A PA31 PLT; RETURNING TO MRB FROM A PHOTO MISSION; WAS BLOCKED AND THEN DETAINED MY MIL POLICE WHILE TAXIING ON TXWY A.

Narrative

CALLED EKN FSS FOR A STANDARD BRIEFING. DEPARTED MRB; COMPLETED MISSION; RETURNED TO MRB 8 HRS LATER. NORMALLY; ON MONDAYS; THE TWR IS CLOSED. THE TWR WAS CLOSED WHEN I CALLED IN ON THE CTAF TO LAND AT MRB. LANDED ON RWY 26; CLRED THE RWY MIDFIELD AND TAXIED IN ON TXWY A; WHICH IS THE PARALLEL TXWY TO RWY 26 AND NEAR THE AIR NATL GUARD. 3 MIL VEHICLES PULLED UP; 1 IN FRONT OF THE AIRPLANE. I ASKED THE CREW MEMBER TO EXIT THE AIRPLANE AND FIND OUT WHAT THEY WANTED. I WAS ASKED TO SHUT DOWN ON THE TXWY. I EXITED THE AIRPLANE AND WAS TOLD BY ONE OF THE MIL POLICE TO TURN AROUND. THERE WERE 9 MIL POLICE WITH WEAPONS OUT. I DON'T REMEMBER ALL THE DETAILS. I WAS VERY UPSET BEING TREATED LIKE A CRIMINAL. I WAS ASKED IF I KNEW THAT TXWY A WAS CLOSED. I SAID THAT I HAD CALLED EKN FSS AND THEY SAID NOTHING ABOUT TXWY A BEING CLOSED. I WALKED ON THE TXWY; STANDING THERE FOR 45 MINS. THE COMMANDING OFFICER IN CHARGE CAME UP AND APOLOGIZED SAYING; IN HIS WORDS; THAT HE HAD CONTACTED EKN FSS AND THAT THEY HAD THE NOTAM; BUT HAD NOT POSTED IT; AND LET US GO. I CALLED EKN FSS WITH A MAKE BELIEVE TRIP. ASKED FOR A STANDARD BRIEFING; WHICH I RECEIVED. WHEN I WAS READY TO HANG UP I SAID; 'AH; BY THE WAY; DO YOU HAVE ANY INFO ON TXWY A BEING CLOSED?' HE SAID 'STAND BY.' HE CAME BACK AND SAID 'YES; PART OF TXWY A WAS CLOSED BY THE GUARD RAMP.' AGAIN; I HAD NOT BEEN TOLD ABOUT A TXWY BEING CLOSED UNTIL I ASKED FOR THE INFO. MY QUESTION IS: HOW DO I ASK FOR INFO THAT I DON'T EVEN KNOW IS THERE UNLESS I USE THE CODE WORDS? GIVE ME THE LCL NOTAMS! WHEN I ASKED FOR A STANDARD BRIEFING; I SHOULD GET ALL THE REQUIRED INFO TO COMPLETE A SAFE FLT. BELIEVE ME; THE SYS NEEDS TO BE CHANGED.
