Expanded Course Descriptions

AS-100 Aerospace Science: A Journey into Aviation History (Prerequisite – None) This is the recommended first AS course for all new cadets. It is an aviation history course

focusing on the development of flight throughout the centuries. It starts with ancient civilizations, then progresses through time to modern day. The emphasis is on civilian and military contributions to aviation; the development, modernization, and transformation of the Air Force; and a brief astronomical and space exploration history. It is interspersed with concise overviews of the principles of flight to include basic aeronautics, aircraft motion and control, flight power, and rockets. Throughout the course, there are readings, videos, hands-on activities, and in-text and student workbook exercises to guide in the reinforcement of the materials.

AS-200 Aerospace Science: The Science of Flight – A Gateway to New Horizons (Prerequisite –AS-100) This course is designed to acquaint the student with the aerospace environment, the human

requirements of flight, principles of aircraft flight, and principles of navigation. The course begins with a discussion of the atmosphere and weather. After developing an understanding of the environment, how that environment affects flight is introduced. Discussions include the forces of lift, drag, thrust, and weight. Students also learn basic navigation including map reading, course plotting, and the effects of wind. The portion on the Human Requirements of Flight is a survey course on human physiology. Discussed here are the human circulatory system, the effects of acceleration and deceleration, and protective equipment.

AS-220 Aerospace Science: An Introduction to Global Awareness (Prerequisite –AS-100) This is a customized course about the world’s cultures. The course is specifically created

for the US Army, Marine Corps, Navy, and Air Force Junior ROTC programs. It introduces students to the world’s cultures through the study of world affairs, regional studies, and cultural awareness. The course delves into history, geography, religions, languages, culture, political systems, economics, social issues, environmental concerns, and human rights. It looks at major events and significant figures that have shaped each region. Throughout the course, there are readings, video segments, hands-on activities, other optional activities, technology enrichment, and assessments to guide in the reinforcement of the materials.

AS-300 Aerospace Science: The High Frontier (Prerequisite AS-100)

This is a science course that includes the latest information available in space science and space exploration. The course begins with the study of the space environment form the earliest days of interest in astronomy and early ideas of the heavens, through the Renaissance, and on into modern astronomy. It provides an in-depth study of the Earth, Sun, stars, Moon, and solar system, including the terrestrial and the outer planets. It discusses issues critical to travel in the upper atmosphere such as orbits and trajectories unmanned satellites, and space probes. It investigates the importance of entering space and discusses manned and unmanned space flights, focusing on concepts surrounding space flight, space vehicles, launch systems, and space missions.

AS-400 Aerospace Science: Management of the Cadet Corps (Optional Course) (Prerequisite – AS-100) This course is designed for advanced cadets who are part of the cadet staff. This hands-on

experience affords the cadets the opportunity to put the theories of previous leadership courses into practice. All the planning, organizing, coordinating, directing, controlling, and decision-making will be done by the cadet staff. They practice their communication, decision-making, personal-interaction, managerial, and organizational skills.


6

AS-410 Aerospace Science: Survival (Optional Course) (Prerequisite – AS-100) The Survival text is a synthesis of the basic survival information found in Air Force Regulation

64-4 Survival Training. The survival instruction will provide training in skills, knowledge, and attitudes necessary to successfully perform fundamental tasks needed for survival. Survival also presents “good to know” information that would be useful in any situation. The information is just as useful to an individual lost hunting or stranded in a snowstorm.

AS-500 Aerospace Science: Aviation Ground School (Optional Course) (Prerequisite – AS-100) The material covered is an advanced, more in-depth study of the previous aerospace topics.

This course is the foundation for students interested in receiving a private pilot’s license. When the course is completed the students should be prepared to take and pass the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) written examination. The Private Pilot Manual is the primary source for initial study and review. The text contains complete and concise explanations of the fundamental concepts and ideas that every private pilot needs to know. The subjects are organized in a logical manner to build upon previously introduced topics. Subjects are often expanded upon through the use of Discovery Insets, which are strategically placed throughout the chapters. Periodically, human factors principles are presented in Human Element Insets to help you understand how your mind and body function while you fly. Throughout the manual, concepts that directly relate to FAA test questions are highlighted by FAA Question Insets. Additionally, you can evaluate your understanding of material introduced in a particular section by completing the associated review questions.

