No DRMO for M2 Aiming Circle
The M2A2 aiming circle hasn’t been manufactured since the ‘50s and it hasn’t been upgraded
since the ‘80s. But the Army is still using the M2A2 and wants to keep using it. That’s why the
M2A2 should never be turned in to DRMO. If you have an M2, NSN 1290-00-614-0008, or M2A2,
NSN 6675-01-067-0687, that doesn’t work or is excess, turn it in. The Army will upgrade the M2
or Fx the M2A2 and get it back to the Feld.

The Army announced Fve years ago that it
was through with DS2, the decontaminant
used with the M11 and M13 decon systems.
Unfortunately, some units never got the
word and there are still lots of DS2 out there.
Chemical companies and CBRN specialists
need to check their stocks for DS2 and if they
Fnd any,
turn it in.
The DS2 NSNs affected are 4230-00-720-
1618 (M11 DAP), 4230-01-133-4124 (M13
DAP), 6850-01-136-8888 (M13 reFll), 6850-00-
753-4870 (5-gal pail) and 6850-00-753-4827
(1

/
3-qt can).
Turn in DS2 through your local supply
support activity. They will coordinate DS2
disposal with the Defense Reutilization and
Marketing OfFce (DRMO) following the
guidance in TACOM SBC Supply Advisory
Message 04-12-012.
The M11 DAP has been replaced by the
M100 sorbent decon system, NSN 4230-01-
466-9095, on a 1-to-1 basis. The M13 DAP
is replaced by the M100 on a 1-to-3 basis—
