equipment such as a riot baton, military police (MP) club, and mace. You may
have been authorized to use crowd control materials such as a water hose or
chemical gas.

Performance Steps

           b.  Physical without weapons (touching,
pushing).

           c.  Physical with weapons (rocks, clubs,
spitting).

           d.  Physical with firearms shown.

           e.  Physical with firearms used.

   2.  Report the situation immediately to the

   3.  Isolate hostile civilian(s), if possible.

   4.  Employ no more force than is necessary to
control the situation using graduated response measures.

           a.  Avoid confrontation if possible. Do not
deliberately instigate, threaten, provoke, or bluff.

           b.  Speak sternly to the civilian and state
the peaceful intent of your mission.

           c.  Tell the civilian to "STAND BACK" and
warn him that you may have to use force.

           d.  If the civilian places his hands on your
body, use your riot baton or MP club to brush back the civilian.

           e.  If the civilian attempts to inflict
bodily harm, use any authorized materials (e.g., water hoses, chemical
gases) to impede his movement.

            f.  Use your individual weapon in
self-defense only and fire to wound or disable if possible.

   5.  Establish and maintain control of the situation.

           a.  Comply with the rules of engagement
(ROE)/rules of interaction (ROI), any host-nation requirements, applicable
international treaties and operational agreements.

authorities based on the political and tactical situations and the level of
threat. ROI encompasses an array of interpersonal communication skills, such
as persuasion and negotiation. ROI are based on the applicable ROE for a
particular operation. Everyone must understand the ROE and be prepared to
execute them properly in every possible confrontation.

           b.  Minimize casualties and damage.

           c.  Maintain professional demeanor and