LE-100 Leadership Education: Citizenship, Character, and Air Force Traditions (Prerequisite – None)

Many of the hours dedicated to leadership studies relate directly to the academic subject matter. The LE-100 textbook introduces cadets to the Air Force Junior Reserve Officer Training Corps (AFJROTC) program providing a basis for progression through the rest of the AFJROTC program while instilling elements of good citizenship. It contains sections on cadet and Air Force organizational structure; uniform wear; customs, courtesies, and other military traditions; health and wellness; fitness; individual self-control; and citizenship.

LE-200 Leadership Education: Communication, Awareness, and Leadership (Prerequisite –LE-100)

Leadership Education 200 stresses communications skills and cadet corps activities. Much information is provided on communicating effectively, understanding groups and teams, preparing for leadership, solving conflicts and problems, and personal development. Written reports and speeches compliment the academic materials. Cadet corps activities include holding positions of greater responsibility in the planning and execution of corps projects.

LE-300 Leadership Education: Life Skills and Career Opportunities (Prerequisite –LE-100) The Leadership Education III: Life Skills and Career Opportunities textbook will be helpful to

students deciding which path to take after high school. Information on how to apply for admission to college or to a vocational or technical school is included. Information on how to begin the job search is available to students who decide not to go to college or vocational school. Available also is information about financial planning and how to save, invest, and spend money wisely, as well as how not to get caught in the credit trap. Students are informed about real life issues such as understanding contracts, leases, wills, warranties, legal notices, and personal bills. Citizen responsibilities such as registering to vote, jury duty, and draft registration will be helpful to. For those students who may be moving into an apartment of their own, information is presented on apartment shopping and grocery shopping skills. There is information on how to prepare a résumé and the importance of good interviewing skills. If there are students who are interested in a career in the military, with the federal government, or an aerospace career, information is also provided for them.

LE-400 Leadership Education: Principles of Management (Prerequisite –LE-100) Leadership IV: Principles of Management textbook is a guide to understanding the


7

fundamentals of management, managing yourself, and others. Emphasis is placed on allowing the student to see himself/herself as a manager. Every organization, regardless of size, faces the challenge of managing operations effectively. No matter how well a manager carries out his or her job, there are always ways of doing at least part of the task more effectively. There are four building blocks of leadership considered in this text from the military and civilian perspective. Attention to these four areas will form a strong foundation for a capability to lead others – something that can be very valuable to you for the rest of your life. The four areas are Management Techniques, Management Decisions, Management Functions, and Managing Self and Others.

AFJROTC BENEFITS FOR CADETS

Enrollment in the AFJROTC program does not subject the cadet to any military obligation.

However, completion of two or more years of the JROTC does provide some tangible benefits,

which are listed below:

Cadets who complete two years of JROTC and meet the qualifications set forth by Air

Education and Training Command can be selected for a four-year college scholarship if

recommended by the senior AFJROTC instructor and the high school principal.

The Senior Aerospace Science Instructor and high school principal can nominate

qualified graduating cadets to the military service academies.

Cadets who complete three or more years of the AFJROTC program and enlist in the

Armed Forces after graduation may enter the respective Service (Army, Air Force, or

Navy) two pay grades higher than those who enlist with no prior high school JROTC

experience; for the Marine Corps, one pay grade higher. With two years of AFJROTC,

the enlistee may enter one pay grade higher than other enlistees.

Cadets who attend a college or university Senior ROTC program may receive credit for

one year of college ROTC if they have completed there or more years of AFJROTC and

one semester of college ROTC if they have successfully completed two years of

AFJROTC.

