Who must Maintain their clothing bag items and any supplemental clothing items they are issued?

• A. All Enlisted Personnel
• B. All Officers
• C. Non-commissioned Officers
• D. Civilian employees

Answer: (A)

Maintaining the clothing bag items and any supplemental clothing issued is the wearer's responsibility. The Army expects the person who uses those items to keep them complete, clean, and serviceable so they can be worn when required, which ties directly to personal accountability and uniform readiness. This requirement is tied to the standard clothing bag program issued to enlisted personnel, including recruits and Soldiers in training. Officers have their own uniform management arrangements, and civilian employees aren’t covered by this clothing bag program. Therefore, the obligation falls on all enlisted personnel to maintain their clothing bag items and any supplemental clothing issued to them.
