number, or modification for change order number, when required, and the name and address of
the prime contractor, including ZIP Code.
(c) Whenever supplies and equipment are shipped from a subcontractor, only the name

priority (TP) I and 2 shipments shall be marked on a red or blue bordered DD Form 1387

Blue bordered labels or tags with blue numerals shall be used to identify TP 2 shipments. When
the DD Form 1387 is not available at the vendor's plant and the time required to obtain it would

label or tag of the same size may be used provided; 1) the data content is the same as DD Form
1387; 2) red or blue border as appropriate, is applied; 3) approval is obtained from the
contracting officer. Shipments to be moved under TP 3 shall be marked on the plain DD Form
1387 . As an alternate for TP 3 shipments, military shipping activities may use the computer
generated label or a plain tag, whereas contractors may use any type of label or tag readily
available at time of shipment. Labels shall be securely affixed in place with water-resistant
adhesive. Labels for level A shipments shall be waterproofed by the appropriate waterproofing
compound. The domestic address shall be composed of the transportation control number
(TCN), prefixed by TCN

Delivery Date (RDD) or expedited handling code, project code (when applicable), and
