Lots of ways to do it, but check with your security dept on base prior to doing anything. See if they have requirements for placement. [/align]

The Air Force does not require you to have a DoD sticker anymore, however, the other Services do. I'm sure they will come around too.

Not true. On AFP42 it's a requirement.

There are plates that you can get that will bolt on just about anywhere, I have mine hanging on one of my front brake caliper bolts. Guards can see it when I pull up. Nice to be able to take it off if you want.

Default RE: DOD sticker placement

Here on Kirtland AFB, they are no longer required so Casique is correct - the AF and soon all the other branches of the military will not require DOD stickers - however, they might still require you to 'register' your bike on base/post/etc. Reasoning behind this is that having a DOD sticker on your bike, car, truck, whatever makes you a more easily accessible and identifiable target when travelling off-base, where all the baddies are. Check with your Pass/I.D. office and ask about it.
