This is consistent with the different meanings of the word '<a href="/wiki/Military" title="Military">military</a>'. </p><p>Some examples of permanent military bases used by the <a href="/wiki/Navy" title="Navy">navies</a> and <a href="/wiki/Air_force" title="Air force">air forces</a> of the world are the <a href="/wiki/HMNB_Portsmouth" title="HMNB Portsmouth">HMNB Portsmouth</a> in Portsmouth, UK, the <a href="/wiki/Naval_Air_Station_Whidbey_Island" title="Naval Air Station Whidbey Island">Naval Air Station Whidbey Island</a>, Washington State, US, or <a href="/wiki/Ramstein_Air_Base" title="Ramstein Air Base">Ramstein Air Base</a>, Germany (the last two are each designated as a <a href="/wiki/Main_Operating_Base" class="mw-redirect" title="Main Operating Base">Main Operating Base</a>). Other examples of non- or semi-permanent military bases include a <a href="/wiki/Forward_Operating_Base" class="mw-redirect" title="Forward Operating Base">Forward Operating Base</a> (FOB), a <a href="/wiki/Military_logistics" title="Military logistics">Logistics</a> Base (Log base) and a <a href="/wiki/Fire_support_base" title="Fire support base">Fire Base</a> (FB). </p><p>A military base may also contain large concentrations of military supplies in order to support <a href="/wiki/Military_logistics" title="Military logistics">military logistics</a>. Most military bases are restricted to the public and usually only authorized personnel may enter them (be it military personnel or their relatives and authorized civilian personnel). </p><p>In addition to the main military facilities on a certain installation, military bases usually (but not always) have various different facilities for military personnel. These facilities vary from country to country. Military bases can provide housing for military personnel, a post office and dining facilities (<a href="/wiki/Restaurant" title="Restaurant">restaurants</a>). They may also provide support facilities such as fast food restaurants, gas stations, chapels, <a href="/wiki/Military_school" class="mw-redirect" title="Military school">schools</a>, <a href="/wiki/Bank" title="Bank">banks</a>, <a href="/wiki/Thrift_store" class="mw-redirect" title="Thrift store">thrift stores</a>, a <a href="/wiki/Military_hospital" title="Military hospital">hospital</a> or clinic (dental or health clinics, as well as veterinarian clinics), <a href="/wiki/Lodging" title="Lodging">lodging</a>, movie theaters, and, in some countries, retail stores (usually a supermarket such as <a href="/wiki/Defense_Commissary_Agency" title="Defense Commissary Agency">Commissary</a> and a <a href="/wiki/Department_Store" class="mw-redirect" title="Department Store">Department Store</a>, such as <a href="/wiki/Army_%26_Air_Force_Exchange_Service" title="Army & Air Force Exchange Service">AAFES</a>). On American military installations, Family, Morale, Welfare and Recreation (FMWR) provides facilities such as fitness centers, libraries, golf courses, travel centers, community service centers, campgrounds, child development centers, youth centers, automotive workshops, hobby/arts and crafts centers, bowling centers, and community centers. </p> <figure class="mw-halign-left" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:F-4G_81st_TFS_serviced_at_Spangdahlem_1990.JPEG" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/a/a8/F-4G_81st_TFS_serviced_at_Spangdahlem_1990.JPEG/250px-F-4G_81st_TFS_serviced_at_Spangdahlem_1990.JPEG" decoding="async" width="250" height="164" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/a/a8/F-4G_81st_TFS_serviced_at_Spangdahlem_1990.JPEG/375px-F-4G_81st_TFS_serviced_at_Spangdahlem_1990.JPEG 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/a/a8/F-4G_81st_TFS_serviced_at_Spangdahlem_1990.JPEG/500px-F-4G_81st_TFS_serviced_at_Spangdahlem_1990.JPEG 2x" data-file-width="2830" data-file-height="1860" /></a><figcaption>Part of USAF <a href="/wiki/Spangdahlem_Air_Base" title="Spangdahlem Air Base">Spangdahlem Air Base</a> in 1990</figcaption></figure> <p>Bases used by the <a href="/wiki/United_States_Air_Force_Reserve" class="mw-redirect" title="United States Air Force Reserve">United States Air Force Reserve</a> tend to be active USAF bases.

Support facilities on Air National Guard and Air Force Reserve installations tend to not be as extensive as active bases (i.e., they usually do not have on-base lodging (though <a href="/wiki/Kingsley_Field_Air_National_Guard_Base" class="mw-redirect" title="Kingsley Field Air National Guard Base">Kingsley Field ANGB</a>, Oregon, is an exception), clinics (except for drill days), or retail stores (although some have small convenience stores)). </p><p>In Russian usage "military base" or "naval base" is not limited to denoting a specific fence described facility and usually encompasses a broad territory within which a number of discrete facilities may be located. As examples, 1) the Russian Sevastopol Naval Base comprises individual facilities located within the city of Sevastopol proper (waterfront moorings, weapons stores, a headquarters compound, and a naval infantry base) as well as an airfield at Kacha north of the city; 2) the Leningrad Naval Base comprises all naval facilities in the greater St. Petersburg area including training schools, commissioning institutes, the naval academy, and the Kronshtadt base on Kotlin island. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Overseas_military_base">Overseas military base</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Military_base&action=edit&section=4" title="Edit section: Overseas military base"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <figure class="mw-default-size" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:AmericanCenter.jpg" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/a/a4/AmericanCenter.jpg/220px-AmericanCenter.jpg" decoding="async" width="220" height="317" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/a/a4/AmericanCenter.jpg/330px-AmericanCenter.jpg 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/a/a4/AmericanCenter.jpg/440px-AmericanCenter.jpg 2x" data-file-width="654" data-file-height="942" /></a><figcaption>Civilian services offered to soldiers outside a military base</figcaption></figure> <style data-mw-deduplicate="TemplateStyles:r1236090951">.mw-parser-output .hatnote{font-style:italic}.mw-parser-output div.hatnote{padding-left:1.6em;margin-bottom:0.5em}.mw-parser-output .hatnote i{font-style:normal}.mw-parser-output .hatnote+link+.hatnote{margin-top:-0.5em}@media print{body.ns-0 .mw-parser-output .hatnote{display:none!important}}</style><div role="note" class="hatnote navigation-not-searchable">Further information: <a href="/wiki/List_of_countries_with_overseas_military_bases" title="List of countries with overseas military bases">List of countries with overseas military bases</a></div> <p>An overseas military base is a military base that is geographically located outside of the territory of the country whose <a href="/wiki/Armed_forces" class="mw-redirect" title="Armed forces">armed forces</a> are the principal occupants of the base. </p><p>Such bases may be established by treaties between the governing power in the host country and another country which needs to establish the military base in the host country for various reasons, usually strategic and logistic. </p><p>Furthermore, overseas military bases often serve as the source of the <a href="/wiki/Military_brat" title="Military brat">military brat</a> subculture due to the children of the bases' occupant military being born or raised in the host country but raised with a remote parental knowledge of the occupant military's home country. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="British_military_bases">British military bases</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Military_base&action=edit&section=5" title="Edit section: British military bases"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1236090951"><div role="note" class="hatnote navigation-not-searchable">Main article: <a href="/wiki/Overseas_military_bases_of_the_United_Kingdom" title="Overseas military bases of the United Kingdom">Overseas military bases of the United Kingdom</a></div> <p>In the 18th and 19th centuries the <a href="/wiki/Royal_Engineers" title="Royal Engineers">Royal Engineers</a> were largely responsible for erecting military bases in the British Isles and the British Empire.
