REQUISITION SYSTEM DOCUMENT (MANUAL), DD 1348
Most of the information shown on DD 1348 is represented by codes. These codes apply to all levels of supply and are too extensive for all to be included in this chapter. However, some of the more common are included in the data block entry descriptions below. The codes are published in the appendixes of NAVSUP P-485.
Prepare DD 1348 by typewriter or ballpoint pen. Do not use pencil, because pencil marks can cause errors when the requisition is processed through mark-sensing equipment at shore activities. In preparing requisitions, do not space the entries within the “tic” marks printed on the forms, but make sure the entries are made within the proper data blocks. To eliminate any possible confusion between numeric zero and an alphabetic “O,” use the communication zero on MILSTRIP requisitions when zeros are applicable.
In the descriptions below, show the data block letter or number first, then the field legend, or title, as printed on the form, and finally, a description or explanation of the data shown in that block.
DATA BLOCK A, SEND TO—Identification of the supply source is a mandatory entry. If the requisition will be submitted to a shore activity, enter the service designator code (SDC), unit identification code (UIC), name, and location of the activity to which the requisition will be submitted. See the sample entry in the next illustration. If the requisition will be submitted to another ship, enter the SDC, UIC, name, and hull number of the ship as shown in the next illustration.
DATA BLOCK B, REQUISITION IS FROM— Identification of the requisitioner is a mandatory entry. Enter the SDC, UIC. name, and hull number of the requesting ship as shown below.
DATA BLOCK C—At the discretion of the supply officer, enter the name of the requested item in data block C or leave it blank.
DATA BLOCKS D, E, and F, EDITING DATA— These blocks are left blank.
CARD COLUMNS (CCs) 1-3, DOCUMENT IDENTIFIER—The document identifier identifies the purpose of the document, such as requisition, followup, and cancellation. The appropriate three-position document identifier code is entered as follows:

| AØ1 | With NSN/NATO number | AØA |
| AØ5 | With exception data | AØE |
When a requisition contains ANY information in the REMARKS block, such as authority for the requisition, special accounting data, special delivery instructions, or additional identification information, the requisition is said to contain
