GENTEXT/COMMANDERS EVALUATION/BOTH PAVE LOWS WHICH ARRIVED YESTERDAY
WERE BUILT UP LAST NIGHT AND WILL BE READY FOR FCF LATER THIS 
MORNING.  SOCCENT LOANED US TWO GENERATORS YESTERDAY SO ALL OUR TENTS
ARE AIR CONDITIONED.  WE NOW HAVE ENOUGH TENTS TO BILLET THE 16SOS
CREWS WHEN THEY ARRIVE.  LAST NIGHT WAS A HECTIC NIGHT FOR ALL AND AN
INDICATION OF THINGS TO COME.  A POTENTIAL TERRORIST CAR BOMB THREAT
HAD US ALL OUT LAST NIGHT MOVING CARS OUT OF THE COMPOUND AND DINING
HALL AREA.  THE LATEST INTELLIGENCE REPORT CAUSED US TO START FINE 
TUNING OUR PLANS TO EVACUATE NON-ESSENTIAL AIRCRAFT AND PEOPLE FROM
KING FAHD.  SINCE OUR ONLY D-DAY MISSION IS CSAR.  WE INTEND TO 
EVACUATE THE MC-130S AND EC-130S ALONG WITH ASSOCIATED PERSONNEL WHEN
HOSTILITIES START.  WE CANNOT SEE EXPOSING VALUABLE RESOURCES TO A 
THREAT IF THEY ARE NOT REQUIRED FOR INITIAL COMBAT OPERATIONS.  COL
JOHNSON (SOCCENT) CONCURS WITH THIS PLAN AND WILL COORDINATE DETAILS 
WITH CENTAF TODAY.  WALKED THROUGH THE BILLETS LAST NIGHT AND WAS 
ENCOURAGED TO SEE MOST TRYING ON THEIR CHEM GEAR JUST TO MAKE SURE
