The company I work for has a current contract with the Navy, we work on different projects with naval vessels and navy yards. i just spent 2 weeks on a naval facility raising a sunken barge with our company equipment and had to deal with naval security on several levels. I still don't understand the whole process! We were allowed to tow the aircraft carrier John F kennedy from Norfolk to Philadelphia after decomm in 2008 ( before I was on tug) and Base Commander came aboard and wanted a tour of our tug and crane barge and we were later challenged and denied putting trash in base dumpster! Crew was vetted and badged as per Navy regs/post 911 security.
