The Dover Air Force Base Area Defense Counsel (ADC) provides free representation to Airmen on matters ranging from the Air Force Office of Special Investigations (OSI)and Security Forces Investigations, Administrative Discharges, and Court-Martials. 

Many Airmen join the military for the privilege to serve, live overseas and receive a free education.  However, these possibilities and benefits are put at risk when an airman receives a piece of administrative paperwork, such as an Article 15 or Letter of Counseling (LOC).  Rather than feeling like they must fight alone, the Dover AFB ADC is ready to fight.  Although the ADC is ready to assist, they cannot reach out to Airmen.  Airmen have to contact the office and request representation.

The legal advice provided by the ADC is privileged and confidential.  Also, because the ADC is a tenant unit that falls outside of the chain of command of the 436th Airlift Wing and 512th Airlift Wing, the ADC can provide independent representation to protect Airmen’s rights and ensure any adverse action served on an airman is fair and legally sufficient.
