Before that, if you had a sticker, they would wave you through.
Ever since then, they checked EVERYONE's ID.

At first people were like, yay! Defend the base,
Then people got annoyed with it.
I Guess people have pretty much accepted it now.

I came in, in 2002. I had a base sticker for the first 4 years I was in. I was waved in at Charleston AFB, and Shriever AFB (Colorado Springs). In 2006 they canx'd them.

Here is proof. Wasnt 2006 but I was close it was 2007.
Air Force Eliminates the Requirement for Vehicle Decals

Dyess is the first base I didnt have to have one on the car. I got to Dyess in 07. I am still active duty (10 years).
