et’s face it. Keeping the unit property
book can be a big pain in the neck.
But it just got easier.
As of Jun 99, LINs were dropped from
all radio installation kits for tactical ra-
dio systems. These kits are no longer
property book items.
In September 1999, the kits will be-
come Class IX expendable items.
So drop ’em like a bad habit from
your property book and don’t include
them as part of your unit’s readiness
reports.
For more info on this change, see DA
MSG DAMO-FDC, 191215Z Oct 98.
Your local Logistics Assistance Office
will have a copy.
