While there is no credible threat to the public, this exercise is a perfect opportunity to practice the “see something, say something” reporting method. This reporting method is key in recognizing potential warning
signs and threats to our communities.
Measures have been taken to minimize disruptions within local communities and to normal base operations, but there may be times when the exercise causes increased traffic around bases or delays in base access. Area
residents may also see or hear security activities associated with the exercise. Advanced coordination has taken place with local law enforcement and first responders.
Ensuring the safety and security of our Sailors, civilians, and surrounding community is our top priority and requires a team effort.
Exercise SC23 is an anti-terrorism force protection exercise that is being conducted nationwide on Navy installations. The annual exercise is not in response to any specific threat but is used to evaluate the readiness
of fleet and installation security programs.