7.1.3.4. Reserve Cadet. A Reserve Cadet is a student who either 1) completed the entire AFJROTC Academic Program, 2) is in a 4x4 schedule and completed an AFJROTC course during one term, but is not participating in an AFJROTC course during the current term, or 3) is in a traditional schedule unit where the cadet cannot participate in the AFJROTC academic program for that particular year. A student must have been a cadet for at least one

AFJROTCI36-2001 20 MAY 2016 31

academic year (academic term for 4x4) prior to being considered a Reserve Cadet. Students meeting this criteria may be designated, with SASI concurrence, as a Reserve Cadet. Reserve Cadets may participate in all AFJROTC activities (community service, drill team, honor guard, etc.). Time in reserve status does not count towards the Certificate of Completion, nor do Reserve Cadets count toward minimum unit enrollment or unit funding. Reserve Cadets may retain their uniform for the entire academic year. The rules for Reserve Cadet participation will be outlined in the unit’s Cadet Guide.


21

CADET CONDUCT AND HONOR CODE

1. Because you will be wearing the official United States Air Force uniform, a few rules

governing conduct and appearance must be explained. Your actions will create either a positive

or negative impression. This is why, when you are in or out for your AFJROTC uniform, you

must display proper conduct. Remember, first impressions are lasting impressions!

2. When wearing the uniform, you must display a professional appearance. Even when you are

not in uniform you are being evaluated on your actions and conduct, not only by your fellow

students, but by the faculty and staff. To attain and keep a professional appearance, a positive

attitude about yourself and the AFJROTC program is essential.

3. Your conduct as a cadet goes beyond the AFJROTC program. As a cadet, you are expected to

set the example of good behavior and appearance at all times. One cannot succeed in this

program by being a super cadet in AFJROTC class and then become a troublemaker in other

classes. Remember that one of the major purposes of this program is to help you develop the

necessary qualities to become a successful leader.

4. To progress in the AFJROTC program, you must avoid trouble. You cannot gain the respect

of our su ordi ates a d peers alike if ou a ot lear to lead e a ple .

5. Yes Sir/No Sir a d Yes Ma’a /No Ma’a are ilitar usto respo ses while ou are a member of the MD-20022 AFJROTC program. Let it become a habit when addressing

instructors, teachers and staff, cadet officers, noncommissioned officers, Airmen, fellow

students as well as parents and other adults.

6. The Cadet Honor Code is a time-honored code of conduct that reflects a binding element of

this cadet organization. If you instructors, teachers, cadet staff, or fellow cadets cannot trust

you, how can you ever be an effective leader? Think about it and be sure you understand the

ode’s ea i g a d essage.

7. Fi all , ea h adet a d pare t or guardia should thoroughl fa iliar with the Stude t Code of Co du t . This handbook explains the kind of conduct that gets students in trouble

and lists the kinds of behavior that requires disciplinary action. Adherence to high standards of

conduct and a personal honor code will enable each of you to enjoy your time at Charles H.

Flowers High School and contribute to a trouble-free environment for your fellow students.

uniform or while wearing civilian clothes unless expressly authorized by the SASI or ASI.

GRADING POLICY

The blue AFJROTC uniform must be worn on the designated day of each week. If the cadet has

an excused absence, the uniform is to be worn on the first day the student returns. Uniform

wear is a requirement for successful completion of this course.

When homework is assigned it is to be accurate and submitted in a completed form on the day

it is due.

Class attendance is also an important aspect of this course. If a student has an unexcused

absence on the day of a recorded grade, the student will receive a zero for hi/her failure to

perform the specific assignment/task. In grades 9-12, the accumulation of 10 days of

unexcused absences per school year may result in a no-grade for the course.

