Eligible veterans get easier access to military bases under new rules

"Under the new rules that took effect Nov. 1, veterans can use their VA-issued Veteran Health Identification Card, VHIC or their REAL ID to enroll for recurring installation access. Those who don’t have a VHIC, as well as eligible caregivers, can use their REAL ID Act-compliant driver’s license or non-driver’s identification card to enroll for installation access at the installation visitor center."
