  last week the pentagon issued a defense department directive that allows department of defense dd personnel to carry firearms and employ deadly force while performing official duties 
  the defense department has been working on changing the gunfree zones on domestic military basis for several years in light of the deadly shootings at military sites in recent years 
  militarycom reports that the directive also provides detailed guidance to the services for permitting soldiers sailors airmen marines and coast guard personnel to carry privately owned firearms on dod property it authorizes commanders  and aboveto grant permission to dod personnel requesting to carry a privately owned firearm concealed or open carry on dod property for a personal protection purpose not related to performance of an official duty or status 
  the directive also makes clear that dod will consider further changes to grant standard authorizations for other dod personnel who are trained in the scaled use of force or who have been previously qualified to use a governmentissued firearm to carry a firearm in the performance of official duties on dod property this would allow dod with certain combat training to carry firearms without going through the additional step of making application with a commander 
  kim smith at conservative tribune notes that the policy was a response to an nrabacked provision in the  national defense authorization act that required the defense department to allow more service members to carry firearms on base 
  it is a good first step in that it recognizes personal protection is a valid issue for service members but there are many roadblocks in the way of making that option available nra spokeswoman jennifer baker told the washington free beacon  
  those wishing to apply for permission to carry a firearm must be at least  years old and meet all federal state and local laws the directive said 
  it would appear that the pentagon saw no problems with implementing a policy for which presidentelect donald trump has expressed support 
  presidentelect donald trump ran on removing gunfree zones from military bases on july   breitbart news reported that trump pledged to end the gunfree scenarios for us troops by mandating that soldiers remain armed and on alert at our military bases 
  the immediate institution of this directive probably left president barack obama incensed but he undoubtedly realized that there was nothing he could do to prevent its implementation in a couple of months anyway and thats good news because it works to ensure the safety of our troops which should always be a priority
