what level of defcon are we at during 1969

DEFCON 1 - Evacuation ĭEFCON 1 is the final stage of emergency and signals a full and immediate evacuation of the ship via the Main Hangar. This is seen as a severe threat to the ship, and could result in critical damage to the ship if not contained. Additionally, all critical infrastructure (Engine Room, Port and Starboard Hangar Control rooms, the Starfighter and Command Bridges, and the Brig if it is in use) are to engage Lockdown. Although hostiles are believed to be on-board, they are not deemed to pose a threat to the key infrastructure of the Poseidon.ĭEFCON 2 alerts all troopers to engage hostiles on-ship. Security forces are to sweep the ship and search for possible hostiles on-board.ĭEFCON 3 requires all troopers to immediately cease their current duties, and to engage all hostiles on-board the ship. During this time, all Clones are encouraged to be vigilant and have their weapons on safety. All personnel should continue their normal duties at this level.ĭEFCON 4 indicates that there is a potential threat, however it is either minimal or the severity has not yet been fully recognised. During this time, Clones are expected to have their weapons holstered unless they are members of the Secuirty Directorate, who should have their weapons on safety. The ship will always be at DEFCON 5 unless stated otherwise. There are 5 levels in descending order of severity, with each level requiring a specific response from those onboard the ship.ĭEFCON 5 is the lowest level of danger. The DEFCON system is in place to shorten response time and mitigate panic in emergency situations.
