Which document is used to authorize personnel changes at billet and LIN level after HQDA guidance?

• A. TOE
• B. MTOE
• C. TDA
• D. MOP

Answer: (B)

When HQDA directs changes to how a unit is staffed, the authority to authorize those changes at the level of specific billets and their LINs comes from the Modified Table of Organization and Equipment. The MTOE sits as the adjusted version of the baseline structure (the TOE) and explicitly captures the authorized positions, their grades, and the line item numbers associated with manpower and equipment. This is the document that gets updated in response to HQDA guidance so the unit can fill or reallocate positions and align with mission requirements. The TOE provides the standard framework, but it’s the MTOE that contains the endorsed changes to staffing and LINs. Nonstandard units use TDA, and the MOP isn’t the approved mechanism for adjusting personnel authorizations in this context, so the Modified Table of Organization and Equipment is the correct reference.
