REPORTING EQUIPMENT IMPROVEMENT RECOMMENDATIONS (EIR)
If any component in your system needs improvement, let us know. Send us an EIR. You, the user, are the only one

Put it on an SF 368, Product Quality Deficiency Report. Mail it to the address specified in DA PAM 738-750, or as
specified by the contracting activity. We will send you a reply.
CORROSION PREVENTION AND CONTROL (CPC)
Corrosion Prevention and Control (CPC) of Army materiel is a continuing concern. It is important that any corrosion
problems with this item be reported so that the problem can be corrected and improvements can be made to prevent
the problem in future items.
While corrosion is typically associated with rusting of metals, it can also include deterioration of other materials, such
as rubber and plastic. Unusual cracking, softening, swelling or breaking of the materials may be a corrosion problem.
If a corrosion problem is identified, it can be reported using SF 368, Product Quality Deficiency Report. Use of key
words, such as "corrosion", "rust", "deterioration" or "cracking", will ensure that the information is identified as a
CPC problem. The form should be submitted to the address specified in DA PAM 738-750, Functional Users Manual
for The Army Maintenance Management System (TAMMS).
OZONE DEPLETING SUBSTANCES
The continued use of ODS has been prohibited by Executive Order 12856 of 3 August 1993.
DESTRUCTION OF ARMY MATERIEL TO PREVENT ENEMY USE
The procedures for destruction of Army materiel to prevent enemy use are contained in TM 750-244-6.
PREPARATION FOR STORAGE AND SHIPMENT REFERENCE
