Ok so this wife has lied to our BC in different occasions for different reasons, she has created drama, rumors and conflict in the unit with spouses and soldiers and today she was harboring an ex-soldier who was missing for over a week.

Not just banned from on post, but could probably get banned from every military installation depending on the situation.

Probably, yes. If the civilian commits a crime on a military installation or otherwise interferes with the mission, my guess is the installation commander can bar them from entry. The act or series of actions would probably need to be well documented and investigated with the JAG reviewing the recommendation before the Commander would issue a letter to the civilian notifying them that they are bared from entering the installation.

Yes. I got a wife accusing my Soldier of adulterous relationship with her husband. I issued a no contact order. The wife kept on telling me and 1SG what to do, ban her from post will be next step.

Everybody so far thank you very much. Your input is very well appreciated.

Had a guy in one of my teams who was invited to leave on-base housing due to his (soon to be ex-) wife's behavior... she was banned from the base.

It doesn't happen often however, it can happen! So there we were, in beautiful sunny Fort Polk. The 1SG's wife gets a DUI on post, becomes Nasty Nelly of the neighborhood and then gets busted for selling the Commanding Generel's son a bag of dope at his birthday party. She was barred from re-entry and was not aloud on post! So, it does happen and when it does it is typically for good reason (the good order and discipline of the unit/post).

yes that can be based. They can even be removed from a state. Back in the 70s we had one such case at Ft Lewis WA. The wife was even escorted by MPs to the airport and the flight...

Huachuca that has a CG, but it is run by the civilians that hang out there for 40 years and retire while they are supposed to be working, I know I worked for a government contractor and we had more that=n our share of DA civilians who forgot the thing called "work".

Yes of course she should be. Her ID Card should also be confiscated. Uncle Sam never issued you a wife, it is the responsibility of every individual soldier to control their dependence. If you can not you do not need to have them.
