ACTIVE ARMY
One Authorized Source for ACH Pads
A number of Soldiers are buying helmet pads from an unauthorized supply source to wear with
the advanced combat helmet (ACH). That’s the word from PM Soldier Survivability, the people
who developed the ACH. Problem is, these unauthorized pads are not being ordered through
the Army supply system, so there’s no way to make sure the pads meet Army standards. The
Army requires its pads to undergo strict testing.
Trust only one authorized supply source for Army-approved ACH pads: The Army
supply system. Wear only approved pads, ordered through the supply system, in your ACH.
Soldiers are not allowed to requisition, issue or wear pads from any source other than the
Army supply system.
Helmet pads are vital components of the ACH; they provide comfort and protection. Make
sure they’re Army-approved.
PLS Trailer Latch Assembly
Need to replace the latch assembly on the M1076
PLS trailer’s drawbar safety chain hook? Order it
with NSN 2540-01-068-7567. And make a note
until the NSN is added to Item 4 in Fig 32 of TM
9-2330-385-24P.
HMMWV Lower Ball Joint NSN
Need a good NSN for the lower ball
joint on your HMMWV? You can’t get it
using NSN 2530-01-422-9390 anymore.
That’s a terminal item. So use NSN 2530-
01-554-8307 instead.
Truck Driver Training
Moved
New truck drivers have just one location for training
now. As of May 2009, Fort Leonard Wood, MO, is the
only home of the Army’s Motor Transport Operator
(88M10) Advanced Individual Training School. The
training missions of the 1-56th ADA BN at Fort Bliss,
TX, and Fort Leonard Wood’s 58th Transportation BN’s
Motor Transport Operator Course combined into one
center of excellence.
M113A3 FOV
Personnel Heater Kit
Gasket
Use NSN 5330-01-500-5732 to get
a new gasket for the personnel
heater kit on your M113A3 FOV.
NSN 5330-01-071-9839, which is
shown as Item 37 in Fig 348 of
TM 9-2350-277-24P (Oct 03), is no
longer available.
