"Still under investigation, all that," Sergeant First Class Craig Pickett, spokesman for the 82nd Airborne Division based here, told AFP when asked whether the truck had permission to enter the base.
Edgy sentries took aim and waved off any approaching cars Friday.
"Vehicles are searched. How that one got in and all that is all under investigation," Pickett said.