Students returning form absences are responsible for making up work they missed within 3

days after retur i g to s hool. It is the stude t’s respo si ility to se ure the issed assignments and make-up work within the prescribed time. If for some reason, more time is

needed, other arrangements may be worked out between student and instructor. If an

assessment, project or presentation was announced before an absence and was given on the

day of the absence, it will be taken on the first day the student

CLOTHING AND EQUIPMENT ACCOUNT

1. Air Force uniforms and clothing items are loaned to cadets by the Air Force. These items remain Air Force property must be returned, in good condition, when one leaves the AFJROTC program. Socks, nametag and ribbons are not returned. 2. When issued uniforms and other items for personal use, each cadet will be required to sign and obtain Parent/Guardian’s signature on the Application and Agreement (A1) and pay a nonrefundable fee of $30.00. This fee will offset the cost of fieldtrips and other activities through out the year. Upon receiving uniform items the cadet will acknowledge receipt by signature and initialing the appropriate block for each item on the uniform issue Receipt form (A2) 3. At the end of the academic year all cadets who are not returning to the AFJROTC program the next school year must turn in the uniform. Those cadets who move out of the Flowers High School community during the summer must turn in the uniform at the main office as part of their transfer process. 4. All issued items of clothing and equipment have a cost set by the government. Cadets are responsible to maintain all these items in good condition. If an item is lost or damaged through neglect, the cadet will be required to replace that item. Obligations will be submitted on all damaged or missing items that are not replaced or paid for. If the obligation is not satisfied, your report card will be withheld and a possible delay of graduation will result. 5. Here are some tips to help control uniform items: a. Do not leave uniform items unattended or in unlocked lockers b. Do not lend uniform items c. Turn in any found uniform item d. Do not wash or iron your coat, pants, or skirts. These items must be dry

cleaned only. 6. Clothing items that become worn-out or no longer fit may be exchanged at no cost to the cadet. Except for initial issue, alterations are the responsibility of the cadet. 7. Uniforms will be worn on the designated days to all classes (all day). Items to be exchanged must be dry cleaned or laundered. These items must be ready for reissue to other cadets. 8. To obtain items such as ribbons, rank, buttons, nametag and ribbon mounts, contact your flight Logistics Specialist. Do this before uniform wear day when you must be in proper uniform. THINK AHEAD!

CADET RANKS AND PROMOTION PROCEDURES

1. GENERAL: In MD-20022, cadet ranks parallel those of the active Air Force. Ranks are awarded based upon proven performance and on potential for assumption of additional future responsibilities. See the AFJROTC MD-20022 website (www.chflo-afjrotc.zohosites.com) for an illustration of cadet ranks. When using ranks in the AFJROTC program, the word “cadet” will always be used to ensure it is understood that individuals being referred to are cadets and not members of the armed services. 2. LIMITATIONS: Cadet ranks are also limited based upon the amount of enrollment in the program. At current manning levels, the maximum rank attainable within MD-20022 is Cadet Lieutenant Colonel or however high the ASI Staff determines. Additional enrollment would warrant a higher attainable rank. Distribution of ranks within MD-20022 will also parallel that of an active Air Force unit. In other words, we will ensure we do not have too many officers for the amount of enlisted within our ranks. 3. PERMANENT RANKS: All cadets are assigned a permanent grade commensurate with the number of AFJROTC years satisfactorily completed. Permanent grades are awarded during the second semester of each year. Retention of permanent grades is contingent upon satisfactory performance and behavior as determined by the SASI/ASI. Permanent officer status will be awarded to cadets holding officer positions for two or more grading periods. Exceptions are authorized at the discretion of the SASI and in accordance with published unit guidance.

a. The permanent grade for first-year cadets is Airman. Second-year cadets are Airman First Class. Third-year cadets are Senior Airman. Fourth-year, if offered, cadets are Staff Sergeant.

b. Cadets serving in a temporary grade may revert to their permanent grade upon completion of these duties. At the discretion of the SASI, cadets in their final term of AFJROTC may retain the highest rank to which they have been promoted, regardless of course level.

