Major changes are as follows: reorganizing manual into parts and rearranging chapter order; adding OMM and Wartime Determinant chapters; adding Attachment 2; updating the requirements determination process to current methodology; updating language to current terminology (e.g., post/position manpower, RPF, etc.); clarifying differences between PAT and SAT; and other administrative changes. Part 1 —STUDY MANAGEMENT 11
Publications state their own changes on page 1 — behind a PDF the official host will not serve to a search engine. This is that section, verbatim. It describes the edition above, not every historical change.

2 publications in 2 other communities depend on this one, which Manpower & Organization owns. Each community inspects its own publications; a dependency that crosses communities is owned by nobody, which is why this list normally does not exist anywhere. Built from the publications' own citations, so it reflects what we have read.
If AFMAN 38-102 changes, these are the documents that point at it. Extracted from the publications' own text, so it reflects what we have read, not a complete dependency map. Every publishing office validates its own document; nobody validates the seams between them.
