This page was created because NORTHCOM was being directed to NORAD, and that is not correct. NORAD and NORTHCOM are two different organizations. Though NORTHCOM was created only in 2002 and shares its homebase with NORAD, I thought it deserved its own page.

Um, this is weird, but I wrote an article in my college newspaper about the new Northern Command. This was not in 2002...but in 1998. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Kindling76 (talk • contribs) 01:09, 26 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I will find this article and post its contents. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Kindling76 (talk • contribs) 01:10, 26 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

"However, in case of national emergency, natural or man-made, its Air Forces Northern National Security Emergency Preparedness Directorate will take charge of the situation or event.[2]" Makes absolutely no sense whatsoever. The citation is a splash page for a directorate of 1st Air Force that says nothing of the sort. Per NORTHCOM's NNCMD 1 dated 16 SEPTEMBER 2013 Defense Support to Civil Authorities (DCSA) is the purview of Joint Task Force - Civil Support (JTF-CS) which was delegated to US 5th Army (US Army North). - spence.calder 16:35, 10 Jan, 2016

Ths USA = moving more nations from south to Northcommand?

USNORTHCOM

"Significant changes made by UCP 2008 include:

- Realigning the USNORTHCOM and U.S. Southern Command areas of responsibility (AOR) by placing the Bahamas, Puerto Rico, the Virgin Islands, and the Turks and Caicos Islands in the USNORTHCOM AOR. "

who the hell is removing the criticism section

i have added the concern article. dont remove it manchurian candidate 17:13, 16 June 2009 (UTC)

I can think of a couple of reasons it keeps getting removed. For one, it's almost a copy of the section directly below it. Pick one or the other, not both. And second, it appears to be original research at best, particularly the claim that it will be used to impose martial law in the U.S. What? The one reference you had for that doesn't exist, and even if it did it would not qualify as a reputable resource for citation purposes on Wikipedia. Thus, this qualifies the statement as falling under the category of conspiracy theories, something that is not permitted to run free on this site. So either come up with reputable sources for this claim or I'LL delete it per Wikipedia guidelines. Thanks for bringing it to my attention. --ScreaminEagle (talk) 17:55, 16 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

It's been two weeks without any effort on the part of the initial contributor to find adequate sources to prove his strange conspiracy-level theories written here. Deleted, as promised. --ScreaminEagle (talk) 15:04, 1 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]
