17-2.1. General
a.
Maintenance Forms and Records. Every
mission begins and ends with the paperwork. There isn't
much of it, but you have to keep it up. The forms and
records you fill out have several uses; they are a
permanent
record
of
the
services,
repairs,
and
modifications made on your equipment; they are reports
to Organizational Maintenance and to your Commander;
and they are a checklist for you when you want to know
what is wrong with the equipment after its last use, and
whether those faults have been fixed. For information
you need on forms and records, see: DA Pamphlet 738-
750.
