1
00:00:05.640 --> 00:00:32.920
I'm. My name is Terry

2
00:00:32.920 --> 00:00:35.960
Shepherd and I will be your guide
 into the world of close quarter battle.

3
00:00:36.280 --> 00:00:37.080
I'm a current U.S. 

4
00:00:37.080 --> 00:00:40.240
Army Green Beret, and I have fought
 in two armed conflicts in the Middle East.

5
00:00:40.600 --> 00:00:44.320
Together, we'll explore how elite soldiers
 and police units use these specific

6
00:00:44.320 --> 00:00:47.720
techniques to defeat their enemies
 at very close range.

7
00:00:48.160 --> 00:00:50.800
The term close quarter
 battle is used to describe scenarios

8
00:00:50.800 --> 00:00:54.360
that police and military face
 in both urban and rural environments.

9
00:00:54.680 --> 00:00:57.520
Although the origin of close quartered
 battle goes back to sword fighting

10
00:00:57.520 --> 00:01:01.160
and hand-to-hand combat today, it's
 used primarily to describe the techniques

11
00:01:01.680 --> 00:01:05.800
when small teams are confronting an enemy
 inside a building or within a compound.

12
00:01:06.320 --> 00:01:11.120
Stairwells, hallways and rooms always pose
 dangerous and unknown variables

13
00:01:12.240 --> 00:01:16.800
from basic muzzle awareness, weapons
 transitions to silent team communication.

14
00:01:17.040 --> 00:01:20.080
All police and military units
 need to be expert in the techniques

15
00:01:20.320 --> 00:01:21.440
of close quarters battle.

16
00:01:22.720 --> 00:01:24.120
In today's episode, 

17
00:01:24.120 --> 00:01:27.480
we will learn how the key to gaining
 the element of surprise in any close

18
00:01:27.480 --> 00:01:31.480
quarter battle situation is getting
 accurate information about your target.

19
00:01:32.680 --> 00:01:35.960
We will also take a look at the concept
 of breaching through dynamic entry.

20
00:01:36.600 --> 00:01:39.160
This is the term that military
 and police use to describe

21
00:01:39.360 --> 00:01:42.880
entering a building or room
 using shotguns and explosive shape charges

22
00:01:43.240 --> 00:01:47.440
to blow down a barricaded door
 or wall to gain elements of surprise,

23
00:01:47.680 --> 00:01:49.720
speed and violence of action.

24
00:01:53.280 --> 00:01:56.360
I will give you an historical overview
 of the formation of police

25
00:01:56.360 --> 00:02:00.320
rapid response units and their use
 of military concepts and tactics.

26
00:02:06.760 --> 00:02:10.120
We will see inside the head
 of a rapid response unit team member

27
00:02:10.320 --> 00:02:14.600
and feel how maintaining surprise,
 speed and violence of action

28
00:02:14.600 --> 00:02:15.280
in the fourth quarter 

29
00:02:15.280 --> 00:02:19.360
battle through weapons awareness,
 field of fire and coordinated team

30
00:02:19.360 --> 00:02:23.560
communication and movement is the key to a
 successful Scooby operation.

31
00:02:26.080 --> 00:02:27.840
Finally, I will be on a live fire 

32
00:02:27.840 --> 00:02:32.080
demonstration, what's called a kill house
 with a police rapid response unit.

33
00:02:32.320 --> 00:02:36.360
As we move through working room by room
 to overwhelm the space

34
00:02:36.520 --> 00:02:39.400
and take out any threats. 

35
00:02:42.560 --> 00:02:44.200
The formation of a SWAT team in L.A. 

36
00:02:44.200 --> 00:02:45.200
County really marked 

37
00:02:45.200 --> 00:02:48.880
the development of tactical response
 units all across the United States.

38
00:02:49.000 --> 00:02:52.760
SWAT in L.A. really kind of
 took a blending of military concepts

39
00:02:52.760 --> 00:02:56.480
and law enforcement concepts and made them
 very effective for where they are.

