As a retired NCO, my first call would have been not to the Provost Marshal, but to the Post Command Sergeant Major. It has been my experience that, should you want a knot jerked in someone's tail, Sergeant Majors are the folks to see. I've seen them quietly and politely chew a brigadier general's biblical beast of burden.
My two cents' worth: the gate guard was confused/improperly briefed on post regs.
I'm a retired Army MP and I agree with the above. You could also call the MP Desk Sergeant. He/She should and likely will know all the ins and outs of the post policies and have the ability to jerk said knot when it needs jerking. At least I did when I was a Desk Sgt in Bamberg Germany many years ago.
