However, the Air Force now allows its members to request LEOSA credentialing. There is a list of criteria that a security force member must meet. ... If an Airman is in the Reserves, Guard or retired they must fulfill a minimum service requirement and still maintain weapons qualification through their state’s requirements.

Anyone know of any possiblity of this permission extending to retired military with DE CCDW? Moosie, where are you?

Currently under review.

MacDill AFB in TX has allowed authorized personnel to "transport and secure privately owned handguns in privately owned vehicles". So far, Dover AFB doesn't agree.

"In December, Col. David Benson, commander of the 7th Bomb Wing at Dyess, decided to allow authorized personnel to transport and secure privately owned handguns in privately owned vehicles within the legal boundaries of Dyess Air Force Base provided they possess a current and valid Texas Concealed Handgun License or a reciprocating state concealed carry license.

Benson’s decision does not permit carrying concealed weapons on base. And individuals wishing to transport a handgun must also have a valid Department of Defense identification card or Common Access Card and hold status as active-duty personnel, reserve personnel, National Guard personnel, retired military personnel, dependents of active-duty personnel or Department of Defense civilians."

No chance of that happening. I am retired military (Military Police) with LEOSA credentials and I am not allowed to carry on base. It will be limited to active duty.
