What form is used to inventory Organizational Clothing and Individual Equipment (OCIE)?

• A. DA FORM 3078
• B. DA FORM 3645
• C. DA FORM 3646
• D. DA FORM 3500

Answer: (B)

The main idea is that OCIE is tracked with a dedicated, item-by-item inventory record so units can verify what they actually have against what’s listed in their records. DA Form 3645 is the form designed specifically for this purpose. It provides a structured sheet to list each organizational clothing and individual equipment item, along with important details such as item name, stock number, size if relevant, quantity on hand, location, and any remarks about condition. Using this form creates a clear, auditable snapshot of the unit’s OCIE, making it easier to spot shortages or surpluses, confirm serviceability, and support periodic inventories and audits. Other forms exist for issuing, turning in, or requesting OCIE, but they’re used for different steps in the process, not for conducting the itemized inventory itself.
