Ok I conceal carry off base. You have to cause people are crazy. The same crap happens on base. We carry M4s and stupid junk 9mm. Oh don't forget the machine guns. And everything else. People go crazy wveryday. Look at Fort Hood or Fort Knox for example. This is stupid we should have the right to carry to protect ourselves. Some states are letting teachers to conceal carry. That is awesome. The world changes why are we not? To worried about people cussing I guess.

To answer your question SFC Marcus Howard, President Clinton is the one who prohibited it with an Exevutive Order that became law. I think it was titled the Safe Military Installations something-or-other.

Actually, this is untrue. The Department of Defense Directive was issued in 1992 then implemented in March 1993 by the Department of the Army.

Sgt Ervin... Unsure why it put my statement under your reply. My apologies. The system is not allowing me to correct this but will work to remove it from yours.

SFC (Join to see) too many REMFs that are afraid of guns/weapons. Several years ago I had a ltc challenge my carrying a pocketknife in uniform. I don't get it.

Crazy. The military is so weak right now. We need to take it back ad leaders right this minute and make it what it was. All of us need to step up right noe this very minute. If we do 5hat then we get to be the back bone again and make it what it was.
