Q: |
What is the LOGMARS program for the USDOD (also known a Mil-STD 129 and MIL-STD-1189)? |
A: |
In 1982, the USDOD mandated that all suppliers to the Department of Defense must use CODE 39 barcode labels. MIL-STD 129 defines the precise requirements of CODE 39, taken from the well-defined ANSI standards. MIL-STD 1189 discusses in depth how and where the labels are to be placed on shipping containers, outer pack, inner pack, and unit packaging. IMPORTANT! See also What is Mil-PRF-61002 all about? |
