Section II PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCE CHECKS AND SERVICES

2-7. Maintenance Forms and Records.

Every mission begins and ends with the paperwork. There isn't much of it, but you have

to keep it up. The forms and records you fill out have several uses. They are a permanent

record of the services, repairs, and modifications made on your vehicle. They are reports to

organizational maintenance and to your commander. And they are a checklist for you when

you want to know what is wrong with the vehicle after its last use, and whether those faults

have been fixed. For the information you need on forms and records, see TM 38-750.
