Wet Bulb Kit
I
f you need a replacement part for your
wet bulb-globe temperature kit, NSN 6665-
00-159-2218 or NSN 6665-01-381-3023,
don't waste more than $200 by ordering a
whole new kit. Order only the part you
need from this list:
A
ttention unit commanders and ULLS report processors. Ever drive a tank back-
wards for 200 miles or drive one 4,500 miles—in a month? Did you report vehicles
that don’t move all month—with unchanged mileage figures as you should- -or do
you just not report them?
If you’re laughing, don’t! These examples are from actual monthly
AMSS
(Army
Materiel Status System)
End of Period Report
s sent to the USAMC Logistics
Support Activity (LOGSA).
AMSS end of period reports are
rejected
when tracked vehicle mileage exceeds
1,000 miles (1,610 kilometers), when wheeled vehicle mileage exceeds 20,000
miles, or when any vehicle reports negative mileage. Bad equipment data will also
get a report rejected.
You say, so what?
Well,
you lose
when your unit report is rejected. No one sees your usage and
readiness data, including the senior Army leaders who use it to make maintenance
funding decisions for every unit in the Army. So units lose the dollars they need to
perform unit maintenance.
Don’t gamble with your unit’s future. Instead, give the
AMSS End of Period
Report
the priority it deserves and make sure it meets the AMSS standard of 100
percent accuracy—before it goes to LOGSA.
