AUTOMATED SUMMARY

The Pentagon is preparing major U.S. military installations to keep operating for at least 90 days without outside support, according to internal documents reviewed by Fox News Digital. The requirement falls under FORTRESS, an initiative War Secretary Pete Hegseth unveiled on September 30.

Pentagon spokesman Sean Parnell told Fox News Digital that relying on civilian infrastructure is an intolerable risk. The initiative is built on five pillars, including energy independence and a strategic defense reserve, and it covers electricity, water, fuel, and communications.
