How the Pentagon coordinated the global ‘COVID crisis’
The lockstep “live exercise” and DoD combatant commands
For an overview of the USG-led coordination of the early ‘COVID crisis’, see ‘new’ details on DoD Geographic Combatant Commands and their relevance to the Spring 2020 simulated “live exercise”… versus the true crisis that took place during the deadly lockdowns.
How to pull off a ‘pandemic’: “military-military coordination”… of a ‘crisis’
In 2025, the strategic set-up behind the COVID Op is much easier to see in retrospect.
The “manufactured COVID crisis” in March 2020 was deployed after the fact — in order to justify the fast-tracked ‘medical countermeasures’ which had been in the pipeline since the sharing of the ‘sequence’ (if not before).
Terrorizing the public with stories of supposedly catastrophic ‘spread’ (that could be ‘slowed’) was the surest way to justify this rapid ‘vaccine solution’.
Part of the sales pitch (aka psy op) was the need for ‘non pharmaceutical interventions’ in the interim.
The origins of this Whole-of-Washington-led ‘pandemic’ plan - including lockdowns - had been in plain sight since the Pentagon’s Dark Winter simulation in June 2001, and repeatedly rehearsed in the lead up to The Big One.
In June 2019, a 3 minute video by the US Department of Defense - featuring images of a novel coronavirus! - presaged the main event.
Here’s the critical 15 second clip. (Don’t miss the pandemic-preventing hazmat suit in the DoD biolab.)
Current medical product development takes years and often decades before they are shown to be safe and effective enough for widespread use.
In a crisis, this timeline must be shortened to be operationally relevant to the affected civil populations, first responders and our warfighters.
DoD Joint Program Executive Office CBRN Defense - 4 June 2019
(Gotcha: Warp Speed injections “in a crisis” will NOT be “safe and effective”.)
Put another way…
The COVID “live exercise” to develop and deploy “rapid response” public-private medical countermeasures demanded a (manufactured) ‘crisis’… in the form of a ‘disaster response’.
According to a current ‘scientific’ definition, so-called Pandemic Response refers to…
… the coordinated efforts of governments, organizations, and civil society to implement emergency actions to mitigate the health, economic, and societal impacts of a pandemic.
The key descriptor here for emergency actions is the word coordinated.
How is this achieved in the early phase of a ‘global pandemic’ — before it’s even declared?
Is there an entity with world-wide reach capable of coordinating the appearance of a [fake] PHEIC - a Public Health Emergency of International Concern - through the simulation of a ‘disaster response’ to an evolving ‘outbreak’?
Hint: It’s not the (USG-driven) WHO
Recall the declaration of all-out war “against the invisible enemy” by the President of the United States in mid-March 2020…
On 18 March 2020 - two days into the US lockdowns - the Commander-in-Chief emphasized what winning looked like:
(5 sec)
We don’t want people coming into contact because that’s the way we’re gonna win this war. That is so important.
President Trump - 18 March 2020
But it’s not (just) about the first Trump Administration.
The longstanding bipartisan connection between the Pentagon and “international public health” was decades in the making. And it continues in the post-COVID era.
For example, this Biden Administration news release (from a previous post) highlighted how DOD Supports U.S.-Wide Partner and Ally-Focused Global Health Security Strategy:
The Department of Defense is participating in global health security efforts by promoting civil-military and military-military coordination to strengthen health security nationally, regionally, and globally.
DOD responds to bio incidents through deliberate collaboration with other U.S. departments and agencies, as well as allies and partners, working collectively to understand the threat, enhance the preparation and the protection of the force, and quickly respond to and mitigate the effect of bio incidents.
US Department of Defense - April 16, 2024
Which is another way of saying that in the context of ‘biodefense’ against ‘health security’ threats (regardless of alleged ‘origin’ via bat cave, biolab or bioterrorist)…
The US Department of Defense remains uniquely positioned to project the power of the whole-of-US-government globally under the pretext of a ‘pandemic’.
U.S. Global Health Security… and Geographic Combatant Commands
Remember this formula from a post on the US origins of the ‘health security’ construct two decades before the ‘pandemic’?
Homeland Security + Public Health = Health Security
Under Obama, Bush’s ‘homeland security’ model for ‘outbreaks’ would go global.
And the first Trump Administration continued the commitment to a world-wide whole-of-US-government-centric enterprise, with the DoD poised to play a major part in the COVID policy coup - and the global ‘pandemic’ performance.
The role of DoD ‘geographic combatant commands’ in a ‘crisis’ response was explicitly referred to in a (Gates-backed) report on US Global Health Security released by the CSIS (Center for Strategic and International Studies) on the eve of the ‘Wuhan outbreak’, in another extraordinary coincidence of timing.
(The relevant excerpt - from page 44 - has been cut-and-paste onto the cover of the November 2019 report which features crisis actors in Washington…before Wuhan!)

Here’s that sentence again (…just like Abraham Lincoln envisioned):
The geographic combatant commands also engage with their international military partners on health security cooperation.
CSIS Commission report on US Global Health Security - 18 November 2019
Which makes sense in terms of global operational command-and-control of a ‘crisis’.
As per Wikipedia on US DoD geographic combatant commands1:
These commands are responsible for military operations within their specific geographic areas of responsibility (AORs).
For further context on combatant commands as they relate to the COVID “live exercise”, let’s return (again) to the DoD document on Chem-Bio-Rad-Nuc (CBRN) Response.
In terms of US joint military doctrine and defense against ‘biothreats’, the role of US geographic combatant commands (and their commanders - “GCCs”) in biological incident response (as part of ‘CBRN Response’) is clearly outlined with reference to longstanding multinational military agreements.

