Hello all. I am currently at Camp Buehring, Kuwait. I've taken ammo handler courses back in Fort Carson, Colorado in January. The course required me to take Ammo-46 Intro to Ammo, Ammo-67 Hazmat Familiarization, Ammo-68 Ammunition Rule.
I have a M4 range coming up on Sunday and I am the only certified person in my company (we had 2 but 1 recently left to different company). I was told by my PL to figure out about drawing ammo and bring them to a range on Saturday but I do not know the whole SOP and procedures.
I was told by an NCO from different Co. that we need 2 certified people when it comes to drawing and transporting them. So I am questioning myself if I am qualified in both drawing + transporting or just drawing them.
Can someone please tell me the limit of what I can do with the current cert? Thank you.

Each post handles the ammo handler program differently, so you need to talk to the people that run the ammo point for the most current info. However, regulation says you have to be an NCO to draw ammo, so you are probably good to transport ammo, but not draw from the ASP.

MSG Bradshaw is correct. Check with the ASP, they will tell you what you need to do. The supply NCO will probably have to sign for the ammunition, but you will most likely load, transport, and unload the physical ammunition at the range's ammunition point. Don't forget your placards! However, some bases are now requiring an ammunition handler be stationed at the range as well.

SPC Jaehyuk Oh, I went to the Ammo Handler's Course back in 2011 and 2013. I remember you had to be an NCO in the rank of SGT to go to the course because you had to an NCO to draw Ammo unless, you were MOS trained to handle Ammo. My buddy who was a CPL was not allowed to attend the course. You should find an NCO who has an ordinance MOS and find out from them or read the applicable regulations and SOPs. I have not handled Ammo since '13 and I do not know what changes have been made.

Hello SSG Kutting. I totally agree with you on being an NCO to draw an ammo. For some reason my unit was able to put my name on the access roster using da 1687...being that said, I am still clueless how I ended up here.
