Navy Ammunition Logistic Code listed in the
Navy Ammunition Stock Microfiche, TWO10-
AA-ORD-010/NA 11-1-116A (NOTAL). DODICs
are also specified in the four technical manuals
mentioned in the details for block 11.
Block 4—Nomenclature or Type of Device.
Enter the name/type device.
Block 5—Lot No. Enter the lot number of the
device.
Block 6—Serial No. Enter the serial number
of the device. For devices not serialized, enter
Block 7—Purpose or Location. Enter the
purpose or the location of the device.
Block 8—Installing Activity/Date. Enter the
short title of the activity and the month and year
that the device was installed; for example,
VA34/JUL90.
Block 9—Container Open Date. Enter the
month and year the container was opened; for
example, JUL 90. When the container open date
is not required for AEPS devices, “NA” will be
entered.
Block 10—Date of Manufacture. Enter the
date, month, and year of manufacture; for
example, JUL 90. For CADS enter manufacture
date, and for AEPS enter propellant manufacture
date.
Block 11—Expiration Date. Enter the
computed month and year; for example, JUL 90.
Installed service-life expiration dates for explosive
devices are computed from the date of
manufacture, the date the hermetically sealed
container is opened, and the date the device is
installed. The method used in computing the
expiration date of explosive devices and the
number of months/years a specific device may
remain in service is contained in NA 11-
85-1-1.2(NOTAL), NA 11-100-1.1(NOTAL), NA
11-100-1.2(NOTAL), and NA 11-100-1.3(NOTAL).
When installed explosive safety devices have
extensions granted, the expiration date will be
updated by drawing a line through the old
expiration date and placing the new expiration
date above it. The authority granting the
extension, for example, message originator and
date time group (DTG or IRAC number and
manual), will be logged in the Remarks Column
(block 12).
Block 12—Remarks. Make applicable
remarks. This block is limited in size; use the
Miscellaneous/History page if additional space is
required.
Block 13—Removal Date. Enter the month
and year the device was removed; for example,
JUL 90.
POLICY FOR SAFETY PROGRAM
Learning Objective: Recognize the
importance of training personnel to fully
comply with safety precautions and
directives.
While no attempt has been made in this
training manual to cover all the areas of safety
responsibility pertaining to the AME rating,
enough has been presented to stress to the AME1
and AMEC the importance of safety. Senior
AMEs must continually strive to improve the
safety program.
The AME must interpret and apply safety
directives and precautions established by the
Department of the Navy, type commander, local
command, and the precautions required for each
job. Safety directives and precautions must be
followed to the letter. This will save lives, prevent
injuries, and prevent damage to equipment.
Should an occasion arise in which doubt exists
about the application of a particular directive or
precaution, the measure to be taken is that which
will achieve maximum safety. A shipboard
operation requires more attention to safety than
a shore-based operation. Although, in most
instances, the hazards and the precautions are
the same whether the work is done afloat or
ashore.
