Multimillion-Dollar Psy Ops Facility Opens In Fort Bragg

by Cloak and Dagger Thursday, Jul. 10, 2003 at 7:10 PM

"Over the past few years, the military and the rest of the world has realized the importance of Psy Ops and how it's a major factor in winning the wars we get involved in," said Sgt. Dan Millbauer, an Army broadcast journalist.

Multimillion-Dollar Psy Ops Facility Opens In Fort Bragg

Facility Will Help Disseminate Information To Foreign Audiences

POSTED: 11:20 a.m. EDT July 1, 2003
UPDATED: 11:35 a.m. EDT July 1, 2003


FORT BRAGG, N.C. -- TV and radio broadcasts may not seem like good weapons of war, but Army officials said they have proven to be successful in Afghanistan and Iraq. A multimillion-dollar facility will increase the effectiveness in getting the sorts of messages out.





High-tech equipment will be used to disseminate important information to foreign audiences.




On post Monday, Fort Bragg leaders opened a new $8 million media operations complex to help with their production. New equipment like printing presses are already in place. More high-tech equipment will be added over the next five years.



"All our work will be done in digital format so that will increase our quality of products and timeliness of our products," said Col. James Treadwell, commander of the 4th Psychological Operations group.



Even though the wars are over in Iraq and Afghanistan, officials said the missions are not over. Every day, soldiers are producing new messages to be sent out in both countries.



The new facility and all its space is expected to increase the support they provide to warfighting commanders.



"Over the past few years, the military and the rest of the world has realized the importance of Psy Ops and how it's a major factor in winning the wars we get involved in," said Sgt. Dan Millbauer, an Army broadcast journalist.



Psychological Operations soldiers at Fort Bragg have recorded more than 20,000 radio hours for broadcast in Iraq and Afghanistan. They have also made more than 150 million leaflets for use in Iraq.

Cultural Imperialism

by Roger Friday, Jul. 11, 2003 at 8:05 AM

How interesting. First we invade the cradle of civilization, whose ancient inhabitants gave us writing, then we bomb the hell out of one of the most historic cities on earth, and stand idly by while great museums, libraries, and centers of learning and culture are "looted." Then we spend milions printing leaflets and recording radio broadcasts to "replace" this ancient and sophisticated culture with American buzzwords and doublespeak. Do I notice a pattern here? Can George W. pronounce "cultural imperialism?" Will the Iraqi people now be taught to embody "Texan values?" The dumbing down of the world continues.

The Bush Junta is...

by Diogenes Saturday, Jul. 12, 2003 at 8:03 AM

...interested in only the following:

Money

Power

Staying out of Jail

No more

To the degree that PsyOps assists them in the "Family Business" they will use it.

"I'm not impressed by your mind games."

You're not fooling anyone with that statement. I've already been told by my PsyOps commander that I'm better than 1,000 micrograms of LSD.
