News Media Reporting on Fort Cavazos
- All news media representatives planning to cover events on Fort Cavazos must be escorted by a member of one of the post's Public Affairs Offices, or will be refused entry to Fort Cavazos. Call 254-287-9993 or 254-287-0106 to request a PAO escort. Escorts should be arranged in advance to allow for coordination with the organization receiving coverage.
- After hours, media should call the Emergency Operations Center at 254-287-2054 and ask for the on-call PAO.
- Members of the news media who have a personal affiliation with the military (retiree, spouse or family member) and have a military identification card are instructed to call the Garrison PAO media relations office at the numbers above for escort when reporting a story. Due to the limited number of PAO staff members available to provide escort, media are asked to request escort support as far in advance as possible.
- The media are reminded that security precautions and federal regulations prohibit unlimited access to military installations and media representatives found unescorted by a representative of a Public Affairs Office are subject to confiscation of cameras and recorders and may be subject to prosecution by the federal court system.
- Current security regulations require all vehicles entering Fort Cavazos to present current vehicle registration and proof of insurance as well as being subject to a complete inspection.
