prevention programs.
See AR 195-10, FM 19-10, and FM 19-20.
Crime prevention

It further
teaches them the importance of securing and protecting military and personal
property.

out crime prevention information. The program urges everyone to participate. They
can observe and report security deficiencies, violations, or hazards of any sort.

instruction; other competent instructors may present the less important.

depends on their areas of responsibility, training, and experience.
