Which part of the DA Form contains total ammunition count and lot code designators?

Tracking how much ammunition you have on hand and identifying it by batch is done in the Ammunition/Fuzes on Hand section. This part of the DA Form lists the total ammunition count currently available and documents the lot code designators for each batch. Keeping this information together ensures you know exactly how many rounds are in stock and which lot they came from, which is crucial for safety, quality control, and traceability. It contrasts with Ammunition Expended (which records what was used), Administrative Data (general form information), and Fire Mission Data (details for conducting a fire mission). For example, you’d note the total on hand and assign the corresponding lot codes to those rounds in this section so any future recalls or QA checks can be traced back to the exact batches.
