Air Force Security Police: Patrol Procedures Pt 1

A film that follows law enforcement personnel on a military base as they patrol and protect Air Force resources while maintaining law and order. Throughout their eight-hour shift, they are granted the authority to apprehend individuals committing offenses and detain non-military criminals. The film showcases the daily activities of these patrolmen, such as vehicle and building checks, enforcing traffic laws, responding to incidents, and escorting funds.

Patrol sectors are developed based on crime analysis, deployment methods, and call prioritization. The film emphasizes the importance of being a visible deterrent to crime and maintaining a sense of unpredictability in patrol schedules. Additionally, patrolmen are often the first to arrive on the scene of an incident, making it crucial for them to evaluate situations and act accordingly.

The film illustrates the various tasks and challenges these patrolmen face, from traffic stops and field interviews to managing accident scenes and ensuring the safety of base personnel and property. As one shift ends, another begins, demonstrating the continuous effort to maintain a safe and efficient environment on the military base.
