LOPG Page 3 is used to verify which items?

• A. Rank and name
• B. Payroll number
• C. Equipment on board
• D. UIC and date reported on board

Answer: (D)

The key idea here is how the page is used to confirm who is with which unit and when they were officially on the ship. Page 3 of the LOPG is the place where the Unit Identification Code (UIC) and the date each person reported on board are recorded. These two items provide the essential cross-check: the UIC identifies the exact unit the person is assigned to, and the date reported on board confirms when they joined the vessel or activity. Verifying these two details helps ensure the individual’s assignment and pay records align with the actual crew on board.

Other items like rank and name, payroll number, or equipment on board are tracked in different sections or documents. Rank and name identify the person, but they don’t by themselves verify unit identity or on-boarding dates. Payroll numbers relate to pay processing, not the ship’s roster, and equipment on board relates to inventory, not personnel identity or assignment. Page 3 focuses specifically on the UIC and the date reported on board to anchor the personnel to the correct unit and dating for payroll/records purposes.