Now consider the global implications of the United States DoD - with its combatant command structure - as “Lead Federal Agency” for a (phony baloney) International CBRN Response within so-called Areas of Responsibility.

In early 2020, three geographic commands played a key role in the visible ‘outbreak response’ (as noted in previous posts)…
US European Command — and NATO’s Europe Covid-19 Task Force
US Indo-Pacific Command — and USS Theodore Roosevelt
US Northern Command — and Joint Task Force Civil Support
In both theory and practice, the United States DoD ‘CBRN Defense’ operational framework for ‘outbreaks’ underpins the ability of military ‘partners’ to pull off an ‘international response’ — and the pretence of a ‘pandemic’ — with the Pentagon in pole position.
United States European Command and the Spring 2020 PPE charade
In terms of US-centric operational command-and-control of the COVID “live exercise”, the ‘crisis’ in Italy meant USEUCOM (United States European Command) was center stage for the coordinated ‘mission’ that was rolled out during the ‘life-saving’ lockdowns in Spring 2020.2
This was, in effect, a military-industrial PPE procurement-and-delivery performance including boots-on-the-ground to move boxes of masks - as part of ‘biodefense’ - at a time of scripted supply-chain disruption and a shortfall of phony PCR tests.

Here’s an overview of the 2020 PPE theater, Act One (set in Italy), as explained by a representative of USEUCOM’s Interagency Partnering Directorate3 a year after the initial lockdowns:
So, it was in April [2020] that -- that the President's directive came out and -- and we received authorization from the Secretary of Defense and as we got the funding we started contracting locally and -- and as we talk about everything that we've done here in Europe.
So we started doing that contracting, $10 million worth [initially - then up to $100 million]. In that case primarily for personal protective equipment - or what we call PPE - and then for sanitizing agents.
And so working with the Italian Civil Protection Agency, we ordered gloves, gowns, goggles, masks, everything you needed to protect those first line responders as well as the healthcare professionals and the patients so that we minimize the spread of COVID within Italy.
Colonel Kyle Simpson, US Army - USEUCOM J9 Directorate - 5 March 20214
Evidently there is some utility for (otherwise useless) PPE costumes, as $10 million to stage an ‘outbreak’ in Europe goes a long way!

(Serious side note: What was being sprayed in locations where ‘outbreaks’ occurred??)
These were just the opening scenes of the Live Action Role Play in the (literal) European theater of war-against-the-virus over the following 12 months…

The lockdown “live exercise” versus the “care home killing fields”
The “manufactured COVID crisis” - to justify the quarantines and vaccines - had (predictable) damaging and deadly consequences.
In parallel with the highly visible ‘disaster response’ to the phony public health apocalypse in which militaries (and media) played their part - from early ‘humanitarian efforts’ to deliver hand sanitizer at-scale to (later) heavy-handed quarantine enforcement - horrific human rights abuses took place off-stage.
In many cases, nursing home residents were abandoned by staff in the wake of the deliberately-manufactured panic and - coinciding with the blanket lock-out of visitors - left to perish from lack of food and water and basic care, in isolation… contributing to the illusion of a ‘pandemic’ caused by ‘COVID’.5

The extensive body of evidence presented at Scottish COVID-19 Inquiry to this effect is shocking.
To get a sense of the early 2020 role-play versus reality, compare the aforementioned account of Colonel Kyle Simpson (USEUCOM) - about millions of dollars worth of gloves, gowns, goggles, and masks etc deployed across Italy - with the following statement by Shelagh McCall, King’s Counsel, about what happened behind the scenes in locked-down long term care facilities in Scotland during the same period:
‘‘Many families witnessed remotely a significant deterioration of their loved ones physical and mental health in lockdown that was nothing to do with COVID-19. Some suspect that their loved one was suffering from neglect, dehydration and starvation.”
Shelagh McCall, KC for Bereaved Relatives Group Skye - 25 October 2023
The harrowing details of this pre-planned senicide were summed up succinctly by
as follows:—LOCKDOWN—ISOLATION—MEDICAL NEGLECT—DETERIORATION—PRESSURED DNRs—POWER OF ATTORNEY OVERRIDDEN—DEATH CERTIFICATION CHANGES—MISSING/INCOMPLETE MEDICAL RECORDS—PERSONAL BELONGINGS BURNED—POLICE CONTACTED—HUMAN RIGHTS ABUSED—
While PPE paraphernalia was widely recognized for what it was — a gigantic media-hyped ‘wartime’ scam that was central to the staging of a purported ‘pandemic’ — the truth surrounding the care home killing fields remains largely ignored more than five years later.6
To circle back to the President - now in his second term - and the Pentagon’s role in the ‘pandemic’, the key question remains unanswered…
A combatant command - also referred to as a unified combatant command - is…
… a joint military command of the United States Department of Defense that is composed of units from two or more service branches of the United States Armed Forces, and conducts broad and continuing missions.
Wikipedia - Unified Combatant Command
US Transportation Command - a functional combatant command - was also involved with this mission to transport pallets of PPE “to those most in need” across Europe.
Note: In the decade leading up to the COVID event, USEUCOM’s J9 Directorate - an “interagency collaboration that leverages all elements of national power” - had effectively functioned as a whole-of-US-government outpost within its geographical Area of Responsibility. A similar model was adopted by other geographic combatant commands.
Besides hosting federal agency partners, the [US European Command] J9 directorate serves as the Command’s lead for interacting with international and non-governmental organizations, the private sector, think tanks and academia.

The deadly ‘care’ in institutional settings can be linked to prescient protocols that were put in place before ‘COVID’ in line with so-called ‘CBRN response’.
