INTRODUCTION
Increased incidents of terrorism, hostage taking, and kidnapping have made the mission of protection
and providing security for principals extremely difficult. Preparation for these missions begins in
advance of the principal's arrival and requires a long and detailed process. Military police (MP) will be
heavily involved in preparing for a principal's visit to their installation.
NOTE:
The "principal" is the subject of protective services missions. He is also referred to as "very
important person (VIP)" and "designated person." For the purpose of convenience, the term
"principal" will be used throughout the lesson.
