  • DSCA Policy Memo 25-63 Manpower Travel Data Sheets on Service Supply Complete Lines Using Security Assistance Manpower Requirements System Data has been posted.

    This memorandum exempts the Air Force from including Manpower Travel Data Sheets (MTDS) on Foreign Military Sales (FMS) case lines with manpower under specific circumstances. This is based on the Air Force generated and validated system (Security Assistance Manpower Requirements System (SAMRS)) process which vetted manpower costs during case development. This exemption is limited to Air Force FMS case lines developed using SAMRS and the line is reconciled for closure (i.e. Service Supply Complete (SSC)).
