DD Form 600 — Patient's Baggage Tag

Patient's Baggage Tag

Download the form

    Defense Department form, series DD, number 600. Full title: Patient's Baggage Tag. Function: Patient's Baggage Tag. Edition in force: not stated. Publisher status: not stated.

    Issued under not stated, with not stated as proponent. A DD number marks a Department-wide instrument: the same blank form serves every military department and the defense agencies, rather than one service alone.

    Users include uniformed members of any branch, DoD civilian employees, contractor personnel where authorized, and the administrative staff who process the completed record.

    Submission follows the schedule set by not stated and by local implementing procedures. This page provides the blank form for download and general orientation only.

    Available formats: none published here. The form runs unknown pages and contains approximately unknown fillable fields.

    The pdf is the primary distribution format. A fillable pdf accepts typed entries in defined field boxes and stores them in the file; a printable pdf is a flat image of the blank, meant for pen entry after printing. The distinction matters for legibility and for records that pass between offices.

    Order of completion: identification block first, substantive entries second, certification and signature last. The blank is laid out in that sequence and the sequence is not arbitrary — later entries often depend on data established in the header.

    Verify the edition date against not stated before entry. Department-level revisions replace the blank across every service simultaneously, so an old copy in a desk drawer may no longer correspond to current field numbering.

    Field-level instructions appear on the form itself and in not stated. The directive is the controlling text.

    The completed document moves to the office named in not stated or in local guidance. A retained copy is conventional practice.

    Related documents are located by series and number. DD forms sit in a single Department-wide sequence, so a form referenced inside DD Form 600 is normally found by its number alone, without regard to service.

    A DD number and a DA number may appear in the same instruction without being related. DA forms belong to the Army alone; DD forms belong to the Department and are administered at Department level. The sequences are independent.

    Forms are reissued for several reasons: directive revision, changed data requirements, updated notice language. Confirming not stated at the moment of download covers the risk.

    The material here is descriptive. Nothing on the page constitutes legal or procedural advice, and no statement here determines whether a submitted form will be accepted. Such questions go to not stated, a servicing administrative office, or the authority identified in not stated.