4. COMMAND AND STAFF: The SASI will select the cadet Group Commander, subordinate commanders and key staff members required by the organizational structure of the unit. The SASI may allow cadet commanders and key staff members to propose remaining cadet staff members or may designate the remaining cadet staff members. However every cadet in the unit will receive a position as we promote responsibility and accountability as well as teamwork. RANK HAS ITS PRIVILEGES (RHIP): The military system is a hierarchy. Leaders placed in charge of units in the military structure exercise control. These leaders are officers and NCOs. All must display disciplined obedience combined with loyalty, in accordance with law and policy. From the highest to the lowest, subordinates must extend an unfailing respect to the authority that issues orders. Personal admiration is a 5. voluntary tribute to another that the military service does not demand; the service, however, does demand respect for authority by unfailing courtesy to people who exercise it. The privileges of rank do not include the privilege of abuse of position. The privileges of rank and position are privileges indeed, well worth striving for and attaining. Greater expectations of conduct and behavior are expected from those higher in rank and position.

DEVELOP CITIZENS OF CHARACTER DEDICATED TO SERVING THEIR NATION AND COMMUNITY 27

6. PROMOTIONS: Cadets are promoted as a result of proven performance and potential for assumption of additional responsibilities. The promotion cycles in MD-20022 occur at the end of each grading quarter or whenever it is deemed appropriate. All AS I/II cadets are eligible for promotion at the end of the first, second, third and fourth quarters. AS III/IV cadets will be eligible for promotion at the end of the second, third and fourth quarters. This restriction ensures ranks do not grow too rapidly for the size of the unit. 7. PROMOTION PROCEDURES: AS III/IV cadet staff will initiate the promotion cycle by performing an assessment of all currently enrolled MD-20022 cadets. Flight Commanders will be responsible for the assessment of all subordinates within their flight, and will endeavor to remain objective and professional throughout the procedure; ensuring personal bias does not enter into the process. Flight Commanders and their Assistant Flight Commander will fill out Initial feedback (review) no later than the fourth week of every grading period, and Final ratings must be done one week prior to end of the grading period. All feedbacks and grading sheets must be shown to the cadets to ensure no surprise or dispute over promotions. After the assessments have been completed, the Flight Commander will compose a memorandum containing their promotion recommendations for the Squadron Commander, who will in turn compose a similar memorandum for the SASI/ASI (THIS IS MANDATORY). The Group Commander will compose a memorandum that will include promotion recommendations on Group staff members who have not been assessed by the Squadron Commander (Logistics Officer, Squadron Commander, etc.). See Figures B-2 and B-3. In no case will a cadet be promoted if he/she has not attained a “B” average in AFJROTC and an overall 2.0 GPA in all other courses. Otherwise, promotion recommendations will be based on an overall assessment of the cadet’s performance and potential, to include academic performance, proper wear of the uniform, appropriate behavior and demeanor, and participation in cadet activities. The SASI/ASI is the final determining authority for all promotions. In all cases where there is a disagreement with the recommendations the SASI/ASI will arrive at an appropriate solution. 8. DEMOTIONS: Cadets will not normally be demoted. However, in instances of egregious behavior or conduct detrimental to the corps of cadets (constant lack of responsibility or disruptive behavior contradictory to unit mission), a cadet may be demoted at the discretion of the SASI/ASI. This process may be as the result of behavior noted personally by the SASI/ASI or as the result of recommendations of the Cadet Staff through the normal cadet chain of command. Cadets who are demoted will have a Memorandum for Record (MFR) inserted in their cadet records documenting the demotion and its cause. The MFR will be removed when and if the cadet returns to good standing, normally at the end of the next grading/promotion cycle.

