This publication implements Air Force Policy Directive (AFPD) 10-2, Readiness and provides
guidance to formulate pyramid alert, recall and notification procedures. It aligns with AFPD 10-
7, Information Operations and AFI 10-701, Operational Security (OPSEC) integrating OPSEC
requirements into the AFMC alert, recall and notification process. This publication applies to all
AFMC personnel who are subject to alert, recall and notification contact during on/off duty hours,
seven days a week. It applies to all AFMC organizations. This instruction requires collecting and
maintaining information protected by the Privacy Act of 1974 as authorized by 10 U.S.C. 8013.
This publication does not apply to the Air National Guard (ANG) and the Air Force Reserve
Command (AFRC) and their units, with the exception of Air Reserve Command (ARC) members
on orders supporting AFMC, should be notified along with the rest of the population when
conditions require execution of a recall/notification event. The Personnel Accountability program
is not covered in this AFMCI; see AFI 36-3802, Force Support Readiness Programs; also known
as Air Force Personnel Accountability and Assessment System (AFPAAS) and DODI 3001.02,
