      There are certain items that you can take to the quarter masters and they will clean it for you for free. As long as you have that stamped copy and the bag is still sealed they have to take it. That list has gotten smaller and smaller over the years. I always took a stiff bristled toothbrush, and a black marker with me when I cleared. Oh that's dirty, I'd pull out my toothbrush, brush the pretend dirt off if it and say, it's all clean now. It worked almost every time.

    I was in 7th Infantry Division when we got the order to inactivate; my battalion was among the first to shut down and we were given only 30 days to make it happen. At first, the CIF/equipment turn-in folks were super reasonable and even helpful as they'd heard a rumor they'd be fired once the unit shut down unless their performance was stellar. At the end of the first week, they got called to a union meeting where they found out nobody was getting downsized no matter what.
    The Monday after the meeting the turn-in civilians opened for business about an hour late and went back to being dicks rejecting gear for the most minor dings.

    I had a unusual CIF experience that strangely enough, didn't happen at CIF, but at my E-5 promotion board in S.Korea. The NCO's there said I lost my entrenchment tool with case out in the field training. I said "yes Sargent " to that. They said you're going to have to pay for that. Again I said yes Sargent. Back in 84' it costs around 35 dollars which I paid immediately after my board review thru my unit to HHQ 2ID. One final thing they said was this: If you're in the Army long enough to make the E7 board, this will bite you in the ass. I was thinking during that time: I won't be in the Army long enough to pass E5, let alone anything else. When I processed out of S.Korea, this situation didn't even come up because I already dealt with it. ONLY IN THE ARMY.

    I hope you kept your final clearance papers with the stamp on it. A friend of mines Dad was out for ten years, and got a bill from the Army saying that he owed them for a piece of TA-50 that he didnt turn in. He was able to produce his stamped clearing papers and they left him alone.

    I was lucky as hell during my exit, because the Battalion supply NCO who was on duty, happened to be good friends with one of my buddies I knew back in MOS training. Nearly half my gear was either missing or tore up when it came time to turn it in. I made off like a bandit!

    We had an ROTC cadet doing the CTLT training after advance camp. He was heading back home and I took him to CIF before I took him to the airport. They tried to pull that, "this is dirty" stuff on two items that were STILL IN THE ISSUED WRAPPERS. I looked the GS up and down (in that special way NCOs get taught to look at LTs who do something stupid, something I saw several times AS an LT) and said, "Look, this kid is going to the airport in less than 2 hours, no matter what. You can accept this gear or we'll just leave it on the ground and I'll explain it to his cadre once he gets back. But he isn't paying for it, because he has no money." We both just stared at each other for a solid minute. Finnly without a word, the GS takes the slip, checks if off, and signs it, throws it at the cadet and walks away. Same thing happened six months later with a solider who had orders from the I Corps Commanding General to get him off the post that day. Same thing, I told the GS, "Fine, YOU call the CG and tell him why this soon-to-be-civilian isn't off the post today..."

    Turned my gear in at CIF at the end of BCT. I barely washed my gear and somehow got a pass on all of it. I watched other dudes go through 5 million times before they finally got a stamp. They washed their gear a lot more often than I did. CIF is a backwards world....

    I remember when I got to CIF, they rejected every item I tried to return. I told them I am keeping all my stuff, and to charge me then. The bill was $1200, and luckily I skirted by that bill, because someone in CIF fucked up and forgot to sign something.

  • @SecurityGuy42

    I had to turn in my DCUs when I out processed. Cleaned them and had them just in case they pulled a dick move like that. They went over them and said they weren't clean because I had a stain from the preservative from new track shoes on them. Told them I had washed them they were clean. The guy called over 2 other people to join him telling me the same thing. I maintained that it was a stain (smaller than a dime that is how petty they were). They scratched at it and said (grudgingly) it was a stain and would have to throw them away for being unserviceable, for a stain smaller than a dime. I said I could keep them if they were just going to throw them. At which point they said I would be charged $30 each piece if I kept them. But it was free to me if they threw them in the trash which was sent to be incinerated so nothing would end up on the market. Just a year later other guys coming back from the sandbox got to keep their DCUs and were charged nothing for them.

    Pro tip: If you can scrape by for a bit, buy everything used at General Jackson's or equivalent surplus store off post and store your basic issue shit until it's time to turn it back into CIF. If you are ETSing, sell your used shit back to the army surplus store. Even then, CIF will probably give you some shit over a few items, even though it's in the exact condition they issued it to you in.

    Caught CIF messing up several times.
    When I was clearing in Korea (2001) they asked me for another wet weather top. Yes, ANOTHER. I asked hadashi why the hell they would have issued me 2 wet weather tops. No answer. Luckily, I had the original issue document and asked him to show me where it was. Of course, there was only 1 wet weather top.
    At Schofield Barracks CIF tried to tell me to clean my IOTV because it was stained by the red dirt. I told them it was cleaner than it was the day they gave it to me and here is the picture of me getting it issued at CIF 3 years ago as proof. They took it back.
    Also had a couple of items randomly appear on my record over the course of my career. I asked them to show me where I signed for the item. Of course, they couldn't and had to erase it.
    When I retired out of Rucker last year, they were super cool about everything.
    Take pics of all your stuff *at* CIF when you get it issued and look at your record every now and again.
