How to Get a Unit-Tailored Pubs Listing
If you’re stumped about which pubs are needed for your unit, the Logistics
Support Activity (LOGSA) Equipment Oriented Publications Database (EOPDB)
crew can help. You can receive customized listings of the equipment pubs needed
to support your unit by emailing your six-digit unit identiFcation codes (UICs) and
maintenance levels (10/20, 10/30, etc.), your name, rank/grade, military address and
phone number to the EOPDB team:
logsa.eopdb@conus.army.mil
A customized list is especially beneFcial to units that are getting ready to deploy
or returning from deployment. A response will come to you by return email within a
few business days.
Questions? Contact the EOPDB team:
DSN 645-9845
or

About the Unit Publications Tailored Listing
When you request a tailored listing from the EOPDB team, you’ll get back a pdf
broken out into three separate reports:
•
Publications tailored index by pub number—
Pubs required by your unit, sorted
by pub number
•
Publications tailored index by equipment line item number (LIN)—
Pubs
required by your unit and sorted by LIN
•
Publications tailored index rejected LINs—
All LINs included in your authorized
equipment that do not have an associated pub (usually because it’s an equipment item
for which no Army pub was developed).
Your listings will begin with your six-digit UIC code, followed by three
characters indicating the type of report, for example, PUB, LIN, or REJ. These
characters will be followed by a pdf extension. The report will have a Flename like:
WXXXX1PUB.pdf, where the Xs represent alphanumeric characters.
Remember:
Unit pub tailored listing reports are based upon the authorized
equipment in your unit’s current MTOE. However, the reports also include “On-
Hand” (sometimes called subs) equipment, which are based upon your unit’s
property book. “On-Hand but Not Authorized by MTOE” equipment is identiFed
by an asterisk (*) on the left side of the page.

Is Your Unit Using
the
Latest
Pubs?
Publications come and go, so
it’s all too easy to get behind
or lose track of which TMs,
pubs and updates your unit
already has on hand or what
it may need down the road.
it’s critical to maintain
equipment, especially in
combat environments. But
grabbing just any old TM
off the shelf won’t do.
You want to be sure you
have the latest and greatest
information
so you can
properly maintain the latest
and greatest
equipment!
hmm…I
think
this is the
right TM.
sure, if I was
made in the
Dark Ages!
