Base privileges after divorce

Question:

My veteran husband and I recently finalized our divorce. Do I lose my ability to shop at the Base or lose access to the BX and commissary?

Jim's Reply:

Yes. The privilege of on base shopping is extended to some veterans and their dependents. You are no longer a dependent of the eligible veteran and you should properly discard any ID you may have. If you had CHAMPVA health care, you should also discard any ID you may have for that benefit.
