    1. REFERENCE MSG REQUESTED INPUT TO AN UPDATED BASELINE THREAT
    REFERENCE DOCUMENT FOR AIR BASE OPERABILITY. WE CONCUR WITH THE
    NEED TO UPDATE THIS DOCUMENT AND OFFER THE FOLLOWING COMMENTS:
    A. WE SHOULD ALIGN THE DOCUMENT WITH EACH COMMANDER IN CHIEF'S

    COUNTRY. REGIONS AND/OR COUNTRIES MAY BE GROUPED WITHIN EACH
    
    PAGE O2 RUEAHQA8883 UNCLAS
    DOCUMENT, AS DESIRED. RATIONALE: WE SUPPORT EACH CINC, SO THE ABO
    THREAT DOCUMENT SHOULD BE ALIGNED BY CINC AOR AS WELL.
    B. THE DOCUMENT SHOULD INCLUDE A DISCUSSION OF TOXIC INDUSTRIAL
    CHEMICALS, CHEMICAL WARFARE PRECURSORS, AND THEIR BIOLOGICAL WARFARE `
    COUNTERPARTS. RATIONALE: PREMIXED, WARFARE-STRENGTH BIOCHEMICALS
    MAY NOT BE THE ONLY THREATS TO ACKNOWLEDGE. THE ABILITY TO STEAL    
    COMMERCIAL BIOCHEMICALS AND MIX VIABLE AGENTS IS RELATIVELY EASY, SO
    THIS POSSIBILITY SHOULD NOT BE OVERLOOKED.
    C. RECOMMEND DOCUMENT BE CROSS-REFERENCED AS REQUIRED TO COVER AIR
    AND CHEM-BIO THREATS FROM BOTH TERRORISTS AND SUBNATIONAL GROUPS.
    RATIONALE: CROSS-REFERENCING WILL ENSURE EACH THREAT IS FULLY
