How do I get in touch with my younger brother in the Air Force? My family hasn't heard from him in months. I was the last person he talked to on the phone, which was back in August, and we chatted like normal. From my perspective, him being radio silent for months is normal, but since everyone was freaking out, I decided to call the military police about a month ago and they said he was fine. He sent me a text saying he's decided to see a mental health counselor at his base. I haven't received a text from him since. Also haven't been able to call him since that previous call from August. No one else has heard from him though, not even his old friends from home. He's known to have depressive episodes.

two options

red cross

or if you know the unit that he is assigned to, look up that unit, then try to find the units CQ number and ask them for the units first sergeants number or see if you can find the firdt sergeants number directly.

No one knows his unit number, which is why I had to call the MP in the first place. What does the Red Cross do?
>>
>>35016304
the red cross will be able to find which unit he is attached to and notify his chain of command that youre trying to get in touch with him.

Good luck. Probably getting 'ultraed as we speak

actually i may be stupid. red cross may be reserved for emergencies only.

i will guarantee you though that they will be able to get the message to your brothers chain of command though.

>>35016319
I appreciate it though. I'll hit up Red Cross once I, myself, start to get worried. Again, him being radio silent for months is normal from my perspective (it's also something I used to do at times, and our dad also does it for most of the people in his life). He did tell me he was planning to come home for Christmas, so if no one hears from him around that time, I'll try something.
>>
>>35016338
no problem, i didnt do anything.

probably common knowledge but air force members do fill out a list of emergency contacts, and fill out to whom their remains will be given to in the case of death.
>>
he's probably passed out from all the steak and champagne

Huhuh. The Chair Force.
