This was an information paper that was found during a 2014 FOIA request to CENTCOM. At the time, I requested the following:
“I respectfully request a copy of all documents, electronic or otherwise, that pertain to orders to military personnel and contractors, about how they are expected to observe Ramadan and how they are supposed to act in other countries during this time.”
CENTCOM forwarded the below pages to OSD/JS for review and release, and I was sent them on September 8, 2017.