40
00:02:56.480 --> 00:02:58.480
L.A. is a dangerous place. 

41
00:02:58.480 --> 00:03:00.120
Something I admire about those guys 

42
00:03:00.120 --> 00:03:02.440
is that not only do
 they have to get in the target

43
00:03:02.520 --> 00:03:06.160
and successfully take care of business
 there, they're surrounded by a civilian

44
00:03:06.160 --> 00:03:09.880
population, not all of them friendly,
 but definitely all of them cannot be hurt.

45
00:03:10.520 --> 00:03:12.520
So they're able to surgically
 complete a mission.

46
00:03:12.920 --> 00:03:15.080
It's difficult at
 best and dangerous at worst.

47
00:03:29.760 --> 00:03:32.960
The history of elite police close quarter
 battle techniques starts

48
00:03:33.120 --> 00:03:36.840
by looking at how police faced challenges
 like riots and civil unrest

49
00:03:37.200 --> 00:03:40.240
and then began adopting military style
 tactics and weapons.

50
00:03:41.040 --> 00:03:44.400
In the 1970s, elite
 military units influenced

51
00:03:44.400 --> 00:03:47.440
police units in Northern California,
 which resulted in L.A.

52
00:03:47.440 --> 00:03:49.720
County forming the first SWAT teams

53
00:03:50.640 --> 00:03:54.480
as international criminal organizations
 and terrorists became more sophisticated.

54
00:03:54.960 --> 00:03:59.200
Police organizations all over the world
 had to adopt more of these military

55
00:03:59.320 --> 00:04:02.680
close quarter battle techniques. 

56
00:04:50.760 --> 00:04:54.640
One of the most important things
 a SWAT team absolutely has to do is

57
00:04:54.640 --> 00:05:00.480
get dynamic entry, whether it's a shotgun
 blast, a charge or a battering ram.

58
00:05:01.080 --> 00:05:04.760
It's vitally important that those guys
 get inside quickly and aggressively.

59
00:05:05.400 --> 00:05:09.080
So whether it's a military unit or some
 police force around the United States,

60
00:05:09.640 --> 00:05:12.240
surprise, speed and violence

61
00:05:12.240 --> 00:05:15.440
of action, principles of secrecy
 that will win the day for them.

62
00:05:16.960 --> 00:05:18.920
When preparing to
 enter a suspected drug dealer's 

63
00:05:18.920 --> 00:05:22.160
apartment, there are various
 methods of entry available to them.

64
00:05:22.760 --> 00:05:26.880
The three primary methods of dynamic
 breaching are one shotgun,

65
00:05:27.360 --> 00:05:31.000
using specialized shotgun rounds to attack
 either the lock or the hinges.

66
00:05:35.040 --> 00:05:39.160
Using carefully placed and measured
 explosives to defeat the lock hinges

67
00:05:39.160 --> 00:05:44.960
or even cave in the door
 itself. And three.

68
00:05:45.680 --> 00:05:48.760
Swinging a battering ram
 to hit near the lock assembly of the door,

69
00:05:48.800 --> 00:05:50.800
shattering the lock
 and pushing the door open.

70
00:05:53.560 --> 00:05:57.600
It was 911 that really highlighted
 just how vulnerable we are.

71
00:05:58.000 --> 00:06:01.480
Even the smallest police department
 has its own tactical response unit

72
00:06:01.720 --> 00:06:03.760
as well as our national assets. 

73
00:06:03.760 --> 00:06:06.680
All of them have to be able to deal
 with chemical attacks,

74
00:06:07.440 --> 00:06:11.400
biological attacks, nuclear attacks
 and, of course, shootings and explosives.

75
00:06:11.680 --> 00:06:14.560
All of these assets from local
 all the way to national

76
00:06:14.680 --> 00:06:17.600
are in communication
 and mutually benefit from training.

77
00:06:18.000 --> 00:06:20.360
But all of them have one thing in common. 

