INTRODUCTION
Bomb threats present serious potential danger to an activity or post.
The motives, targets and bombers, themselves, are diversified. Due to this
fact, bomb threat planning and training is an important part of any physical
security program. Physical security personnel must develop an awareness of
the serious nature of bomb threats; they must understand preplanning
considerations and how to prepare a bomb threat plan. They must understand
actions to take during an after receipt of a threat.
They must also
understand the various responsibilities relative to bomb threats.
Your
office telephone rings and the voice on the other end says..."A bomb is
going to explode..etc., etc..."
Would you know how to respond?
As the
physical security officer, once you are notified of such a call, would you
know what to do?
Contingency planning and training would prepare you for
handling the incident.
