How is AFAP Accomplished?
Fort Rucker will host an AFAP conference that will bring together representatives of the TOTAL ARMY. These representatives, serving as conference delegates, will evaluate issues that effect our quality of life at Fort Rucker and throughout the Army.

What qualifies as an AFAP issue?
Issues that affect everyone at Fort Rucker or the Global Army are good AFAP issues. The focus should be on improving facilities, changing policy or regulation, and just making things work better for everyone. Issues may be on pay and allowance, readiness, retention and training, single Soldier issues, PCS moves, medical, dental, schools, childcare, AAFES,  MWR activities, and volunteers.

What is not an AFAP issue?
Remember issues should focus on improving the quality of life for everyone, not just one persons “Pet Rock”. If you are having problems with a facility or particular organization then please report to the commander or manager of that facility or you may wish to go online to http://ICE.DISA.mil to make a customer comment about any military installation and their services.
