The “list of off limit establishments” memorandum. Service members are familiar with this memo. Normally, establishments associated with illegal activity, not licensed to conduct their activities, where troubles brew, and other locations are listed as “off-limits.” However, a memorandum recently issued by Fort Liberty included McCormick Farms. The owners requested that their property, including the Creek that off duty soldiers frequent, be included on the list. The soldiers trespassed, conducted their activities at the creek, then left the owners with a lot of mess to clean up and deal with.<\/p>\n

From the Military Times:<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

Officials at Fort Liberty recently unveiled a revised index of establishments deemed off limits to base personnel due to concerns stemming from health and safety, patron behavior and unethical business practices, Army officials announced in a memo.<\/p>\n

The list, for the most part, comprises the usual suspects known to attract the episodic interest of impressionable young misfits from neighboring locales, the North Carolina installation included. Strip clubs, an adult boutique bearing the moniker “Peaches,” unlicensed tattoo shops, spurious taverns frequented by drug dealers and gangs, and premises known for parading sex workers were all present — to the surprise of none.<\/p>\n

And yet the aforementioned enterprises do not an eyebrow-raiser make. For that, attention can be turned toward the family owned and operated McCormick Farms, where, on numerous occasions, base personnel have reportedly trespassed and gone for a dip in the property’s creek, according to local outlet CBS 17.<\/p>\n

Beyond apparent service member affinity for creek-based aquatics, (presumably) junior enlisted free of the daily oppressor known as Police Call have also left trash behind for the owners to pick up themselves.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
