Mr. McCaleb,
 
I gave you all the information you needed in order for you to get the base sticker (from Gulfport) for your motorcycle.
 
I will reiterate the information to you one more time.  If the base does not provide the motorcycle course (which Gulfport does not, nor do they have too) then you can get the course in town.  There are two courses offered by The Motorcycle Safety Foundation, the basic (16 hrs) and the experienced (8 hrs).  THE REQUIREMENT IS THAT YOU ATTEND THE BASIC (16 HR) COURSE OF INSTRUCTION TO GET YOUR STICKER.  You attended the experienced.
 
As I explained to you, the basic offers a course of instruction not covered by the experienced.  The experienced course is not a requirement and not needed to get your sticker on the base.
 
I believe you have all the information you need in order to get a base sticker for your motorcycle.  Pls do not hestitate to call or e-mail me if you need further guidance or information.

Mr. McCaleb,

I gave you all the information you needed in order for you to get the base sticker (from Gulfport) for your motorcycle.

You have not given the Admiral any of my information, and that is a mistake, Monday I will be on the phone all day or two if necessary in order to find the next Officer in the Admirals Chain of Command.

I will reiterate the information to you one more time.  If the base does not provide the motorcycle course (which Gulfport does not, nor do they have too) then you can get the course in town.  There are two courses offered by The Motorcycle Safety Foundation, the basic (16 hrs) and the experienced (8 hrs).  THE REQUIREMENT IS THAT YOU ATTEND THE BASIC (16 HR) COURSE OF INSTRUCTION TO GET YOUR STICKER.  You attended the experienced.

I do not need you too reiterate anything, it just that you are wrong in your finding.

After you have read the Captain Kelm stated that the Naval Seabee Base does, (key word "does") have the Motorcycle Safety Course you.

Your statement, "which Gulfport does not, nor do they have too," is way out of line. I spent my life in the military and my ID Card says "INDEF" which means I have earned the right to go on and off any military base.

When you retire you too will be considered a second-class citizen and will have to fight for almost everything you believe you have earned.

As I explained to you, the basic offers a course of instruction not covered by the experienced.  The experienced course is not a requirement and not needed to get your sticker on the base.

When it was explained too me at the Naval Seabee Base Security Office that I would have to take there Motorcycle Safety Course, I ask when the next one would be held.

I was told then that they did not have a course on the base, and that I would have too go to Keesler Air Force Base.

Now I am told that the Naval Seabee Base does have the Basic Motorcycle Safety Course, and told where and who to call to get enrolled.


I believe you have all the information you need in order to get a base sticker for your motorcycle.  Pls do not hestitate to call or e-mail me if you need further guidance or information.

The fact is you have not provided any information, and I never did request your information.

I requested Rear Admiral, Jan C. Guadio to provide me information, but I can tell that the Admiral has never gotten the information I requested.

But he will!!
