Defense Readiness Conditions (104.6) DEFCON designation is a uniform system of progressive alert postures for use between the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff and the commanders of unified and specified combatant commands and for use by the Services. Defense Readiness Conditions are graduated to match situations of varying military severity or status of alert.
DEFCON 5 is normal peacetime readiness. DEFCON 4 is normal with increased intelligence and strengthened security measures. DEFCON 3 has an increase in force readiness above normal readiness. DEFCON 2 establishes a further increase in force readiness, but less than maximum readiness. DEFCON 1 means maximum force readiness.
81
The Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff-approved program standardizes the military services' identification of and recommended responses to terrorist threats against U.S. personnel and facilities. This program facilitates inter-service coordination and support for antiterrorism activities, also called THREATCONs.
THREATCON ALPHA applies when there is a general threat of possible terrorist activity directed against units and personnel. THREATCON BRAVO applies when an increased and more predictable threat of terrorist activity exists. THREATCON CHARLIE applies when an incident occurs or when intelligence is received indicating that some form of terrorist action against units and personnel is imminent. THREATCON DELTA applies in the immediate area where a terrorist attack has occurred or when intelligence has been received that terrorist action against a specific location is likely. All preparation for each level of terrorist threat can be found in chapter 5 of the Physical Security Program Manual and in the unit's Standard Organization and Regulations Manual (SORM).
82
The Coast Guard employs a three-tiered system of Maritime Security (MARSEC) Levels to communicate pre-planned scalable responses for credible threats. MARSEC Levels are set to reflect the prevailing threat environment to the marine elements of the national transportation system, including ports, vessels, facilities, and critical assets and infrastructure. MARSEC Levels apply to vessels, Coast Guard-regulated facilities inside the U.S., and to the Coast Guard.
MARSEC Level 1 The level for which minimum appropriate security measures shall be maintained at all times. MARSEC Level 2 The level for which appropriate additional protective security measures shall be maintained for a period of time as a result of heightened risk of a transportation security incident. MARSEC Level 3 The level for which further specific protective security measures shall be maintained for a limited period of time when a transportation security incident is probable, imminent, or has occurred, although it may not be possible to identify the specific target.
83
The Coast Guard is "at all times an armed force of the United States." As part of the Joint Force, the Coast Guard maintains its readiness to carry out military operations in support of the policies and objectives of the U.S. government. The Defense Readiness mission supports the National Military Strategy and Department of Defense (DoD) operations by ensuring Coast Guard assets are capable and equipped to deploy and conduct joint operations in support the most critical needs of the combatant commanders in the following major national-defense missions:
Condition I The cutter is at its highest level of readiness when in Condition 1. All engineering and weapons systems are ready for immediate and sustained use. All personnel are at their assigned stations. Condition III Condition III is set during wartime or other high intensity operations underway. The cutter must maintain sufficient readiness to conduct screening or other assigned operations, provide for immediate self-defense, conduct urgent/deliberate attack, take initial actions when detached as part of a search and attack unit (SAU) or surface attack group (SAG), or perform other missions assigned. The weapons systems will be ready to ensure the cutter can employ its self-defense capability until Condition I is set. Engineering and command, control, communications systems will be operating and ready to perform the mission assigned. Condition IV The Condition IV watch is used for normal steaming and the conduct of normal underway operations. Condition V Condition V is set when the cutter is inport. The primary purpose of this watch is to maintain the security of the cutter.
