Who conducts accident investigations (ground and air)?

• A. Army Aeromedical Activity (AAMA)
• B. USAARL
• C. DAM
• D. USACRC

Answer: (D)

The key idea is that accident investigations across both ground and air within the Army are conducted by the United States Army Combat Readiness Center. USACRC acts as the central safety authority, responsible for leading mishap investigations, determining root causes, and recommending corrective actions to prevent recurrence. It coordinates the investigation process, collects and analyzes data from the units involved, and ensures consistent reporting and follow-up for all types of incidents. Other groups like the Army Aeromedical Activity, USAARL, and medical directorates support safety and medical aspects but do not run formal mishap investigations. So, USACRC is the organization that conducts these accident investigations.
