Florida Counterterrorism Activities and Visits/5-9 February 2008






This is my first military trip. I visited three unified commands: two geographical and one functional command. Learn more about U.S. military command infrastructure as well as include a visit to a large US Port and receive briefings on the various levels of security employed.

CENTCOM is possibly the busiest US combatant command with both Afghanistan and Iraq in their AOR.

SOCOM is a functional command that supports the geographic command with special operations requirements.

SOUTHCOM is a geographical command responsible for Latin America (south of Mexico), the Caribbean and South America.

While in Miami I also visited the Port of Miami and toured the Florida Everglades, the only subtropical preserve in North America and a designated UNESCO site.
