This posting is not intended to scare anyone just to keep our families safe.

On 26Mar11, three Middle-Eastern males were overheard making hateful and
terroristic threats towards Marines at a gas station in Oceanside, CA.
One of the men asked an attendant for directions to Camp Pendleton, CA,
and left driving the below mentioned silver Toyota.

At 0010/27Mar11, NAEEM approached the Main Gate, MCB CPC, driving a
vehicle which matched the description provided by the Gas Attendant.
While MP’s were searching NAEEM and his vehicle, PETROSSIAN and AVANOSIAN
approached the Main Gate in the below mentioned black Mercedes. After
MP’s signaled the vehicle to stop, the vehicle slowed and then continued
through the gate. A hot stop was initialized by MP’s adjacent Pacific
View Housing.

A physical inspection of the black Mercedes revealed the steering wheel
airbag was tampered with and had duct tape securing it in place with wires
hanging out.

All vehicles were searched by MWD and EOD, which was negative in locating
any explosive materials.

NAEEM was interviewed and claimed not to know PETROSSIAN or AVANOSIAN.
NAEEM stated he was lost and was trying to get to Glendale, CA.

PETROSSIAN and AVANOSIAN were interviewed and also stated they were lost
attempting to reenter Hwy-5 and were trying to get to Glendale, CA.

A criminal background history of the above mentioned persons’ identities
was conducted by the Department of Homeland Security which failed to
identify any derogatory records for the men.

US Border Patrol, confirmed the above individuals immigration status and
confirmed the men were not on any Terrorist watch databases.

All men were released on their own recognizance.

At 0830/27Mar11, NAEEM again approached the Main Gate in his silver
Toyota. NAEEM was questioned and stated after he was released he drove
to the nearby Denny’s Restaurant, washed his face and hands and worked
on “paperwork”. NAEEM stated he made a mistake by reentering the base and
was attempting to access the highway.

NAEEM’s vehicle was searched again by MWD and MP’s and was met with
negative results in locating anything of evidentiary value.

NAEEM was issued a Temporary Letter of Debarment from MCB CPC and was
escorted off MCB CPC and onto Hwy-5 by MP’s.

VEHICLE:
NAEEM: 2011 silver Toyota Corolla 4-door sedan, Ca lic plate, Rental from Enterprise Rent-A-Car

VEHICLE:
PETROSSIAN & AVANOSIAN: 2001 black Mercedes CL 506, 2-door Ca/6PRK028 

So nothing happened...? Good to know. Thanks. 

I just remembered something from that day I wonder if it's connected. 

could that have been what was going on at the front gate? 

Wait the 11 was Friday and this was Sunday.. still interesting. 

No, 11 is the year. It's the 26/27th Viva. 

Who did you get this email from anyway? FRO?

Husband forwarded it to me. It had been sent to him from chain of command. 

Sorry I was talking, reading, and typing on my phone I meant to put sat 26 and it was Sunday. 

That's scary! 

Wow, sh!t went down! 

I remember all the mps out. :/ glad nothing went down! 

Wow that is really scary. 

Scary, I knew it wasnt just a drill. Good to see them on top of it. 

So nothing happened...? Good to know. Thanks. 

LOL 

Scary, I knew it wasnt just a drill. Good to see them on top of it.

I am too, I was for sure it wasnt a drill either.

Makes me wonder if they were testing the main gate for a later attack, I hope the good work of the mps deters them from trying again. 

Makes me wonder if they were testing the main gate for a later attack

Thats exactly what my husband said! 

Makes me wonder if they were testing the main gate for a later attack,

me too "/

EKK thats my housing 

I was stopped this morning at the main gate for a random anti terrorism search. So they are doing their jobs well. 

did they make you give them all your info sarah? 

I am sure they are doing a good job and on high alert after this happened.. 

No I wasn't feeling so hot, and I think he saw that lol. He told me to go home after checking my ID. I was grateful lol 

Ah.. this was the night we came home super late with tons of MPS... OMG! Good thing nothing went down!!

100% ID check would be nice.. but this is Pendleton..afterall... 

This and when people were talking about how they wish they were told when stuff was going on always makes me think about Men in Black. Ya know the part where K is telling J about how the only way people go on with their happy little lives is that they don't know about all the alien invasions and such. We really don't need to know about every little "incident." 

And this is why I think they should do %100 ID checks and have to get temp passes to get on base
agreed...it is like this at some bases... You eather have declas or a pass...or you dont go on...military ID or not....and I think they should be doing that at ALL bases!!!

My friend said she was behind a car that slowed and when was told to stop...sped off this weekend...and about 5MP cars went flyin after him...
scary :( 

That is scary :( I wish they would post third like THIS on the Pendleton website or have it sent from FRO's too. This kind of stuff isn't wanting to "know what your neighbors got the cops called on them for last Friday night" but definitely good info to be alert too. 

Ask your active duty spouse about the e-mail so you can see pics!

Mine says he didn't get it... what does your hubby do? 

I saw them searching a silver toyota yesterday morning coming back on base. They had it all opened up and the right lane was closed. That's crazy. 

Mine says he didn't get it

Same. Mine said he heard nothing about it, that my mention was the first he heard.
