U.S. Air Force personnel serve our country around the world. U.S. Air Force Chaplains and Chaplain Assistants serve side-by-side with them. The U.S. Air Force Chaplain Corps serves as a visible reminder of the Holy by providing spiritual care and the opportunity for U.S. Air Force members and their families to exercise their constitutional right to freedom of religion.
U.S. Air Force Chaplains are ordained clergy from diverse faith backgrounds as well as commissioned military officers. As clergy, chaplains provide ministry that provides for the free exercise of religion for military members and their families. Chaplains conduct worship services, religious rites and pastoral counseling. As military officers, chaplains uphold the standards of the U.S. Air Force Core Values, "Integrity First, Service Before Self, and Excellence in All We Do." Additionally, chaplains are members of their unit commanders' staff and serve as advisors to commanders regarding religion, religious accommodation for diverse faith groups represented in the U.S. Air Force, ethics, and morale.

To ensure compliance with an applicable preliminary nationwide injunction, which may be supplemented, modified, or vacated, depending on the course of ongoing litigation, the Federal Government will take no action to implement or enforce the COVID-19 vaccination requirement pursuant to Executive Order 14043 on Requiring Coronavirus Disease 2019 Vaccination for Federal Employees. Therefore, to the extent a Federal job announcement includes the requirement that applicants must be fully vaccinated against COVID-19 pursuant to E.O. 14043, that requirement does not currently apply. Federal agencies may request information regarding the vaccination status of selected applicants for the purposes of implementing other workplace safety protocols, such as protocols related to masking, physical distancing, testing, travel, and quarantine.
