Who approves transfers?

Who approves transfers?

• A. CO approves transfers
• B. CG-41 Approves transfers
• C. MALS approves transfers
• D. CG-711 Directs the transfer

Answer: (D)

Asset transfers are governed by the formal directive that specifies who can authorize and direct moves of equipment between units. The office that issues that directive holds the directing authority to initiate and approve a transfer. In this context, CG-711 is the office that directs the transfer, meaning the transfer is initiated and authorized by the policy from CG-711 rather than by a local Commanding Officer or by other units. The local CO executes under policy but does not independently approve cross-unit transfers; CG-41 and MALS do not hold the directing authority for this action. So the proper source of approval and direction for the transfer is the directive from CG-711.
