FORCE Protection Condition Bravo set at Military Bases in US

Received Alert email from my source that FORPROCON Bravo is being set at US military bases around the US. No further info at this time.

FYI
The levels are A, the least, through D, the most strict.

We've been at Bravo here at Germany since forever. Though we did waiver at Charlie for a couple of days.

Yep,
We've been at Alpha + in the States since 07, so time to keep a look out for possible increase activity on the home front.

Forgive me for not being military-savvy, but...what does that mean? FORPROCON bravo?

FPCON BRAVO describes a situation with somewhat predictable terrorist threat. Security measures taken by agency personnel may affect the activities of local law enforcement and the general public.

I think this makes perfect sense. NATO, with plenty of US involvement may have killed another country's leader's child and grandchildren. I would be raising security flags as well. There is no doubt that there will be some type of blow back.

It means absolutely nothing.

FORCE Protection Condition Bravo, A level of increasing security precautions taken to combat possible security or terrorism act to military bases.

They range from Alpha (A) to Delta (D) from least secure to most secure.

We're the same here at Wright-Patt.

You are most likely Correct...I'm just putting the info out there...Some may just dismiss it and that is fine.

So somewhat like the old terror threat-level color codes that used to sit on the corner of the news channels? What actions are taken as a result of this? What changes for you on base?

reply to post by kalunom


Sorry, but the actual security measures are classified for good reasons. You can know the increase in security is ordered, but not what is being done to make it more secure.

It is a little more than the color levels that the news had but similar in the increasing the threat of harm level depicted by those warnings.

He might be one of those disinfo agent that has been talked about in other threads...lol

anyone know what the current threat level is for the states?

I believe the did away with the terror threat levels, so I don't think there is one, But I could be wrong and it may be some back-channel code that isn't really spoken of in the MSM.

Please excuse me if im wrong, i dont know about this subject but from reading what you say A being highest and D being lowest, shouldnt A+ be reserved for more or less an imminent threat? kind of defeats the objective of having a threat meter if its allways set to A?
