West Gate 24/7 conflict — flag, do not silently pick: the Gate Hours fact sheet (and a Feb in-person-work gate update) is not 24/7 for West Gate. The Newcomers page still says “The South and West gates are open 24/7.” Gate Hours fact sheet is the hours page; still flag the newcomers line. An older 2017 news item that West Gate “will become 24/7” is not the current fact sheet.
VCC hours conflict: Gate Hours fact sheet 7 a.m.–4 p.m. M–F. Hill-Base-Entry.pdf still prints South Gate VCC 0500–1700 MON–FRI. Treat the PDF as possibly stale; fact sheet wins for the clock, flagged.
After hours / weekends / holidays: hill.af.mil “New visitor access procedures” article: visitor passes issued at the South Gate entry controller when the VCC is closed. Telephone sponsorship is not authorized. Credentialed personnel sponsor in person at the South Gate VCC or via VCC SharePoint from a government computer.
Trusted Traveler Plus (2022 hill.af.mil article): government employees and military ID card holders may vouch for passengers; 100% ID checks for passengers remain. Contractors, civilian retirees, and foreign nationals are not allowed escort authority and go to South Gate Visitor Center. Confirm whether that 2022 policy is still posted before you plan a retiree escort.
Newcomers page: first-time arrivals use South Gate and ask directions to Bldg 450 (lodging), not a published PAX-terminal pin. All visitors: South Gate VCC, Bldg 542.
