DA Form 1669. Request for National Stock Number and Department of Defense Identification Code for Ammunition and Explosive Supplies

The DA Form 1669 is used to request a National Stock Number (NSN) and Department of Defense Identification Code (DODIC) for ammunition and explosive supplies. This form is essential for ensuring proper identification and tracking of these items within the Department of the Army.

The form consists of sections for the requestor's information, details of the ammunition or explosive supplies, and certification. The requestor must provide accurate and specific information about the items, including their type, quantity, and any additional details that may be necessary for identification.

When filling out this form, it is important to consider the accuracy and completeness of the information provided. Any errors or omissions could lead to delays or complications in obtaining the NSN and DODIC for the requested supplies.

An example of an application for the DA Form 1669 could be a unit within the Army that requires additional ammunition or explosive supplies for training exercises. By submitting this form, they can ensure that the supplies are properly identified and tracked within the Army's inventory management system.

An alternative form that may be used in similar situations is the DD Form 1348-1A, Issue Release/Receipt Document. While both forms serve the purpose of requesting and tracking supplies, the DA Form 1669 specifically focuses on ammunition and explosive items.
