                            REQUESTING RECORDS

       Records are retrieved by name or by some other personal 
   identifier. It is therefore especially important for expeditious 
   service when requesting a record that particular attention be 
   provided to the Notification and/or Access Procedures of the 
   particular record system involved so as to furnish the required 
   personal identifiers, or any other pertinent personal information as 
   may be required to locate and retrieve the record.

                           BLANKET ROUTINE USES

       Certain `blanket routine uses' of the records have been 
   established that are applicable to every record system maintained 
   within the Department of Defense unless specifically stated otherwise 
   within a particular record system. These additional blanket routine 
   uses of the records are published below only once in the interest of 
   simplicity, economy and to avoid redundancy.

                       LAW ENFORCEMENT ROUTINE USE

       In the event that a system of records maintained by this 
   component to carry out its functions indicates a violation or 
   potential violation of law, whether civil, criminal or regulatory in 
   nature, and whether arising by general statute or by regulation, rule 
   or order issued pursuant thereto, the relevant records in the system 
   of records may be referred, as a routine use, to the appropriate 
   agency, whether Federal, state, local, or foreign, charged with the 
   responsibility of investigating or prosecuting such violation or 
   charged with enforcing or implementing the statute, rule, regulation 
   or order issued pursuant thereto.
