During a transfer of MILPROP, accountability follows the asset and moves with it to the new owner. The gaining unit becomes responsible for the items, and the property records are updated to reflect the relocation, creating an auditable trail for custody, maintenance, and liability. Merely relocating the item without updating records leaves accountability unclear and can lead to loss, misuse, or financial discrepancies. So, accountability shifting to the gaining unit and being supported by records indicating relocation is the correct understanding.