78
00:06:20.360 --> 00:06:21.160
Every one of them, 

79
00:06:21.160 --> 00:06:25.600
in order to be effective and protect
 the population, has to be good at QB.

80
00:07:12.160 --> 00:07:12.920
Now let's take a look at 

81
00:07:12.920 --> 00:07:15.760
information and intelligence gathering
 and their different means.

82
00:07:16.120 --> 00:07:19.080
First and foremost is human
 based intel gathering,

83
00:07:19.400 --> 00:07:22.520
where operatives are officers
 are undercover in civilian clothes,

84
00:07:22.960 --> 00:07:26.560
observing the target area or personality
 and reporting back to command.

85
00:07:26.720 --> 00:07:29.080
Another form of surveillance
 in modern close quarters.

86
00:07:29.080 --> 00:07:32.640
Battle is technically assisted,
 where unmanned aerial vehicles,

87
00:07:32.920 --> 00:07:37.720
closed circuit cameras, GPS tracking
 and audio bugging equipment is utilized

88
00:07:37.800 --> 00:07:41.040
to design a clear plan of assault on the
 could be target.

89
00:07:43.080 --> 00:07:45.600
Because of the nature of of where we are
 and who we're talking

90
00:07:45.600 --> 00:07:48.920
to, I can't tell you his name
 and I can't let you get a look at him.

91
00:07:48.920 --> 00:07:49.920
But I'm really excited 

92
00:07:49.920 --> 00:07:53.760
because I'm going to get a tour inside
 one of their tactical surveillance vans.

93
00:07:53.800 --> 00:07:56.640
Give me a little tour about what you guys
 have here and the capabilities of this.

94
00:07:57.400 --> 00:08:01.520
So just now, we all move
 mobile communication and operations group,

95
00:08:03.160 --> 00:08:05.760
which is for leading of 

96
00:08:05.760 --> 00:08:09.120
operations, not able to communicate
 to all the different levels.

97
00:08:09.800 --> 00:08:14.560
The Marine Corps, crucially, we all come
 on staff or before we go for negotiation,

98
00:08:15.640 --> 00:08:18.640
we for communication launches.

99
00:08:20.040 --> 00:08:21.760
Now, how many guys normally would 

100
00:08:21.760 --> 00:08:24.600
you have in this van
 for for operation. Operation.

101
00:08:25.280 --> 00:08:27.920
So you try to score. And usually

102
00:08:28.000 --> 00:08:31.680
we have a negotiation technique,
 Google, bamboo and buffalo parking.

103
00:08:32.200 --> 00:08:35.200
I think also people think
 that surveillance is this kind of cool,

104
00:08:35.240 --> 00:08:37.360
glamorous job. It's
 a lot of hard work, isn't it?

105
00:08:37.800 --> 00:08:41.320
We are not going to do
 a global, long, slow

106
00:08:42.280 --> 00:08:44.400
forest training called recall.

107
00:08:44.600 --> 00:08:46.600
You have to you have to go
 to the bathroom. 

108
00:08:46.600 --> 00:08:49.800
Actually, let me see this, man. Awesome. 

109
00:08:49.800 --> 00:08:52.600
Coming up, I'm going to observe some kill
 house flow drills.

110
00:08:53.520 --> 00:08:54.360
I'm going to take a look 

111
00:08:54.360 --> 00:08:57.160
at the plate and load
 bearing vest of an elite police operator.

112
00:08:57.640 --> 00:09:02.320
Then I go downrange with the agent KMP
 five nine millimeter submachine gun.

113
00:09:08.640 --> 00:09:12.960
Today we are looking at police rapid
 response tactics for close quarter battle

114
00:09:13.040 --> 00:09:16.880
and how surveillance weapons
 training at gaining dynamic entry

115
00:09:16.880 --> 00:09:21.280
all allow control of surprise,
 speed and violence of action.

116
00:09:21.520 --> 00:09:23.320
A kill house is a live fire training 

117
00:09:23.320 --> 00:09:26.720
area used by police and military
 to do what's called flow drills.

