You would have to have a viable reason/excuse such as due to your current schedule on guard or what ever you are doing doesn't allow you to make it to the dining facility during the normal hours of operation, then with that great reason you would have to get a 4187 with that information on it and the Company commanders signature on it for validation. That 4187 would then need to be taken to either your local finance office or your unit S-1. Most company commanders will not sign off on the 4187 for start/stop BAS unless valid reason for it. If they finance department gets audited and your paperwork gets looked at and is found to be fake/false the company commander can be held liable for all the expenses from the start/stop of the BAS. And to be honest most young Soldiers just want more money, and say that the DFAC does not have good food. The Army is not worried about your likes it is worried about knowing they have provided for you what you need not what you want.

would you consider the Dfac being closed a good/viable reason? my dfac is closed at random days in the week and completely on the weekend. the only open Dfac is about 10-15 minutes away by car, 30-40 during the week @ rushhour with the gates clogged, which is not feasable for the alotted time I am allowed to grab chow.

sorry for the late response, training n such.

PFC (Join to see) are you living in barracks and get card for the chow hall? If so then get married to get BAS and move out. Of course do it for love not just to get out of the barracks and for the BAH.
