Which supply class covers material to support non-military program?

• A. Class IX (Repair parts)
• B. Class X (Material to support non-military program)
• C. Class II (Rations and fuel)
• D. Class VII (Medical supplies)

Answer: (B)

In Army supply, items are grouped by purpose to organize procurement and distribution. When the need is for material that supports nonmilitary programs, you’re looking at a class designated for civilian or development efforts rather than combat or mission-specific needs. That class is the one defined for material to support nonmilitary programs. It covers supplies used to back civil government activities, humanitarian projects, and other noncombat initiatives funded through Army logistics.

The other options map to military-focused needs: repair parts keep equipment ready for operations, rations and fuel supply the soldiers, and medical supplies support health services for personnel. Because they’re tied to direct military use rather than nonmilitary programs, they don’t fit the requirement.
