DA Form 2062, Hand Receipt/Annex Number, is a form issued by the U.S. Department of the Army (DA) and used for tracking Army property. A fillable version of the form released on January 1, 1982, can be downloaded below.
A hand receipt must be supplied to all U.S. Army unit commanders having any Army property in possession. The commander then appoints primary hand receipt holders, which will ensure that all Army property is properly recorded and listed on DA Form 2062 prior to signing it.
The DA 2062 - often confused with DD Form 2062, Record of Preparation and Disposition of Remains (Outside CONUS) - lists durable, non-expendable items assigned to servicemen or units in the U.S. Army.

The key thing to keep in mind is that DA Form 2062 is a temporary hand receipt and is not supposed to be a permanent record of property.
