Yes, you read that right. And no, this isn't a joke. Conplan 8888 even says so in its wording, stating "This plan was not actually designed as a joke." The United States Department of Defense actually has a zombie response plan on file. Wow.
Apparently, due to the popularity of zombie movies, television and video games, the government decided they'd better get their butts in gear and have some kind of plan to refer to in case the zombie apocalypse actually hits.

Unauthorized users probe these systems over 6 million times a day. And now Army Gen. Keith Alexander, CyberCom's chief and director of the National Security Agency, has admitted that the command has a long way to go before it can adequately defend against attacks on military networks.
National Defense Magazine reports that CyberCom currently lacks the ability to view the DoD's digital domain in real time--a weakness that prevents the command from preventing attacks before they happen. In a speech at the Center for Strategic and International Studies in Washington, Alexander explained: "We are policing after the fact,...
