What do you all think on the newest DA Form 1687 clarification ?

I think that this change is needed in some aspect as far as the conversion to a 'digital army' but why a wet signature? If we are to digitally sign the DA1687, why must we also sign with a handwritten signature? It makes things that much more difficult. I liked the idea I having the capability to digitally sign because you can email it to all parties and they do not have to be near to complete the DA1687. Now it takes extra effort the meet the requirements as someone who is nt present during the signing will have to print the form, sign, scan it, email it: and eventually it may have to be printed and signed again which reduces the quality of the form.

A signature card authorizing certain personnel to recieve and order supplies allows for the signature and initials of the personnel. While its probably rarely used for the purpose of validating a given signature versus the base one given on the 1687; is this not what its intent was?
Digital signatures, while convenient, are really only good for digital documents. As soon as its printed out, it really doesn't matter if its digital or hand written.
If you have skills with a computer its not that hard to forge a digital signature block onto a form put into say Microsoft Powerpoint, Adobe Professional.

Im currently working on getting mine updated. The purpose oc it is to get a jumpstart on requirements to digitally sign everything and prep for GCSS. With that in mind. I think its not the greatest idea in the world. Its a pain enough to catch up with those on the card to get their signature let alone writing up the delegation portion to the agency's liking. The problems Im running into are:
1. Marines dont understand the reason for a signature card. They question it. They're version is much different.
2. Emailing it out to sections. Have to wait for people to come off leave and if they dont have an email account theres another problem.
3. Cant Hand Carry it to the sections to get it digitally signed.
4. Having to wait for the section to email it along to its people then back to me so that it doesnt overlap.
Those are just a few. There was nothing wrong with the way it was. Its just another added task. As if a supply guy doesnt have enough to do but now has to chase people down via email now too. If it aint broke, lets fix it.
