AMMO 18 COMPREHENSIVE EXAM ACTUAL QUESTIONS
AND ANSWERS SURE A+
✔✔Category III - Security Rick Categories - ✔✔Moderate Sensitivity
Examples: HELLFIRE missile, incendiary grenades and fuses for high-explosive
grenades, blasting caps, supplementary charges, bulk explosives, detonating cord,
warheads for sensitive missiles and rockets, and .50 caliber and larger ammo with
explosive-filled projectiles
✔✔Category IV - Security Rick Categories - ✔✔Low Sensitivity
Examples: Illumination, smoke, and CS grenades, incendiary destroyers, riot control
agents (excluding pepper spray), precision-guided munition warheads over 50 lbs.,
ammunition with non-explosive projectiles, and fuzes
✔✔Controlled Item Inventory Code (CIIC) - ✔✔used along with SRCs to designate the
degree of security required for high-risk supply items
** Can be found on NALC Data Sheet
✔✔Which CIIC does "Non-nuclear missiles and rockets in a ready-to-fire configuration"
fall under? - ✔✔Cat I - Highest Sensitivity
✔✔Which security component is required for Category I and II storage facilities that are
NOT continuously manned or under constant surveillance? - ✔✔Intrusion Detection
System (IDS)
✔✔Mass Explosion HC/D 1.1 - Fire Prevention - ✔✔Sound the alarm and attempt to
extinguish the fire if it's in an early stage
✔✔Fragments HC/D 1.2 - Fire Prevention - ✔✔Do not fight the fire unless attempting a
rescue
✔✔Mass Fire HC/D 1.3 - Fire Prevention - ✔✔Fight the fire if explosives are not directly
involved
✔✔Moderate Fire HC/D 1.4 - Fire Prevention - ✔✔Fight the fire

Hazard: extremely high heat, highly toxic fumes
Wear - Set 3 PPE PC3 (White)
✔✔Material potentially presenting an explosive hazard (MPPEH) - ✔✔is material whose
explosive danger is NOT known--it may or may not contain explosive material
Common MPPEH items:
Munitions and munitions debris, targets, and materials collected during routine
operational range clearance or munitions response
Used munitions containers and packaging material
Material and equipment (tanks, piping, ducting, wood, concrete, etc.) used during
munitions production, maintenance, demilitarization, or disposal
Soil or other environmental material contaminated with hazardous concentrations of
explosives
✔✔Not Material potentially presenting an explosive hazard (MPPEH) - ✔✔Articles,
equipment, buildings, or other items that have never been contaminated with explosives
and have never contained ammunition are not considered MPPEH.
