AMDOs and per diem with a VP outfit

[wrecklessfool]

Every time anyone mentions VP squadrons or P-3s on Air Warriors, it's not long before someone brings up how sweet the per diem is when deployed. As I understand, these rates apply to aviators and flight officers. Who else in the squadron is entitled to per diem when deployed OCONUS? I am specifically wondering about AMDOs, but a complete list would be nice too. Thanks!

Anyone on official travel is entitled to per diem.

Every member of the squadron that deploys on official travel, either on a normal full squadron deployment or short term detachment will get per diem for the duration of the travel. Ranges from $3.50 to maybe $200 per day depending on location and availability of lodging/meals.
