The Clothing Initial Issue Point (CIIP) is co-located with the 30th AG (reception) BN. Both are located at the Sand Hill area of Ft. Benning, Ga.
TRADOC has the responsibility for being the Army's executive agent for training Initial Entry Training (IET) Soldiers. Five (5) Clothing Initial Issue Points (CIIP) have the responsibility for issuing clothing bag items to male and female Soldiers as approved by the Chief of Staff, Army. The CIIPs are located at Forts Benning, Jackson, Knox, Leonard Wood, and Sill. The goal is for all Soldiers to receive 100% of their clothing bag their first time through the CIIP.

Issues and operation of the CIIP are governed by (but not limited to) the following Publications:
The CIIP will issue IET Soldiers their full clothing bag issue upon arrival to Ft. Benning's 30th AG reception Bn. This is done in 2 phases. Phase I is the issue of all clothing and equipment needed by the Soldier, to start his/her training. If a IET Soldier arrives after duty hours, or too late in the day to go through a full Phase I issue, there is a Night issue that will get the Soldier all he/she is required to get through the night and the next morning before processing through Phase I issue.
The Night issue consists of:
The Phase I issue process consists of:
The Soldiers arrive at the CIIP at 1300 each work day and are lined up in roster number sequence. They are filed in the room seated from front to rear filling all seats; they are given an IRM scan form and then briefed. They will also receive (7) socks green, (7) sock liner black, (1) rigger belt, (1) pair of goggles, (3) flags, (3) US Army tabs, (1) identification tag silencer, and (1) ID chain. The Briefing consists of the issue procedures, the items that they will receive, exchange procedures, maintenance of the uniforms, and the service that they can expect to receive. Note: The Phase I Soldiers are briefed by the 30th AG processors.
They are then instructed to remove their shoes, and to undress from the waist up, leaving only their shirt next to the body on, placing everything in their duffle bag. They will then proceed through the listed stations where they will be fitted and receive the items they will need to complete training. During the issue process of Phase I items, some of these items fit snuggly; therefore it is required that the Soldiers have already had all their medical processing and haircuts, and also have been able to take care of personal hygiene, since some Soldiers will be trying on many different sizes of the same item to ensure proper fit.
The Phase I stations:
This process is done on the first full day of processing, to ensure that the Soldier gets a chance to wear the equipment and clothing to ensure proper fit and serviceability prior to shipping to their training unit. This allows for seasoned professionals to view the fit and wear of the uniform and clothing, and the troops to wear the boots to ensure proper fit, without causing blisters. If there is a problem with any of the issue prior to shipping to the training units, the individual can return to the CIIP with 30th AG processors, to exchange equipment / clothing / boots for the proper fitting ones.
The CIIP will issue IET Soldiers their full clothing bag issue upon arrival to Ft. Benning's 30th AG reception Bn. This is done in 2 phases. Phase II is the issue of all clothing and equipment that will make up each Soldier's dress uniform or Class "A" uniform. This phase is usually done during the 5th or 6th week for Basic Combat Trainees (BCT) and One Station Unit Trainees (OSUT).
On October 1, 2010, the Army transitioned from the Army Green Dress Uniform to the New Army Service Uniform (ASU). The CIIP has also transitioned and all Phase II issues following the aforementioned start date will be of the new ASU.
The CIIP is only authorized to issue the ASU to the new IET Soldier (after 1 Oct 10) and to the Drill Sergeants identified by the Brigade S4's and approved by the Brigade Commanders.
Phase II Issues are scheduled on the Freeze Data by G3 DOT (706-545-4764) with the exception of special circumstances.
The Phase II issue process consists of:
Personnel are brought in by alphabetical order in PT uniform with black sock liners. As the Soldiers enter the building, they receive an IRM scan form and (2) alteration tag(s). Each individual will be issued (1) necktie, (1) belt, and (2) white t-shirts. They will then be seated in order to fill out the alteration tags. At this time, all personnel are measured and processed into Station 1.
