CDC 3S071 Volume 3. Personnel Career Field, Edit Code 02

The question is asking for the category that is not a deployment availability code (DAV) category in contingency, exercise, or deployment duty status reporting. The options provided are Time, Legal, Physical, and Personal. Time, Legal, and Physical can all be DAV categories as they relate to factors that may affect an individual's availability for deployment. However, Personal is not a DAV category as it refers to personal reasons that may not be categorized under any specific DAV category. Therefore, the correct answer is Personal.

The personal information that may not be released for deceased casualties is any information on the member's family. This includes details such as the names, addresses, and contact information of their family members. The other options listed, such as pay date, military base pay, allowances, age, date of birth, and home of record, are not restricted and can be released.

For short-notice assignments of 90 calendar days or less until the report no later than date (RNLTD), both the Career Development element and unit notification periods are reduced to 3 calendar days.

The Unit Personnel Management Roster (UPMR) contains information about personnel assigned to a unit, including their position numbers, duty Air Force specialty codes (DAFSC), authorized grades, functional account codes, personnel accounting symbols, and required security clearance levels. This document serves as a comprehensive record of the unit's personnel and their qualifications and clearances. The other options listed do not provide the same level of detail and scope as the UPMR.

The correct answer is Air Force Career Development Academy (AFCDA) because HQ AFPC sends a request for career development course (CDC) reference material for each promotion eligible Airman to AFCDA.

Service members who adopt a child may be reimbursed reasonable and necessary adoption expenses, per adoptive child, up to $2,000. This means that if a service member adopts a child, they can submit receipts for adoption expenses such as legal fees, medical expenses, and travel costs up to a maximum of $2,000, and they will be reimbursed for these expenses.

If there is a permanent change of station (PCS) ineligibility condition and there is no indication a waiver or exception has been granted, the military personnel section (MPS) will reclama the assignment and not forward rip. This means that they will reject or dispute the assignment and not send the request for personnel action to the Air Force Personnel Center (AFPC).

When awarding an enlisted Air Force specialty code (AFSC), special duty submission is not a criteria for eligibility. The AFSC is typically awarded based on factors such as retraining, initial classification, and downgrade or withdrawal. Special duty submission refers to the process of applying for and being selected for a specific special duty assignment within the Air Force, which is separate from the AFSC eligibility criteria.

When making a recommendation on a tendered resignation as a result of a pending court-martial, expense should rarely be the deciding factor. This means that the cost involved in the situation should not heavily influence the decision-making process. Other factors such as timeliness, availability, and embarrassment may be more important considerations in this context.

HQ AFPC implements the approved promotion program through a fair and impartial process to ensure the officer corps has confidence in the integrity of the selection process. This means that HQ AFPC is responsible for overseeing and conducting promotions in a way that is unbiased and transparent, instilling trust and confidence among officers in the fairness of the selection process.

The correct answer is the unit manpower document (UMD). This document provides information on the authorized positions that a unit can recruit, train, and promote to in both wartime and peacetime situations. It helps in managing the personnel within the unit and ensuring that the right individuals are assigned to the appropriate positions. The UMD is an essential tool for effective personnel management within a unit.

Numbered Air Force does not have the authority under the Air Force memorialization program to name streets, buildings, rooms, and facilities. The other options, Major command, Wing command, and Air Force Chief of Staff's office, have the authority to name these elements under the program.

A progressively downward trend in performance ratings is not a reason that warrants an administrative separation. This means that even if an individual's performance ratings have been consistently declining over a period of time, it is not sufficient grounds for them to be separated administratively. However, parenthood, erroneous enlistment, and entry-level performance and conduct can all be valid reasons for administrative separation.

In the military personnel data system (MilPDS), code 2 is used to reflect a member on a control roster. This code would be applied when performing system updates to accurately indicate that a member is on a control roster. It is crucial to ensure the correct code is applied for the correct incident, duration, and for the correct person to maintain accurate and up-to-date records in the MilPDS.

Assignment availability codes (AAC) are used to indicate the availability of military personnel for assignment. Adverse actions are disciplinary actions taken against military personnel for misconduct or poor performance. AAC 12 indicates that the individual is under investigation for misconduct, while AAC 16 indicates that the individual is pending disciplinary action or has received a disciplinary action. Therefore, both AAC 12 and AAC 16 are associated with adverse actions.

The Initial Duty Assignment (IDA) worksheet is used to outline the Military Personnel Section (MPS) requirements to ensure personnel are assigned a valid position number and to facilitate timely and accurate input of current data after a member's arrival. This document helps in managing the personnel's initial duty assignments and ensures that the necessary information is recorded and updated correctly. The UPMR, UMD, and Alpha roster may contain personnel information, but they do not specifically outline the MPS requirements for assigning position numbers and facilitating timely and accurate data input.

