Heads up: New rules on DoD property

Post by GunnyGene » Fri Apr 10, 2020 7:24 am

Commissary patrons and anyone else entering any DoD property for any reason: This applies to YOU!.

Gotta mask up, but still can't carry a gun. What's an honest cowboy to do? :roll:

Excerpt:

https://www.commissaries.com/our-agency ... e-covering

DeCA guidance requires employees, customers to have a face covering to enter commissaries | Commissaries

FORT LEE, Va. – Commissaries are requiring some form of face covering for store employees and customers to enter a commissary.

The Defense Commissary Agency (DeCA) guidance is effective April 10 and applies to all agency stores and other facilities worldwide where no local directive has yet been issued, said Rear Adm. (Ret.) Robert J. Bianchi, DOD special assistant for commissary operations.

“If an installation commander has already issued a directive to require face coverings in DeCA commissaries, this order shall not supersede their policy, and all patrons and employees shall adhere to current rules,” Bianchi said. “Many bases have already imposed this requirement, but at locations where there is no guidance, this is protection of our employees and our customers.”

DeCA’s guidance falls in line with April 5 Department of Defense guidance mandating that “all individuals on DoD property, installations, and facilities will wear cloth face coverings when they cannot maintain 6 feet of social distance in public areas or work centers.”

I got that email yesterday. I don't plan on going anyway. Ft. Campbell,KY is my closest, it's an hour & half one way from me.

I went today here at Charleston AFB. They were requiring a mask. Some folks masks were pretty sketchy. Only allowing retirees on the weekends. Might want to check your Commisary's website before going to see what restrictions they have.

I did get a package of TP when I was there. Waahooo. Had to decide between the smaller package of the brand my wife prefers, or the big package of a different brand. Went with the small one. Safer that way.
