Each commander, i.e., Training Support Division commanders, will take the following Anti-Terrorism and Force Protection policy steps immediately. Vulnerability reviews and assessments must include your buildings, personnel and equipment. Inform your soldiers and involve them in the overall physical security system for their location. Include the civilian work force and family members in the planning sequence. All must be informed, and where appropriate, included in the process.
Awareness is the key.
Not only must those directly responsible for security be aware, everyone must be on the alert. We may have the greatest plans, facilities, and protective forces, but if our soldiers are unaware, we are missing a key link in the safety net, and as commanders are negligent. Protection must be accomplished and with attention to detail.
