Naval bases are even worse. The Navy personnel are not allowed to carry pocketknives and/or multitools with knives on them. In the USMC it was expected that every Marine have a knife of somesort. Very handy.
On another note, I can see where this is going to go. You see, you cannot carry on bases, but you can own. If you are single, your weapon has to be stored in an armory (Which is a pain because that means you have to wait on their personnel to even show up to let you have it). If you are married and in Base Housing you are allowed to keep it in the house. I don't know if this goes for all services though. Now, they are probably going to take away the right to have a gun in your home on base. Any military member here can probably testify that Base housing can be a terror at times. When we went to war, some military wives were raped outside their own base house. My wife kept getting disturbing phone calls and had an attempted break in. I bought my Walther P99 the first week I returned from Iraq. Luckily never had to use it for defense yet.
