U.S. Customs and Border Protection agents will work alongside base security at three Marine installations as part of a pilot program to prevent foreign nationals from unlawfully accessing the bases.

Marine Corps Base Camp Pendleton, California officials announced the program on May 16. Officials told Military.com that the initiative will also take place at Marine Corps bases Quantico and Hawaii.


“Marine and family readiness start at our bases and stations, and the safety and security of our Marines, sailors, family members, civilian employees and all who work and have proper access to Marine Corps installations are of the utmost importance,” Capt. Kevin Uebelhardt, a spokesperson for Headquarters Marine Corps, said in an email statement.

Officials at Camp Pendleton did not disclose how many times unauthorized access had occurred at the facility in recent years or provide further details regarding the origin of any individuals who had unlawfully obtained access to the base.

The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address

I've been through military base check points around the world more than a few times.  That was over 50 years ago before they had all the electronic snooping snuff.  There is a piece of something missing here.
