What is FLKS?  ???

Fort Leavenworth, KS


Over the past 15 years or so, a lot of folks in the US military started using those kinds of abbreviations b/c they fit/sort nicely on spreadsheets when trying to sequence & coordinate multi-base deployments and mobilizations

FICA = Fort Irwin, CA
FBNC = Fort Brangg, NC
FLWA = Fort Lewis, WA
      or...  JBLM = Joint Base Lewis-McCord (since it merged the AFB with the Army post)
FBVA = Fort Belvoir, VA

The Directorate sounds suspiciously similar to the Borg.

"...assimilates all newly assigned personnel into the Directorate..."
