Dear Editor,
Equipment identification cards constantly have to be
replaced because they get wet, illegible or torn. If we
keep the cards inside the equipment record folder, the
information on the cArds may not be updated or a
lubrication or oil sample may be missed.
Our solution is to print the non-changing information on
the card, such as the serial number, NSN and model
number. Then we acetate the front and the back of the card.
Get the acetate with NSN 9330±00²752±9091.
The driver's and supervisor's names, service, lubrication
and oil sample information are printed on the acetate using
an alcohol²based pen. The ink stands up through water and
is easily removed with rubbing alcohol .

Now our cards no longer
get torn from changing the
information. ³lso, they no
longer get wet because they
are weatherproof.
