uniformed members of the Regular Air Force, Air Force Reserve, and Air National Guard, except
as noted in the publication. The authorities to waive wing/unit level requirements outside of the

accordance with AFI 33-360. These items are not waivable by the Air Force (AF). Ensure all
records created as a result of processes prescribed in this publication are maintained in accordance
with AFMAN 33-363, Management of Records, and are disposed of in accordance with the Air
