Per Bilin Lin writing at Fortune,[1]
“The Pentagon is developing a requirement that every major military installation in the continental U.S. be able to sustain essential operations on its own for at least 90 days, Fox News Digital reported Oct. 25, citing internal planning documents.

Listen to the government. Be a prepper.
