We are the Military Personnel Flight (MPF) located at the Pentagon. Our mission is to act as the strategic advisor on military personnel policies and programs. We provide support to Air Force personnel stationed at the Pentagon and National Capital Region (NCR) and HH PAS coded Airmen across the world.
We handle everything from ID cards to base in-processing, assignments, re-enlistments, and retirements for all servicemen and their families. We are also the one-stop source for evaluations, promotions, testing, awards, and decorations, or other special actions. As the MPF, we also handle the distribution of CAC and other ID cards. To apply or update your card, please make an appointment online (see link below) or by phone.

Retirements/Separation Are you separating or retiring?

Retirement Options: Request Retirement DD Form 214 Worksheet
Separation Options: DD Form 214 Worksheet Initial Separation Briefing Officer/Enlisted Voluntary Separation Tutorial Voluntary Separation Pre-Separation Order Worksheet
*** Physical Delivery of DD Form 214***
1. In an effort to minimize costs and utilize existing technology, effective 1 December 2013, the hard copy DD Form 214 (copies 1 and 4) will no longer be mailed out to members. Since October 2010, separating or retiring individuals could electronically access and print their DD Form 214s. Eliminating the need of mailing paper copies reduces money spent on a redundant process.
2. This policy affects those DD Form 214s that are accomplished at AFPC-Total Force Service Center (TFSC), Randolph Air Force Base only.
3. During separation and retirement processing, members receive instructions on how to access, review and print their DD Form 214 as needed. Copies 1 and 4 are housed on the secure server in the vMPF for a period of 60 days past the official retirement/separation effective date. After the 60 days, members are able to obtain copies from the eBenefits website.
4. Members with an approved retirement or separation should retrieve a USERID and password allowing access to the AFPC Secure application. This can be done while still on active-duty by using your CAC and either entering the AF Portal or using the direct AFPC Secure link.
Once at the site, utilize the "Update/Delete Password" tab to generate a new USERID/password. While on terminal leave, the member will be able to access the worksheet and be able to retrieve their DD Form 214 when completed.
5. Those who are not able to use their CAC should contact the A1 Service Desk at 1-800-525-0102, (option "8") or dial DSN 665-5004 and they will provide assistance in obtaining a USERID/password.
6. AFPC point of contact is AFPC/DPSOR
Has AFPC sent you your official orders? Then it is time to schedule a final out for your Retirement or Separation. Members can schedule a final out appointment (contact info?). After the appointment is scheduled, members will be sent an outlook calendar invite to remind them of their appointment.
REMINDER: Members must attend their out-processing in uniform. Those members not in uniform will not be allowed to out-process. No exceptions.
IAW AFI 36-2406, Officer and Enlisted Evaluations Systems, para 3.8.5.3 completed OPRs and EPRs on EAD personnel are due to the MPF no later than 30 days after close-out.

NOTE: Some higher level awards or decorations might require additional documentation.
To see a list of all ribbons and decorations, visit myPERS Ribbons and Decorations List.
Unit awards are granted to military units that distinguish themselves during peacetime or in action against hostile forces or an armed enemy of the United States. These awards are only bestowed on units to recognize acts or services that place the unit's performance significantly above that of other units of similar composition and mission responsibility. The Air Force only grants one award for the same act, achievement, or service. Ensure only 10 percent of similar units assigned to their command are recommended annually. Units can also receive specific awards like the Presidential Unit Citation, Joint Meritorious Unit Award, and other sister service unit awards. These awards are governed by DoD 1348.33-M, Manual of Military Decorations and Awards.
If a member believes a unit they were assigned to earned a unit award, they can visit myPERS Recognition Program Home Page to validate award (website lists unit awards from 1991 – current). Members must be able to prove they were assigned to unit during timeframe, before MilPDS records can be updated.
Units must establish duty status procedures for members going TDY. All Air Force members MUST check-in before and after your TDY with your unit’s orderly room in order for your duty status to be updated.
Unit POCs must submit duty status updates to the MPS via BLSDM. To request update of member’s duty status, select “individual form”, then select “request duty status change” and complete all areas in the “duty status change message” area, then click “submit”.
Additional duty status updates that MUST be reported to the MPS are: AWOL, Confinement, Deserter, Sick-in-Quarters, Not Present for Duty—Other, non-contingency TDY. To assist unit POCs with duty status procedures, visit PSD Guide, Duty Status
The Unfavorable Information File (UIF) is an official record of adverse information about an individual. It documents administrative, judicial, or nonjudicial censures concerning the member's performance, responsibility, behavior, etc. The UIF consists of mandatory documents, optional documents (at the commander's discretion), an AF IMT 1058, Unfavorable Information File Actions, and an AF IMT 1137, Unfavorable Information File Summary.
The MPS maintains the UIF (except units that have fully operational CSSs) and all of its documents/contents until the final disposition date; unless early removal of the document or UIF is warranted. Commanders initiate removal action via an AF IMT 1058, or memorandum, and the individual should acknowledge the action.
The Control Roster (CR) is a commander’s rehabilitative tool to establish a 6-month observation period for individuals whose duty performance is substandard, or who fail to meet or maintain Air Force standards of conduct, bearing, and integrity, on or off duty.
NOTE:HQ AFRC or HQ ARPC may establish longer observation periods, not to exceed 12 months, for Reserve personnel if deemed appropriate.
NOTE: ALL duty history updates are made by the member to the Total Force Service Center through their myPERS account. IAW PSD Guide, Duty History, effective 7 Jan 10, the MPF no longer updates member’s duty history. To see how to request duty history updates, see the below steps.
UPDATING DUTY HISTORY On the main page of the myPERS website: Click on the "update my duty history"
Once you have read the instructions, you may request duty changes to your duty history on the left side.
Scroll down on the web page to see your personal duty history. You have the option here to change/correct your duty history and/or add/delete duty history.
This allows you to see when you have submitted requested updates and this is where you attach the required supporting documents.
COMMAND AUTHORITY/G-SERIES ORDERS PROCESS: In order to process G-Series Orders, units must fill out an AF IMT 35 IAW PSD Guide, G-series orders, dtd 20 Oct 11 and send it to the Force Management organizational box. Units that do not send a draft AF Form 35 with their request will not be processed.
