## Abstract

The Department of the Air Force has revised its regulations dealing with the Wake Island Code to reflect current and anticipated use. This was necessary because in 1994 the Air Force terminated operations on the island and removed its personnel. The small number of personnel currently on the island work for the Department of the Army or its contractors and it is not anticipated that Wake Island will again host a permanent population.
