Editing Guantanamo Bay Naval Base (section)

=== Units and commands ===
Access to the Naval Station is very limited and must be pre-approved through the appropriate local chain of command with the Commander of the station as the final approval. Since berthing facilities are limited, visitors must be sponsored indicating that they have an approved residence for the duration of the visit.<ref>{{cite web|title=Section 1: General Entry Requirements|url=https://www.cnic.navy.mil/navycni/groups/public/@cnrse/@gtmo/documents/document/cnic_050498.pdf|access-date=31 August 2012|publisher=United States Navy|archive-date=2 October 2012|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20121002115722/http://www.cnic.navy.mil/navycni/groups/public/@cnrse/@gtmo/documents/document/cnic_050498.pdf|url-status=dead}}</ref>
