DA Form 5515 example filled out, example: an issuance from the ammunition supply point
On the day of an issue, SGT Jane Sample fills in the Document No. and Page boxes and the Section A header, then lists one item of ammunition with its DODIC/NOMENCLATURE, Lot/Serial No., Qty. Issued and the Qty. Residue required. She fills 18a. BRIEFED BY and 18b. DATE because before issue, soldiers are told to return all A&E and residue upon request. The Qty. Residue and Qty. Live Turned-in boxes under TURNED-IN, the 19a. and 19b. briefing for the turn-in request, the 20a. and 20b. verification and the 21a. and 21b. inspection stay empty because they are filled when the ammunition is turned back in. Section B stays empty for the same reason. 38. REMARKS stays empty because the example has no notes to add. Jane signs on the 14. ISSUED BY signature box and PVT John Example signs on the 15. RECEIVED BY signature box. Every name, date and number in the example is made up. The picture shows page 1 only. Open the picture to see it full size.
