I was surprised at the security for a base I visited for work ... sure, they had my visit request in the computer and printed out my badge and all at the checkpoint, but once past that, I could have pretty much gone anywhere on the base (luckily, I knew where I was going, so I didn't surprise any guards driving around or anything!). I figured they would be much more strict, particularly at the facility I was at.
