NIAGARA FALLS AIR RESERVE STATION, NY. -- Increased force protective measures are being implemented at Niagara Falls ARS as well as other military installations around the world in response to a recent directive by US Northern Command. These measures outline specific actions that should be taken to protect its personnel and resources.

As a result of this change, individuals visiting the installation for issues such as ID cards may experience delays if they currently do not possess a DoD issued ID card. Also, parking around buildings as well as entry and exit points will be limited.

Force protection is critical to ensure DOD capabilities that are required to perform all of our war-fighting missions.
