Safeguards Against Terrorists: A Handbook for U. S. Military Personnel and Families.

Abstract

The author contends that Americans overseas, and particularly senior U.S. military personnel, are popular terrorist targets, thus military personnel and their families need to be aware of the terrorist threat and have sufficient knowledge and training to protect themselves. This paper presents many practical safeguards which, if followed, would contribute to the security, productivity, and war-fighting readiness of military people, their families and associates. The paper covers the nature of the terrorist threat; the importance of prior family awareness, study, training and preparation; physical security measures; and kidnap prevention.
