and arsenals.
In general, the prescribed maintenance responsibilities
will apply as reflected in the allocation of maintenance parts listed

Instructions for depot maintenance are
to be used by maintenance companies in the field only when the tactical
situation makes the repair functions imperative.
Provisions of parts
listed in the depot stock guide column of ORD 8 SNL F-205 will be
made to field maintenance only when the emergency nature of the
maintenance to be performed has been certified by a responsible officer
of the requisitioning organization.
