““Whoever, within the jurisdiction of the United States, goes upon any military, naval, or Coast Guard reservation, post, fort, arsenal, yard, station, or installation, for any purpose prohibited by law or lawful regulation; ****** “Shall be fined not more than $500 or imprisoned not more than six months, or both.””
2 later decisions quote this exact passage · from the majority“They were warned by the sign, the five security guards, and the fence around the installation. In any event there can be no question that the sign and the security guards gave the appellants actual notice that they could enter only with the permission of the base commander. The record is clear that they were informed of the denial of their right of entrance before they entered the base.”
