Your ex didn't want people seeing you because as a civilian your not meant to be on the camp unless you have been cleared by the guard commander or provo sargeant or you work on the camp. I always knew the guard shift Rota so I could persuade a mate to let the barmaid who usually dropped me off after a night out through the gate and that's probably how your ex used to get you on camp too I would have thought that kind of stuff wouldn't be able to happen these days with the security risk but I suppose where there's a will there's a way 😂
