  • Action Line #80301 - BX Vendor

    Complaint: I am writing about the vendors at the BX. I understand the vendors outside the BX or in the food court but I don't understand how a local vendor has the jewelry counter all to himself.

  • Action Line #80206 - Training Days

    Complaint: I understand that wing training days are a necessary thing, especially for those units in a customer support role who work all day and train very little.

    Complaint: I have a quick question about a possible OPSEC Violation. Everyday in my 12 year military career I have been reminded to practice OPSEC.

  • Action Line 80202 - Vehicle Passes

    Question: Why do we have to get passes for our vehicles and the Turkish soldiers do not? I understand that this is their base but it seems like they are trying more and more to make us uncomfortable. Is it that they don't want us here? I was stationed here 10 years ago and we never had the tension
