The JBLM Physical Security Office (Security and Access Control) provides risk assessments, program compliance inspections, intrusion detection design; and installation, maintenance, and monitoring for both Army and USAF units on Lewis Main, Lewis North, McChord Field and Yakima Training Center. The PSO also assists service members, family members, and Department of Defense civilians in the protection, physical security and loss prevention of personnel, assets, weapons and equipment for all units assigned to the installation. The PSO also hosts the JBLM Physical Security Council, which is incorporated with the JBLM Protection Working Group.

Physical Security Inspection:

Each organization on JBLM normally has an assigned Physical Security Inspector (PSI), however, current manning does not allow for this.  For questions about program compliance and scheduling inspections,     e-mail usarmy.jblm.imcom.list.des-physical-security.  Office phone numbers to call are 253-966-7153 or 253-976-9275.

Access to regulations and inspection checklists can be found on the ✪ Physical Security SharePoint Site.

JBLM Cantonment Gate Key Sign Out:

A unit that requires access to a training area from one of JBLM's cantonment gates (pedestrian/vehicle), will need to make an appointment through e-mail to sign out a key.    For appointments, e-mail usarmy.jblm.imcom.list.des-cantonment-gate-key-appointment@army.mil

We are located in bldg 2007, offices 309, 313, 314, and 318.

Something to think about:

Take the time to protect your unit and to protect yourself. Make sure equipment and tools are accounted for and properly secured when you leave your work area. Do not leave your military items or personal property visible in your vehicle.
