ere in Part IV of a five-part PS mini-series on line item numbers (LINs) that can affect unit
readiness reports, we list some LINs in Soldier systems that may cause problems.
Property book officers (PBOs) and supply sergeants should flag these LINs and check
their property books. Remember, correcting issues at the property book level can boost the
unit’s overall readiness ratings.
The following chart lists some problem LINs and their nomenclatures.
Note:
Most of the equipment in this series of articles is common to more than one type
of Army unit.
