The contents of this book are drawn from my experiences in the close protection, security and investigations industry over the last 35 years. What I am providing here is the real-world perspective, not the classroom or the perfect world perspective. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eI have always questioned what I have been taught, which has got me into plenty of arguments over the years. But without questioning things, how can they be improved and refined. I have been very lucky because I have been able to work on many diverse taskings, in many diverse places, and have been able to see what strategies and tactics actually work in the close protection business, and what does not! \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eI tell my student's and people to question everything, especially in today's world where fake news and social media outlets are all pushing their agendas and selling products. In the real-world, away from the tacticool entertainment world, you need to know what works and what does not, as your life and the lives of others can depend on it. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eMany people's view of a close protection operative is a big martial arts expert. This stereotype is a widely held misconception. The real professional in the close protection industry is someone who identifies and prevents any situations that could be potentially dangerous to them, their loved ones, or their clients from happening. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cb\u003eClose Protection: Luxury \u0026amp; Hostile Environments Covers\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Close Protection \u0026amp; Bodyguard Business \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDrivers \u0026amp; Bodyguards \u0026amp; Why I don't trust them!! \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLife Skills... \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEscorts \u0026amp; Formations \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eProtective Surveillance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAdvance Security \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStaying in a Hotel \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAttending Meetings \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eClose Protection \u0026amp; Personal Security in Hostile Crowds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCounter-Surveillance Considerations \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eElectronic Surveillance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIntelligence Gathering\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThreat Assessments\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eConsiderations for Self-Defense\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFirst Aid Considerations\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTraveling with Firearms \u0026amp; International Self-Defense \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTactical Gear List\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCountering Snipers \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReconnaissance Operations \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCounterattack Operations \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBombs \u0026amp; Improvised Explosive Device Incidents\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAnd much more!\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003eThe information in this manual has been compiled from my thirty-five plus years of operational experience, and also from that of my close associates.
