432 SFS / Creech AFB Security Forces Comprehensive Study Notes

Task 1 – Core Security Forces (SF) Responsibilities

• All posts/patrols manned IAW Installation Post Priority Chart (PPC).
• Report minimum 30 min before guardmount.
• Flight leadership (S3 Ops / S5 Plans) maintain PPC.

1.1 Use of Force

• Governed by 432 SFOI 31-101 §§1.4–1.4.3 & CJCSI 3121.01B.
• Deadly force must satisfy “objective reasonableness” under totality-of-circumstances.
• 8 Pre-Conditions (plus “Escape / Arrest” split-count):
– Inherent self-defense
– Defense of others
– Assets vital to national security
– Inherently dangerous property
– National critical infrastructure
– Serious offenses against persons
– Escape
– Arrest/Apprehension
• Prior to shooting, give verbal “HALT” when feasible; consider innocent bystanders.

1.2 Vehicle Care & Operation

• Clean/inspect each shift using AF Form 1800; discrepancies to VNCO.
• Daily wash (weather permitting).
• Do not operate with safety discrepancies (in-op lights, worn tires…).
• No doubling-up without S3 approval.
• Hard-surface only unless duty-related; damages = airman liability.
• Speed limits: normal posted; emergency ≤ ext{limit}+10 ext{mph}; off-road ≤ 25 ext{mph}.
• Mandatory seatbelts; no “behind back” routing.
• Perform FOD checks before flight-line; use spotter when backing.
• Lights: emergency lights/sirens only when mission essential; siren = real Code responses only.
• Cell-phone use while driving prohibited; stop first.
• Lockouts: notify VNCO—do NOT damage vehicle.

1.3 MRZR / Polaris Ranger

• Only ROHVA-certified operators; complete General Purpose/UTV checklist at changeover.
• Flight Ops have priority.
• May NOT be driven off-installation.

1.4 Guardmount

• Formal military formation; NLT 30 min pre-shift (Early guardmount for early posts).
• Used for roll call, announcements, weapons/equipment inspection, training, post assignment, appearance/fitness checks.

1.5 Post Checks, Visits, Reporting

• Post Briefing required to any FC/FS, IG, WIT, or CoC E-7+ visitor (highest rank present).
• No briefing during emergencies or to persons in vehicles.
• Post checks: leadership ensures alertness, knowledge, equipment; must be blottered.
• Post visits: morale/welfare; blottered.

1.6 Post Changeover & Inspections

• Thorough inspection of area, cleanliness, equipment, serviceability using laminated checklist.
• Report discrepancies to BDOC & FC/FS; document (blotter-back, 1800, AF IMT 1168, email S3/S4/S5).
• On-duty member assumes full responsibility once previous shift departs.

1.7 Installation Entry Controller (IEC) Duties

• First line of defense/image; maintain professional appearance & tact.
• Monitor traffic, verify credentials w/ DBIDS, wear portable duress, issue passes when VCC closed.
• Entry denial → AF Form 3907 + BDOC blotter; foreign national → Creech Form 2.
• 100 % scan of every person; Trusted Traveler NOT authorized.
• Acceptable IDs include federal/state/tribal LE creds plus list in Attachment 1.
• Drivers license or RAB alone NEVER valid for entry.
• Visitor passes via VCC / IEC (non-duty hours).
