Terrorism is defined as: The unlawful use of violence or threat of violence to instill fear and coerce governments or societies. Terrorism is often motivated by religious, political, or other ideological beliefs and committed in the pursuit of goals that are usually political.

Antiterrorism is defined as: Defensive measures used to reduce the vulnerability of individuals and property to terrorist acts, to include rapid containment by local military and civilian forces.

Antiterrorism:

As a prelude and during performance of any contract, it is critical that the contractor be supportive of all Department of Defense (DoD) requirements to protect personnel and their families, installations, facilities, information, and other resources from terrorist acts.

All contractors and subcontractors are responsible for providing their personnel information on Joint Base McGuire-Dix-Lakehurst (JB MDL) Antiterrorism (AT) Program. During performance of work, personnel security and protection of resources is critical for the installation to maintain a safe work and secure environment.

Contractors must ensure that contracted personnel and vehicles are strictly controlled during performance of duty. For instance, contractors shall use reasonable efforts to prevent any personnel or equipment from being placed in harm’s way or in a position that could aid or abet terrorists (unattended running vehicle).

It is strongly recommended that all contracted personnel take the computer-based training (CBT) for the DoD-approved Antiterrorism Level I Training at https://jko.jten.mil/courses/AT-level1/launch.html contractors are encouraged to contact the JB MDL Antiterrorism Office at 609-562-2445/5362 for information regarding the installation Antiterrorism Program.

What to report:

Surveillance – Using cameras (either still or video), note taking, drawing diagrams, writing on maps, or using binoculars or other vision-enhancing devices to record or monitor base activity

Elicitation – Attempts to gain information from you by mail, in person, or by telephone about military operations, capabilities, or people

Tests Of Security - Attempts to measure reaction times or penetrate physical security barriers or procedures in order to assess strengths and weaknesses

Acquiring Supplies – Purchase, theft, or unauthorized acquisition of explosives, weapons, ammunition, military uniforms, decals, flight manuals, passes or badges, or any other controlled items

Suspicious Persons Out Of Place – People who don’t seem to belong in the workplace, neighborhood, business establishment, or anywhere else

Dry Run – People getting into position and moving around according to their plan without actually committing a terrorist act. This could also include mapping out routes and determining the timing of traffic lights and flow

Deploying Assets – People and supplies getting into position to commit the act. This is a person’s last chance to alert authorities before the terrorist act occurs

Funding – Suspicious transactions involving large cash payments, deposits, or withdrawals are common signs of terrorist funding. Collections for donations, the solicitation for money and criminal activity are also warning signs

No One Starts A New Day Believing They Will Be A Terrorist Target – Instead You May Find Yourself a:
