About this file
This is an exhibit defining linen serviceability standards for Fort Eustis. The document establishes acceptance criteria for nine categories of linen items used in military medical and operational settings.
The standards specify detailed condition requirements for each item type. Blankets/spreads, mattress pads, flat sheets, and fitted sheets must have no dark stains, with up to three light stains acceptable up to 4-7 inches depending on location. Holes up to 1.5 inches and tears up to 7 inches on perimeter edges are acceptable with mending, but center stains and mending are prohibited on sheets. Patient gowns allow no front stains but accept light stains up to 3 inches on the back, with mending allowed for holes up to 1.5 inches and tears up to 5 inches. Laundry bags permit up to four dark stains and allow patching as needed. Scrubs and warming jackets accept discretionary ink stains and light stains up to 2 inches, with writing acceptable except profanity, and patches permitted with discretion for modesty. Surgery towels maintain the highest standard with no stains or patching allowed, though up to two snags and four towel clip holes are acceptable. All items require mended hems, seams, selvages, and replacement of missing or broken fasteners where applicable. A maximum of four repaired holes or tears is specified for blankets, spreads, mattress pads, patient gowns, and fitted sheets.
