QASAS - Quality Assurance Specialist (Ammunition Surveillance) - Civilian

The Quality Assurance Specialist (Ammunition Surveillance), or QASAS, is a critical civilian role within the U.S. Army Materiel Command, established during World War II to ensure the safety and reliability of military munitions. QASAS specialists oversee the storage, inspection, testing, and handling of ammunition stockpiles, preventing accidents and ensuring combat readiness. Over the decades, their mission has expanded globally, supporting U.S. and allied operations by developing standards, training personnel, and responding to ammunition incidents. Today, QASAS civilians continue to play a vital role in sustaining the Army’s ammunition supply chain and safeguarding both personnel and resources.
