Heard on the radio: military bans domestic travel for enlisted personnel

? ALL? Domestic travel ( not just air)for troops and their families?

I have a hard time believing this is true. How can they enforce if a soldiers wife drives to see her mom in another state for instance?

Beats wild-ass guesses, n'est-ce pas?

Please review your speculation and then consider whether it’s prudent to start threads containing baseless conjecture. Do you really want to add to the fear and uncertainty so prevalent right now?

Excuse me for asking any questions!

But I am uncertain as to what “total ban on domestic travel” means and what family members it applies to.

Another article indicated it applies to government funded travel

One article has a pic of soldiers getting on a plane but air travel is not specified

BTW I will post whatever I want as long as it doesnt violate site rules, sorry!
