What to know about visitor access:

Visitors, contractors and vendors 18 years and older, entering Redstone Arsenal who do not have a DoD identification card, will be subject to a background check before being allowed entry to the installation. Those who present a common access card (CAC card), Military ID, Military Dependent ID, Gold Star ID, or other valid DoD credential won't be affected. This is to ensure that Redstone Arsenal is in compliance with Homeland Security Presidential Directive 12, which requires that 100 percent of visitors be vetted prior to entering the installation. While this is a DoD-wide initiative, we are doing all we can to streamline the process for accessing Redstone yet ensure the safety and security of the installation.

The REAL ID Act is now enforced in all states and territories.
