a.
Corrosion prevention and control (CPC) of Army materiel is a continuing concern, particularly since the CBT
usually operates in a wet environment. It is important that any corrosion problems be reported so they can be
corrected and improvements can be made to prevent problems in the future.
b.
While corrosion is typically associated with the rusting of metals, it can also include deterioration of other
materials, such as rubber and plastic. Unusual cracking, softening, swelling, or breaking of these materials may
be a corrosion problem.
c.
If a corrosion problem is identified, it can be reported using SF Form 368. The use of key words, such as
"corrosion," "rust," "deterioration," and "cracking," will ensure that the information is identified as a CPC
problem. The form should be submitted to the address specified in DA Pam 738-750.
