Title; Associated Form; and OMB 

Number: Record of Emergency Data; DD 

Form 93; OMB Control Number 0704– 

ROED. 

Needs and Uses: The DD Form 93 is 

used by Service members to designate

captured, missing or interned. It also 

shows the names and addresses of the 

person(s) the Service member desires to 

be notified in case of emergency or 

death, and designates the person 

authorized to direct disposition of the 

Service member’s remains upon death. 

For civilian personnel, it is used to

event of an emergency and/or the death 

of the member. This requirement is

the provision of benefits and 

designation of a person authorized to 

direct disposition of their remains upon 

death. Support staff are able to direct 

benefits and decisional briefings to 

those designated as beneficiaries and 

decision makers as designated by the
