Force Protection

Before the incident is when the terrorist is susceptible to detection.

  If you see it, or suspect it, REPORT IT!

Did you know that before any terrorist attack, someone "checks out" the target? Some methods used are:

·         Surveillance: Observation and recording of the target, area around the target, and personnel interacting with the target. Some techniques include photographing, sketching, and video taping.

·         Elicitation: Subtle elicitation of information during an apparently normal and innocent conversation. Most operatives are well trained to take advantage of professional or social opportunities to interact with persons who have access to information. This can occur at any location, to include a restaurant, bar, store, on the Internet, or the phone.

·         Test of Security: Testing the weakness identified and observation of the reaction by security personnel. Some techniques include attempts to enter a facility or installation, false alarms, and "dry runs."

Report any of the following activities:

·         Sketching, mapping, surveillance, or photographing of US facilities, activities, or personnel.

·         Suspicious vehicles or individuals.

·         Individual asking suspicious questions about US facilities, activities, or personnel.

·         Unauthorized individuals attempting to gain access to US facilities or installations.

·         Theft of, or attempts to obtain, military uniforms, identifications cards, equipment, or vehicles.

·         Information concerning any international or domestic terrorist activity or sabotage.

·         Attempted or planned assassination of anyone by terrorists or agents of a foreign power.

·         Incidents in which terrorist groups or foreign countries offer employment to US personnel in the design, manufacture, maintenance, or employment of weapons of mass destruction.

Report it!

      If you believe the information is critical or time sensitive, contact military, local, state or federal law enforcement immediately.
