l DD Form 1348m—Department of
Defense Single Line Item Requisition System
Document (Mechanical).
l NAVSUP Form 1250-1—Single Line
Item Consumption/Requisition Document
(Manual).
The manually prepared DD Form 1250-1 is a
consumption document used primarily by all
nonautomated ships of the submarine forces as a
MILSTRIP requisition document. DD Form
1348m is a standard electric accounting machine
(EAM) card which is used by automated ships
with computer card punch equipment. This
mechanically produced form is similar to the
manually produced DD Form 1348 except for a
few minor differences. DD Form 1348 is the re-
quisition form that most RPs will be preparing
when ecclesiastical supplies are ordered.
Therefore, this form will be used for explanation
purposes in the next few sections. NOTE: The
Requisition and Invoice/Shipping Document,
DD Form 1149, is used as the procurement
document for items excluded from MILSTRIP.
The personnel in the supply department will
assist the RP in determining when it is necessary
to use a DD Form 1149. Figure II-2-11 shows a
blank copy of this form.
A manual requisition is prepared on a 2-,4-,
or 6-part DD Form 1348. Either of these sets
may be used as determined by local command
requirements. All copies of the manual forms
are identical except for data blocks “T” and
“U.” These two blocks are blank on the
original, but the copies are printed to provide a
place to show the unit and total prices of the
material being ordered.
Figure II-2-12 shows the original and green
copy of a 6-part DD Form 1348. Note that the
original and green copy are identical except for
the specific differences shown below in blocks
A DD Form 1348 must be either typed or
filled out using a blue or black ink ballpoint pen.
To eliminate any possible confusion between a
numeric zero and an alphabetic “O,” the com-
munication zero (0) is used on MILSTRIP re-
quisitions when zeroes are applicable. The
following paragraphs will be devoted to explain-
ing the procedures that the RP should use in
preparing a DD Form 1348 for ordering an
ecclesiastical item (Candlelighter and Snuffer,
NSN: 9925-00-639-8664, shown in figure
II-2-13). The original copy of a DD Form 1348
will be used for illustrative purposes. Figure
II-2-14 shows the completed requisition for
this transaction. Data blocks “A” through “V”
