What Is the 2775 Pallet Identifier Form?
The DoD 2775 Pallet Identifier is the official military form for documenting and tracking palletized cargo in air logistics operations. Air Force and Army airlift units use it to certify pallet identification, weights, securing methods, and cargo contents before each shipment. It replaced AF Form 2279 in September 1998 and remains the standard pallet documentation form at military air terminals.
