Aviation Security by Cathleen A. Berrick Pdf

The U.S. Federal Air Marshal Service (FAMS) has undergone a number of changes in recent years, including a 2003 transfer from the Transportation Security Admin. (TSA) to the U.S. Immigration & Customs Enforcement Bureau (ICE), & a 2005 transfer from ICE back to TSA. A key aspect of federal air marshals' operating procedures is the discreet movement through airports as they check in for their flight, transit screening checkpoints, & board the aircraft. This report discusses FAMS's: (1) transfer to ICE & key practices that could facilitate its return to TSA; & (2) management of mission-related incidents that affect air marshals' ability to operate discreetly. Includes recommendations.

This report looked at operational and mgmt. control issues that emerged during the rapid expansion of the Service, specifically addressing its: background check procedures and training; mgmt. and info., policies, and proced.; and challenges from its merger.

Aviation Security by Stephen M. Lord Pdf

By deploying armed air marshals onboard selected flights, the Fed. Air Marshal Service (FAMS), plays a key role in helping to protect 29,000 domestic and international flights operated daily by U.S. air carriers. This report examines: (1) FAMS's operational approach or "concept of operations" for covering flights; (2) to what extent this operational approach has been independently evaluated; and (3) the processes and initiatives FAMS established to address workforce-related issues. This report analyzed documented policies and procedures regarding FAMS's operational approach and a July 2006 classified report based on an independent evaluation of that approach. This report is the public version of a restricted report issued in Dec. 2008. Illus.

Aviation Security by United States. Government Accountability Office Pdf

By deploying armed air marshals onboard selected flights, the Federal Air Marshal Service (FAMS), a component of the Transportation Security Administration (TSA), plays a key role in helping to protect approximately 29,000 domestic and international flights operated daily by U.S. air carriers. The Government Accountably Office (GAO) was asked to examine (1) FAMS's operational approach or "concept of operations" for covering flights, (2) to what extent this operational approach has been independently evaluated, and (3) the processes and initiatives FAMS established to address workforce-related issues. GAO analyzed documented policies and procedures regarding FAMS's operational approach and a July 2006 classified report based on an independent evaluation of that approach. Also, GAO analyzed employee working group reports and other documentation of FAMS's processes and initiatives for addressing workforce-related issues, and interviewed the FAMS Director, other senior officials, and 67 air marshals (selected to reflect a range in levels of experience). This report is the public version of a restricted report (GAO-09-53SU) issued in December 2008.--Highlights.

Beyond the Water's Edge by Kathleen H. Hicks,Louis Lauter,Colin McElhinny Pdf

This report assesses domestic political support for internationalist foreign policy by analyzing the motivations of members of Congress on key foreign policy issues. It includes case studies on major foreign policy debates in recent years, including the use of force, foreign aid, trade policy and U.S.-Russia relations. It also develops a new series of archetypes for describing the foreign policy worldviews of members of the 115th Congress to replace the current stale and unsophisticated labels of internationalist, isolationist, hawk and dove. Report findings emphasize areas of bipartisan cooperation on foreign policy issues given member ideologies.