118
00:09:27.280 --> 00:09:30.440
The area is usually built out of tires
 or rubber padded walls

119
00:09:30.720 --> 00:09:32.040
that ensure stray bullets 

120
00:09:32.040 --> 00:09:36.080
do not ricochet back into the officers
 as they move to clear rooms and practice.

121
00:09:36.080 --> 00:09:39.560
Cubby C could be is extremely dangerous.

122
00:09:39.760 --> 00:09:43.120
That's actually pretty dangerous to train
 if you want to train it to a high level.

123
00:09:43.560 --> 00:09:47.440
What we're doing today is working
 as a team, what we call flow drills, going

124
00:09:47.440 --> 00:09:51.880
through the target and taking it down,
 but without ammo or explosives yet.

125
00:10:05.920 --> 00:10:06.760
The idea behind a 

126
00:10:06.760 --> 00:10:10.080
kill house came from the military
 and police, understanding

127
00:10:10.240 --> 00:10:13.080
that in real world hostage
 or building assault situations,

128
00:10:13.360 --> 00:10:15.800
there is a need for operators
 to feel comfortable

129
00:10:16.200 --> 00:10:19.600
in close quarters battles with weapons
 firing and explosives

130
00:10:19.600 --> 00:10:34.160
detonating right next to them
 and all around them. Payback back.

131
00:10:39.880 --> 00:10:44.120
So that was great watching those guys
 flow, very deliberate flow.

132
00:10:44.400 --> 00:10:47.320
Something I don't usually see
 in my line of work in the military is

133
00:10:47.560 --> 00:10:50.160
they had a guy with a big heavy
 shield up front the whole time.

134
00:10:50.520 --> 00:10:52.320
It makes a lot of sense
 if you can have that 

135
00:10:52.320 --> 00:10:55.000
and you know, you've got bad guys in here
 that are going to try to kill you.

136
00:10:55.040 --> 00:10:56.640
A lot of it's the same kind of stuff. 

137
00:10:56.640 --> 00:10:59.920
Same principles want
 to aggressively move forward.

138
00:10:59.920 --> 00:11:00.960
They have to hold on a door. 

139
00:11:00.960 --> 00:11:03.840
They used flashbangs
 when they lost their momentum.

140
00:11:04.840 --> 00:11:06.280
It's going to be great. 

141
00:11:07.000 --> 00:11:10.280
Okay. So I'm in an undisclosed location
 in the Czech Republic at the

142
00:11:10.440 --> 00:11:15.440
we're not training compound or not stands
 for draw replay of last season.

143
00:11:15.640 --> 00:11:18.080
This is the national police
 force of the Czech government.

144
00:11:18.080 --> 00:11:19.520
This is pretty much the most elite 

145
00:11:19.520 --> 00:11:23.200
unit for dealing with terrorist activity
 and pretty much a lot of other missions.

146
00:11:23.560 --> 00:11:25.640
And with one of their
 best weapons instructors, 

147
00:11:25.640 --> 00:11:27.960
you've got a few of them here.
 So what's this first one? 

148
00:11:27.960 --> 00:11:31.600
This is a 25 room conversion. 

149
00:11:33.160 --> 00:11:35.360
Yeah. This is a this is a shorter barrel.

150
00:11:35.920 --> 00:11:39.320
Okay. And we know some people don't know
 it shoots nine millimeter.

151
00:11:40.880 --> 00:11:43.520
And yeah, this is a
 this is a shorter barrel.

152
00:11:43.520 --> 00:11:45.920
So is the accuracy
 going to go down on this a little bit?

153
00:11:46.240 --> 00:11:48.960
Uh, not so much. Probably not so much.

154
00:11:49.000 --> 00:11:50.440
So this is perfect for close in work.

155
00:11:51.480 --> 00:11:53.080
And I'm a lefty, so I get to eat 

156
00:11:53.080 --> 00:11:55.880
all the gas that comes flying out here,
 which is pretty, pretty cool.

