(6) Loss. Send in a DA Form 2408–9 each time an item needing the form is lost to the Army inventory (fig 5–10).
Losses can be physical or administrative. Send in Loss Reports when items are integrated into higher assemblies. A
loss report is needed on each item going into a higher assembly when the items require a DA Form 2408–9 as shown
in appendix E. A Loss Report is not prepared when equipment has been shipped from one unit/organization to another
unit/organization; this is a Transfer Report (Code 1). Refer to table 5–4 for data reduction instructions and table B-15
for proper codes and definitions.
(7) Gain. Gain Reports cover items that come into the inventory from other than a manufacturer or local purchase
(fig 5–11). Report equipment received from other services (Marine Corps, Air Force), property disposal offices, and so
on, on a Gain Report. Send in a Gain Report on the new item when equipment is integrated into a higher assembly.
Also, a Gain Report is sent in on an item taken out of higher assembly when the items require a DA Form 2408–9, as
shown in appendix E. A Gain Report is not prepared when equipment has been received by the unit/organization from
another unit/organization; this is a Transfer Report (Code 2). Refer to table 5–4 for data reduction instructions and
table B–16 for proper codes and definitions.
(8) Repair program for selected combat and tactical vehicles (fig 5–12).
(a) A DA Form 2408–9 is required each time a selected combat or tactical vehicle is repaired under the continental
United States (CONUS) Tactical Wheeled Vehicle Program, outside the continental United States (OCONUS) Theater
General Support Repair Program (formerly the Transfer Army Repair Program, or other DA-approved programs
requiring DA Form 2408–9 reports. Currently this pertains to vehicles repaired under the two programs mentioned
above and performed only at GS shops, depots, or under contract. Items of equipment requiring DA Form 2408–9 are
designated in the DA Form 2408–9 Repair column in appendix E. DA Form 2408–9 is prepared and submitted by the
organization that performs the repair action.
(b) Use table 5–5 to reduce required data for transmission to LOGSA.
