From the document: "It is DoD policy that: a. The information and intellectual capital contained in DoD records will be managed as national assets. Effective and efficient management of records provides the information foundation for decision making at all levels, mission planning and operations, personnel and veteran services, legal inquiries, business continuity, and preservation of U.S. history. b. Records, regardless of media or security classification, will be created, maintained and used, disposed, and preserved to document the transaction of business and mission in wartime."
