MPs are those people that give out speeding tickets, right? Well perhaps, but there's also a lot more capability they can provide. Dominic Dawes is here with an accessible but comprehensive overview of the roles and functions of military police in land combat operations with his three-part series 'The Manoeuvrist's Guide to Military Police'. Start expanding your understanding of this capability today with Part 1 - Internment and Detention Operations

Equal Justice is a fundamental principle that should apply universally, whether in civilian life or while serving in the Armed Forces. As a Retired Service Member and former Military Police Soldier, I have firsthand witnessed instances where senior officers and senior enlisted individuals receive preferential treatment even after being charged with serious crimes such as Assault, Domestic Violence, DUI, and Possession. Sadly, this disparity in treatment extends beyond the military into civilian life. A recent news article highlighted a concerning case where an Air Force General was allowed to continue serving despite being found guilty on some charges in a Sexual Assault case. Such occurrences are not uncommon, shedding light on the challenges of ensuring accountability and fairness within the military hierarchy. These incidents raise critical questions about the integrity of the military justice system and its impact on the morale and well-being of service members. The need for transparency and accountability in addressing misconduct is paramount to upholding the values of justice and equality within the Armed Forces. #EqualJustice #MilitaryJustice #Accountability #lawenforcement https://lnkd.in/eakpXiTc

This morning, as I sipped my coffee before heading to the office, my close friend David Jones shared a post that, despite its original intent, stirred a profound reaction within me. HONOUR, COURAGE, TRUST - etched on a Special Response Team coin. Known to those in the know, these words transcend mere metal. For the unacquainted, SRTs are elite units in law enforcement, swiftly handling high-risk situations. These words signify profound beliefs, morals, and duty to those who stand behind them, measuring individuals actively seeking injustice, protecting the innocent from this world’s evils. Reflecting on the indispensable pillars of character that shape our personal and professional journey: 🛡️ Honour: In the absence of honour, the bedrock of integrity crumbles, responsibility falters, and ethical conduct becomes a distant ideal. Upholding honour ensures our actions align with principled values, fostering trust and respect. 🦁 Courage: Without courage, we navigate a path of avoidance, sidestepping challenges and forgoing the opportunity to embrace risks. True courage propels us to confront adversity, stand up for what’s right, and catalyse meaningful change, fuelling personal and collective growth. 🤝 Trust: Trust forms the linchpin of relationships. When trust is absent, connections erode, and the pillars of openness, confidence, and reliability crumble. Cultivating trust is foundational for building robust, collaborative networks and fostering an environment of shared success. Embodying these core values transforms a person into an indomitable force, loyal, driven, just unstoppable. Their sheer drive and devotion to success set them apart. A true warrior, a lion in their pursuits, they provide not just for themselves but for those around them. No challenge is too great, and no one can stand in their way. Committed to honour, courage, and trust propels them to outperform, forging a path of unparalleled achievement. In every sense, they are the embodiment of resilience, strength, and the unwavering spirit of Man, Woman, Husband, Wife, Father, Mother on a mission.

Imagine for a moment that your boss—not trained career law enforcement, nor an independent judiciary, nor an independent jury of your peers—was the one to decide whether or not one of your co-workers had committed a serious, violent crime against you. Removing serious crimes like sexual assault and murder from the purview of military commanders, who are not trained to deal with these crimes, is a major step in the right direction. But more should be done to make UCMJ independent from commanders, especially in garrison environments. The whole system of UCMJ is absolutely bonkers, does not serve Soldiers’ best interests, and does not inspire trust in the chain of command. https://lnkd.in/eNyH4m3E

Sometimes a Security professional will have to restrain a person, generally for a handcuffing. That person can be a strong adult, a martial arts practitioner, someone under the influence of some substance - but also a fragile, physically weak person, who nevertheless resists complying. Here again the need for constant and evolving training is paramount. Yes, there are several less-lethal weapons that we can use, but physical preparation and the knowledge of some proper defense and submission techniques are definitely the difference between a successful action or a disaster involving injuries (even fatalities). Not to mention the legal aspects involved, which can dismiss an arrest, lead to a lawsuit or ruin a whole career. #securityconsulting #oscworldwide #securityprofessionals #lawenforcement #police #military #veterans #closeprotection #investigations #riskmanagement #segurança #leadership #bodyguard #compliance #gunsafety #training #ukraine #camouflage #k9 #crime #environment #guns #israel

"While private military companies (PMCs) like Blackwater (now Academi) and Wagner have gained notoriety in war zones, #privatesecuritycompanies (PSCs) are rapidly expanding in non-combat settings. Despite some overlap between the two, PSCs generally protect assets and individuals. Often collaborating with law enforcement, the effectiveness and ethical standards of PSCs vary widely, and armed guards are increasingly common. Security guards in the U.S. in 2021 outnumbered police by about 3:2...As the role of private security continues to expand, regulations must evolve at the same pace. In the U.S., with regulations primarily established at the state level and lacking uniformity, there is a need for greater oversight to address potential issues effectively. Failing to do so will undermine public accountability by allowing private companies to operate with minimal restrictions, as well as deepen societal divides." https://lnkd.in/ehgJs6R9

We are disrupting how training is done through experiential learning and simulations. It's the best way to impart memorable, valuable corporate security lessons to combat cybercrime and fraud. The team building, camaraderie, and culture building are fabulous outcomes. #security #training #teambuilding
