Two U.S. Military Branches Announce More COVID Vax Reversals

Air Force Reverses ‘Adverse Actions’ Against Those Who Sought Vaccine Exemption for Religious Reasons

By Dayton Daily News. The Air Force will reverse disciplinary or “adverse” actions taken against members who had requested an exemption from the mandate to get the COVID-19 vaccine for religious reasons, the Air Force said Friday. . .

All military services have until March 17 to rescind their COVID-19 vaccination policies, according to a Pentagon memo released Friday,

The Air Force will remove “adverse information” from records of service members who sought an exemption on religious, administrative, or medical grounds and who had those actions taken against them “solely due to their refusal to take the vaccine,” the service said.

Service members do not need to initiate any actions for their records to be updated, the Air Force said. (Read more from “Air Force Reverses ‘Adverse Actions’ Against Those Who Sought Vaccine Exemption for Religious Reasons” HERE)

The Marine Corps Lifts Its Deployment COVID-19 Vaccine Requirement

By Marine Corps Times. The Marine Corps is no longer blocking Marines who are unvaccinated against COVID-19 from overseas deployments, a Corps spokesman has confirmed to Marine Corps Times.

“There are no current COVID-19 vaccine restrictions on deployments or assignments for the Marine Corps as a service,” Capt. Ryan Bruce told Marine Corps Times Wednesday. “Marines will defer to Combatant Command policies regarding deployments.”

In December 2022, Secretary of the Navy Carlos Del Toro had cautioned that repealing the mandate would create two categories of troops: those who could deploy and those who couldn’t.

But now, COVID-19 vaccination status no longer determines whether troops in the Department of the Navy can deploy. The Navy also recently scrapped its vaccination requirement for deployments, making the announcement via naval administrative message.

That NAVADMIN, which applied specifically to the Navy, acknowledged that the policies of some host countries could “create conditions-based criteria for liberty.” (Read more from “The Marine Corps Lifts Its Deployment COVID-19 Vaccine Requirement” HERE)
