About Joint Base Anacostia-Bolling

Joint Base Anacostia–Bolling (JBAB) is a U.S. military installation located along the Anacostia and Potomac Rivers in Washington, D.C. It supports multiple defense and intelligence commands and provides housing, base exchange and commissary facilities, dining options, fitness centers, recreation programs, and community services for service members, civilians, and their families. Many of its food, lodging, and recreation facilities are operated through the 11th Force Support Squadron and exchange partners, and several on-base eateries and clubs now use modern point-of-sale systems such as Toast for card payments.

A charge with a descriptor like “TST*JOINT Base Anacosti Washington Dc” typically indicates that your card was processed using Toast at a food, beverage, club, or recreation facility located on Joint Base Anacostia–Bolling, with the descriptor truncating to the base name rather than the specific venue. Examples of such facilities include restaurants, snack bars, bowling center snack bars, waterfront restaurants, and club dining areas on JBAB, many of which are listed under the base’s Force Support Squadron “Food & Lodging” directory and dining articles.([jbab.jb.mil](https://www.jbab.jb.mil/News/Articles/Article/3891894/where-to-eat-on-jbab/?utm_source=openai)) The transaction may be for a one-time meal, catering, an event at the Bolling Club or Community Center, or food purchased at another JBAB recreational venue.

If you have questions about this charge, first confirm whether you or an authorized card user recently visited Joint Base Anacostia–Bolling for duty, an event, dining, or recreation. Check any itemized receipts from JBAB facilities—many list both the specific venue (e.g., restaurant, snack bar, club) and a Toast transaction ID. If you can’t match the charge, contact the specific JBAB facility shown on your receipt or reach out via the JBAB Force Support Squadron contact directory; staff can often look up Toast transactions by date, time, and amount. If you still don’t recognize the charge, promptly contact your card issuer to dispute the transaction and request a card reissue if fraud is suspected.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why does my statement show “TST*JOINT Base Anacosti Washington Dc” instead of a specific restaurant name?

The “TST*” prefix indicates the Toast point-of-sale system, and in this case the descriptor is pulling the broader installation name, “Joint Base Anacostia–Bolling,” rather than the individual venue. On JBAB, several food and club facilities use Toast, so the charge may be from a restaurant, snack bar, or club dining area on base even though only the base name appears on your statement.

What types of purchases on Joint Base Anacostia–Bolling are most likely to show up with a Toast (TST*) descriptor?

Most Toast-based charges on JBAB come from food and beverage transactions—such as meals at on-base restaurants, snack bars at facilities like bowling or recreation centers, waterfront dining, or club dining events—rather than from the commissary or exchange. Catering or hosted events at the Bolling Club or other Force Support facilities may also appear with a similar descriptor if processed through Toast.([jbab.jb.mil](https://www.jbab.jb.mil/News/Articles/Article/3891894/where-to-eat-on-jbab/?utm_source=openai))

How can I confirm which exact JBAB venue charged my card?

Check any receipts or email confirmations from your visit to Joint Base Anacostia–Bolling; Toast receipts usually list the specific venue name and a transaction or check number. If you no longer have the receipt, you can contact the suspected facility directly (for example, a restaurant or club where you recently dined) and provide the transaction date, time window, and amount so staff can search their Toast records. If you are unsure which venue it was, the JBAB Force Support Squadron directory can help you identify and call likely facilities.

Could this Toast charge be related to an event or catering at the Bolling Club or Community Center?

Yes. Many hosted events on JBAB—such as command functions, receptions, or private parties held at the Bolling Club or Community Center—may process food and beverage or room charges through Toast. In those cases, the descriptor can still appear as “TST*JOINT Base Anacosti Washington Dc,” even though the actual service was event catering or club dining at a JBAB facility.([jbabfss.com](https://jbabfss.com/community-center/?utm_source=openai))

Do JBAB dining facilities place temporary authorization holds on my card?

Some JBAB venues using Toast may place a temporary authorization hold for the estimated bill amount (sometimes slightly higher to allow for tip) when the card is first swiped or tapped. The final posted amount may differ if you add a tip or adjust the order, and the initial hold should drop off automatically within a few days once the final transaction settles.

How do I get a copy of the receipt for a JBAB Toast transaction I no longer have?

If you need a receipt, identify which day and approximate time you were on Joint Base Anacostia–Bolling and which facility you visited, then contact that venue directly using the phone number from the JBAB Force Support Squadron directory. Staff can typically retrieve Toast receipts by date, amount, and last four digits of your card and can provide a reprinted or emailed copy for your records.([jbabfss.com](https://jbabfss.com/furnari-restaurant/?utm_source=openai))

What should I do if I don’t recognize any visit to Joint Base Anacostia–Bolling but see this charge?

First verify that no authorized user on your card (such as a spouse or dependent with base access) made a purchase on JBAB. If no one recognizes the charge and you have no recent connection to the base, contact your bank or card issuer immediately to report the transaction as potentially fraudulent. They can block the card, start a dispute investigation, and issue you a new card if necessary.

Can civilian visitors or contractors generate this type of JBAB Toast charge, or is it only for active-duty personnel?

Both active-duty personnel and authorized civilians—including contractors, guests, or event attendees with base access—can incur charges at JBAB facilities that use Toast. If you attended a function, training, or meeting on Joint Base Anacostia–Bolling and bought food or drinks at an on-base venue, that purchase can legitimately appear as a “TST*JOINT Base Anacosti Washington Dc” charge on your card.
