the individual or individuals involved impose or might reasonably be 
expected to impose on the related base complex.

as to whether the entry at the time and for the purpose stated will or 
will not be inimical to the purposes of national defense.

    (c) Aliens. (1) Entry of aliens for employment or residence in an

every applicant to depart the defense area for which entry was 
authorized upon expiration of the time prescribed in the authorization, 
unless such authorization has been extended or renewed. Failure to 
comply herewith will be considered as evidence of violation
