The aim of this course is to introduce special operation teams to tried and proven tactics currently being employed to rescue hostages or to serve an arrest/search warrant. After an initial close quarter tactical shooting session involving the pistol and carbine, the focus will switch to team compatibility drills such as dynamic structure clearing for hostage rescue situations followed by skills typically reserved for barricade and warrant service missions (systematic safety clearance, breach and hold, use of canines and robots, etc.)
