So what are the officials colors allowed to be used on DA forms? So me and several where having a discussion of sorts and I said you could use black or blue ink for official forms. I'm right or wrong?

SSG(P) (Join to see) Big deal! Go BLACK, be safe!

I continue seeing requirements for ‘black’ ink only. Black only makes no sense to me, so what! I always try to avoid problems!

Black or Blue is authorized...however...I have seen VERY FEW forms in blue ink. I had a Commander that would require the entire document in black ink - but would sign in blue ink and then scan to PDF (one of his quirks, I suppose).

Go black I had a soldier do one in blue and after 4 months it was returned with the note - BLACK INK ONLY - made him miss his ANCOC (read Senior Leaders Course! class.
