Trying to do the right thing and turn in my ocie that I didn’t sign for. However here is the issue there was a shortage of items and I didn’t receive everything they said I did (even though they can show I signed for it). Can someone help me out or point me in the right direction?

Yes I can, pay the charge, take the learned lesson, move on, focus your energy on things you can effect or change on the way to your new duty station.

I will tell you the same thing I told everyone who ever said "I didn't get that!" You signed for it...so yes you did! If you didn't get it you're a fool for signing for it. The familiar refrain of "I signed for it but never got it!" Was ALWAYS sung by Soldiers in my unit who received their OCIE from my predecessor (I was the AGR Supply SGT)

Never sign for anything you do not receive. I'll say it again (and pay attention people) NEVER SIGN FOR ANYTHING YOU DO NOT RECEIVE!!! Dont accept a promise of "well I am out of it now but I'll get it for you next week...just sign the paperwork," Updating the paperwork is simple and fast. IF ITS NOT THERE DONT SIGN FOR IT!

If they can’t show that you signed for it then they can NOT charge you for it. It’s in AR 735-5

Yes, or you can refuse and they do a flipl , submit sworn statement and any substantiating records to your supply sgt, but if youve signed then you should be tracking your records better, if you didnt sign, then may have a case...depends alot on history

If you signed for it and didn't get it then you are dead meat. If you didn't get it and didn't sign then you are safe. Guess it's a trip to the surplus store, or see if you can swap sometime extra for something needed.

You can pull your clothing record off of AKO. Go to the tab that says my clothing print the record and see if you signed for the item. If you accidents signed for the item I’m afraid you own it
