I see that 3D&3N is wisely waiting for confirmation before declaring it true Q comms. In the event that it is Q, then here's a definition of "Rig for Red" as it pertains to submarines.

 

"Rig for Red" is normally a command used in the Control Room. It is normally used when the boat is going to be surfacing or coming to Periscope Depth at night. The purpose is to give the lookouts and the officer designated to head to the bridge upon surfacing a chance for their eyes to adjust to darkness, or the OOD the same thing before looking through the Periscope. However, with the change to Blue, often times Red glasses are also used to provide the same effect and then Control is changed when the command is given to surface or come to PD.

During Battle Stations and at night, many spaces are rigged for red in order to simulate night conditions.

I think good evidence is

1. matching tripcode
2. matching 93 days dark from earlier Q post.

I’ve been checking @realDonaldTrump to see if there is something to confirm. POTUS silent most of today (12 hours), but retweeted things 48 min and 33 min ago. (about POTUS arrival at Madison Square Garden)

So far not seeing anything jumping out at me as a Q proof confirmation from POTUS. (timestamps?? haven’t checked)

So, Rig For Red could be “Dark to Light”?

"Rig for Red" is also in effect for the bridges of surface ships. military and civilian, from nautical dusk to nautical dawn. The exact timing is left up to the Officer of the Deck and depends on local weather conditions.
