AFMC is… Goals • Develop and transition technology to maintain air, space and information dominance. • Develop, field and sustain war-winning expeditionary capabilities on time, on cost. (There are more goals, but they do not relate to our document release) Products • Research as research summaries, technical reports, etc.
AFMC is… • Organization • AFMC headquarters is a major unit located at Wright-Patterson AFB, Ohio. • 10 AFMC host bases • Arnold AFB, Tenn.; Brooks City-Base, Texas; Edwards AFB, Calif.; Eglin AFB, Fla.; Hanscom AFB, Mass.; Hill AFB, Utah; Kirtland AFB, N.M.; Robins AFB, Ga.; Tinker AFB, Okla.; and Wright-Patterson AFB, Ohio. • associate units on several non-AFMC bases. • History • a World War I experimental engineering facility - functions of research and development and logistics were operated separately during World War II • reunited for several years in the late 1940s under Air Materiel Command • Split and then reunited in 1961 as AFLC and AFSC • United again in 1991 as AFMC
What this means to you • Many places to look • In the AF and in the other services • Missions are traded over the years • And, the AF is a new Service • We have a lot of different document types • Releases for DTIC and beyond • AFMC has over 40 STINFO document types to release, each with a different release procedure • Typically for HQ AFMC Form 55 requests are for older documents

AFMC Works as a Team • To Release Documents by a Form 55 • Determine if document is older than 1962 • If earlier than 1962 • We have a legally approved letter on file that allows the AFMC STINFO Office to receive the Form 55 from DTIC • STINFO Officer analyzes listed office • STINFO works with the History Office, PA, etc. • If still open, document goes to that office, that office completes the Form 55 • If the designated owner no longer exists • Find related office – anywhere in AFMC or other command or service • Find scientist or engineer who knows technology • If other command or service, return Form 55 to DTIC with recommendation • History Office helps with “hard to find” • If newer, DTIC sends Form 55 to the appropriate office or calls the AFMC STINFO Office
AFMC Works as a Team • History Office helps with “hard to find” • If no available office, the History Office finds the best available scientist • Determine distribution statement • If document should become “A” • Document sent to PA • PA might send for Policy and security review • If document becomes “A”, document is stamped with the Case Number, the date determined and the reviewers initials • Document returned to STINFO Office via the History Office • STINFO Office notifies DTIC, etc. of distribution statement changes and forwards the completed Form 55
Recommendations • Get a team that can get a decision • Notify all applicable offices of decision • Return Form 55 to DTIC
