Hurricane Helene Information


Fort Eisenhower remains under CONTROLLED ACCESS.
 
As of THURSDAY, 3 OCT, I am defining CONTROLLED ACCESS as allowing for:  mission essential personnel, first responders, and residents of Fort Eisenhower. Commanders at echelon will define mission essential personnel for operational and installation-wide missions.
 
As we sequentially restore services for beneficiaries in the coming days, I will re-define the controlled access definitions to allow for more DOD ID card holders and beneficiaries to return to the installation as needed (i.e. retirees & dependents able to return to AAFES and Commissary)
 
When we have fully established services, training, and operations and it is safe to do so, I will restore the installation OPEN, which means that only standard restrictions to entrance apply (e.g. non-ID card holders, individuals with warrants, etc).
