ARMY CALLING FOR ‘WORKERS’ TO RESPOND TO FUTURE “DISASTER STRICKEN AREAS OF THE US”
KENNEWICK, Wash.- A tip was sent to me by a reader via email Saturday documenting how the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers is now soliciting civilian workers for “maintenance” positions ahead of what appears to be an upcoming and potentially ‘imminent event’ of some type.
Shockingly as listed in the solicitation numbered “NCFL156545791382984S” which is posted at USAJobs.gov the Army Corps of Engineers is literally calling upon skilled individuals amongst the civilian population in search of potential prospects rather than using already active Army personnel.
The “job summary” section of the solicitation strokes the prospect’s ego, reading:
“Civilian employees serve a vital role in supporting the Army’s mission. They provide the skills that are not readily available in the military, but crucial to support military operations. The Army integrates the talents and skills of its military and civilian members to form a Total Army.”
It’s also important to note that the position may extend up to “four years” and that “employees” will be required to respond to “disaster stricken areas of the US”.
Did I miss something?
Disaster stricken areas of the U.S., WTF does that mean?
Does the U.S. Government know something that they have not yet told the general public?
Is there an impending disaster looming such as the eruption of the Yellowstone supervolcano or possibly a predestined asteroid impact which rumor has may be coming in September? After reading a potion of the solicitation’s “about” section you may be asking these very questions too. It reads:
“Employees occupying these positions will provide emergency support to disaster stricken areas throughout the US. Employees must pass a stringent medical screening and be prepared to live and work in extremely austere conditions. Work schedule will initially be arduous, with much overtime. Sleeping arrangements may be limited to using a sleeping bag or in the vehicle used to move from location to location. The duty station for pay purposes for these positions is Kennewick, WA with possible 75% or GreaterBusiness Travel in various locations throughout the US.”
Additionally it’s important to point out that “Kenniwick, WA” is only the “duty station for pay purposes”, signifying that employees who have accepted the position can end up anywhere throughout the U.S. as “75%” of the job is listed as “travel”.
Interestingly duties of the job include:
“[…] computing and making flood releases, inspecting, repairing and maintaining the appurtenant structures and systems of the dam (skills include, but are not limited to, electrical and mechanical work); and participating in the dam inspections. Maintains and repairs facilities such as public restrooms, camp sites, picnic areas, park roads, etc. Repair equipment such as, hydraulic gates, hoists, hangers, cranes, elevators, sump pumps, water systems pumps, chlorinators and stand-by generators. Dam Operation; Collects humidity, temperature and wind velocity readings from weather instruments, makes gage readings pertaining to water storage and performs related calculations.

The job pays $21.93-$25.57 per hour.
I’m not Sarge but these are maintenance mechanics. No tin foil needed here
Tin foil is only used when it is far fetched. Tell me why is all of this taking place now? Jade Helm and all the military training around the Country. Billions of rounds to local PD along with MRAPS and other military hardware. Conspiracies are that if it is not going on in front of your face. Open your eyes people something is coming.
Look Up Planet X. Discovered in 1981 and reported on numerous times in the early 80s then Silence.

When I lived in Northern Michigan I used to float on the Muskegon river in an innertube with a beer in hand watching A-10s make mock strafing runs on the bridges.
Sometimes they would fly high along the highway and dive down on the bridges but what was really cool was when they flew low along the river only to pop up above the hills a short way from the target bridge. I lived on a low bluff over the river and they would fly by at eye level maybe 200 feet away.
You’re right. Sorry, I used the incorrect pronoun.
Does this mean we’re all going to die??
OH NO.... we are, we are, WE’RE ALL GOING TO DIE!!!
Well, just in case a good many of you folks actually die, goodbye and God bless.
As for me, I will sit on my mountain top and eat fresh homemade apple pie.
Hurricane season starts on June 30th.
Just getting ready?
POS doesn’t want another katrina.
The Atlantic Hurricane Season starts in June 1.
They probably are recruiting “workers” to help clean up after Clown Prince nobama and his leftist minions ruin America.
I used to do a lot of heavy equipment work near Grissom AFB when they had the fighter wing there.
I lost count of how many times I’ve been “targetted” by A-10s. I’d swing around and see one heading straight for me while I was in the middle of an open field.
I’d give them a big wave before they started to pull up and they’d tip their wings back at me as they flew off.
Sometimes they’d do a loop or another fly by.
When I was at Ft. Walton (Sept.), it was busy certain times of the day every day. Eglin AFB and Hurlbut Field had to be contributing the different aircraft.
It’s kinda hard to turn the supplies on and off to uncooperative areas under that system.
“”I’m not Sarge but these are maintenance mechanics. No tin foil needed here””
Yup, just a help wanted ad for skilled workers.
Low pay for the conditions described, so probably just looking for newbies to fill in holes in their work force created by attrition and retirement.
Think of the areas the AC or E owns/has jurisdiction over. Nothing in the job description is outside what they do on a day to day basis,
Put your tin foil away, for now.
So a restroom cleaner should make at least $21.93 per hour, but no more than $25.57 is enough for someone competent to calculate and control water flow from dams, and fix flood pumps, etc. Good luck with that.
It’s gonna take a few years for the zero-voters to understand their economic and moral digestion problems electoral-wise.
Hopefully they elect to not vote again for a long time.
Unless for Cruz.
California is out of ground water it’s worse than they are reporting we are screwed
