The purpose of the threat is to seize and maintain the initiative while degrading or eliminating the enemy’s flexibility and capability to sustain both close and deep fights. THREAT PURPOSE FM 3-19.1 PAGE 3-1
LEVEL I: Those which can be defeated by Base or Base-Cluster self-defense measures. LEVEL II: Those which are beyond base or base-cluster self-defense, and can be defeated by response forces, normally MP with supporting fires.

Examples of PIR’s: Any Enemy Size Force, NBC Contaminated Area, Assassinations, Breach of Base Security measures, and Criminal Activity. Examples of IR’s: Damage to roads, Locations of DZ’s/LZ’s, Possible Ambush Sites, Hospitals, External Fuel Sites, Water Sites, etc. PRIORITY INTELLIGENCE REQUIREMENTS/INFORMATION REQUIREMENTS

AIR BASE GROUND DEFENSE(ABGD) Local security measures, both normal and emergency, required to nullify and reduce the effectiveness of the enemy ground attack directed against USAF bases and installations.
ABGD OBJECTIVE The objective of ABGD is to prevent the degradation of sortie generation by detecting and disrupting the enemy ground forces far enough from the base to prevent the use of stand off or direct fire weapons. • ABGD Requires: • MP to have special coordination with the USAF • MP to treat ABGD like any other base or base cluster
