COP Keating was established in a remote location near the town of Kamdesh of Nuristan province in North Eastern Afghanistan approximately 25 km from the Pakistan border along the only improved dirt road in the Kamdesh District. OP Fritsche was established 2.2 Km straight line distance to the southeast, non-line of sight with an elevation difference of 2150 ft. from Keating. The COP was surrounded by extremely rugged, mountainous high ground and is positioned to interdict historic trafficking routes to and from Pakistan. We arrived in Country in June, and the temperature was already ranging between 110 to 115 degrees in Jalalabad. The turbines from the Chinook only added to the scorching temperature which, did not help us out at all. Several of the guys were becoming hot weather casualties, but we pushed all the way through to Forward Operating Base (FOB) Bostic. All personnel, we …show more content…
He informed us that the plans for the COP was for it to be closed down and that our main mission was to hold ground until the plans were complete. The first thing that was on our agenda was COP security. 1st PLT was assigned to conduct combat patrols first, since most of the patrols from the left seat, right seat rides were executed by us. We improved the COP security between patrols as 3rd PLT defended the COP from the fighting positions that were made of the HWMMVs. Improvement of the COP security was so important because there was only one strand of concertina wire surrounding the COP, in some places there was none, and in other places the wire had been pressed down by the weight of the snow from the previous winter. Every day we patrolled, and after we continued to improve COP security. We carried up dozens of strands of concertina wire, pickets, and rolls of barbwire, and picket pounders; up the side of the
Furthermore, Mangan told Spokane's citizens that they have a good police department, although the department has some severe restrictions regarding how many people they have working in the office. Mangan deliberated his concerns with the citizens that they needed to build the police headquarters up and he needs the citizens to become volunteers. The turnaround year for the police division was within Mangan’s second year when he turned his attention to making changes about the sector itself. While, Mangan was still open about his goals for the Spokane Community and willing to adopt a more community-based, proactive approach to policing, he needed to transmit his mission to all the levels of the organization.
Chief Fortier made internal changes to policy and procedure with a new emphasis on how things were to be done in a more organized manner to include the way warrants were obtained and the allocation of vehicles in the patrol division. These measures were not well received by the department and when the Chief cut court overtime the all out adversarial dynamic between the officers and the Chief was an all out war. Chief Fortier attempted to deal with the police union regarding labor agreements and his agenda for the future but was met with extreme push-back. Dealing with Labor Unions is an external role that is one of the few attempts made by Chief Fortier to be externally focused. The police union ultimately felt that the Chief was against the interests of the officers and the mission became getting Chief Fortier out of office which would make the next five years a hard battle to make positive lasting change.
On September 6th, the Ontario Provincial Police (OPP) staged a nighttime raid on the camp.

Chris McCandless: Spiritual Revolutionary of the Primordial World Chris McCandless, a young, nonconformist man, died in the Alaskan wilderness trying to live off the land there. Some laud McCandless for his transcendentalist behavior and unique, nonconformist beliefs; others call McCandless a reckless fool whose impulsive actions ended up costing his life. Chris McCandless was ultimately a modern day transcendentalist because he believed that nature was purer than society, a common transcendentalist belief. An inscription McCandless engraved in Fairbanks bus 142 indicatesthat he thought of society as poisonous, thus making nature purer than society in McCandless’s mind. In September of 1992, Alaskan hunters found McCandless’s body

The aviation assets arrived on station approximately 20 minutes after the initial attack began. Over all, the attack lasted about 4 hours. “The bloodiest battle” since the war in Afghanistan began is what the battle of Wanat has come to be known as. Nine U.S. Soldiers killed, between 21 and 51 militants killed, and 20 to 40 militants injured at the completion of the battle. Shortly after the battle, the U.S. withdrew from the area (The Staff of the US Army Combat Studies Institute, 2010,
While not on a scale anywhere near the events ASAC Kowenhover and Chief Belmar were in charge of, the community I police has been in a crisis of its own. In recent years the precinct I oversee has been subjected to brutal gang violence. There have been seventeen gang related homicides, many of the victims, teenagers, have resulted in federal prosecutions. Weekly meetings with members of the FBI Gang Task Force, HSI and my agency have helped develop trust and eased coordination with the continuing investigations. Each agency has a role and cooperates fully with the other agencies.

The NSW Police Force (NSWPF) are expected to comply with the ideals and expectations outlined in legislation and policy documents. These documents provide ethical, moral and legal principles to shape the decision-making process of police in the execution of their duty. This essay will discuss the failures of police to comply with these principles in dealing with potential juvenile offenders in the scenario. It will do this by examining their actions with reference to NSW legislation and relevant police force policy documents, discretionary powers and their application in the scenario, and communication techniques which could have had a more positive impact while complying with the directives of the NSWPF.
In his article “Opinion: Proposed police reforms come from all corners, cover broad range”, Ken Armstrong ulitizes rhetoric techniques of ethos and pathos to convey in the necessity of heighted police reform across its regulations, among America. Proposals, express the necessity for inevitable change among the regulation of the national police department, “have come from scholars...and the police themselves”, those who have experienced the flaws that derive from the lack of organization among the police force in America, as they live their daily lives (Armstrong, 2016, paragraph 3). This sense of credibility that Armstrong conveys that fueled his ideas of police reform among American society, emphasizes his use of ethos to portray the importance
Luttrell and his team then fly out to Baluchistan, one of the most dangerous parts of the world for Americans. Once they land and the team is on base, Luttrell begins to think a lot about home and what happened to lead him up to being a SEAL. He talks about his training and what has all prepared him for being a SEAL and going into combat against America’s enemies. He goes into detail about the rigorous training he and hundreds are forced to go through, and how the majority of recruits aren’t tough enough and drop out. He describes the three phases of BUD/S and how after the Hell week of phase one, only 30 recruits are left.
Pg 90, 1st column,-“we tend to loose sight….continue to grow himself.” This quote was basically about it takes a village to raise a child. The parents in this movie were sending their children off to be raised by all of these teachers. John Keating taught them to keep an open mind when others were teaching conformity.

From the study of criminology and psychology, many researchers discovered that terrorists would choose to use different strategies to avoid giving useful information in the police interview. In 2000, Manchester Metropolitan police arrest a group of terrorists members, and in their house, police found a document named Manchester Manual that wrote about the information of behaviour in the interrogation to protect their group and enable them to use it flexibly(Clemens et al, 2013). From this experiences, the polices started to try to discover different tactics that detainee use to withhold the information in the questioning. One finding that both psychologist and police found to improve the quality of the interrogation is to understudied the
