Grey Group hostage rescue course is a 4-day comprehensive course
based on the principles of our High Threat system. Hostage rescue
success is often the result of Tactics, Techniques, and Principles that
are established, trained on, and integrated by Command, Negotiations,
and Operators that are consistent with SWAT’s life-saving mission.
Students will be introduced to procedures for the resolution of a
hostage situation, tactical operation center concepts, CNT procedures,
and hostage rescue techniques and principles with best practices and
industry-accepted standards to resolve the incident. Intel and the
safety of all involved drive our tactics and decision-making.
Our hostage rescue course will differ from others, as emphasis is given
to the entire event and the goal of positive resolution, rather than just
focusing on the “entry” or movement once inside a structure.
Therefore, understanding tactical doctrine leads the course through
individual skill development, small unit tactics, and culminating with
full-team integration. Tactics and skills will cover entry procedures and
movement, single and multi-room designs, multiple entry points,
stronghold and mobile options, security, and hostage/suspect
handling.
Students will learn the phases of deliberate hostage rescue through
planning, rehearsal, movement, intervention, and withdrawal. The
students will conduct several compressed scenarios with Simunition®
while also conducting live-fire validation drills. Depending on host
capabilities, course attendees will also participate in linear entries and
hostage problems in vehicles.
