Re: \"Tool Chits\"
I think they were universally called tool checks.
A chit was a voucher in the military, to be surrendered in exchange for food. In Oakland, a recruit's first chit was given him at his initial "bend over and spread your cheeks" party.
The guy who ran the tool crib was usually called "That S.O.B. in the tool crib".
