As storage supervisor, you must be able to show
your soldiers how to make location placards for
new bulk supplies and how to replace location
Placards that are missing at the location site. You
must also be able to chow them how to make loose
issue labels for new bin supplies or remake labels
missing from storage bins. Loose-issue labels are
sometimes called bin tags or bin labels. Use
DA Form 3779 (Location Placard) and DA Form
3778 (Loose Issue Label) to make these location
markers. Make out the location form when you
receive the item. Take it with the item when you
put it into storage. This will help you avoid
making more than one trio to a new location.
Figure 6-15 shows how to fiil out DA Forms 3778
and 3779 using data from the receipt document. To
complete these location markers copy the item's
stock number, condition code, expiration date, and
UI from the receipt document or the item container.
Use AR 708-1 or the AMDF to find the
correct SEC and the shelf-life code. Write U in the
block for the physical security classification and O
in the block for the shelf-life code if none apply.
Copy the stock location code from the location site.
Give the completed location placard or loose issue
label to storage personnel to place at the location.
You may also work with other location site forms.
