Force support is the correct answer because they are responsible for providing support during emergencies, including mass care, housing, and human services. They work closely with other organizations and agencies to ensure the well-being and safety of individuals affected by the emergency. This includes coordinating shelter, food, and medical assistance, as well as providing support for emotional and mental health needs. Force support plays a crucial role in ensuring that the necessary resources and services are available to those in need during times of crisis.

The Meal Ready to Eat (MRE) ration type does not require cooks when deployed. MREs are pre-packaged meals that are designed to be easily consumed without the need for any additional preparation or cooking. They are self-contained and come with their own heating elements, allowing soldiers to heat up their meals without the need for a separate cooking facility or personnel. This makes MREs a convenient and practical option for military personnel in the field.

The Unit Deployment Manager (UDM) is responsible for ensuring that qualified individuals are assigned to each deployable Unit Type Code (UTC) position within the Force Support Squadron (FSS). They are in charge of coordinating and managing the deployment process, including identifying personnel with the necessary skills and qualifications to fill each position. The UDM plays a crucial role in ensuring that the FSS is properly staffed for deployment operations.

Grandchildren are not authorized to receive travel and per diem entitlements for funeral travel. This is because the entitlements are typically limited to immediate family members such as the spouse, children, and parents of the deceased member. Grandchildren are considered to be one step removed from the immediate family and therefore do not qualify for these entitlements.

The correct answer is "family." The Air Force survivor assistance program (AFSAP) is designed to provide support and assistance to the families of deceased Air Force members. It is important for the program to be responsive to the information needs of the families, as they are the ones directly affected by the loss and may require guidance and resources during this difficult time.

The president is the center figure of a dining-in because they hold the highest position of authority and leadership in the organization or event. As the president, they are typically seated in the center of the head table, symbolizing their central role in the event. They are responsible for presiding over the dinner, delivering speeches, and setting the tone for the evening. The president's position at the center represents their importance and prominence in the dining-in ceremony.

The fundamental premise of SORTS reporting is integrity. This means that the reporting system is based on honesty, trustworthiness, and adherence to ethical principles. It ensures that the data reported is reliable, complete, and free from manipulation or bias. Integrity is crucial in maintaining the credibility and effectiveness of SORTS reporting, as it allows decision-makers to make informed choices based on accurate and trustworthy information.

During ALL military ceremonies, our military tradition expects the display of flags. Flags are an integral part of military ceremonies and represent the identity, unity, and pride of a military organization. They symbolize the values, history, and sacrifices of the armed forces. Displaying flags during military ceremonies is a way to honor and pay respect to the country, the military, and those who have served. It also serves as a reminder of the duty, honor, and commitment of the military personnel.

The correct answer is RFSR1. This Force Support Squadron (FSS) lead unit type code (UTC) supports initial deployment to a bare-base (BB).

Personal vehicle is not authorized for the movement of a deceased member's remains. This is because transporting human remains requires specific equipment and procedures to ensure the dignity and respect of the deceased. Personal vehicles may not have the necessary facilities or meet the required standards for handling and transporting human remains. Therefore, alternative authorized methods such as commercial aircraft, hearse or service car, and government aircraft are used for this purpose.

The government purchase card (GPC) is primarily used for making purchases related to official government business and expenses. It is a convenient and efficient way for government employees to acquire goods and services necessary for their work.

Saluting is deeply ingrained in military traditions and is practiced worldwide, making it an essential and well-known custom in military culture.

The correct answer is Mr. or Mrs. with their surname. This is because when addressing the spouse of a high ranking official, it is customary to use their surname as a sign of respect and formality. Using the first name alone may be considered too informal in this context, and using the spouse's rank may not be appropriate as it is the high ranking official who holds the position, not their spouse.

Burial clothing is classified as a primary mortuary expense because it is an essential cost directly associated with the burial process. It is considered a necessary expense that is incurred in order to properly prepare and present the deceased for their final resting place. Secondary expenses, on the other hand, are typically optional or additional costs that are not directly related to the core burial process. Therefore, burial clothing falls under the category of primary mortuary expenses.

Military invitations must include the date and time of the event spelled out in plain English to ensure clear communication and understanding for all recipients. This is important because military acronyms can be confusing for those who are not familiar with them, so spelling out the date and time eliminates any potential misunderstandings. Additionally, including the host's unit and rank of the invitee may be relevant information, but it is not necessary to be spelled out in plain English on all military invitations.

