MILITARY POLICE . 19-14-2 24 curriculum is standardized and comparable to that of the Military Police Corps. The unarmed self- defense training is based on a mixture of techniques derived from different philosophies and disciplines that FLETC believes provide the best means for agents to protect themselves while employing the appropriate level of force. Handcuffng and other arrest techniques are also taught. In addition, crowd/riot control techniques are presented to all Uniformed Police Training Program students and, upon request, to agency personnel during in-service training. Due to variations in local policies and weapons employed, nonlethal weapons munitions are covered at the agency level. Finally, the Physical Techniques Division supervises athletic trainers, instructs students on proper nutrition, monitors the physical training of students, and administers the physical effciency battery—the FLETC version of the Army physical ftness test. Many agencies do not have minimum physical ftness entry standards or a physical effciency battery, and most do not require organized physical training. At FLETC, a physical effciency battery is administered upon entry and again before graduation. The athletic training staff provides treatment for all instructors and students. It also instructs the Tactical Medical Course—a class that was recently added to the curriculum, which can also be extracted and taught as a stand-alone block of instruction. Driver and Marine Division The Driver and Marine Division consists of the Basic Driv ing Branch, Advanced Training Branch, Driver Instructor Branch, Marine Training Branch, and Simulator Instructor Branch. The driv ing branches within the Driver and Marine Division make use of four range sets built on an old tarmac that was used by blimps when the Glynco facility was a naval air station. Each range set consists of a high- speed range, a nonemergency vehicle operations course, and a skid pad. The driv ing branches conduct all FLETC basic and advanced driving courses, including training on vehicle stops, off-road driving, high-speed pursuits, vehicle-handling techniques, motor cade operations, protective driving, night driving, specialty vehicle (van, bus) driving, impaired-driver stops, and traffc investigations. They also provide driver instructor training. The Marine Training Branch maintains the of FLETC boats and instructs all Glynco FLETC marine classes—some of which are con ducted in classrooms, but many of which are conducted at the marine which is located at a local marina in Darien, Georgia. The class is the Marine Law Enforcement Training Program, which is a basic marine class for agents who require boat handling and marine navigation skills in the execution of their law enforcement duties (border protection, customs operations). The class is open to local, state, and federal law enforcement agents. The Simulator Instructor Branch maintains and operates simulators used during driving and marine classes. The use of simulators allows students to gain operational experience in a controlled environment. Technical Operations Division The Technical Operations Division, which consists of the Digital Forensics Branch and Law Enforcement Technologies Branch, provides training that is focused on electronic technology used for investigative purposes, such as seized computers or mobile devices. Enforcement Operations Division The Enforcement Operations Division—which consists of the Practical Applications Branch, Basic Response Branch, Active Response Branch, and Operational Skills Branch— makes use of lectures and practical exercises to instruct basic and advanced students on operational tactics and techniques such as clearing rooms, using force, and handling active shooters. Simulated law enforcement situations (designed to integrate several topics) and many weeks of training are presented to the students, and their responses are evaluated by the division. Legal Division The Legal Division provides training on constitutional law, criminal law, search and seizure, and civil liability. Advanced Forensic Techniques in Crime Scene Investigation students process the scene of a simulated vehicular death.
