1348m, except it has provisions for carbon 

 copies. Further, it is filled in by typewriter 

 or ballpoint pen. The form carries columns 

 for all the essential information which goes 

 into a requisition, and all this information is 

 coded according to standard codes as published 

 and maintained in the supply department of your 

 ship or station. All Navy activities use these 

 various codes. The manner of filling in the 

 form is not discussed here because the details 

 for completing vary from station to station or 

 ship to ship and are subject to rapid change. 

 Your primary concern is the correct stock 

 number, priority, unit of issue, demand of item, 

 quantity, and requisition delivery date. 



Normally, the correct stock number is found 

 in the Master Cross Reference List (MCRL), 

 the Navy Management Data List (NMDL), or 

 in the general stock catalogs which are kept 

 in supply. For most of the frequently used items, 

 the stock numbers should be in your supply 

 logbook. Each stock number should be verified 

 in the MCRL and the NMDL prior to req- 

 uisitioning. 



Priorities are deternr ned by code. The unit 

 of issue is furnished in the stock catalog, as 

 is the quantity. The delivery date is also 

 governed by code. 



Accountability should not greatly concern 

 you at the AG 3 and 2 levels. Most of the ma- 

 terial you order will be consumable, with Code 



C. Other material will have an accountability 

 code which may require a custody card. 



Self- Service Store 

 (SERVMART) 



SERVMARTs eliminate the need for formal 

 itemized request documents. Frequently, a 

 "credit card" is issued to the meteorological 

 supply PO, as required, to draw necessary 

 supplies. Otherwise a DD Form 1348 is pre- 

 pared with accounting data and "SERVMART" 

 indicated for nomenclature. Final cost is entered 

 by the "SERVMART' after material is drawn. 

 Procedures vary greatly with activities. 



The SERVMART stocks items for which there 

 is a constant demand. These items are in- 

 dividually marked and displayed in counter-high 

 bins for convenient self-service selection. Issue 

 accountability is recorded by means of a cash 

 register type sales slip which must be re- 

 turned to the meteorological activity along with 

 the credit card, or completed DD Form ?.348. 



Direct Local Procurement 



At times it will be necessary to purchase 

 items directly from local suppliers. There are 

 many rules and regulations governing this pro- 

 cedure, and they are not treated here. Such 

 procurements are generally limited to items 

 used in an emergency, or items which are not 

 stocked in the Navy supply system; they must 

 also meet certain cost limitations. 



As a general rule, a requisition is submitted 

 to the local supply department citing all neces- 

 sary descriptive information and a suggested 

 source of supply. The local supply department 

 then prepares the appropriate documents and 

 makes the actual purchase from the commer- 

 cial supplier. 



Publications and Forms 



Requisitions for publications and forms listed 

 in NAVSUP 2002 are submitted on DD Form 1348 

 ONLY, and bear the National Stock Number. 



MISCELLANEOUS SUPPLY 

 PROCEDURES 



Supply involves more than merely making 

 out requisition forms when you need something, 

 and signing a document when you get something.
