OSI urges JB MDL members to keep 'Eagle Eyes' open Published Oct. 8, 2009 By Senior Airman Bekah Phy Joint Base public affairs JOINT BASE MCGUIRE-DIX-LAKEHURST, N.J. -- Eagle Eyes program officials at the McGuire Office of Special Investigations are urging all joint base members to remain vigilant each and every day. Eagle Eyes is an Air Force anti-terrorism initiative that enlists the eyes and ears of servicemembers and citizens in the war on terrorism. OSI helps inform people about the typical activities terrorists engage in to plan their attacks. With that knowledge, they are better equipped to recognize elements of potential terror planning if it occurs and report it to OSI or 87th Security Forces Squadron personnel. Suspicious and terrorist activities can appear in many ways. A potential terrorist could be someone asking a lot of questions or someone who is quietly, but closely observing activities on the base. Tests of security are popular with potential terrorists and surveillance is another thing to be aware of. If someone suspicious is observing the base or base housing, taking pictures, using binoculars or taking notes, these are all possible terrorist activities that should be reported. Even something as insignificant as someone asking too many questions should be monitored. Something just might not sound right - they might be digging too deep or being too specific about a certain topic. OSI offers full briefings on the Eagle Eyes program to those interested, and information pamphlets are also available. OSI can be reached at (609) 754-3353, and JB MDL security forces at (609) 562-6001.
