Base access introduced for Gold Star families
May 4, 2017
Arlene Wagner, Gold Star mother, smiles for a Gold Star Base Access ID card at Joint Base Andrews, Md., May 1, 2017. Wagner was one of the first people to receive the ID card allowing Gold Star families unescorted access to Air Force installations to visit buried loved ones, attend base events, and stop by Airmen and Family Readiness Centers for support. The Gold Star ID program is scheduled for Air Force-wide implementation beginning May 15, 2017. The Air Force initiative refers to parents, grandparents, siblings and adult children of Airmen killed in action, international terrorist attack against the U.S. or military operations while serving outside the U.S. as part of a peacekeeping force.
