The Rapid Assessment and Initial Detection (RAID) Program.

Abstract

Terrorism has been and continues to be a critical problem for the United States. In 1998, the Department of Defense initiated a program that designated the National Guard as the first military responder to the use of weapons of mass destruction in the continental United States. This paper examines the existing structure of the Rapid Assessment and Initial Detection (RAID) elements in light of technological advances which may take place by the year 2020.
