(2) Access to classified defense information. A person has access to classified information when he is permitted to gain knowledge of the information, or to be in a place where he would be expected to gain such knowledge. A person does not have access to classified information merely by being in a place where classified material is kept, provided security measures prevent him from gaining knowledge of the information.

(b) Requests for permission to visit. Individual requests to visit an installation should be referred to the installation commander for approval or disapproval. All requests for permission to visit AF installations or activities which will involve access to classified information will:

(1) Be in writing, and be made early enough to permit appropriate action by the commander.

(ii) Written authority for admission. Approval for visitors to AF installations to have access to classified information must be given in writing.

(iii) Concurrences and notices. Whenever practical, the official who approves a request to visit another AF installation should coordinate with the commander of that installation for concurrence or recommendation before finally approving the visit. In all cases, the official who approves such a visit will promptly notify the commander concerned. He will also specify any limitations or restrictions to be placed upon the visitor.

(2) Visits not involving access to classified information. United States citizens and foreign nationals who will not have access to classified information may be admitted to AF installations on the authority of the commander concerned. However, they must not be allowed in any place where mere presence would afford them access to or knowledge of classified information.

(1) The commander of an AF installation will cause any such person to be detained, warned of his rights, and interrogated as soon as possible by proper authority. If there is no evidence of intent to violate the regulations the person

may be warned against repetition and released. Otherwise, the commander will promptly notify the nearest office of the Office of Special Investigations by the fastest means available.

"No enlisted member of the Air Force on active duty may be ordered or permitted to leave his post to engage in a civilian pursuit or business, or a performance in civil life, for emolument, hire, or otherwise, if the pursuit, business or performance interferes with the customary or regular employment of local civilians in their art, trade, or profession."

(3) In addition to the statutory limitations, the Secretary of Defense has set forth policies for effective and economical utilization of Armed Forces bands in connection with public events, demonstrations, ceremonies, and other activities in the civilian domain. Such policies are implemented by this part.

(b) Responsibilities. Installation commanders will determine whether the use of an Air Force band at a public gathering conflicts with the provisions of the statutes quoted in paragraph (a) of this section, and will enforce instructions governing the use of Air Force bands. Installation commanders are authorized to approve participation of Air Force bands in local events or activities in the vicinity of the installation at no cost to the Government. Commanders approving such participation will be guided by the following examples of suitability (except in the Washington, D.C., area where authority for approval is vested solely in the Secretary of Defense):

(1) Whenever or wherever they function as a part of or in conjunction with other elements or components of United States military forces. The music may be broadcast or telecast with the other features of the program.

Such occasions do not include social occasions and entertainments these officers attend as guests-such as dinners and luncheons given by civilians or civic associations.

(4) Broadcasts and telecasts of concerts, when such programs are not for commercial purposes and originate on military or naval reservations or vessels.

(5) Broadcasts and telecasts originating on or off a military or naval reservation or vessel: (i) When such programs are of value to the Service concerned. (ii) Provided that all proper clearances are secured by the sponsors with respect to musical rights, labor agreements, etc. (iii) When such programs are not for commercial purposes. (iv) When such programs are for purely recruiting drives or to present to the public certain matters which the Air Force considers important enough to require radio or television dissemination.

(6) Musical programs at any United States Government hospital for the entertainment of patients.

(7) Concerts in the Capitol grounds, government buildings, and public parks of the City of Washington, D.C., which are open to the public free of charge.

(8) Free social and entertainment activities conducted exclusively for the benefit of enlisted personnel and their guests in service clubs and social centers maintained for the use of enlisted personnel on active duty.

(9) Official occasions and free social and entertainment activities held off military installations, if such activities are conducted exclusively for the benefit of military personnel on active duty and their guests.

(10) Parades and ceremonies incident to patriotic occasions, or gatherings of personnel of the Armed Forces, veterans, or patriotic organizations, which are nonpolitical community affairs, nonsectarian, and nonprofit.

(11) Fund drives for officially recognized Armed Forces relief or charitable organizations, and for civilian charitable organizations, such as the United Givers Fund, Community Chest, Red Cross, National Health Agencies, and Joint Crusade as a group, when the benefits are donated to these agencies. Note: Fund drives of a local party, sect, or similar group whether for charitable or other purposes, are not considered appropriate occasions for the use of Air Force bands.

