The
Special Response Team is a team of specifically trained
personnel, proficient in the use
of special weapons and tactics, geared to combat small-scaled
actions or contend with unusual situations. The team
is comprised of select members of the Vanderbilt Police
Department who have taken and passed a battery of tests
to obtain membership onto the Special Response Team.
These test include a physical fitness evaluation, firearms
qualification, oral interview, and psychological examination.
The primary objective of the S.R.T. is to complement
the Vanderbitl Police Department by providing the use
of special weapons and tactics in "unusual situations"
that cannot be effectively dealt with by Line Operations.
Some of the specialized supportive and tactical actions
include: surveillance, inner-perimeter containment, expedition
of large scale arrests, dignitary protection, and any
other situations that may require the services of the
S.R.T. The team is always on call and is expected to
respond in a timely and professional manner. |
