Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
How do I file a FOIA request with USSTRATCOM?
Submit a written request to the United States Strategic Command (USSTRATCOM) FOIA
Requester Service Center.
There is no prescribed
format for submitting requests. However, certain information
is required as outlined in the information regarding requests.
Does USSTRATCOM maintain or control access to former Strategic
Air Command (SAC) records?
No. USSTRATCOM is not a successor to SAC. SAC
was an Air Force Command. When SAC was disestablished
in May of 1992, it was as part of a larger Air Force reorganization.
The disestablishment of Military Airlift Command (MAC) and Tactical
Air Command (TAC) was also part of that reorganization.
The forces from the three commands were redistributed to two
new Air Force Commands, Air Combat Command (ACC) and Air Mobility
Command (AMC). The standup of USSTRATCOM was separate
from the Air Force organization. Headquarters, United
States Air Force, or a subordinate Air Force command should
process requests for former SAC records.
Does USSTRATCOM maintain centrally located files?
No. Files are maintained in offices having functional
responsibility for the type of record being requested.
Consequently, an accurate definition of records requested is
very helpful.
May I submit questions as a FOIA request?
Federal Agencies are not required to answer questions, render
opinions, or provide subjective evaluations. A record
must exist and be in possession and control of the DoD at the
time the FOIA request is received. Federal Agencies are
not required to create records in response to a FOIA request.
Who may file a FOIA request?
Any person, including a member of the public (U. S. or foreign
citizen/entity), an organization, or a business, but not including
a Federal Agency or a fugitive from the law, that either explicitly
or implicitly invokes the FOIA,
DoD Directive 5400.7.
As a member of the military (active or reserve) or as
a Federal Government Civilian Employee, may I use Government
facilities to submit a FOIA request?
No. FOIA requests are a personal matter. As such
you may not use Government time, equipment or facilities.
