So, from other posts I have read asking the same question, this is at the very least frowned upon. I have not seen any posts from members that have reported back saying they were successful. SOF is a relatively cheap destination and if your hotel has free parking, I would imagine that is the safest solution. You never know downstream, someone (team) in BAH may be tasked to go back and check these things, which may affect your status in the future, in my humble opinion of course.
