SECRET SERVICE HANDBOOK


■▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬■

GENERAL INFORMATION
The United States Secret Service is tasked with the primary protection of the President, Vice President, and all other peoples who the President or Vice President wish to be protected.
The United States Secret Service is also tasked with keeping areas safe and doing so through the Uniformed Division.  The Uniformed Division (UD) consist of Counter Assault Team (CAT) and Emergency Response Team (ERT).  While as these UD agents are not assigned to a specific task, they default to the primary protection along with Probationary Agents, Senior Agents, and Special Agents.
There are three major divisions of the Secret Service. We have the Presidential Protection Detail (PPD), Vice Presidential Protection Detail (VPPD), and the Uniformed Division (UD). As these are our major divisions, we will have a Special Agent in Charge for each of them.

Perimeter 1-1: All non-security agents must be scanned for weapons before being allowed near a VIP
Communication 1-1: All Agents are required to use team radio when communicating between agents
Threat 1-1: Threats while a VIP is in server should be taken seriously. Depending on the Threat appropriate action should be taken.
Code Green or C1 displays a VIP is not at potential risk of being physically harmed by an assassin or criminal. It could also display no current threats or criminal activity is occurring while a VIP is in the server.
Code Yellow or C2 displays a VIP could potentially be harmed by an assassin or criminal. It could also display multiple crime reports or threats in the server towards the VIP.
