REPORTING EQUIPMENT IMPROVEMENT RECOMMENDATIONS (EIR)

what you don't like about your equipment. Let us know why you don't like the design or performance. Put it on
SF 368, Product Quality Deficiency Report. Mail it to the address specified in DA PAM 750-8, DA PAM 738-

CORROSION PREVENTION AND CONTROL (CPC)
Corrosion Prevention and Control (CPC) of Army materiel is a continuing concern. It is important that any
corrosion problems with this item be reported so that the problem can be corrected and improvements can be
made to prevent the problem in future items.
While corrosion is typically associated with rusting of metals, it can also include deterioration of other materials,
such as rubber and plastic. Unusual cracking, softening, swelling or breaking of these materials may be a
corrosion problem.
If a corrosion problem is identified, it can be reported using SF 368. Use of key words such as "corrosion", "rust",
"deterioration", or "cracking" will ensure that the information is identified as a CPC problem. The form should be
submitted to the address specified in DA PAM 750-8 or DA PAM 738-751.

This document has been reviewed for the presence of Class 1 Ozone Depleting Chemicals. All references to
