Download or read book Force Protection Safety Number 93 9 written by and published by . This book was released on 1993 with total page 74 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Force protection is the fourth element of combat power. Along with maneuver, firepower, and leadership, the effective application of force protection enables a commander to apply his unit's full measure of combat capability. Force protection includes many elements to include operation security (OPSEC), tactical survivability, fratricide prevention and safety. Safety is the largest element of force protection, and it overlaps many of the other elements. Yet, during conflicts in this century, more American fighting men and women have been lost to nonbattle injuries and deaths than to enemy action. Obviously, if the force is protected by fewer accidents, more combat power can be brought on the enemy. In other words, force protection (safety) protects us from ourselves. In the spring of 1993, the United States Army Safety Center (USASC) and the National Training Center (NTC) assessed a brigade task force in force protection-related issues. Tactics, techniques, and procedures (TTP) used during the trainup for, and subsequent, NTC rotation resulted in a significantly reduced accident casualty rate. Not only did the units reduce nonbattle losses, their tactical performance was good also.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: William J. Perry, Secretary of Defense, in his Report to the President and Congress on the Protection of U.S. Forces Deployed Abroad on 15 September 1996 said: " ... the Kilobar Towers attack should be seen as a watershed event pointing the way to a radically new mindset and dramatic changes in the way we protect our forces deployed overseas from this growing threat." In response to this attack and the growing potential for more attacks by terrorists, irregular forces, and disenchanted employees against its bases and facilities and personnel, the Air Force has taken an integrated approach to Force Protection. There is a recognition that Force Protection is not a Security Police operation; but is a Security Force oDeration. This exemplifies a mindset change and a movement away from pure.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Prior to the Khobar Towers bombing, in June 1996, "force protection" was not a wholesale term in the Air Force. Antiterrorism was the expression used to describe measures taken to deter terrorist attacks and protect installations. Force protection is not a synonym for antiterrorism. Instead force protection is a larger effort designed to provide comprehensive security for personnel and resources with antiterrorism being a subset. This paper will canvass force protection measures against ground attacks from strategic to tactical levels for Air Force personnel and resources in the U.S. Central Command theater of operations.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Public safety professionals and emergency responders today face greater threats than ever before in our history. The traditional role of law enforcement has vastly expanded to require extraordinarily broad-based emergency response capabilities. Law Enforcement Responder: Principles of Emergency Medicine, Rescue, and Force Protection prepares homeland security leaders, law enforcement officers, security professionals, and public safety officials for the wide range of emergency responses they must perform on a daily basis. The textbook addresses all of the competency statements in the National EMS Education Standards at the Emergency Medical Responder level, as well as additional lifesaving content specific to law enforcement that far exceeds the core curriculum. Important Notice: The digital edition of this book is missing some of the images or content found in the physical edition.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This Defense Science Board report recommends improvements for protecting military forces engaged in counterinsurgency, stability, and related operations. These protracted operations have no front lines and entail U.S. forces distributed and intermingled within the local populace; the same populace that adaptive enemies attempt to hide within. While its subject is force protection, the task force has little to say about armor, fences, portals, and other defensive measures. Such defensive measures are only one ingredient of force protection. At least as important are offensive mind set, information, and "winning trust, hearts and minds." It is these other elements of force protection that are the focus of this report. There are two major themes: empowering the "strategic corporal" and transforming the Department of Defense (DoD) into an adaptive learning organization. Stability and counterinsurgency operations place huge burdens on junior officers, non-commissioned officers (NCOs), and the units they command. Today they are making decisions traditionally considered far above their pay grades. For these missions, small unit performance represents the key to success since tactical actions inevitably have strategic implications. Success in these type of operations also requires that DoD adapt to rapidly changing circumstances and the action of dangerous adversaries who themselves are highly adaptable. U.S. military forces are making progress toward becoming such a learning organization, but much more needs to be done. Within the Pentagon there is often excessive focus on materiel as "the solution" and technology applied solely to materiel development. In contrast, this task force has centered its attention on training, leader development, professional military education, and how those factors contribute to enhancing small unit effectiveness, cultural awareness, tactical intelligence, information operations, and rapid learning and sharing of experiences.
