1.1.1. This manual includes most Air Force needs in drill and ceremonies, but it does not cover every situation that may arise. For unusual situations, using good judgment and taking into account the purpose of the movement or procedure can often provide the solution. (See AFR 900-6.)
1.1.2. Units or organizations required to drill under arms will use the procedures in US Army Field Manual 22-5, SECNAV 5060.22, or USAF Academy Cadet Wing Manual 50-5. The types of weapon used will determine the appropriate manual.
