Property Accountability:
(1)
When the battalion was first formed it was intended
that only one property account would be used and that
all property would be shipped to this Account Number
(GP285),
As work of organizing progressed it became
apparent that this was not a workable plan considering the future mission of the battalion and amount of
money involved.
Therefore separate account numbers
were obtained for each of the services,
(2)
The service depots on Oahu were to furnish shipping
documents to the consolidated property account of all
property shipped to the battalion.
These in turn
were to be turned over to the various property
accounts after arrival at destination.