157
00:11:55.960 --> 00:12:00.920
This got a selector switch for single
 three round burst and full auto.

158
00:12:01.520 --> 00:12:03.680
So you have a lot of different options 

159
00:12:03.680 --> 00:12:06.720
and we have no optics on this,
 but these are very easy to control.

160
00:12:06.720 --> 00:12:08.560
I haven't shot an MP five in a long time 

161
00:12:08.560 --> 00:12:12.240
for quite some time, but I know that
 they're pretty easy to control.

162
00:12:12.440 --> 00:12:15.880
Pull them in nine millimeter, boom.

163
00:12:47.360 --> 00:12:49.320
All right. So, of course, the minute 

164
00:12:49.320 --> 00:12:52.280
anybody like me gets in,
 gets in the same room with a piece of kit,

165
00:12:52.280 --> 00:12:56.160
we've got to try it
 on, see if we like it so it feels right.

166
00:12:56.160 --> 00:12:59.640
That's about the right heft. It's got
 the protective plates in the soft armor,

167
00:13:02.680 --> 00:13:06.360
lots of Velcro to get in and out quickly. 

168
00:13:08.280 --> 00:13:10.160
This is a very familiar feeling. 

169
00:13:10.160 --> 00:13:14.360
Getting kitted up,
 locking it down, and I'm ready to go.

170
00:13:14.520 --> 00:13:16.760
There's a few things
 you can see here immediately. 

171
00:13:16.760 --> 00:13:18.120
This is a right handed shooter. 

172
00:13:18.120 --> 00:13:21.120
This holster is here for quick access.
 You can draw it and shoot.

173
00:13:21.240 --> 00:13:22.160
I'm left handed. 

174
00:13:22.160 --> 00:13:25.160
Mine would be over
 here. He's got his radio.

175
00:13:25.200 --> 00:13:27.680
He's got various magazine pouches. 

176
00:13:27.680 --> 00:13:30.000
You'll see here a metal cable. 

177
00:13:30.000 --> 00:13:33.240
Very important, because this is actually
 a breakaway piece of body armor.

178
00:13:34.160 --> 00:13:37.360
If I need to get out of this quickly,
 for example, my vehicle gets

179
00:13:37.360 --> 00:13:40.440
pushed in the water and I'm drowning.
 I need to get out of this quickly.

180
00:13:40.680 --> 00:13:42.680
I can pull a handle and it breaks away. 

181
00:13:42.680 --> 00:13:46.480
Also, in the event that I am wounded,
 my comrades can get to me a lot quicker.

182
00:13:46.560 --> 00:13:48.720
Key thing about any kind of kit. 

183
00:13:48.720 --> 00:13:52.120
The operators got to know where
 everything is instinctively.

184
00:13:52.120 --> 00:13:53.880
So before you take this into combat, 

185
00:13:53.880 --> 00:13:57.680
you need to train with it
 over and over and over again.

186
00:13:58.960 --> 00:14:01.560
Coming up, we go
 inside the head of an L.A.

187
00:14:01.560 --> 00:14:04.400
County SWAT team member
 as they take down a drug lab.

188
00:14:04.880 --> 00:14:07.520
Then we take a look at the MP five
 and the shotgun.

189
00:14:13.040 --> 00:14:15.920
In today's episode
 we are looking at police rapid response

190
00:14:15.920 --> 00:14:20.120
unit, close quarter battle tactics
 and how surprise, speed

191
00:14:20.320 --> 00:14:23.680
and violence of action are maintained
 by strict weapon control

192
00:14:23.920 --> 00:14:26.120
team movement and dynamic entry.

193
00:14:26.800 --> 00:14:30.600
Jumping into the head of a rapid response
 unit member while training a kill house

194
00:14:30.880 --> 00:14:33.680
gives you an idea
 of how operators do flow drills

195
00:14:33.960 --> 00:14:36.720
and gain awareness of a team movement
 and weapon control.

