DRIVING ON THE INSTALLATION AND IN NY


Some information to assist you while driving on and around the installation. Please be aware that New York State law prohibits the use of cell phones by the driver unless the individual is using a hands free device. Holding the phone in your hand with the speakerphone on is prohibited. Using text message while driving is prohibited in the state. If a police officer suspects you are doing either, they may pull you over. This is a fine of approximatel $150. Headlights are required if your wipers are operating. Headlights are also required 30 minutes prior to sunset and 30 minutes after sunrise. While driving on the installation, please decrease speed to 10MPH when passing Soldiers engaged in training on the shoulder of the road or performing PT.

GATE PROCEDURES
At this time, it is possible to enter Fort Drum without signing in at the gate and without a military ID. Please ensure you have the items listed below and that the up-to-date documents are in your vehicle. Passengers, 16 years and older, may be asked to provide identification. Photo Drivers License / Photo ID Vehicle Registration Vehicle Insurance Card The gate personnel will scan all identification. Individuals with outstanding legal issues or criminal records may be refused access to the installation. Please note, all vehicles entering Fort Drum are subject to 100% search by the military police and / or Department of Defense Police. Any personnel with restricted items may face legal action. Please ensure all weapons are removed from the vehicle prior to attempting to enter the installation.

VEHICLE INSPECTION
Fort Drum Regulation requires that all vehicles must have a current vehicle safety inspection, regardless of which state the vehicle is registered in. If the vehicle is registered in a state that does not require safety inspections, the owner must obtain a NY State inspection. State inspection costs approximately $21. Spouses can renew inspections prior to the Soldiers return for free at the Auto Craft Center with an appointment. Soldiers returning may drive on

the installation but must have an appointment and be able to prove the appointment if asked by gate personnel or police. NY State does require an updated inspection within 10 days of the Soldiers return. In the interim, A Soldier may obtain a temporary inspection card at the Department of Motor Vehicles. This card will expire within 10 days of issue. INSPECTION STATIONS

WELCOMING THE SOLDIERS HOME


BANNERS
Banners are a wonderful tradition for welcoming our Soldiers home. The Battalion will have company specific banners posted in the welcome home venues for each ceremony. Family members are welcome to post banners for individual Soldiers; however, the family will be responsible for removal of the banners. Banners cannot be posted in the gyms more than 24 hours prior to the ceremony. Please keep banners and signs in good taste. Personalized banners are NOT permitted on the fence line by the airfield and will be removed immediately then thrown away. It is possible to purchase vinyl banners online for minimal cost. Some suggestions are below. www.vistaprint.com (custom banner upload available) www.partybanner.com (has ordnance, HUMVEE and 10th Mtn graphic, free coordinating balloons with banner order) www.buildasign.com (low price, quick turn around)

REDEPLOYMENT CEREMONY
The Soldiers will participate in a brief ceremony before being released to family members. The ceremony normally takes place in Magrath Gym. Traditionally, the ceremony will take place approximately 4 hours after the flight lands at Wheeler Sack Army Airfield. For this reason, the ceremony may be at any time of the day or night. The 4 hours allow the Soldiers to take care of required procedures after landing. Ceremony times are subject to change. It is important that, if you are in the Fort Drum area, you provide the Rear Detachment or FRG current contact information. Changes may take place with little notice. Flights have come in earlier than expected in the past so ceremonies were moved to an earlier time and vice versa. During the time preceding the ceremony, photos or video of the flight and / or Soldiers may be shown in the gym. The ceremony is very short and is open to all family members. Seating is always limited so if you would like a seat it is better to arrive early. The usual agenda for the ceremony is as follows: Soldiers enter the gym to music provided by the 10th Mtn Band (cheers are welcome and encouraged <smile>)
Hammond, Abigail Mrs CIV USA FORSCOMHammond, Abigail Mrs CIV USA FORSCOMAbbie Hammond, FRSA Page 8 2/8/2012

The Commander of Troops will present the Soldiers to the Commanding General (or his representative) The National Anthem is played The Commanding General / Representative will provide welcome home remarks / congratulations on a job well done. The 10th Mountain Division and Army Songs are sung (words are below, please sing along to the tune of Caissons Go Rolling Along) 10TH MOUNTAIN DIVISION SONGCLIMB TO GLORY We are the 10th Mountain Infantry With a glorious history On our own two feet, all our foes well defeat Light Fighters marching on to victory We go where others dare not go In the heat or cold of snow We are proud to be in the Army of the Free Climb to Glory, Mountain Infantry Climb to Glory, the Light Infantry

THE ARMY SONG (Sung to the tune of the original Field Artillery Song) First to fight for the right, and to build the nations might, And THE ARMY GOES ROLLING ALONG. Proud of all we have done, Fighting till the battles won, And THE ARMY GOES ROLLING ALONG. Then its Hi ! Hi ! Hey! The Armys on its way. Count off the cadence loud and strong! For whereer we go, You will always know that THE ARMY GOES ROLLING ALONG.
Hammond, Abigail Mrs CIV USA FORSCOMHammond, Abigail Mrs CIV USA FORSCOMAbbie Hammond, FRSA Page 9 2/8/2012

Conclusion of the ceremony is announced. Family Members rush to embrace their Soldiers News media may request interviews. You may refuse to give an interview if you do not wish to. Soldiers will travel to the baggage pick up point as identified by the Rear Detachment. Families are welcome drive them to the pick up point.

COMMUNICATION PROCEDURES
Soldiers will have a tentative window for their return some time before their flight. However, this is a TENTATIVE date. Soldiers may be bumped from a flight under emergency situations. Approximately 24 hours prior to return, the Rear Detachment should receive a manifest of individuals who were on the flight as it took off. However, final manifest may be received as little as 6 hours prior to the Soldiers arrival. As soon as this manifest is received, the information will be passed on to family members through the FRG channels / Rear Detachment channels with an estimated time for the welcome home ceremony. Soldiers do not fly directly to Fort Drum from Afghanistan; therefore, delays are expected as flights may be grounded due to weather or other issues. Please ensure the Rear Detachment Personnel and FRG Leadership has current phone numbers for you. Any and all phone numbers are welcome. If you are traveling to the area, please provide hotel accommodation information. With this information, we can request a message be left for you at the desk if all other numbers fail.

WEATHER
For purposes of preparation, please be aware that the cold weather can begin in the Fort Drum area as early as October. In 2008, we had our first snowstorm in late October. Temperatures may drop to the high 30s / low 40s in October and remain there through December. By January, temperatures normally drop to the 20s and teens. Layers are best for clothing and warmth. Also, frequent checks of weather is a must. Storms can come in suddenly and snowfalls may vary due to the lakes that surround us. For those who will need to travel up from Syracuse, the Tug Hill Plateau falls between Fort Drum and Syracuse on I-81. This area (between Exits 29-39) may experience heavier snowfalls then both Syracuse and Fort Drum. Road conditions will be posted at the gates as you enter the installation. They are color coded. The definitions follow.