When a commander determines that a person's absence is involuntary and there is insufficient evidence to declare the person deceased, the casualty status is known as Missing (Non-hostile). This means that the person is missing but it is not believed to be due to hostile action. They may have become lost, gone AWOL, or encountered some other non-hostile situation that resulted in their absence. The status of Missing (Non-hostile) allows for continued search and rescue efforts to locate and recover the individual.

The installation commander must obtain conclusive evidence before reporting the death of an individual. This is because the installation commander is responsible for overseeing all operations and activities on the military installation, including the reporting of deaths. They have the authority to ensure that the information is accurate and verified before it is reported. The Force Support Squadron commander, Air Force Casualty Service Branch chief, and Major command staff may play a role in the process, but the ultimate responsibility lies with the installation commander.

The correct answer is "primary." When determining the Air Force specialty code (AFSC) that an individual is most qualified to perform in, their primary specialty is considered. This specialty reflects their skill level, experience, complexity, education and training, equipment, and interests. The primary specialty is the main area of expertise for the individual.

Summary court-martial (SCM) only tries enlisted service members. General court-martial (GCM) can try both enlisted service members and officers, while special court-martial (SPCM) can try both enlisted service members and officers, but with less severe penalties than a GCM. Therefore, the correct answer is that only SCM tries enlisted service members.

Functional leadership is not considered a level of leadership in the total force development program. The program focuses on developing leadership at the tactical, strategic, and operational levels. Functional leadership refers to the expertise and knowledge required to perform specific functions within an organization, rather than a specific level of leadership.

The correct answer is Air Force Military Personnel Testing System (AFMPTS). This system is used in the Air Force to select and classify individuals based on their skills and knowledge in various areas. It is specifically designed for military personnel and is used to assess their abilities for promotion and advancement within the Air Force. It helps in identifying the most qualified individuals for different positions and ranks within the military.

Casualty reporting is an important responsibility function that falls under the command's jurisdiction. As the commanding officer, they are responsible for overseeing and managing all aspects of their unit, including casualty reporting. This involves promptly and accurately reporting any injuries, deaths, or missing personnel within the command. By having command as the correct answer, it implies that casualty reporting is a crucial task that requires the authority and oversight of the commanding officer to ensure effective and efficient communication and coordination during critical situations.

Personal information such as gross pay and basic allowance for housing may not be released without permission for ill or injured casualties. This information is considered private and should not be disclosed without the individual's consent.

The correct answer is "is armed and assigned duties to protect and/or guard nuclear weapons." This is because the question asks for an attribute that a military member must not possess in order to obtain a critical PRP position. While possessing access and technical knowledge, being designated as a certifying official, and having the ability to cause the launch or use of a nuclear weapon are all necessary attributes for a critical PRP position, being armed and assigned duties to protect and/or guard nuclear weapons is not a requirement.

The correct answer is Control Air Force Specialty Code (CAFSC). In the Weighted Airmen Promotion System (WAPS), Airmen compete and test under their CAFSC. This code represents the specific job or career field in which an Airman is trained and qualified to perform. It is used to determine eligibility and qualification for promotions to the ranks of SSgt, TSgt, and MSgt. The CAFSC is an important factor in the WAPS process as it reflects an Airman's level of expertise and experience in their respective career field.

The Air Force Inspector General office is responsible for including the voting program as an annual item for review, evaluating its effectiveness, and ensuring compliance with Department of Defense (DOD) regulations and public law.

The correct answer is Promotion file build. This action begins with the announcement by AFPC/DPSOE via a Personnel Delivery Memorandum (PSDM) with processing instructions for that upcoming cycle. This indicates that the process of building promotion files for eligible individuals will begin, which is an important step in the promotion cycle.

The Career Development element typically publishes permanent change of station (PCS) orders 60 days prior to departure. This allows individuals enough time to make necessary arrangements and preparations for their move.

The Career Development element is responsible for identifying all assigned officers and verifying their eligibility status for promotion. This element plays a crucial role in assessing the qualifications and potential of officers for promotion within the Air Force. It ensures that only eligible officers are considered for promotion, helping to maintain the integrity and fairness of the promotion process.

The Force Support Squadron is responsible for representing the reviewing official (RO) on personnel reliability program (PRP) matters. They also appoint an installation monitor to assist in PRP duties.

The casualty assistance representative is responsible for ensuring that all casualty services personnel at serviced geographically separated units (GSU) and casualty augmentation support team (CAST) members are trained to handle supplemental instructions, messages for reporting casualties, and notification. They are specifically trained to provide support and assistance to families of deceased or injured service members, and their role includes coordinating and facilitating casualty reporting and notification processes.

The Chief, Casualty Matters Division is responsible for the program objectives and the management and operation of the Air Force Casualty Program. This role oversees the overall functioning of the program and ensures that the objectives are met.