196
00:14:37.120 --> 00:14:40.680
Assault teams will train in the Kill House
 over and over to ensure that all

197
00:14:40.680 --> 00:14:43.840
these elements are under their control
 in a real world scenario

198
00:14:45.760 --> 00:14:49.760
and they operate with confidence and
 keep themselves and their teammates alive.

199
00:14:50.680 --> 00:14:53.080
When a team moves toward a target,
 they must commit

200
00:14:53.080 --> 00:14:55.560
to all the three principles
 of close quarters battle

201
00:14:56.400 --> 00:14:59.200
by moving with stealth through various
 cover and hidden positions.

202
00:14:59.640 --> 00:15:03.200
They maintain the element of surprise
 with a constant pace information.

203
00:15:03.480 --> 00:15:05.120
They maintain the element of speed. 

204
00:15:05.120 --> 00:15:06.480
And finally, with a sudden 

205
00:15:06.480 --> 00:15:09.720
coordinated attack, they commit
 to the violence of action required

206
00:15:09.800 --> 00:15:12.560
to dominate the assault. 

207
00:15:18.200 --> 00:15:21.320
With helmet and gun cameras
 attached to this rapid response team.

208
00:15:21.600 --> 00:15:25.160
We get to feel how it feels to be making
 a fraction of second decisions

209
00:15:25.160 --> 00:15:28.280
that keep you, your team and any civilians

210
00:15:28.280 --> 00:15:31.360
in the area alive
 when moving toward a target.

211
00:15:31.720 --> 00:15:34.520
Team members hold the weapons
 with a muzzle pointed in the direction

212
00:15:34.520 --> 00:15:37.760
of travel and slightly down
 to allow for unobstructed vision.

213
00:15:38.280 --> 00:15:41.880
Also, the muzzle is always oriented
 to where the soldier is looking.

214
00:15:47.000 --> 00:15:50.000
Actions outside the point
 of entry must be quick and well-rehearsed

215
00:15:50.000 --> 00:15:53.200
because the doorway or breach point
 is always a dangerous position.

216
00:16:00.480 --> 00:16:03.320
Why did you want this? The better.

217
00:16:04.400 --> 00:16:06.680
Come on, buddy. Get out

218
00:16:08.000 --> 00:16:14.480
of my life. This.

219
00:16:21.680 --> 00:16:24.080
Now a back on the range,
 doing some test shooting

220
00:16:24.080 --> 00:16:27.680
and getting the lowdown on this
 anti-terror unit's use of the MP five.

221
00:16:28.360 --> 00:16:29.960
Then we're going to shoot it. 

222
00:16:29.960 --> 00:16:31.040
This is my personal. 

223
00:16:31.040 --> 00:16:33.720
And before we talk. Yeah.

224
00:16:34.920 --> 00:16:36.040
Is this your weapon? 

225
00:16:36.040 --> 00:16:37.120
This is yours. All right. 

226
00:16:37.120 --> 00:16:39.600
Thank you for. Thank you for
 bringing it out for show and tell, man.

227
00:16:40.800 --> 00:16:46.000
You'll do so from the laser and the light.

228
00:16:46.760 --> 00:16:49.400
I see that you feel it nicely. 

229
00:16:49.400 --> 00:16:52.360
Yeah, yeah, yeah.

230
00:16:52.920 --> 00:16:56.680
It's nice. It's good. Come in. Boom.

231
00:16:58.840 --> 00:17:01.200
Yeah. Dead on. Yeah. Plus

232
00:17:02.560 --> 00:17:05.680
the MP five or the
 chamber, four nine millimeters.

233
00:17:05.680 --> 00:17:08.120
So it's it's a very easy round to control.

234
00:17:08.680 --> 00:17:11.080
And also for you
 guys, it's not so much penetration.

235
00:17:11.320 --> 00:17:15.360
But what is preferred in
 the city is when we digging

236
00:17:15.360 --> 00:17:18.760
somebody from streets,
 we have to to know the people.

