OPERATION MOUNTAIN GUARDIAN:  DENVER TERROR DRILL TODAY - INVOLVES 81 DIFFERENT AGENCIES

September 23, 2011

What is going on in Denver for these Defcon 1 drills? Why is Obama at D.I.A. and is there really a “base” there?

Since New World Order Report is based out of Denver, Colorado, we here are all being sent emails and newsletters about an upcoming event that seems to have spawned an endless sea of conspiracy theories.  To fill everyone in on what all the buzz is about, it has to do with 2 primary issues.  The first being that most governments have requested that specific day off from work, and the President of the USA will be in Denver, specifically @ DIA.  Congress in recess, British Parliament is Off, British Royals have Nothing scheduled, UN is even off (allegedly through the rumor mills online), even the Pope has asked for “vacation”, Russian Congress/Duma is Off.

Denver International Airport is home to a well known underground military installation that I talked about on the Tom Martino Show just the other day, which you can have a listen to here:

The 2nd issue at hand is that on Tuesday, 9/27/11, although some online reports place this drill for TODAY, Friday, September 23, so be on the lookout and the drill is a terrorism-based, full-scale emergency exercise will also take place in multiple locations around the Denver Metro area. The exercise will involve first responders from 81 different agencies, will be conducted at ten separate locations, and will include loud noises, simulated weapons, smoke, emergency vehicles and other equipment that will be audible and visible throughout the day.  Two of the locations are Park Meadows Mall and Sky Ridge Medical Center so don’t be alarmed if you see a lot of activity in these locations.



I want to make 1 thing clear 1st, there are drills like this all the time, almost every week, and its been like this for years.  It doesn’t mean anything other than that you should always be prepared anyway, if you understand preparedness and the intelligence behind the 1st rule of boy-scouts, then you should be fine.  Don’t be paranoid and don’t let things get to you, but you should always be prepared for anything and everything.  We live in a world where anything can happen, even the total destruction and catastrophic is possible, so don’t think about it all day and night, be ready for it and move on in your life.  Don’t let it eat you up, just be prepared for it and continue.

This drill in Denver is specifically peculiar because I have not seen the President specifically mobilized for any event or drill, so it caught my attention.

The drill is being called:

Defcon 1 Cocked Pistol

THE US ARMED FORCES WILL BE RUNNING A DEFCON 1- COCKED PISTOL – MAXIMUM READINESS ALERT DRILL ON SEPTEMBER 27TH. Now, as many of you know Obama and Top NASA Officials will be in Denver on this Date.

Here’s where it gets Weird.

NEWS ADVISORY: Operation Mountain Guardian (continued)

ADDITIONAL BACKGROUND

• Operation Mountain Guardian is a terrorism-based full-scale exercise sponsored by the North Central All-Hazards Emergency Management Region, Denver Urban Area Security Initiative, and Front Range Metropolitan Medical Response System.  The exercise is a Homeland Security Grant funded event made possible due to grant funding from the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) through FEMA Region VIII and the State of Colorado Governor’s Office of Homeland Security.

• The North Central All-Hazards Emergency Management Region is one of nine emergency preparedness and response Regions within the State of Colorado.  The North Central Region (NCR) is organized around ten counties:  Adams, Arapahoe, Boulder, Broomfield, Clear Creek, Denver, Douglas, Elbert, Gilpin and Jefferson.

• One purpose of the NCR is to improve Region-wide emergency preparedness, response and homeland security capabilities through coordinated planning, training and exercise efforts.  This exercise is evidence of the growing public safety partnership between regional emergency response agencies.

• Operation Mountain Guardian is part of a Regional Training and Exercise Plan established in 2009.  Planning for Operation Mountain Guardian began in January 2010 and has included several building-block events designed to prepare responders to effectively participate in the full-scale exercise.

• The overall Operation Mountain Guardian exercise objectives are:

1. Communications: Assess the ability to establish and maintain multi-agency and multi-jurisdictional communications in response to a terrorism incident.

2. Hazmat Response and Decontamination: Evaluate the capability to coordinate multiple hazmat response teams and assess their ability to perform initial response actions.

3. Public Safety & Security Response: Evaluate the ability to establish scene security and crime scene preservation, coordinate a multi-jurisdictional response, and manage intelligence information in order to mitigate the effects of the event.

4. Explosive Device Response Operations: Evaluate the capability to manage and coordinate explosive device response operations using regional bomb squad teams.

5. Onsite Incident Management: Evaluate the ability to implement the Incident Command System (ICS) and establish multi-jurisdictional command and control.

6. Triage and Pre-Hospital Treatment: Examine the ability of EMS to provide effective pre-hospital emergency medical care in response to a terrorism incident.

7. Medical Surge: Evaluate medical surge capability at area hospitals.

• While Operation Mountain Guardian is primarily a Homeland Security Grant funded exercise, the event will also rely heavily on local government emergency response agencies, military organizations, volunteer organizations as well as local charitable organizations.
