FM 19-10: Military Police Law and Order Operations 2 FM 19-10 FM 19-10 3 4 FM 19-10 *FM 19-10 Field Manual HEADQUARTERS No. 19-10 DEPARTMENT OF THE ARMY Washington, DC, 30 September 1987 MILITARY POLICE LAW AND ORDER OPERATIONS Preface One of the most important missions the Army has is to maintain its readiness. Unit readiness rests on the morale, discipline, and training of its soldiers. It rests equally on having quality soldiers and their families feel good about life in the Army community. Our soldiers and their families must have a safe and secure environment in which to live, work, and train. The military police (MP) accept that challenge daily. MP protect the Army’s assets through active physical security measures. And MP undertake a vigorous economic crime program. They guard the Army’s people and installations against terrorist threats. Their initiatives in crime prevention and family advocacy and their “work friendly” attitude show they care about soldiers and their families. MP unstintingly fulfill their law and order mission, knowing it to be vital to the Army’s success in combat. This field manual (FM) discusses each element of the MP law and order mission. It addresses law enforcement operations, investigations, confinement of US military prisoners, and terrorism counteraction. This FM will assist MP in understanding how each of these elements is an essential part of their law and order mission. Commanders will find it useful in understanding how MP help support the fulfillment of command responsibilities. Because many aspects of the MP law and order mission are undertaken largely to provide a safe environment for the total Army community, much of the discussion in this FM is devoted to MP law and order responsibilities in a peacetime environment. The proponent of this publication is Headquarters, US Army Training and Doctrine Command (TRADOC).

  • NRA Police Pistol Combat Rule Book
    NRA Police Pistol Combat Rule Book 2020 Amendments On January 4, 2020, the NRA Board of Directors approved the Law Enforcement Assistance Committees request to amend the NRA Police Pistol Combat Rule Book. These amendments have been incorporated into this web based printable PPC Rule Book. The 2020 amendments are as follows: Amendment 1 is in response to competitor requests concerning team matches at the National Police Shooting Championships. Current rules require that team match membership be comprised of members from the same law enforcement agency. A large percentage of competitors who attend the Championships are solo shooters, meaning they are the only member of their agency in attendance. The amendment allows the Championships to offer a stand-alone NPSC State Team Match so that solo competitors from the same state can compete as a team. The Match will be fired at the same time as regular team matches so no additional range time is needed, and State Team scores will only be used to determine placement in the State Team Match. NPSC State Team Match scores will not be used in determining National Team Champions, however they are eligible for National Records for NPSC State Team Matches. The amendment allows solo shooters the opportunity to fire additional sanctioned matches at the Championships and enhance team participation. 2.9 National Police Shooting Championships State Team Matches: The Tournament Director of the National Police Shooting Championships may offer two officer Open Class and Duty Gun Division NPSC Team Matches where team membership is comprised of competitors from the same state.

  • The German Military and Hitler
    RESOURCES ON THE GERMAN MILITARY AND THE HOLOCAUST The German Military and Hitler Adolf Hitler addresses a rally of the Nazi paramilitary formation, the SA (Sturmabteilung), in 1933. By 1934, the SA had grown to nearly four million members, significantly outnumbering the 100,000 man professional army. US Holocaust Memorial Museum, courtesy of William O. McWorkman The military played an important role in Germany. It was closely identified with the essence of the nation and operated largely independent of civilian control or politics. With the 1919 Treaty of Versailles after World War I, the victorious powers attempted to undercut the basis for German militarism by imposing restrictions on the German armed forces, including limiting the army to 100,000 men, curtailing the navy, eliminating the air force, and abolishing the military training academies and the General Staff (the elite German military planning institution). On February 3, 1933, four days after being appointed chancellor, Adolf Hitler met with top military leaders to talk candidly about his plans to establish a dictatorship, rebuild the military, reclaim lost territories, and wage war. Although they shared many policy goals (including the cancellation of the Treaty of Versailles, the continued >> RESOURCES ON THE GERMAN MILITARY AND THE HOLOCAUST German Military Leadership and Hitler (continued) expansion of the German armed forces, and the destruction of the perceived communist threat both at home and abroad), many among the military leadership did not fully trust Hitler because of his radicalism and populism. In the following years, however, Hitler gradually established full authority over the military. For example, the 1934 purge of the Nazi Party paramilitary formation, the SA (Sturmabteilung), helped solidify the military’s position in the Third Reich and win the support of its leaders.

  • Law Enforcement Intelligence: a Guide for State, Local, and Tribal Law Enforcement Agencies
    David L. Carter, Ph.D. School of Criminal Justice Michigan State University Law Enforcement Intelligence: A Guide for State, Local, and Tribal Law Enforcement Agencies November 2004 David L. Carter, Ph.D. This project was supported by Cooperative Agreement #2003-CK-WX-0455 by the U.S. Department of Justice Office of Community Oriented Policing Services. Points of view or opinions contained in this document are those of the author and do not necessarily represent the official position or policies of the U.S. Department of Justice or Michigan State University. Preface The world of law enforcement intelligence has changed dramatically since September 11, 2001. State, local, and tribal law enforcement agencies have been tasked with a variety of new responsibilities; intelligence is just one. In addition, the intelligence discipline has evolved significantly in recent years. As these various trends have merged, increasing numbers of American law enforcement agencies have begun to explore, and sometimes embrace, the intelligence function. This guide is intended to help them in this process. The guide is directed primarily toward state, local, and tribal law enforcement agencies of all sizes that need to develop or reinvigorate their intelligence function. Rather than being a manual to teach a person how to be an intelligence analyst, it is directed toward that manager, supervisor, or officer who is assigned to create an intelligence function. It is intended to provide ideas, definitions, concepts, policies, and resources. It is a primer- a place to start on a new managerial journey. Every effort was made to incorporate the state of the art in law enforcement intelligence: Intelligence-Led Policing, the National Criminal Intelligence Sharing Plan, the FBI Intelligence Program, the array of new intelligence activities occurring in the Department of Homeland Security, community policing, and various other significant developments in the reengineered arena of intelligence.
