New Mexico: Access to Holloman Air Force Base Requires a Fingerprint

New DBIDS requirements ensure safety, ease of access (Holloman Air Force Base)
After a brief hiatus to upgrade the software on the 49th Security Forces Defense Biometric Identification System, as of Feb. 1 hand-held scanners are being used again at all three gates at Holloman AFB.

Using barcode technology and fingerprints to verify the access authorization of everyone entering the installation, DBIDS is the latest step in helping security forces here improve safety and security for the Holloman community and its resources.
