ID and pass rules

Graduations are open to the public; no ticket, RSVP, or guest cap is published. Every adult (18+) without DoD-issued ID in the vehicle must have their own pass -- not just the driver, and REAL ID or an accepted alternative is required even if you already hold an approved pass. Use Key Gate West after obtaining the required passes. Request online passes at pass.aie.army.mil at least 24 hours before arrival; follow any different instructions in your own battery letter. Plan to arrive at least 30 minutes earlier than you normally would to account for the per-person vetting.
