You two need to turn off Art Bell and put your panties back on.

FPCON levels are not classified:

http://www.google.com/#hl=en&sugexp=ldymls&xhr=t&q=FPCON&cp=4&safe=off&um=1&ie=UTF-8&tbo=u&tbs=nws:1&source=og&sa=N&tab=wn&bav=on.2,or.r_gc.r_pw.&fp=1311a656af66e19c

I’m going to go out on a limb and say that jagusafr probably has a firm grasp as to what information is reasonable to share on FR.

Unless superseded: IAW DoDI 2000.16, October 2, 2006, p. 40 Enclosure 4
E4.3. FPCON PROCEDURES
E4.3.1. Site-specific AT measures, linked to an FPCON and physical security actions, shall
be classified “CONFIDENTIAL.”

1.Your post, when added to #4 and #14, violates the classification guidance.

2. While installations may in fact post FPCON levels, they do not add the specific measures IAW the above.

3.USNORTHCOM issues guidance in its AOR for DOD personnel and their families, not the general public. I bet the CDRUSNORTHCOM, if he feels required, can talk to DHS via DoD about what the general public needs to know. Did you know why the FPCON was raised when you posted? What if there was threat and your message caused the T’s to go to ground and avoid kill /capture? Whether your message on your ‘puter was via SIPR, NIPR, or personal, adding your rank and job to a message to the general public indicates poor judgment. #99, unsubstantiated speculation to the general public, is also not the best course of action. Recommend you develop a civilian tagline if you wish to have these discussions in the open.

4. Admin Mods – despite how cool or sexy military info is, I urge caution and due speed when posting “real world” data. Loose Lips due in fact sink ships…
