What changed in this edition

This document has been substantially revised and must be completely reviewed. Major changes include a substantial restructuring of the publication. This instruction has been reissued as a DAF Instruction and its language now incorporates the U.S. Space Force (USSF), which is served by chaplains and Religious Affairs Airmen belonging to the U.S. Air Force (USAF)

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.

1 publication in 1 other community depend on this one, which Chaplain 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.
