High priority or lo-o-ong wait.(Supply Requisitions ...)

Dear Editor:

As an inventory management specialist for SBCCOM (now TACOM-RI), I've seen evidence that some supply types in the Field don't understand the required delivery date (RDD) when submitting requisitions.

Some unit supply people I've talked to think an ROD of "001" is the highest; priority RDD. They didn't know an RDD of 001 is the Julian calendar date for Jan 1. I believe a lot of supply personnel think the same thing.

I get numerous requisitions with a Priority 02 and an RDD of 001, and these are requisitions that are submitted after Ja
