I have seen a few posts on this in the past few weeks, and just kinda thought it had gone away, I was not at all sure of the validity of it in the first place, but as the old saying goes "All things will out in time"! This is a quote from 2nd amendment group on Yahoo and a link to a pic of the order. It is my understanding that this has since been rescinded, but is still being pursued by some commanders, you be the judge.
Gentlemen,

*I am an 11B (infantry) currently assigned
at **_Fort_**_ _**_Campbell_ **. I live off post, with my firearms(which
I don't bring on post for any reason). A very frightening thing happened
at work yesterday. I was ordered to fill out a list containing my
firearm information. This included make, model, caliber, and serial
number of all firearms I currently posses. In addition, I was also
required to list registration information, location of all weapons
individually, and information regarding any CCW permits I posses. If you
are like me, then the people you work with know you have firearms. So I
had to list at least _some_. I tried to talk to my 1sg (who is normally
aproachable through proper channels) to find out what this is for, and I
was basically told, "I don't give a !&@%, just put your info on the
form." I don't know how high this goes, but I am hearing that this is
going on in other units at _Fort Campbell_ as well. It just seems a
little coincidental to me that within 90 days: the most anti-firearm
President in history is inaugurated, some of the nastiest anti-firearm
laws are put on the table in Washington, and then the Army comes around
wanting what amounts to a registration on all firearms, even if they are
off post, and doesn't provide any reason or purpose as to why. I fear
something really nasty is blowing in the wind here. I have been in
almost 8 years, and never have any of my units asked for this
information. If any of you out there have any info as to what all this
crap is about please chime in. Otherwise consider yourself warned. I
have already posted this on every other firearm forum I am a member of
to get the word out.*

I wonder how this will affect a person's opportunity for promotion.

This kind of stuff will certainly create a dividing line between dems, and gop in the military.
