I assume the fence in the background is not to keep you in? Is this the outside perimeter? Are their places on base where you are not allowed to go? Are people restricted to their areas of work? (And food and sleeping)

That fence is actually just separating the flight line from the rest of the base. There is tighter security on the flight line than other areas of the base. There is areas where they don't want us to go. Not for security reasons but because of safety. There are a lot of half destroyed bunkers and other old buildings scattered around that are off limits. Exploring is frowned upon but they don't have guards watching over it. With my military ID I can go about anywhere on base but again there are areas I would have to have a reason to go to - they wouldn't just let me wander around. I have driven to the other side twice - once to fly out on leave and the other time to pick up our satellite dish. All the military buildings are the same - just in different locations. I will probably regret not exploring more but it is pretty hot out there :).
