issued to return the item to the vendor.
d. Forms. The Air Force, Navy, and Defense Nuclear Agency organizations, that use Army designed or manufactured
materiel and related instructions, may send in reports on their own service forms.

or mixed up. If instructions to return the bad item(s) for checkout are received, mark the shipping paper and materiel
like this: Exhibit for MIF#/DIF#. (For conventional ammunition, the tagged exhibits would be marked for Malfunction
