Introduction
There is an old saying that "the job isn't finished till the
paperwork is done." In the Army this probably is truer than anywhere
else.
When tasked with troubleshooting or repairing a malfunction,
the Army (and your command in particular) needs some way of
documenting the time spent troubleshooting, and the time spent
repairing the vehicle or piece of equipment.

Army uses a DA Form 2404, equipment inspection and maintenance
worksheet.
The topic of this task is DA Form 2404. In this task, we will cover
