I enjoy a quick entrance onto base in the morning, but is that worth jeopardizing security. The new card scanners are a great feature, however they take the human element of visually inspecting the ID out. What if someone steals a valid ID, now they don't have to even match the picture to get base access. Also I can already see with the amount of cyber threats that a hacker could access the system and put in an accepted bar code and then create a card that doesn't even have to look like a CAC to gain access. Just don't think this technology is worth the security threat of not matching card to person.

My question is how is it decided when and how long to use the scanners? And why different branches bases have different ID requirements.
I do think it is great to have the CAC readers, but I do think it takes out the human element of looking at the person and the ID.

Great point. I wonder if they are cross referenced with on post registered vehicles.
If it can be replicated, I am sure there are some smart folks out there that can figure out how to make the ID card.
I think you have to have the human element. If you don't those guys may be in the guard shack goofing off on their phones not paying attention to anything. (I am not saying that is what they are doing but I like to play devil's advocate)
