SUPPLY AND SERVICES

Common use supplies are obtained and issued to all military organi-
zations on Shemya, by the 5040th Air Base Squadron. Each organization
has its own internal supply unit to obtain technical items and to
account for all supplies and equipment.

Common equipment is obtained by the 5040th Air Base Squadron to employ
in support of tenant organizations. Certain equipment, such as
vehicles, is programmed by the 5040th Air Base Squadron in compliance
with Joint Tenancy Agreements. Such equipment may be dispatched to
or receipted for by tenant unit commanders.

Necessary work, such as repair of buildings, is requested of the 5040th
Air Base Squadron, by submission of work orders. Work is completed
by assigned Air Force people or contracted to Northwest Airlines,
depending on capability to do the work and availability of funds.
Station Regulations govern procedures for supply, equipment and work.
