The Pentagon just set its survival number: 90 days with no civilian power, water, fuel or communications at every major base in the lower 48. The government’s number for your house is still three days. Ready.gov, the EU and Britain all say 72 hours. That is the gap.
The men paid to study the threat are buying reactors and 90-day fuel reserves. They tell you to buy a flashlight and a case of water. If their number is right, your pantry is empty on day four.
The failure runs in order, not all at once. The first 72 hours take the cell towers, the gas pumps and the card readers. Week two takes the water plant, the sewer lift stations and the pharmacy, because their on-site generator fuel runs out and the trucks that refill them are on contract to the base. From there to day ninety it is whatever you walked in with.
What’s confirmed is the 90-day target in the FORTRESS documents and three reactors slated for Fort Benning by 2028. Picture the orange pill bottle on your counter with four pills left and no refill coming.
The risk for your family is a pantry, a medicine cabinet and a bathroom stocked for a three-day storm while the Pentagon’s own planning number is ninety.
This week: get every prescription in the house to a 90-day fill. Build a bathroom that works with the sewer dead. Stage ninety days of cooking and heating fuel.