237
00:17:18.840 --> 00:17:19.880
Well, you guys have to 

238
00:17:19.880 --> 00:17:22.360
you know, you guys are always,
 you know, as as police officers,

239
00:17:22.360 --> 00:17:25.080
you guys are always worried
 about civilians in and around the area.

240
00:17:25.080 --> 00:17:28.360
And if you don't want a bullet weapon
 through something.

241
00:17:28.360 --> 00:17:30.440
Yeah, I got it. All right,
 so now we've got

242
00:17:32.440 --> 00:17:34.520
we've got our shotgun little. 

243
00:17:34.520 --> 00:17:36.280
Yeah. Benelli wheels. 

244
00:17:36.280 --> 00:17:38.160
You poor Andrew. 

245
00:17:38.160 --> 00:17:40.440
You guys use that to breach doors 

246
00:17:40.440 --> 00:17:43.360
to shoot who shoot
 or from parents or roots.

247
00:17:43.640 --> 00:17:46.880
What do you do when you walk? Okay.

248
00:17:47.520 --> 00:17:50.400
But it also that could also go to
 like a semi mode, too, right?

249
00:17:51.360 --> 00:17:52.280
So you can switch. 

250
00:17:52.280 --> 00:17:56.480
It can be so remote
 and then it will cycle for you. Right.

251
00:17:56.680 --> 00:17:58.800
Or do you got it. 

252
00:17:58.800 --> 00:17:59.560
Yeah. When you're doing 

253
00:17:59.560 --> 00:18:02.200
when you're doing breaching,
 you want to have it on manual always.

254
00:18:03.560 --> 00:18:06.320
So I think it's time to shoot them. 

255
00:18:26.520 --> 00:18:27.960
Coming up, I'm going to jump 

256
00:18:27.960 --> 00:18:30.760
into the kill house
 flow drills and test my skills out.

257
00:18:30.960 --> 00:18:33.800
Then we'll revisit our real world
 rapid response scenarios

258
00:18:34.120 --> 00:18:37.560
with a better understanding
 of what's involved in a high stakes life

259
00:18:37.560 --> 00:18:39.600
or death close quarter battle situation.

260
00:18:46.120 --> 00:18:50.000
Today we're training some of the basic
 police could be tactics from kill house,

261
00:18:50.000 --> 00:18:53.600
live fire drills, weapons
 training and dynamic entry.

262
00:18:54.240 --> 00:18:57.760
So I've had a chance to watch these guys
 flow and it's pretty much the same way

263
00:18:57.760 --> 00:19:00.400
we do things to.
 The principles are awfully close.

264
00:19:00.960 --> 00:19:02.800
So I'm a plug myself into the stack. 

265
00:19:02.800 --> 00:19:05.120
In this case, I'm
 going to start in the back. 

266
00:19:05.120 --> 00:19:08.200
But once we get in there and start
 moving through and problems present

267
00:19:08.200 --> 00:19:10.400
and we go in different
 directions, it'll change.

268
00:19:10.400 --> 00:19:11.280
There's going to be a lot of fun.

269
00:19:14.760 --> 00:19:16.960
My job now is to cover Rear Security
 until we get in.

270
00:19:34.840 --> 00:19:37.960
Breaching techniques vary widely
 based on the type of construction

271
00:19:37.960 --> 00:19:41.400
encountered and the types of explosives
 available to the breaching force.

272
00:19:49.840 --> 00:19:52.800
What we see here is a shape charge,
 which is basically four pieces

273
00:19:52.800 --> 00:19:56.200
of wood connected with explosives
 on the side facing the door.

274
00:19:56.840 --> 00:20:00.400
Then a long detonation cord is attached
 so that the team can be a safe distance

275
00:20:00.400 --> 00:20:02.760
away from the explosion. 

276
00:20:20.240 --> 00:20:37.120
You know. Once inside the Hill house,
 all my CPB training comes back to me

277
00:20:37.120 --> 00:20:41.160
and I fall into my position in the stack,
 starting out as the last man.

