ThreatCon Delta (how its called in the Navy at least) means that your base is either under attack, or an attack is likely.
This has nothing directly to do with DEFCON's - which relate to readiness for war, not local attack.
I heard that all bases in the DC area are in ThreatCon Delta.
Regards Marshall Eubanks
Correct. FP (Force Protection) Condition Delta is the highest alert. Though I've heard it's only the US East coast posts that are at Delta; I've had reports that most overseas bases are at Charlie. FPCon is a localized alert state and will vary by location.
DEFCON 2 has been reached, I believe.
DEFCON 1 does not necessarily equate automatically to war, however. It is merely the maximum level of force readiness.

My understanding is that all US Military Bases, domestic and abroad are at ThreatCon (Threat Condition) Delta, and that DefCon (Defense Condition) 2 was in fact declared yesterday as well. I imagine that we'll be in this state for a some time as well.... /Alexander Kiwerski -----Original Message----- From: owner-nanog@merit.edu [mailto:owner-nanog@merit.edu]On Behalf Of Paul Timmins Sent: Tuesday, September 11, 2001 8:33 PM To: John Fraizer Cc: nanog@merit.edu Subject: Re: World Trade Center attack Selfridge AFB just north of Detroit is also at ThreatCon Delta -Paul At 10:47 PM 9/11/2001, you wrote:

There are ThreatCon Charlie boards up at Moffet Field in CA. --msa
Maybe Moffet hasn't got their ThreatCon Delta upgrade patches yet. [kidding...] DJ -----Original Message----- From: owner-nanog@merit.edu [mailto:owner-nanog@merit.edu]On Behalf Of Majdi S.

Note as well that Moffett closed as a military base in 1994. http://www.arc.nasa.gov/about_ames/moffett.html notes that it now has the status of "Federal Airfield" and is operated by NASA Ames. It would not be a great surprise to find NASA at a ThreatCon different from that of active military bases. Operational Content: The Ames side of MAE-West will now be under more restricted access. Discuss with your local contacts at Ames (Bobby Cates and his team) what procedures you need to follow if you need access to gear there. regards, Ted Hardie Disclaimer: I was once a contractor at NASA Ames, but they didn't let me speak for NASA even when I worked there.
Well, just goes to show (again) the news isn't always right ;-)

Found on Reuters: Brokerage Cantor Fitzgerald and one of its subsidiaries had 1,000 people working on four of the top 10 floors of 1 World Trade Center. Cantor said it has compiled a preliminary "safe" list of 150 to 200 employees who have been accounted for http://www.reuters.com/fullstory.jsp?type=default&StoryID=215721 Some got out of the top floors, but not many :-( -- Regards, Ulf. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Ulf Zimmermann, 1525 Pacific Ave., Alameda, CA-94501, #: 510-865-0204
