An INSCOM responsibility

(3) The results of a command inspection are recorded on DA Form 2769-R (Cryptofacility Inspection

Report). These results are maintained on file until the results of the next command inspection are received. DA

Form 2769-R is shown in Figures 7-1 and 7-2.

(4) Discrepancies discovered during the command inspection must be reconciled within 30 days after

receipt of the inspection report. A reply by endorsement is forwarded through command channels to the

command inspector.

c. An INSCOM responsibility is to provide technical assistance to Army activities having prime

COMSEC accounts. To do this, INSCOM conducts inspections of selected critical Army COMSEC accounts.

These include subaccounts and hand receipts as needed. However, not all COMSEC custodians can expect a visit

from an INSCOM inspection team.

(1) Activities that are subject to an INSCOM inspection include:

(a) COMSEC logistic support facilities.

(b) Key distribution and generation centers.
