Yesterday evening my wife and I had difficulty leaving Fort Belvoir because of changes to the gate rules.
Beginning last weekend, Fort Belvoir changed its gate schedule. "The changes are due to realigning our security manpower resources. Below are all Fort Belvoir gate operation hours effective as of Saturday, April 7:
Tulley Gate remains the 24-hour gate, every day
JJ Kingman, 6 a.m. to 6 p.m., every day
Pence Gate, 5 a.m. to 9 p.m., Weekdays only
Telegraph Gate, 6 a.m. to 6 p.m., Weekdays only
Walker Gate, 6 a.m. to 6 p.m., Weekdays only
We recommend hospital personnel and visitors and Exchange and Commissary customers use Tulley Gate to enter and exit after 6 p.m.
Questions can be directed to Garrison Public Affairs Office, [login to see] . "

No Capt (Join to see). Since I am fully retired we use the Fort Belvoir Community Hospital/Walter Reed Military Medical center network for treatment for my wife.
They call us back for appointments. I have an echocardiogram scheduled for tomorrow at the Fort Belvoir Community Hospital.

I understand. I was trying to make a joke of your having trouble finding a way out with all of the gates closed.
Good luck with the test tomorrow. Just went through that and a 24 hour monitor. They tell me all is okay.

If you live in Kingstowne, and want to go to the PX or Commissary on the weekends, you have to go miles and miles out of your way just to get there. This was not a well thought out plan.

Yesterday, when I was an my cardiology appointment at Fort Belvoir Community Hospital I informed the reception staff about the changes. I was interested that they were unfamiliar with the changes made last weekend.
Since Kingman Road gate is open 0600 to 1800 everyday, people can get to the PX and new commissary from VA 286 within those hours. I concur with you CW3 (Join to see) that it is a problem to me that the PX and commissary are open much longer than Kingman gate is.
