JOINT BASE MYER-HENDERSON HALL, Va. - JBM-HH officials: Department of Defense ID cards with social security numbers should be replaced for easier access with AIE II Plus system
Some military retirees and their spouses will have to get new Department of Defense identification cards to access Joint Base Myer-Henderson Hall through the new Automated Installation Entry (AIE) II Plus system when it goes active later this summer or in early fall.
The AIE II Plus system is designed to enhance the safety and security of joint base residents, military and civilian personnel as well as visitors.
Older, printed ID cards that have social security numbers on them are not recognized by the AIE II Plus System and should be replaced in order for guards to use ID-card scanning devices that will be in use at joint base gates, according to JBM-HH officials.
Andrew Middleton, chief of the joint base DEERS/ID Card Section, said it’s a simple matter to replace an old card.
“They can just come in to get them replaced,” he said. “Bring in two forms of ID, of course. “Typically, the old ID card would be the first one, then a driver’s license or birth certificate would be the second form of ID.”
Social security numbers were removed from printed ID cards beginning in June of 2011 and have been replaced with a DoD ID number, Middleton said. Those who already have DoD ID numbers need not take any action; their ID cards will be recognized.
Those who have the older ID cards with printed social security numbers and “indefinite” instead of DoD benefits numbers and set expiration dates are retirees, according to Middleton.
To help facilitate transition to the newer DoD ID cards, representatives from the JBM-HH DEERS/ID Card Section will be available at this year’s JBM-HH Retiree Appreciation Day Oct. 9 at the JBM-HH Community Center to answer questions and provide information regarding retiree and other forms of DoD ID cards.
“Any retiree who may want to have their ID card updated or replaced will be assisted in doing so,” said Douglas A. Russell, JBM-HH’s Military Personnel Division chief. The MPD’s ID/DEERS section is in Bldg. 202, Custer Road, on the Fort Myer portion of the joint base next to the pool complex.
Russell also noted that his team is working to procure a mobile ID card system for the Retiree Appreciation Day, which would allow retirees to obtain new ID cards at the event. If the mobile system is not available for the Oct. 9 event, the JBM-HH ID card facility will dedicate an ID card station at the Bldg. 202 office strictly for retirees that day, according to Russell.
The AIE II Plus System verifies the identify of individuals who are seeking admittance to the joint base by using Army-approved access standards that are matched against the Federal Bureau of Investigation’s National Crime Information Center and other federal law enforcement databases.
The AIE II Plus System scans registered ID cards for criminal backgrounds and security alerts and detects when a card holder has been denied access to an installation or base. The AIE system is designed to enhance the safety and security of the joint base community, according to JBM-HH officials.
JBM-HH officials are encouraging those with the older DoD ID cards with the printed social security numbers to replace them by the end of October to ensure easier access to the joint base.
Updated ID cards that no longer have a social security number as an identifier will be accepted at all installations that use the AIE II Plus system.
