Re: My son about to serve his country.
BTW, if you plan on attending his graduation and bringing a handgun..... here is what you can do: Unload and seperate before entering (like fed transport guideline) the installation (once you cross the threshhold of the fence you are on base, not the gate-common misconception). Identify to the gate guard you have a firearm you need to courtesy store while on base. They will get you a SF escort to the armory... You check it in when you get there, pick it up right before you leave and load up as soon as you are off base. If you stay in hotel on base then they do overnight too. The armory has 24 hours ops but I would recommend avoiding it between 0500-0600, 0630-0700, 1200 - 1300, 1330-1400, 0930-2200 and 2230-2300.....
