EXPLANATION OF ENTRIES. 1. Alphabetical Index - by Unit Type. An alphabetical index grouped by unit type is provided at the beginning of Chapter 2. A count of units of each type is provided in parentheses adjacent each unit type heading. Unit Name Index - by OPFAC Number. A numeric OPFAC index is also provided at the beginning of Chapter 2. Facility Listing. The units listed in Chapters 2 and 3 of this publication are grouped together under their respective immediate commander (e.g., Commandant, Area Commander, District Commander, Activities Commander). a. b. First Column - The official name designation, location and congressional district of each unit and subunits. Second Column - The five digit OPFAC number displayed in this column is exclusively and individually assigned to each unit. (The OPFAC number, the program and the boat/aircraft allowance are not normally indicated for subunits since accountability belongs with the parent unit.) In the assignment of the five digit OPFAC numbers, an attempt has been made, where possible, to allocate a number to each cutter and shore unit according to a series so designated for each specific class of cutter and each type of shore unit. This same OPFAC number, when preceded by "Z" is used in the Department of Defense Activity Address Directory DOD 4000.25 (series) for mailing, freight and billing purposes. When preceded by an "E" it is called the Unit Identification Code (uIc), and is used in various readiness reports (UNITREP, CASREP,
2. 3.
1-5
MOVREP, etc.) and readiness plans (operation plans, operation orders, etc.). The two digits preceding the OPFAC number reflect the Administrative Target Unit (ATU) of the unit as prescribed in Part II, Chapter II, Volume 1, Accounting Manual, COMDTINST M7300.6 (series). c. Third Column - The remarks column is miscellaneous information: unusual ship status, operational control shown when different than normal chain of command, special designation of a unit, etc. The remarks column is used for a variety of entries when it is desirable to identify information or specify data for ease of retrieval from computer storage. Fourth Column - This column is a listing of "programs" (see paragraph 1-B-1 for abbreviation codes). Programs are listed in alphabetical order for each unit. Fifth Column - This column is a listing of "functions" (see paragraph 1-B-5 for abbreviation codes). Functions are listed in alphabetical order for each unit. Sixth and Seventh Column - Shows the boat/aircraft allowance prescribed for the unit. Paragraphs 1-B-3 and 1-B-4 indicate the abbreviations used to identify the types of boats and aimraft in current use.
