A downright Dystopian development. Two days ago, I posted this:
You do have to plan for every eventuality but...
This is a bit draconian. From the Centers for Disease Control:
Interim Operational Considerations for Implementing the Shielding Approach to Prevent COVID-19 Infections in Humanitarian Settings
This document presents considerations from the perspective of the U.S. Centers for Disease Control & Prevention (CDC) for implementing the shielding approach in humanitarian settings as outlined in guidance documents focused on camps, displaced populations and low-resource settings.
Camps? Displaced populations?
I chalked that up to extreme planning - something you have to do if you want to cover EVERY possible scenario.
But this morning, I see that the Army National Guard is specifically recruiting people to man these camps.
From National File:
Army National Guard Recruits For ‘Internment’ And ‘Resettlement’ Specialist, Military Documents Lay Out Procedure For ‘Civilian Internees’
The Army National Guard is actively recruiting for a job position called “Internment/Resettlement Specialist.” People as young as seventeen years old are eligible for the gig, which includes “Search/Restraint” as “Some of the Skills You’ll Learn,” according to an Army National Guard job posting with a job location listed as Washington, D.C. Meanwhile, military documents show that the military can detain civilians here in America, including U.S. citizens. A leaked U.S. Headquarters of the Army document entitled “INTERNMENT AND RESETTLEMENT OPERATIONS” describes an official category of detained person called “civilian internee.” A Department of Defense Directive published below discussed “civilian internees” and made it clear that military detainees can be U.S. citizens.
The job posting is here: 31E Internment/Resettlement Specialist
Duties include:
Job Duties
• Supervision of confinement and detention operations
• External security of facilities
• Providing counseling/guidance to individual prisoners within a rehabilitative program
• Maintaining records of prisoners/internees and their programs
Ho Li Crap - when will people wake up to this...