The correct answer is DD Form 2065, Death Certificate. This form is used as a death confirmation letter when the death occurs overseas.

It is an essential form for legal and administrative purposes, and it is used to notify various agencies and organizations about the death.

AFI 51-601, Gifts to the Department of the Air Force, is the correct answer because it specifically addresses the restrictions on who may accept or reject gifts to the Air Force. This instruction provides guidelines and procedures for accepting and rejecting gifts, ensuring transparency and accountability in the process. It establishes the responsibility of individuals and offices within the Air Force regarding the acceptance and handling of gifts, helping to prevent conflicts of interest and maintain the integrity of the organization.

A person authorized to direct disposition (PADD) is given 10 copies of a certified state death certificate. These copies are necessary for legal and administrative purposes, such as settling the deceased person's estate, filing insurance claims, and notifying government agencies. Having multiple copies ensures that the PADD can distribute them as needed without having to make additional requests or copies.

Once identified as a family affairs representative (FAR), training should be completed within 24 hours. This suggests that there is a sense of urgency in ensuring that the FAR is properly trained and equipped to handle their responsibilities. It is important to act quickly in order to effectively address any family affairs that may arise and provide the necessary support to those involved.

The recommended attire for men attending events that call for business casual is a sport coat without a tie. This suggests that the event requires a level of formality, but not to the extent of a full business suit or coat and tie. A sport coat adds a polished and professional touch, while omitting the tie allows for a more relaxed and comfortable look.

The Unit line number (ULN) is considered a data element that controls and identifies each entry in Joint Operation Planning and Execution System (JOPES). The ULN is a unique identifier assigned to each unit within the JOPES system, allowing for easy tracking and management of units during planning and execution of joint operations. The other options, such as Unitized group ration (UGR), Force requirement number (FRN), and Time-phased force deployment data (TPFDD), are not specifically related to controlling and identifying each entry in JOPES.

Deployed protocol NCOs need to understand local customs and courtesies when in foreign countries. This is important because different cultures have different norms and expectations regarding behavior, greetings, and etiquette. Understanding and respecting these customs can help build positive relationships with host nation personnel and avoid cultural misunderstandings or offenses. It also demonstrates professionalism and adaptability, which are crucial for effective communication and collaboration in international environments.

Expeditionary site plans (ESP) are a part of the base support plan that identifies resources. Therefore, the correct answer is Part 1.

A dry-run is a method commonly used to identify weak points in a distinguished visitor (DV) visit. It involves simulating the visit without the actual presence of the DV. This allows the organizers to test various aspects such as logistics, security measures, and potential issues that may arise during the visit. By conducting a dry-run, any weaknesses or areas that need improvement can be identified and addressed before the actual visit takes place.

The guest of honor is seated to the right of the hostess or host as a sign of respect and precedence according to our customs and courtesies. This position is reserved for the most important or distinguished individual attending the event.

The seat of honor for a distinguished visitor (DV) is located on the rear passenger side of a staff car. This location is considered the most prestigious and respectful position for the DV, as it allows them to sit comfortably and have a clear view of their surroundings. Placing the DV in this seat also provides easy access to the rear door, allowing them to enter and exit the vehicle with ease.

Nonappropriated funds should not be used for a distinguished visitors (DV) lounge. Nonappropriated funds are funds generated by activities on a military installation that are used to support recreational and welfare activities for military personnel and their families. These funds are not meant to be used for VIP lounges or other similar purposes. Therefore, nonappropriated funds should not be allocated for the DV lounge.

The Office of Special Investigations (OSI) personnel should be notified in advance and in writing each time a distinguished visitor (DV) arrives. This is because OSI personnel are responsible for conducting investigations and ensuring the security and safety of the base. They need to be aware of the arrival of any distinguished visitors to properly coordinate security measures and any necessary investigations.

Precedence is the privilege used when determining invitation lists, seating arrangements, order of introduction, military air (MILAIR) priority, and housing priority. Precedence refers to the relative rank, importance, or priority given to individuals based on their position or status. It is often used in formal events, ceremonies, and military protocols to ensure proper order and hierarchy.

The Secretary of Defense (SECDEF) has the authority to waive funeral honors performed by the honor guard. This means that the SECDEF can decide to exempt certain individuals or situations from receiving funeral honors. The mortuary officer, major command, and Headquarters Air Force (HAF) do not have the power to make this decision. It is solely within the jurisdiction of the SECDEF.

The installation commander has overall responsibility for the base honor guard program. As the highest-ranking officer in charge of the entire installation, they are responsible for overseeing all aspects of the base, including the honor guard program. This includes ensuring proper training, equipment, and resources are provided, as well as setting the standards and expectations for the program. The installation commander is ultimately accountable for the success and effectiveness of the base honor guard program.

The wartime flight feeding planning factor is based on 100 percent of the base population. This means that when planning for feeding during wartime flights, the factor takes into account the entire population of the base. This ensures that enough food and resources are allocated to meet the needs of everyone in the base population during wartime flights.

Mortuary case files are kept for the current year plus one additional year. This means that after the current year, the files are retained for one more year before they are no longer needed. This allows for easy access to the files in case any information or documentation is required in the future.

Concurrent return is the preferred method of handling remains during periods of conflict. This means that the deceased are transported back to their home country or place of origin as soon as possible, simultaneously with ongoing military operations.

The maximum allowable number of internment flags given to a deceased's family is 3. This suggests that the family of the deceased can receive up to three internment flags as a symbol of honor and respect for the individual's service.

When greeting distinguished visitors at the flight line, it is common for the honor guard and the greeting party to wear hats as a sign of respect and professionalism. However, maintainers performing work are not expected to wear hats as they are engaged in physical labor and their focus is on their tasks rather than formalities. Wearing hats may also hinder their ability to perform their duties effectively. Therefore, maintainers performing work do not wear hats when greeting distinguished visitors.

The War and Mobilization Plan (WMP) provides current policies, planning factors, and Global Force Management (GFM) forces to support operations. However, it does not provide the concept of operations. This refers to the overall plan or strategy for achieving military objectives and coordinating actions. While the WMP may include elements of the concept of operations, it is not explicitly provided by the plan itself.

The protocol officer should stay behind until the distinguished visitor's aircraft "wheels are up" because it is their responsibility to ensure that all protocol and etiquette requirements are met during the visit. They need to coordinate and oversee the proper procedures for the departure of the distinguished visitor, ensuring that everything goes smoothly and according to protocol.

In a deployed situation, the protocol officer works for the Installation commander. The protocol officer is responsible for managing and coordinating official events, ceremonies, and visits within the installation. They ensure that proper protocols and procedures are followed, and they also handle diplomatic and ceremonial matters. The Installation commander is in charge of the overall operations and management of the installation, making them the appropriate commander for the protocol officer to work for in a deployed situation.

The correct answer is "rank of DV." When transporting distinguished visitors in government military vehicles, it is necessary to affix plates indicating the rank of the DV. This helps to identify the importance and status of the individual being transported and ensures proper protocol is followed.

The correct answer is "Requirements driven." In an operational plan (OPLAN), the time-phased force deployment data (TPFDD) is typically based on the specific requirements outlined in the plan.

The TPFDD is developed in accordance with these requirements to ensure that the necessary resources and capabilities are available at the right time and place to support the plan's execution.

The given question asks for the numerical figure that is NOT one of the population bases for Services unit type code (UTC). The options provided are 275, 550, 1100, and 2200. The correct answer is 2200 because it is the only figure that is not one of the population bases for Services UTC.

When carried in a marching procession with another flag(s), the US flag is positioned to the flag's right. This means that when looking at the procession, the US flag will be on the left side. This positioning is a sign of respect and honor for the US flag, as it is traditionally given the place of prominence. Placing the US flag to the right also ensures that it is the first flag that is seen by viewers or spectators.

The emergency operations center director provides oversight for the installation commander during emergencies. They are responsible for coordinating and managing the overall emergency response efforts, ensuring that the necessary resources and support are provided to the incident commander and other personnel involved in the emergency response. The emergency operations center director acts as a central point of coordination and communication, making critical decisions and providing guidance to the installation commander throughout the emergency.

After the initial notification of a distinguished visitor (DV) visit, it is important to develop a detailed working plan. This plan will outline all the necessary details and logistics for the visit, including scheduling, transportation, accommodations, and any special requirements or preferences of the DV. Developing a detailed working plan will ensure that all aspects of the visit are well organized and executed smoothly, allowing for a successful and memorable experience for the DV.

A courtesy call is performed for distinguished visitor (DV) visitors who are of lower rank in relation to the host. This means that the host is of higher rank than the DV. The purpose of a courtesy call is to show respect and hospitality to the DV, and it is typically initiated by the host. By performing a courtesy call, the host acknowledges the lower rank of the DV and demonstrates their willingness to accommodate and honor them during their visit.
