vPC-GR DASHBOARD AND AFPERS WEBSITE (ANG/AFRC) - Effective June 28, 2011, access to vPC-GR will move to the Air Force Personnel Services (AFPERS) website at https://gum-crm.csd.disa.mil. On that date, the current vPC-GR dashboard will redirect customers to the AFPERS site where it can be accessed from the "Quick Links" section. Members will be able to access it either by user ID/password or a Common Access Card (CAC). We highly encourage all Air Force Reserve and Air National Guard vPC-GR users who do not currently have an AFPERS account to set one up today. Linking the vPC-GR Dashboard and integrating Total Force knowledge will make it easier for Airmen to find answers to their personnel questions and process their service requests. For more information, contact the Total Force Service Center - Denver at 800-525-0102.
