Abstract

The DoD Office of Inspector General performed an assessment of the control and accountability of Arms, Ammunition, and Explosives (we did not include an evaluation of explosives in our assessment) in Iraq in September and October 2007. The results of that assessment and recommendations for corrective actions were published in DoD IG (DoD Inspector General) Report No. SPO-2008-001, Assessment of the Accountability of Arms and Ammunition Provided to the Security Forces of Iraq, July 3, 2008. The Inspector General assembled an assessment team in February 2008 to determine the status of the corrective actions being implemented for the accountability and control of arms, ammunition, and explosives being transferred to the Iraq Security Forces. Before returning to Iraq, the assessment team visited Afghanistan in April, 2008 to assess issues involving the accountability and control of Arms, Ammunition, and Explosives, the responsiveness of U.S. FMS processes supporting ANSF, and the development of logistics sustainment capability for ANSF, to include a related issue on building the Afghan military health care system and its sustainment base. Results. The report s results are separated into four parts: Arms, Ammunition, and Explosives; FMS; Logistics Sustainability; and Medical Sustainability.
