No it's just jargon that orders the postponement of all travel for temporary training or duty, all military moves from one post to another and that sort of travel.

As you know, the military folks spend three years or less at a military assignment before they are ordered to move to another place. This sucks for people who were ordered to move to their new duty station in Germany next week. These folks are stuck where they are now.

Imagine being at Fort Polk and looking forward to flying to Germany for your new duty station next week. The movers have already packed up everything in your house and now -- THIS! You're stuck at Fort Polk in an empty house for who knows how long !!

I've said it a million times: the poor enlisted folks don't get paid enough.

Seems serious to me, but what does it mean in military talk. On a scale from 1 to 10 what is this?

It’s more than that

Keep reading it’s orders everyone to stay put

Can’t even take leave outside your local area

Q7. Can military members still take leave? A7. Service members may only take leave in the local area. This is being done to limit the spread of and potential exposure to COVID-19. Exceptions may be given for compelling 1 cases where the travel is: (1) determined to be mission essential; (2) necessary for humanitarian reasons; or (3) warranted due to extreme hardship

I’m a DoD contractor in Huntsville with a CAC and servicing a facility on Redstone Arsenal.

I obviously won’t find out until Monday but what are the implications on off base private employees?

I know the military has trouble with plain English, but even "movement stop" would be preferable to "stop of movement"

Yes it is a long order! I hope people keep posting WRT what it means for specific kinds of travel. Prohibition of leave outside of your immediate duty area is unheard of to me. That's significant and very rare.

This should not apply to your personal travel. However, I would expect a separate directive from individual bases imposing some kind of contractor restrictions.
