This week at the base, TSgt. MCCULLEY and I went over last weeks blotter entries for the weekly staff briefing . For the briefing, the only thing that is needed to be given to the commander is anything that would have a report number or if it is in red or blue text indicating that there was an incident that had occurred around the time. Anything that is not in those parameters is not included in the staff briefing. Also since there are times when I get there, MCCULLEY is on the installation and has to come out of the installation, I was issued a d-bids card. This card will allow me to get cleared through the gate and onto the installation. To get a d-bids card you must give them your license and you are ran through LEIN, which pulls up your record so they can see if you have been charged with any crimes or violations. If you do have something on your record, they will deny you entry because it is possible that you will cause harm while you are on the installation. If you pass that part, they take both fingerprints from both of your index fingers. After that you have to take a picture and wait for the card to finish being processed and printed. After that you get your newly issued d-bids card and license back. The d-bids card only works for a certain amount of time and after that time is over, it will no longer continue to work.

This week at the base, TSgt. MCCULLEY and the others of the 127th wing had a team building exercise. After telling me about that TSgt. MCCULLEY and I went down to supply again to see MSgt. FRENCH and MSgt. STOCKETT about an email list of all people on and off the base. The list was needed so that way we could inform people about information specific to the base and of any updates that they may have missed. Also, MCCULLEY had STOCKETT help him send in a request for leave during the summer for personal time. Later on, when I went back for another the JAG office had the Macomb County prosecutor Eric Smith come down to the base. The reason for his visit was to teach them and inform them on the specific laws of carrying a CPL since they are going to allow personnel on installation carry. It is like the class that you need to take to get a CPL but with the prosecutor. This took up the majority of the day and it was very fun and interesting. After all that, we had to go back to his office and submit a few reports and file a few documents.
At the base TSgt. MCCULLEY and I spent about forty minutes in his office working on filing all the reports and tickets issued over the course of 2016. Most of the tickets were issued to people who were either speeding or ran through a stop sign, nothing major like a DUI. After we got through most of the papers, we went down to B-Doc to go retrieve a report that he had to go over and revise. Before we left, TSgt. MCCCULLEY spoke with airmen TRUMAN about the specifics of the LE conference they were going to and what exactly it was going to be about. After, we headed down to supply so that TSgt. MCCULLEY could go see MSgt. FRENCH and MSgt. STOCKETT. TSgt. MCCULLEY had to go over some issues with the computers systems about to be out dated and the sixty two thousand dollars that they were going to use to update it would most likely not be happening because it is not viable. After going over all the specifics, TSgt. MCCULLEY spoke with MSgt. STOCKETT about his LE conference and another trip they were going to take which he was paying for. They went over what they planned to do and what was to be expected. After that we returned to the office to finish the rest of the filing.During the week, TSgt. MCCULLEY and I went to the legal building on the installation to set up a meeting with those who work there. The meeting was to inform them that someone would be coming down to the base that would fill them in on what they need to know about concealed carry on the installation. Afterwards, we went down to Supply to meet with MSgt. French about the concern of the light pole that had to be replaced and other issues. We then returned to the office and began to organize all reports and logs into their respective files. We are supposed to keep reports for up to four years in case someone wants to go back and look at a certain report or if a report is connected to a current one. Next, we dropped off books containing information about rules and regulations that would be better off at B-doc. For the rest of the week TSgt. MCCULLEY and I went on patrol and reorganized his office by removing items that were no longer supposed to be in there and recycling all papers and files that were no longer needed. Plus, I got to go to the financial building which is where most of the personnel working on the installation go for finances and where all the financing for everything on the base is located.
