The Pentagon has responded to a globally-released 'Kill List', asking law enforcement to give extra protection for military personnel whose personal information was released.
CBS News national security correspondent David Martin reports the Pentagon spent the weekend notifying the soldiers who appeared on the list, and urged city police departments and military police to increase patrol in the neighborhoods where the targeted live.
The Islamic State in Iraq and Syria (ISIS) published the list days ago, a report that contained names, photos, and home addresses of U.S. Armed Forces personnel, causing alarm in cities potentially at high-risk.
According to the publication, ISIS urges followers and sympathizers in the U.S. to kill the servicemen. Specific personnel on the list are largely from the U.S. Air Force and U.S. Navy - branches of the country's military that have conducted massive air strikes against ISIS.
The air strikes have left ISIS mostly defenseless, killing over 8,000 fighters with attacks carried out on more than 5,000 targets. But ISIS appears to be fighting back through forms of social media.

There’s not much in Wylie but it is right between two of our largest sources of water.
The California locations are odd choices. They can’t be very high on the list, fortunately.
How did these camel shagging sons of Satan get this list?
Consequently, I'd wager that there is a military person in each of these towns who has somehow come to ISIS' attention.
“Washington: Colton, Cheney, Seattle, Spokane, ANACORTES”
Nice. My home town made the list.
The list may be a red herring to see how some places prepare and how lax other places are.
Seems that lists like this one may be used by the bad guys to assess our intelligence capabilities....
You are right. These are the locations of specific service personnel they’ve targeted.
Wylie yes, Bedford No
