required?

A

Includes items such as aircraft engines, hand tools and shop equipment, firearms, ammunition and
explosives, individual clothing and equipment, office machines, photographer equipment and supplies,
communication/electronic equipment and parts, and vehicular equipment and parts. These items require
special control to prevent pilferage but which do not meet the definition of any other pilferage code,

91
Q

What type of items fall into very-high-risk category I?

A

Complete man-portable nonnuclear missiles and rockets when in a ready to fire configuration (i.e., Redeye, Stinger, and LAW).

Unique sized and shaped boxes, tanks, and other containers.
Prepositioned equipment.
Technical representatives.

98
Q

What are the major goals of the AF nuclear surety program?

A

To achieve maximum safety consistent with operational requirements, to maintain our record of zero
accidental or unauthorized nuclear yields and to reduce the potential for, and the possible effects of, nuclear
mishaps.

99
Q

What are the criteria for the selection and retention of individuals who work around nuclear
weapons?

A

Individuals who are emotionally stable and have demonstrated good judgment and professional
competence

100

A

The commander

102
Q

What are at least three mandatory selection requirements a person must meet prior to being

Have the required security clearance or investigation

103
Q

What are the requirements for individuals who make up a two-person concept team?

A

Individuals are certified under PRP, know the nuclear surety requirements of the task they perform, can
promptly detect an incorrect act or unauthorized procedure, have successfully completed nuclear surety
training, and are designated to perform the required task.

104
Q

When may a two-person team member go unobserved temporarily?

A

Momentarily, when performing certain tasks

105
Q

What is each team member’s responsibility in the two-person concept?

A

To enforce the two-person concept until relieved by authorized personnel or until the nuclear weapon or
critical component is secured, take immediate, positive steps to prevent or stop incorrect procedures or
unauthorized acts, and report deviations immediately to the appropriate supervisor.

106
Q

When are you authorized to deviate from the two-person concept?

A

When the nuclear weapon system safety rules specifically authorize a deviation or during an emergency
that presents an immediate threat to the safety of personnel or the security of a nuclear weapon or critical
component.

107
Q

What are three personnel restrictions to watch for while performing two-person duties?

A

Two interim-certified individuals may not form a two-person concept team.
A person who does not qualify as a member of a two-person concept team may enter a no-lone zone
to perform a task only if escorted by a two-person concept team.

108
Q

What is a no-lone zone?

A
