This publication has been substantially revised and must be completely reviewed. Major changes include the changing publication from an Air Force Manual (AFMAN) to DAFMAN; functionally realigned AM guidance, procedures, and programs into a single publication; complied with Secretary of the Air Force policy memorandums to improve clarity, reduce compliance statements, and ensure waiver approvals and authorities reside at the lowest acceptable level.
