Unclassified Summary of Report No. DODIG‑2025‑055, “Audit of Munitions Storage in Alaska, Hawaii, and Japan” and Report No. DODIG‑2025‑119, “Audit of Munitions Storage on Guam”

The objective of the audits was to determine the extent to which the DoD stored and secured munitions that support U.S. Indo‑Pacific Command (USINDOPACOM) operations in accordance with applicable safety and security policies.1 During the “Audit of Munitions Storage in Alaska, Hawaii, and Japan,” recovery efforts for a May 2023 typhoon prevented the inclusion of DoD munitions storage areas (MSAs) on Guam in the scope. Therefore, we completed the original objective over a series of two audits: the DODIG‑2025‑055, “Audit of Munitions Storage in Alaska, Hawaii, and Japan,” December 18, 2024, and the DODIG‑2025‑119, “Audit of Munitions Storage on Guam,” June 30, 2025.

This report provides an overview of the DoD’s Agency-Wide material weaknesses that are caused by DoD management’s inability to design and implement proper internal controls. These material weaknesses can hinder DoD operational effectiveness and prevent the DoD from achieving an unmodified (clean) audit opinion.
