point specified in the purchase document and a receipt
signature has been obtained.
Deliveries Free Alongside
Some purchase documents call for delivery free
alongside (FAS) barge or ship. Delivery is considered
complete when stores have been inspected, accepted,
and delivered alongside or within convenient reach of
the ship’s tackle or other loading equipment.
Deliveries by Combat Logistics Force Ships
Normally, deliveries by combat logistics force
(CLF) ships will be considered complete when stores
have been placed in the conveyance along the CLF ship
and signatures have been obtained. The conveyances are
normally boats or barges. However, during underway
replenishment (UNREP), deliveries will be considered
complete when the stores have cleared the side of the
issuing ship.
