Which form handles COMSEC issue, transfer, destruction, and inventory?

• A. SF-153s
• B. SF-701s
• C. SF-702s
• D. SF-155s

Answer: (A)

The key idea is formal accountability for COMSEC material. When COMSEC items are issued, transferred between accounts, destroyed, or counted in inventory, there needs to be a single, official record that tracks all those lifecycle actions and who handled them. The form designed for that purpose is the COMSEC Material Report. It documents what material is involved, its serials or key numbers, quantities, the issuing and receiving accounts, dates, and the action taken (issue, transfer, destruction). This creates an auditable trail for custody and inventory checks, which is essential for proper COMSEC stewardship. Other security forms serve different tasks (like container security or area checks) and do not provide the complete lifecycle accounting of COMSEC material.