(12) Athletic contests in which one or more Armed Forces teams are participating. Band participation is not authorized in commercialized athletic events or in events which have no connection with the military mission and are sponsored and conducted to promote commercial interests, such as Christmas shopping.

The commander of a command exercising general court-martial jurisdiction, or a wing or base commander when authorized by the officer exercising general court-martial jurisdiction, may, in accordance with Article 14 of the Uniform Code of Military Justice (64 Stat. 112; 50 U.S.C. 568), authorize the delivery of a member of the Air Force under his command, when such member is accused of a crime or offense made punishable by the laws of the jurisdiction making the request, to the civil authorities of the United States or of a State of the United States under the conditions prescribed in this part.

§ 813.2 Policy.

(a) Offenses punishable by imprisonment for more than one year. The general policy of the Air Force is to turn over to the civil authorities of the Federal Government or a State of the United States, upon their request, members of the Air Force charged with a civil offense punishable by imprisonment for more

than one year, when such request is accompanied by a copy of the indictment, information, or other document which may be used in the particular jurisdiction to prefer formal charges of the commission of a criminal offense. In addition, the general policy of the Air Force is to turn over to Federal authorities, upon their request, members of the Air Force for whom a warrant of arrest has been issued for a Federal offense punishable by imprisonment for more than one year, when such request is accompanied by a statement from a United States attorney that an indictment will be sought and that substantial grounds exist for belief that an indictment will be returned.

(b) Offenses punishable by imprisonment for one year or less. Upon request of civil authorities for the delivery of a member of the Air Force charged with an offense punishable by imprisonment for one year or less, the commander authorized to deliver will exercise his discretion after consideration of the nature of the offense charged, other facts and circumstances, and the existing military situation. The request for delivery will be accompanied by a copy of the information or other document which may be used in the particular jurisdiction to prefer formal charges.

(c) Request for delivery by a State other than the State in which person requested is located. With respect to extradition process, military personnel may be considered to be in the same status as persons not members of the Armed Forces. It is contrary to the general policy of the Air Force to transfer members of the Air Force from a station within one State to a station within another State for the purpose of making such person amenable to civilian legal proceedings. Accordingly, if the delivery of a member of the Air Force is requested by a State other than the State in which he is located, the authorities of the requesting State may be required to complete extradition process according to the prescribed procedures to obtain custody of a person from the State in which the individual is located and to make arrangements to take the individual into custody there.

§ 813.3 Procedure for delivery.

(a) Delivery to State authorities. Prior to making delivery to civil authorities of a State, the commander having authority to deliver will obtain from the Governor or other duly authorized officer of such State, a written agreement substantially in the following form:

In the consideration of the delivery of

(Name, grade, and service number) United States Air Force to

at for trial upon the charge of I hereby agree, pursuant to the authority vested in me as that the commander of will be informed of the outcome of the trial and that said will be returned to Air Force authorities at the aforesaid place of his delivery, or issued transportation thereto without expense to the United States or to the person delivered, immediately upon completion of his trial upon the charge aforesaid in the event that he is acquitted upon said trial, or immediately upon satisfying the sentence of the court in the event that he is convicted and a sentence imposed, or upon other disposition of his case, unless the Air Force authorities shall have indicated that return is not desired.

The Air Force considers this agreement substantially complied with when the Air Force authority who delivered the accused is informed of his prospective release for return to Air Force authorities, and when the individual is furnished transportation back to his station together with necessary funds to cover his incidental expenses en route thereto.

(b) Delivery to Federal authorities. Persons desired by the Federal authorities for trial will be called for and taken into custody by a United States marshal, deputy marshal, or other officer authorized by law upon agreement that the alleged offender will be returned to the custody of the Air Force immediately after having answered to the civil authorities for his offense, including service of any unsuspended sentence to confinement, except where the Air Force has advised the Federal authorities that the return of the offender is not desired. (At the time of delivery, the United States marshal, deputy marshal, or other officer should be advised, in writing, as to the location of the Air Force station nearest the place of trial where the delivered person may be returned to the custody of the Air Force.)
