European Command Launches Sweeping Vigilance Push as Hybrid Threats Escalate

U.S. European Command has launched a broad security campaign, “See Something, Do Something,” asking troops, civilian employees and military families across Europe to heighten vigilance and improve force protection. The initiative follows incidents in Germany and near RAF Fairford, though the command said it did not identify a specific threat behind the push. Personnel are also urged to tighten digital discipline while traveling or going about daily routines, including reviewing social media privacy settings, turning off geotagging on fitness and mobile apps, and avoiding online posts that reveal locations or travel plans. Command guidance also includes varying commuting routes and schedules to reduce predictability.
