weapons will be issued by the CRC Property Book Officer (PBO). The CRC PBO will coordinate
and transfer all weapons and other sensitive items provided by the CRC to the NRP’s
manifested unit UIC prior to movement. Weapons issued by the CRC PBO will use the
established UIC, WMXAX3, to lateral transfer from the CRC to the gaining unit by the
automated property book system Property Book Unit Supply Enhanced/Global Combat Support
System – Army (PBUSE/GCSS-Army). When this occurs, the weapon becomes unit-owned
property and is not required to be returned to the CRC. Civilians normally will not be issued a
weapon. In the rare case that a weapon is required/approved for a contractor, the weapon must
be laterally transferred directly from the CRC to an Army property book account. NRP weapons
will be posted in PBUSE/GCSS-Army under property book identification code six and type
authorization code nine

b. The CRC PBO will issue weapons to deploying NRP on a DA Form 2062 and provide a
signed PBUSE/GCSS-Army generated DA Form 3161, lateral transfer document, in accordance
with AR 710-2, para 2-8. The CRC PBO will forward an electronic copy of these documents via
e-mail to the Theater Property Book Office (TPBO) point of contact. Each individual NRP will
hand carry hard copies of both documents to the theater provided equipment (TPE) PBO
representative for processing upon arrival in theater.
During in processing in theater, all NRP with CRC issued weapons will provide the TPBO
representative the DA Form 2062 and signed DA Form 3161. The TPBO representative will
accept the signed lateral transfer in PBUSE/GCSS-Army under the established UIC.

c. Upon redeployment, the losing unit in theater will initiate a DA Form 3161, lateral transfer
from their TPE UIC to the designated TPBO representative TPE UIC, WMXAX3, through their
supporting TPE office. The losing unit in theater will provide a DA Form 2062 and a signed
PBUSE/GCSS- Army DA Form 3161 for each NRP to hand-carry to the TPBO representative
and will forward electronic copies of both documents via e-mail to the TPBO representative. The
TPBO representative will accept the pending lateral transfer in PBUSE/GCSS-Army.
The TPBO representative will provide the NRP a hard copy DA Form 2062 and signed
PBUSE/GCSS-Army DA Form 3161 to hand carry to the CRC PBO. The TPBO representative
will forward electronic copies of both documents via e-mail to the CRC PBO in CONUS.

d. The NRP will provide the CRC PBO representative the DA Form 2062 and signed DA Form
3161. The CRC PBO representative will accept the pending lateral transfer in PBUSE/GCSS-
Army within seven days of being initiated. When NRP personnel are medically evacuated or
depart theater under special circumstances, equipment will remain on the NRP’s deployed unit
of assignment TPE property book. Coordination will be made with the TPBO to determine the
final disposition for the equipment prior to unit redeployment.