Download or read book Force Protection Doctrine an Operational Necessity written by and published by . This book was released on 1998 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Given the current world order with the U.S. as the only superpower, our level of global commitment remains high and as such the U.S. can expect its armed forces to be engaged in multiple MOOTWs worldwide now and for the foreseeable future. As we have seen in Beirut, Khobar Towers, and even in Somalia, these operations can be just as deadly as full-scale war. Force protection for all future military operations must therefore be seriously considered as a critical function at the operational level, not just as independent efforts at the tactical level as we have seen in the past. We must develope a joint force protection doctrine which is focused at the operational level and geared for MOOTWs. This doctrine should include the intelligence infrastructure necessary to best serve the CINCs. It should also include physical security precautions as well as education and training procedures. We will never be able to predict nor thwart every potential attack against U.S. forces conducting MOOTW. However, it is apparent that our approach to force protection has to change, by first establishing an operational focus. We owe it to our troops and our country.

Download or read book Force Protection Through Security of the Ground Lines of Communication GLOC written by David J. Kolleda and published by . This book was released on 1995 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This monograph discusses the importance of understanding the impact that a failure to provide for security of the Ground Lines of Communication (GLOC) can have on the successful execution of tactical operations. The problem facing military planners is a lack of knowledge and guidance to provide for deliberately establishing conditions to protect against threat actions upon the GLOC and enable the service support forces to provide continuous support. There is no single reference in the common professional soldier's library that addresses and analyzes methods of conducting defensive techniques to protect the ground, and specifically highway, lines of communication during times of conflict. This monograph first identifies the theoretical applications of GLOC security as presented by the early military theorists, then provides analysis of the occurrences and outcomes of pertinent events in past conflicts, analyzing the relevance of ensured sustainment support. It further addresses GLOC security operations in the US Army Force XXI concept and during more contemporary Operations Other Than War (OOTW) deployments. This monograph concludes by identifying what US Army doctrine states relative to GLOC security guidance and operations, what history demonstrates as true, what is lacking between the two, and recommendations on how to bring the doctrinal base and historical knowledge in line in an attempt to provide appropriate planing guidance for the operation and security of ground lines of communication during military operations. The study recommends changes or improvements in the following areas: countermine and survivability doctrine, and the tactical concept of operations required to maintain unity of effort over GLOC security. The primary element is to provide tactical planning guidance that includes techniques for developing an integrated plan for providing tactical"--Abstract

Download or read book Defending Air Bases in an Age of Insurgency written by Shannon Caudill and published by Military Bookshop. This book was released on 2014-08 with total page 444 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This anthology discusses the converging operational issues of air base defense and counterinsurgency. It explores the diverse challenges associated with defending air assets and joint personnel in a counterinsurgency environment. The authors are primarily Air Force officers from security forces, intelligence, and the office of special investigations, but works are included from a US Air Force pilot and a Canadian air force officer. The authors examine lessons from Vietnam, Iraq, Afghanistan, and other conflicts as they relate to securing air bases and sustaining air operations in a high-threat counterinsurgency environment. The essays review the capabilities, doctrine, tactics, and training needed in base defense operations and recommend ways in which to build a strong, synchronized ground defense partnership with joint and combined forces. The authors offer recommendations on the development of combat leaders with the depth of knowledge, tactical and operational skill sets, and counterinsurgency mind set necessary to be effective in the modern asymmetric battlefield.
Download or read book Force Protection for Distribution Based Logistics in Asymmetric Warfare written by and published by . This book was released on 2005 with total page 61 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: United States military operations in Iraq and Afghanistan demonstrate that adversaries are likely to persist in seeking advantage through asymmetric warfare. Within this context, emerging doctrine on Network Centric Warfare (NCW) and Effects Based Operations (EBO) must realistically apply to the U.S. Army, and more specifically, to Combat Service Support (CSS) leaders on the battlefield. In light of emerging doctrine, this monograph proposes necessary adaptations to force protection for Distribution-Based Logistics (DBL) under conditions of asymmetric warfare. Building on experience from Vietnam and contemporary operations in Iraq, this study examines the anticipated impact of the Joint Operational Environment (JOE) on CSS operations, including the key issue of tactical distribution. Among its conclusions, this study argues that the Army must insure that CSS leaders in the field have the ability to gain the required situational awareness to support and sustain the tactical commander's force momentum. In addition, the author argues that a transforming Army must balance efficiency and effectiveness to assure CSS units the necessary resources for mission accomplishment on the future asymmetric battlefield.
