What action should be taken with the NAVSUP 1336 after use?

The NAVSUP 1336 form is critical for keeping accurate records of food and supply transactions in the Navy. Once it has been filled out and used, the correct course of action is to retain it in the accountability file. This retention ensures that there is a permanent record of the transactions for future reference, audits, and inspections. It assists in maintaining accountability for supplies and inventory management. Keeping these documents is essential for both operational integrity and compliance with Navy regulations.

Archiving is typically associated with storing older documents that are no longer actively used, but the NAVSUP 1336 should be kept accessible as part of the accountability file. Sending it to NAVSUP or destroying it would eliminate the necessary documentation that supports financial and logistical accountability in the culinary operations.