APPENDIX D – AWARDS AND DECORATIONS

1. GENERAL: Cadets in MD-20022 have the opportunity to earn a wide variety of awards and decorations recognizing their accomplishments. These awards are of two types – those with criteria which are generated by and those which have criteria generated by national service organizations, such as the Air Force Association or the Sons of the American Revolution. The first type of award is awarded as earned throughout the school year, and the second type award is made on a once-a-year basis at the annual Awards Night. Cadets previously enrolled in JROTC programs from other services may wear any awards earned in those programs, as well as a limited number of Civil Air Patrol awards. 2. AFJROTC AWARDS: The AFJROTC awards and their associated criteria are:

ANNUAL AWARDS:

a. Distinguished AFJROTC Cadet Award: The award recognizes one outstanding second-year cadet (third-year cadet in a 4-year program) selected at the end of each school year. This allows the recipient to wear the award their final year in the AFJROTC program. The recipient must be of high moral character, demonstrate positive personal attributes, display outstanding military potential, and maintain consistent academic and military excellence. The recipient should hold the following awards prior to selection: Leadership Ribbon Achievement Ribbon, Superior Performance Ribbon, Academic Ribbon, Co-curricular Activities Leadership Ribbon, Service Ribbon.

Outstanding Cadet Ribbon: Show high morals and outstanding military potential. Demonstrate positive personal character. Attain academic and military excellence. It is limited to 5% of the unit.

Those Cadets who have earned the ribbon but fail to maintain a satisfactory level of practice and performance participation will be placed in probationary status as determined by the Color Guard Commander and approved by the Aerospace Science Instructor Cadre. During the probationary period, the ribbon will be turned into the Drill Team Commander. If the Cadet’s performance improves, the ribbon will be returned. If the performance does not improve, the ribbon will be permanently removed from the Cadet’s record.

UNIFORM WEAR AND STANDARDS

Cadets must wear the uniform once per week on the assigned day. This is an Air Force requirement and the uniform must be worn the entire school day. If a cadet has an excused absence on a uniform wear day, the grade may be made up the first day of return to school without penalty. If the absence is unexcused the uniform grade will be lowered. When a cadet wears the uniform, he/she is responsible for presenting a neat, clean, and professional military image. Appearance and grooming standards help cadets present the image of disciplined cadets who can be relied upon to do the job they are called on to do. A professional military image has no room for the extreme, the unusual, or the faddish. The standards for wearing the uniform consist of four elements: neatness, cleanliness, safety, and military image. The first three are absolute, objective criteria for the efficiency, health, and well-being of the force. The fourth standard, military image is also a very important aspect of military appearance. People, both military and civilian, draw conclusions as to the military effectiveness of the Air Force by how they perceive those in uniform. The uniform standards in AFI 36-2903 are influenced to some extent by military tradition, and they reflect the image the Air Force desires to project to the civilian community. The basic concept of the Air Force uniform is that it is plain but distinctive dress, with an absolute minimum number of badges, insignia, and devices authorized for wear on it. Special Uniform and Appearance Rules: Here are some additional guidelines about uniform and appearance. Complete details on uniform and personal grooming requirements for AFJROTC cadets can be found in the AFJROTC Uniform and Awards Guide, in AFJROTCI 36-2001, and in AFI 36-2903.

Jewelry: While in uniform, you may wear a wristwatch and rings, but no more than three rings at any one time. You may wear one bracelet if it is neat and conservative. However, the bracelet must not detract from military image, must not be wider than one-half inch, and must not subject anyone to potential injury. You may not wear ornaments on your head or around your neck. Thumb rings are not allowed in uniform. Colored bracelets that support a cause are also not allowed. Female cadets in uniform may wear earrings if the earrings are conservative and kept within sensible limits. For example, you may wear one small spherical (diamond, gold, black, white pearl, or silver) pierced or clip earring on each earlobe. The earring worn in each earlobe must match. Earrings should fit tightly without extending below the earlobes, unless they are clip earrings. Male cadets will not wear earrings when in uniform. Eyeglasses or Sunglasses: If you wear glasses, they must not have any ornaments on the frames or lenses. Eyeglass lenses that are conservative, clear, slightly tinted, or have photosensitive lenses may be worn in uniform while indoors or while in military formation. When outdoors and in uniform, sunglasses and eyeglasses must have lenses and frames that are conservative; faddish or


