According to CNN, the Pentagon is "to establish regional teams of military
personnel to assist civilian authorities in the event of a significant
outbreak of the H1N1 virus this fall, according to Defense Department
officials."
"The proposal is awaiting final approval from Defense Secretary Robert
Gates.
The officials would not be identified because the proposal from U.S.
Northern Command's Gen. Victor Renuart has not been approved by the
secretary.
The plan calls for military task forces to work in conjunction with the
Federal Emergency Management Agency. There is no final decision on how the
military effort would be manned, but one source said it would likely include
personnel from all branches of the military.
It has yet to be determined how many troops would be needed and whether
they would come from the active duty or the National Guard and Reserve
forces.
Civilian authorities would lead any relief efforts in the event of a major
outbreak, the official said. The military, as they would for a natural
disaster or other significant emergency situation, could provide support and
fulfill any tasks that civilian authorities could not, such as air transport
or testing of large numbers of viral samples from infected patients.
As a first step, Gates is being asked to sign a so-called "execution
order" that would authorize the military to begin to conduct the detailed
planning to execute the proposed plan.
Orders to deploy actual forces would be reviewed later, depending on how
much of a health threat the flu poses this fall, the officials said." (CNN,

The implications are far-reaching. The decision points towards the
establishment of a police State. The Pentagon is already planning on the
number of troops to be deployed in the case of a pandemic. A nationwide
vaccination program is is already planned for the Fall. The pharmaceutical
indsutry is slated to deliver 160 million vaccine doses by the Fall.
US Northern Command
"regional teams" have already been established under USNORTHCOM, which has
been involved in preparedness training and planning in the case of a flu
pandemic for several years (See U.S. Northern Command - Avian Flu.
USNORTHCOM website). http://www.northcom.mil/Avian%20Flu/index.html
Within the broader framework of "Disaster Relief", Northern Command has, in
the course of the last two years, defined a mandate in the eventuality of a
public health emergency or a flu pandemic. The emphasis is on the
militarization of public health whereby NORTHCOM would oversee the
activities of civilian institutions involved in health related services.
According Brig. Gen. Robert Felderman, deputy director of USNORTHCOM's
Plans, Policy and Strategy Directorate: "USNORTHCOM is the global
synchronizer - the global coordinator - for pandemic influenza across the
combatant commands"(emphasis added) (See Gail Braymen, USNORTHCOM
contributes pandemic flu contingency planning expertise to trilateral
workshop, http://www.northcom.mil/news/2008/041408.html

"Also, the United States in 1918 had the Spanish influenza. We were the
ones who had the largest response to [a pandemic] in more recent history. So
I discussed what we did then, what we expect to have happen now and the
numbers that we would expect in a pandemic influenza."
The potential number of fatalities in the United States in a modern
pandemic influenza could reach nearly two million, according to Felderman.
Not only would the nation's economy suffer, but the Department of Defense
would still have to be ready and able to protect and defend the country and
provide support of civil authorities in disaster situations. While virtually
every aspect of society would be affected, "the implications for Northern
Command will be very significant."
"[A pandemic would have] a huge economic impact, in addition to the
defense-of-our-nation impact," Felderman said. The United States isn't alone
in preparing for such a potential catastrophe. (Gail Braymen, op cit)
Apart from the CNN dispatch and a FOX news report, there has been virtually
no mainstream press coverage of this issue. No statement has been made by
USNORTHCOM. The Fox New Report suggests that US troops would be involved in
organising military quarantines.
