[FedCom] Federal prisons and detention centers

[StormBringer]

Most of the traffic on the FBOP system will be on weekdays,  "Work Call" in
the mornings, meal times and routine traffic in various departments during
the day. Weekends are a little on the lean side, but the meals, recall back
to the housing units and some misc traffic  such as people going to/from
visits should be there. Milan is a fairly big institution with 1300 or so
people there, so it should be an active system until after 9 or 10 at
night. If there is a celebrity staying as a guest, you might hear
"celebrity on the compound" when he/she is moving about if the compound is
closed. Kind of a joke among the guards. When count clears, especially the
two important "national counts" that gets reported to DC, you might hear
"count is clear, xxx souls on board.. I guess that depends on the
institution and discipline there. Some institutions will make an
announcement "Wardens onboard" when the Warden walks through the front
door. More or less a thing to make sure nobody is slacking off.