A-3

mirrored lenses are prohibited. Sunglasses are not allowed while in a military formation. Neither eyeglasses nor sunglasses can be worn around the neck while in uniform. Tattoos or Brands: Whether you are in or out of uniform, tattoos or brands anywhere on the body are not allowed if they are obscene or if they advocate sexual, racial, ethnic, or religious discrimination. Tattoos or brands that might harm good order and discipline or bring discredit upon the Air Force are also barred, whether you are in or out of uniform. Excessive tattoos or brands, even though they do not violate the prohibitions in the above paragraph, will not be exposed or visible (including visible through the uniform) while in uniform. Excessive is defined as any tattoo or brands that exceed one-quarter of the exposed body part, and those above the collarbone and readily visible when wearing an open collar uniform. The SASI may exercise discretion if a new cadet arrives with a tattoo that may not be in full compliance with the above guidance. The tattoo may be covered up with a skin-colored bandage while in uniform and still participate in the program. However, tattoos and brands should be discouraged. The cadet should be counseled on the fact that tattoos and brands may preclude him or her from serving in the military. Body Piercing: Cadets in uniform are not allowed to attach or display objects, articles, jewelry, or ornamentation to or through the ear, nose, tongue, or any exposed body part (including anything that might be visible through the uniform). Female cadets in uniform, however, are allowed to wear conservative earrings, pierced or clip style, in their earlobes. No cadets may wear any visible facial/body piercings while in uniform or on campus.

Specific Female Cadet Grooming Guidelines:

Hair will not contain excessive amount of grooming aids, touch eyebrows. Hair color/ highlights/frosting (must not be faddish). Examples of natural looking for

Hair: Your hair should be no longer than the bottom of the collar edge at the back of the neck. Your hairstyle must be conservative—no extreme or faddish styles are allowed. It should also look professional and allow you to wear uniform headgear in the proper manner, so your hair must not be too full or too high on the head. In addition, your hairstyle shouldn’t need many grooming aids. If you use pins, combs, barrettes, elastic bands or similar items, they must be plain, similar in color to your hair, and modest in size. Wigs or hairpieces must also conform to these guidelines.


A-3

human beings: Blonde/Brunette/ Red/Black/Grey. No shaved heads or flat-top hairstyles for women. Micro-braids and cornrows are authorized for women. EXCEPTION: Hair may be visible in front of women's flight cap. However, long hair will be secured with no loose ends. Nails: While in uniform, colorful/flashy nails are not permitted. Cadets must have nice clean nails. Females are permitted to have natural or clear nails. French manicures are also permitted. Skirts: The length of your skirt may not vary beyond the top and bottom of the kneecap. Your skirt should fit smoothly, should hang naturally, and must not be excessively tight. You must wear hosiery with the skirt. Choose a sheer nylon in a neutral dark brown, black, off-black, or dark blue shade that complements the uniform and your skin tone.

Specific Male Cadet Grooming Guidelines:

Hair: Keep your hair clean, neat, and trimmed. It must not contain large amounts of grooming aids such as greasy creams, oils, and sprays that remain visible in the hair. When your hair is groomed, it should not touch your ears or eyebrows, and only the closely cut or shaved hair on the back of your neck should touch the collar. Your hair should not exceed 11⁄4 inch in bulk regardless of the length. Bulk is the distance that the hair projects from the scalp when groomed (as opposed to length of the hair). The bulk and length of your hair must not interfere with wearing any Air Force headgear properly, and it must not protrude below the front band of the headgear. Your hair must have a tapered appearance on both sides and back, both with and without headgear. A tapered appearance means that, when viewed from any angle, the outline of the hair on the side and back will generally match the shape of the skull, curving inward to the end point.

Your hair may not contain or have attached to it any visible foreign items. If you dye your hair, it should look natural. You may not dye your hair an unusual color or one that contrasts with your natural coloring. You may have sideburns if they are neatly trimmed and tapered in the same manner as your haircut. Sideburns must be straight and of even width (not flared) and end in a clean-shaven horizontal line. They may not extend below the lowest part of the outer ear opening. No extreme of faddish hair styles are allowed. Hair may not protrude below the front band of properly worn headgear.
