    This is gonna be a silly question but as long as I've been drivin I've never picked up or dropped off to an army (or any other) base. I'm dispatched to ft hood in the am for a delivery to new Boston and I'm wondering if anyone has any insight into standards and practices at a base that are specific to said bases?

    Thanks in advance for any salient replies, and even for the comic relief I know is coming lol

    felon= not getting in
    non felon= eventually you will get in sometime between the time the felon was arrested and gets released lol, also be early otherwise it could be an all day event in some cases

    No...I told the broker I didn't have a twic card and he said 'you don't need it for this load'. But like I said it's TQL so I'm not overly optimistic.
