After an emergency, all Air Force-affiliated personnel (Active Duty, Select Reservists, DAF and NAF Civilians, OCONUS AF Contractors and their family members, including personnel on temporary duty status, on leave, or on a pass in the affected area) who are directly affected by major natural disaster or man-made event are to report their status to their command at the first available opportunity. In some cases, the Secretary of Defense will direct all DOD-affiliated personnel in the affected area to report their accountability status as soon as possible. When this happens, if you have access to the internet you are to report your status online through the Air Force Personnel Accountability and Assessment System (AFPAAS).
