This instruction implements Air Force Policy Directive (AFPD) 36-20, Accession of Air Force
Military Personnel, and prescribes procedures for United States Air Force Academy (USAFA) or
outside agencies to request the use of cadets as escorts. It establishes the source of authority for
determining the specific use of cadets as escorts, eligibility requirements, and limitations on
requests for cadet escorts. Agencies requesting cadet escorts will comply with the
authorizations, precedence, eligibility requirements, and procedures contained in this instruction.
This instruction does not apply to individual cadets requesting permission to conduct escort
duties for personal reasons in the cadet area on USAFA. This publication does not apply to Air
