Which appropriation title corresponds to symbol 021Y2020?

• A. Military Construction, Army
• B. Operation and Maintenance, Army
• C. Construction (Civil Works)
• D. Operation and Maintenance (Civil Works)

Answer: (B)

Appropriation symbols group funding by purpose and the agency involved. The sequence 021Y2020 is designated for the Army’s operating budget, which is the Operation and Maintenance, Army category. This funding covers the day-to-day expenses that keep Army units ready and sites functioning—things like facilities upkeep, supplies, and ongoing activities necessary for daily operations. It isn’t the construction-focused funding that builds or improves facilities (that would be Military Construction, Army) or civil works projects managed under Civil Works (which have their own Construction or O&M for Civil Works). So 021Y2020 aligns with Operation and Maintenance, Army, making it the best match.
