One-day passes will be issued for DoD ID card holders and guests to the installation. Contractors (or anyone providing a paid service) must be sponsored onto the installation and will need to come to the VCC to obtain access to the installation.

EVENT ACCESS:
Access requests for events taking place at a FGGM facility should be submitted directly to that facility. The facility will then forward the access request to the VCC for posting at the gates. Requests for access to private functions should be submitted directly to the VCC by the ID card holder hosting the event. Please submit NLT 7 days prior to the event. The list will need to include type of event, date, time, location, POC name and phone number, total # of guests, and an alphabetized list of guests by last name.
