FAQs

Can military members or civilian employees of DoD and the armed services serve as officers of ASMC in their official government capacities?

Answer: Member FAQs

As staffing across all of our organizations continues to decline, many organizations are telling civilian employees that ASMC events are not official and that employees must take leave to attend. Is there any legal policy which states that ASMC activities are legal and appropriate for appropriated fund civilians so they are not charged leave?
