|It looks like for a number of servicemembers it will be back to wearing masks indoors regardless of vaccination status:
The Pentagon on Wednesday announced it would once again require all individuals to wear face coverings when indoors at Defense Department facilities in locations deemed high risk by federal health officials for the spread of coronavirus.

It comes one day after the national Centers for Disease Control and Prevention issued new guidance encouraging vaccinated Americans to don masks indoors in certain locations where the coronavirus is spreading rapidly.

The CDC guidelines were based on a study that failed peer review and was withdrawn.
