Prerequisite: None
Agencies performing routine law enforcement duties, no matter how
exciting these duties may be, are by the very nature of our culture and
value system unprepared to make the mental adjustment that will be
required in order to mitigate the catastrophic results intended in a
well coordinated terrorist attack. The Interactive Terrorism Brief is
designed to give first responders key indicators that their community
is indeed under attack, thus preparing them to make the mental shift --
from peace officer to warrior -- required in order to protect their
jurisdiction.
This unique brief highlights the terrorist mindset; current
terrorist tactics, techniques, and procedures (TTP); and improved
explosive devices (IEDs). The training addresses this information
utilizing a plausible, multi-campaign attack scenario which includes
vehicle-borne IEDs, a hostage situation, and a body bomb incident.
