I believe you still need a passport. If you are taking a MAC flight contact AMC at Kadena.

NO. No longer can servicemembers travel on just an ID and orders., they MUST have a passport. this is for his safety. several years ago, a plane was hijacked with servicemembers on board. they were singled out and killed because they did not have passports, only US military IDs which made them a prime target for the hijackers.

Military IDs do not replace passports any more. I tried.
