The reason this manual is hard to find online is because it is a product that is not to be distributed outside of the military. You have made this available to anyone in the world with a computer. This puts our airman and soldiers at risk.

I must agree that this is an OPSEC vulnerability. BUT

It’s not issued to airmen with a security clearance so it’s a very minor OPSEC vulnerability. What bad things would someone do with this, really?

when i joined the AF, the edetion that is shown above of the Airmen’s Manual was issued to all basic trainees. My previous job required a clearance, and we all still had one readily available. a very major OPSEC breach. Now I understand why my wingmen are more at risk than ever. Sleep well stupid, you put us at risk.

All the information published in the Airmans Manual is general information available on the WWW. There is no classifeid material in there. Honestly the information in there other than id’ing bombs and how to put on Chem Warfare equipment is great info for campers and such.

Lt Col it has been online since 2006. It is a little late to get ruffled feathers now, besides it is an AF website…..

This is not a DoD web site, it’s a third party site that talks about the military. Thanks Jimmy for not knowing anything about government and military web pages.

I mean I guess if they know we use S.P.O.R.T.S, they could counter it somehow…..or the mopp levels. That kind of intel leaked could be devastating.

It really doesnt matter much, as there is a new edition of this manual. Besides, if it was classified we ALL would have been briefed of the sensitivity of the documant. This is from someone that held a full TS/SCI and was SIOP’d. Plus, does anyone think we are put classified material out there to be stolen or sold??

First off, OPSEC does not deal with classified information it deals with Operations information. There is NOTHING in the Airman’s manual dealing with the conduct of future or on-going Ops.
Hater in the AF, jimmy was referring to the link he provided, not this one.
All of you that are in the military really need to brush up on what OPSEC is and what it isn’t. Also there are no markings on it indicating it is FOUO but thanks for wanting to protect the fact that we can do SABC from the enemy.

The Airman’s Manual is available on E-pubs, which anybody can get to. If it is an OPSEC risk, it is one that the Air Force is allowing

Google AFMAN 10-100. You can buy this very thing off of AMAZON.COM(25$ new, 7$ used). If Amazon can sell it, it is not classified.
I honestly would expect a Lt. Col(a college educated man) to be capable of using google, and I am disappointed.

THIS IS NOT classfied data, otherwise it would be locked in a safe. Sometimes, people’s petty jealoulsy of what others are doing shows.
February 6th, 2011 at 4:36 pm
Its not classified, but it is limited. For anyone with one read the inside of the front cover. Not to be distributed outside of DOD personnel. Not that theirs anything in here thats classified, but the less people who know our ins and outs the better imo.

As was previously pointed out, this manual can be downloaded straight from the E-Pubs site. Jimmy may have hosted it on this site, but I, currently NOT at a military computer, am able to go to the E-Pubs site and access, download and view the current 10-100!! If this is ‘not to be distributed outside of DOD personnel’, then the AIR FORCE is failing from the start!! Furthermore, as previously stated, there is no information in this manual that is not already public knowledge or extremely available via a 15 second search of Google. The fact that it is contained in one easy to carry book does not change the fact that it is public knowledge, nor does the USAF’s statement make it FOUO.

Why is everyone complaining on here… Bunch of whiners. If anyone thinks it an “OPSEC breech” stop crying like a baby, and do something about it. I guess a College Degree (LtCol) can’t buy some common sense, or balls.
July 20th, 2011 at 3:14 am
really who gives a crap about this website making an Airman’s Manual open to the world to read?? we have to force our airman to read it and its full of common sense stuff…really, oh look theres a bomb lets not get close to it or should i see what my manual says to do or gas gas gas hmmm maybe i should put on my mask…..stupid nonners

It says RIGHT IN THE FRONT COVER on the NEWEST and THE 04 version:
“REALEASABILITY: There are no releasability restrictions on this publication.”
AFPAM10-100 / AFMAN10-100
By order of the Secratary of the Air Force 1 March 2009. As mentioned before, none of this information is unique to military operations, and most of it is common sense or common knowledge. Even what isn’t could be found EASILY on goggle or wikipedia. If this was a threat to our military function, I guarantee this website would have been given a C&D within 12 hours of posting it. Want proof? Look into wikileaks.

n00bs- How well did you read the front cover? In the 1 March 2009 edition it states, clear as day, “RELEASABILITY: Aceess to this publication is restricted: this publication may be released to Department of Defense (DOD) personnel only; requests for accessibility outside of the DOD must be approved by the OPR.”
It’s funny that the majority of the comments on here that induce the most drama are obviously posted by the enlisted side of the house; this childish, sophomoric attitude is why most enlisted people are looked at as immature and uneducated. This manual, although available thru many civilian commercial sites, undoubtedly thru the help of prior military members, IS a restricted publication and the military in itself has taken the steps to make sure it stays that way. Yes, it is available in E-Pubs. Try getting there without the proper certificates and login. Even Lt. Col Ugelstad, the OPSEC “MAN WITH THE PLAN” has stated this is not supposed to be available in this manner, no matter if anyone thinks the material inside is worth the read or not. This is a sad look into the mindset of the American Airman; I am ashamed to call y’all my Air Force bretheren.