278
00:20:41.480 --> 00:20:45.040
I'm responsible for Rear Security,
 but as we move through, my position

279
00:20:45.040 --> 00:20:47.160
changes and I have to commit to room

280
00:20:47.160 --> 00:20:49.520
clearing and door security
 with the rest of the guys.

281
00:20:50.360 --> 00:20:52.680
As rooms get cleared and flashbangs fly,

282
00:20:52.920 --> 00:20:56.040
everyone has to maintain
 as much silent communication as possible.

283
00:21:10.520 --> 00:21:36.400
Let's be clear. Every time.

284
00:21:59.560 --> 00:22:01.320
What's up, guys? 

285
00:22:01.400 --> 00:22:05.840
Paul Lewis. Finally,
 the entire Kewl House is quiet.

286
00:22:06.040 --> 00:22:07.600
As all of us start to replay 

287
00:22:07.600 --> 00:22:10.800
how the assault unfolded
 and how accurate our shots were.

288
00:22:11.920 --> 00:22:14.720
Welcome to the Czech Republic. 

289
00:22:17.520 --> 00:22:20.920
In this episode, we were looking at police
 rapid response tactics

290
00:22:21.800 --> 00:22:23.920
as we revisit our real world scenarios.

291
00:22:24.160 --> 00:22:28.080
We can now better appreciate
 how important gaining dynamic entry,

292
00:22:28.360 --> 00:22:32.720
strict weapon control and team movement
 are to the three main rules of CQ.

293
00:22:32.720 --> 00:22:36.760
Be Surprise, speed and violence of action.

294
00:22:37.160 --> 00:22:38.520
The entire team enters the room 

295
00:22:38.520 --> 00:22:41.160
quickly and smoothly
 and clears the doorway immediately

296
00:22:41.840 --> 00:22:44.760
because the door is always the focal point
 for anyone inside the room.

297
00:22:45.200 --> 00:22:49.160
Focusing attention here is crucial
 for a successful Scooby operation.

298
00:22:49.680 --> 00:22:52.440
First policy. The.

299
00:22:58.240 --> 00:23:18.440
Oh. Full time, full term.

300
00:23:19.160 --> 00:23:20.440
Look, I did that. 

301
00:23:21.800 --> 00:23:24.080
In the case of countering
 terrorist attacks, 

302
00:23:24.080 --> 00:23:27.200
all rapid response
 team members must move as one unit

303
00:23:27.520 --> 00:23:30.480
and know exactly what the responsibility
 within their team is.

304
00:23:31.280 --> 00:23:34.840
Repeated and realistic
 training enables teams to move forward

305
00:23:34.840 --> 00:23:38.520
with speed and with primary concern
 for the safety of their team members

306
00:23:38.800 --> 00:23:44.120
and any potential civilian casualties
 or hostages. Depending.

307
00:23:59.040 --> 00:24:02.160
Once the target has been located,
 bystanders, civilians

308
00:24:02.160 --> 00:24:17.040
are separated from the hostages
 and targets. Somebody. Oh.

309
00:24:29.240 --> 00:24:31.840
The actual event of violence, of action

310
00:24:32.120 --> 00:24:35.640
can be over in a matter of seconds. 

311
00:24:46.720 --> 00:24:48.040
In today's episode, 

312
00:24:48.040 --> 00:24:50.800
we learned about the creation
 of rapid response in urban

313
00:24:50.800 --> 00:24:54.240
police units and how they need
 to be experts in military style.

314
00:24:54.240 --> 00:24:56.160
Close quarter battle and weaponry.

315
00:25:03.840 --> 00:25:07.240
We also learn how training with submachine
 guns and real explosives

316
00:25:07.240 --> 00:25:11.520
inside a live fire kill house allows rapid
 response teams to stay in control

317
00:25:11.520 --> 00:25:17.280
of all three principles of CQ Beat
 Surprise, speed and violence of action.
