Renewed ID Card

September 15, 2006, just before my ovarian cancer surgery, I renewed my Common Access Card (CAC photo and fingerprint ID) which allows entry to the U.S. Naval Academy and other federal areas. Its expiration date was 9/21/09. At the time, I wondered if I'd expire before the card did. Yesterday I had to renew my CAC. The expiration on the latest card is 9/14/2012. My driver's license expires in 2014. I hope I'll be around to renew these two identity cards.
