(SGHR ITEMS NO. 2, 71) BACKGROUND: Supplies were destroyed as they would not be accepted by other facilities in quantities less than unit of issue. Guidance was lacking or unclear about disposition of unneeded medical assets from theater. DISCUSSION: Supplies were needlessly destroyed, or lost through spoilage. RECOMMENDATIONS: Mobility teams consisting of medical logisticians should be developed for the redeployment of valuable medical assets. An official channel is needed to identify who can receive drugs. ACTIONS REQUIRED: Revision to AFM 67-1, Volume 5, will provide appropriate guidance on redeployment of medical assets. ACTIONS COMPLETED: Revision of AFM 67-1 has been accomplished. STATUS: Recommend closure.
