My free advise (worth exactly what you've paid for it): get a US Passport or at least a Passport Card.....quickly!

While I have been and continue to be, in support of Real ID for Alaska, it seems that fear will sabotage any reasonable resolution to this. (sigh) Perhaps Alaska should get of out the ID card business entirely and demote the Alaska Driver's License down to that of a library card. "What's your name?" Who cares? Just ask Rep. Chris "I'm-not-quite-sure-of-my-last-name" Tuck what his legal name was when first elected....
