Priority: Pizza

Posted May 9, 2007 By Dave Thomer

I’m glad to see that Fort Dix apparently employs the same security protocols as my college in the Bronx did:

Fort Dix has heavily guarded checkpoints with serpentine courses leading to guardhouses, gates and metal pop-up strips to stop the traffic.

The post has an X-ray machine that sees through trucks, and it checks the military credentials of the top commanders and police officials.

But it allows pizza delivery drivers with temporary vehicle passes to enter after basic local background checks – at least for now.

Although come to think of it, at Fordham we didn’t even bother with the vehicle passes. You had a pizza box or a brown bag filled with Chinese food, you were good to go.
