Who manages DTAAG?

• A. Armed forces medical examiners system (AFMES), and Division of forensics toxicology (FORTOX).
• B. Base Weather Office and Fire Department.
• C. EOD and a munitions specialist.
• D. Squadron commander.

Answer: (A)

DoD-wide forensic toxicology oversight governs DTAAG, and this function is handled by the Armed Forces Medical Examiner System and its Division of Forensic Toxicology. AFMES provides the medical examiner framework for DoD investigations, while FORTOX specializes in forensic toxicology, coordinating toxicology testing, sample handling, chain of custody, quality assurance, and reporting across the services. This combination gives a centralized, standardized approach to drug testing and toxicology analysis for the entire DoD, which is why they are the appropriate managers for DTAAG. The other options involve local or operational units (weather/fire, EOD and munitions, or a squadron commander) that lack the specialized forensic and medical-examiner authority required to oversee a DoD-wide drug testing and toxicology program.
