Purpose. This guide provides guidance for home station and deployed Air Force Services Prime RIBS personnel and base augmentees performing mortuary affairs search and recovery (S&R) operations. It identifies and provides home station and Air Expeditionary Force (AEF) contingency planning procedures for conducting search and recovery of deceased United States (US) military personnel, US noncombatants, allied, coalition partner, third country, and adversary personnel. The guide addresses requirements and approaches to S&R that should be considered by Services. It also addresses some of the circumstances where a Services mortuary S&R team may have to either perform expedient S&R or provide a non-Services unit with support for some type of expedient S&R. This publication is not directive in nature. Records required by directive publications will be maintained according to applicable Air Force record management programs and disposition schedules.

Additional sources for this publication were after action report inputs provided by locations supporting overseas deployments.