The Secretary of the Air Force may directly discharge an officer that is considered a threat to good order and discipline without retaining for six months. This means that the Secretary has the authority to remove an officer from their position if they are deemed to pose a risk to the overall discipline and functioning of the Air Force. This power is given specifically to the Secretary of the Air Force and not to other officials such as the Air Force Chief of Staff, Secretary of Defense, or Joint Chief of Staff.

For Duty Status Whereabouts Unknown (DUSTWUN) and Missing casualties in peacetime, it is important not to share personal information that pertains to age and date of birth. This is because sharing this information could potentially compromise the privacy and security of the individual involved. It is important to respect their confidentiality and only share information that is necessary for official purposes.

The outbound assignment technician has 7 calendar days to verify the member's eligibility after receiving an assignment notification report on individual personnel (RIP) from HQ AFPC.

The Force Management Operations element has the authority to authorize the use of personnel outside their control Air Force specialty code (CAFSC) up to 130 days in a 12-month period.

Oracle Training Administration (OTA) is a system used for managing and organizing formal training requirements. It helps with controlling the training process, planning the training sessions, and allocating funds for training activities. However, it is not used for establishing the training requirements. This means that OTA does not determine or set the initial training needs for an organization.

The initial relocation briefing is conducted within 15 calendar days after the Assignment Notification report on individual personnel (RIP) is forwarded to the unit commander.

The responsibility of coordinating with the security manager to ensure personnel reliability program (PRP) personnel security investigation (PSI) requests are submitted in a timely and accurate manner, and followed up for adjudication falls under the unit PRP monitor. This individual is responsible for overseeing the PRP within their specific unit and ensuring that all necessary security measures are being taken. The reviewing official (RO), certifying official (CO), and installation PRP monitor do not have the specific responsibility mentioned in the question.

The correct answer is Military Personnel Section (MPS). The MPS is responsible for designating the primary Air Force specialty code (PAFSC) for each officer and enlisted Airman. They handle the personnel management and administrative functions related to the career development and progression of Air Force personnel. This includes assigning and updating specialty codes based on individual qualifications and career goals. The MPS plays a crucial role in ensuring that the right personnel are assigned to the right positions and have the necessary skills and qualifications for their roles in the Air Force.

The certifying official is responsible for making judgments on the reliability factors of each individual identified for personnel reliability program (PRP) duties. This role involves assessing the trustworthiness and dependability of personnel who have access to sensitive information or perform critical tasks. The certifying official is tasked with ensuring that individuals meet the necessary requirements and standards to be deemed reliable for PRP duties.

In unusual circumstances, when it is necessary to honor deceased military members from other branches of the military (Army, Navy, or Marine Corps), the approval authority is the Air Force Chief of Staff. This means that if the Air Force wants to honor a deceased member from another branch, they would need to seek approval from the Air Force Chief of Staff. The Secretary of the Air Force, Secretary of Defense, and Joint Chief of Staff do not have the authority to approve such honors in these circumstances.

The correct answer is Air Force Chief of Staff. In the Air Force memorialization program, all requests to name medical facilities must be approved by the Air Force Chief of Staff. This indicates that the highest authority within the Air Force is responsible for approving these requests, rather than the Joint Chief of Staff, Secretary of Defense, or Secretary of the Air Force.

Changes to the control Air Force specialty code (CAFSC) other than initial, retraining, normal skill-level upgrade, and special duty identifier (SDI) actions are reviewed for propriety by Air Force Personnel Center (AFPC) assignment managers. These managers are responsible for ensuring that the changes are appropriate and in line with the needs and requirements of the Air Force. They have the expertise and authority to review and approve or disapprove the changes, making them the most suitable choice for this task.

Within 15 work days following the review of a permanent decertification, the reviewing official (RO) notifies the individual and certifying official (CO) of the findings and conclusion.

Once the unit commander receives the assignment report on individual personnel (RIP) on a member, he or she has 14 calendar days before the RIP is required back to the Military Personnel Section (MPS).

The major command ensures that squadron commanders are provided casualty services information and training during the Commander's Orientation Program. This is because the major command is responsible for overseeing and coordinating the activities of multiple squadrons within a specific area of responsibility. They have the authority and resources to ensure that squadron commanders have access to the necessary information and training to effectively handle casualty services.

The Secretary of the Air Force (SECAF) issues written instructions to officer selection boards to announce competitive categories, promotion zones, eligibility, and selection criteria. This individual holds the authority and responsibility to provide guidance and direction to the selection boards, ensuring a fair and transparent process for officer selection and promotion within the Air Force.

The major command staff has the responsibility to ensure that each base Installation Voting Assistance Officer (IVAO) completes a Federal Voting Assistance Program (FVAP) designated training workshop or media training course. This means that it is the duty of the higher-level command staff to ensure that the IVAOs at each base receive the necessary training to fulfill their role in the voting assistance program.
