n Getting Here
Joint Base Anacostia-Bolling, located along the Potomac River adjacent to I-295, is accessible from I-95, I-395 and I-495, and is within the Washington, D.C., city limits. If you plan to drive, you might consider arriving during non-rush hours; between 10 a.m. and 3 p.m. weekdays.
If your plans include air travel, there are three airports serving the Washington area — Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport (DCA), Dulles International Airport (IAD) and Baltimore-Washington International Thurgood Marshall Airport (BWI). Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport is in Northern Virginia just across the Potomac River from JBAB and about 15 minutes from the base during non-rush hours. Dulles, also in Northern Virginia, is farther away and during non-rush hours is about a 50-minute drive. BWI, is located north of the base in Maryland, and is about a 40-minute drive during non-rush hours. If you have the option, flying into Reagan National is the most convenient.

n Reporting Procedures
All newly reporting personnel should report to their command first. Once you check into your command and they endorse your orders, Navy personnel will then report to the Personnel Support Detachment (PSD), located in Enterprise Hall, and Air Force personnel will report to the Military Personnel Flight (MPF), located in Bldg. 16.

n Base Access
Joint Base Anacostia-Bolling has three entrances: the Firth Sterling gate, Arnold (main) gate and the South gate. The South gate, also known as the "visitor's gate," is the only location where visitors without ID cards may access the base.
