CHAPTER 1

INTRODUCTION AND RESPONSIBILITIES

1. Introduction. Commander, Military Sealift Command (COMSC) is responsible for ensuring that appropriate measures are taken to safeguard personnel and property within the command (including Navy/Military Sealift Command (MSC) controlled ships), and establishing and maintaining a formal Force Protection (FP) program.

2. Mission. The mission of MSC is to meet Department of Defense (DOD) requirements by providing efficient sea transportation, combat-ready logistics forces, and reliable special mission shipping in peace and war.

a. MSC ships must enter port regularly to execute their primary missions of combat logistics support, special missions, and DOD cargo movement. Due to their civilian crews and manning levels, MSC ships have unique FP considerations and limitations that differ from naval vessels with military crews.

(1) Manning conditions of civilian crewed ships make it difficult to assign crewmembers for full-time security duties without significantly impacting their primary responsibilities.

(2) Civilian mariners (CIVMARs) and contract merchant mariners (CONMARs) are not members of the Armed Forces or Federal law enforcement and are not governed by military Rules of Engagement (ROE).

(3) MSC ships maintain a basic, within the lifelines, self-defense capability (small arms, ammunition, and training for a minimum of five crew members) as well as other basic physical security equipment and ATFP training. These small arms qualified civilian mariners (who are on the crew list but will not necessarily be aboard ship) are neither intended, nor available, for security duties on a routine basis. All AA&E ships (T-AKE/T-AOE) carrying cargo ordnance shall maintain, at a minimum, a two person response force as required by reference (a).

b. Shipboard ATFP must be responsive to changing threats addressed from a variety of perspectives, including:

operations, training, equipment/hardware acquisition and maintenance, contracting, and coordination with other commands/agencies.

c. The most effective safeguard in combating terrorism is an intelligent analysis and realistic appraisal of the threat potential, and a well thought out pre-planned response. Masters must always be prepared to initiate necessary actions to prevent or minimize loss of life, destruction of property, or disruption of mission. The routine practice of pre-planned responses as contained in Appendix E is required and essential for the success of a robust shipboard FP program.

3. MSC Headquarters Staff.

a. Executive Director (N01) will ensure MSC Program Offices and Program Managers adequately budget for Force Protection each fiscal year and ensure MSC has sufficient funding to carry out FP & CBRD mandated requirements of DOD, Navy, and the Unified Commanders.

b. Public Affairs Director (N00P):

(1) Be notified of all interviews before interviews are conducted.

(2) Consistent with numbered fleet Public Affairs guidance, approve and authorize public release of any information regarding terrorist incidents.

(3) Consistent with numbered fleet Public Affairs guidance, determine action to be taken regarding public questions asked pertaining to FP.

c. Program Managers will:

(1) Perform type commander (TYCOM) functions for all ships to ensure operation is in compliance with MSC Force Protection/CBRD policy. Program Managers should budget for all requirements for their class of ships to include ATFP/CBRD.

(2) Assign a representative to the Antiterrorism Working Group (ATWG).

(3) Assign a representative to the Antiterrorism Executive Committee (ATEC).

(4) Coordinate with N34 to ensure vulnerability assessments are completed for all MSC ships.

(5) Coordinate with the Company Security Officer (CSO) of each operating company to ensure each ship within the program complies with all security standards and requirements for Government Owned Contractor Operated (GOCO) and Contractor Owned Contractor Operated (COCO) ships.

(6) Coordinate ship availability with MSC Area Command Force Protection Officers to determine time periods that allow Naval Criminal Investigative Services - Security Training Assistance and Assessment Teams (NCIS-STAAT) to schedule and conduct Individual Ship Assessment (ISA), required every 3 years as described in Chapter 5.

(7) Ensure all persons requesting unrestricted access to the ship are submitted and properly vetted through MSC-DET EPIC as required by reference (b).

(8) Ensure each ship has an assigned Antiterrorism Officer (ATO) designated in writing by the Master. The licensed deck or engineering officer designated as the ship’s ATO shall receive ATO Level II training prior to assignment. The ATO must complete Refresher ATO Level II training every three years to maintain this qualification. ATO qualifications may be obtained by attending the course at MSC Training Centers or the online course on NKO. The licensed deck or engineering officer designated as the ship’s ATO shall complete this training prior to assignment. The ATO is the Antiterrorism Training Officer (ATTO) and the term ATO will be used in lieu of ATTO throughout the remainder of this instruction.

(9) Ensure each ship has an assigned CBRD Officer (CBRDO) where applicable. The CBRDO must have completed MSC’s CBRD Officer Course within the past five years, must be assigned in writing by the ship’s Master and must be performing the duties of the CBRDO as discussed in chapter 2. The licensed deck or engineering officer designated as the ship’s CBRDO shall complete this training prior to assignment.

(10) Ensure all shipboard personnel complete Level I Antiterrorism Awareness (AT1) training and CBRD indoctrination training IAW the training periodicity requirement in Appendix C.

(11) Ensure each ship has a minimum of 5 small arms qualified personnel onboard and ensure replacement crew members requiring small arms qualification are qualified prior to being sent to join a ship. Specific weapon qualification requirements are contained in chapter 2, paragraph 6.

(12) Ensure each ship has a minimum of 5 shipboard personnel who are qualified to be members of the Ship’s Reaction Force (SRF) and the Ship’s Watch Stander Team prior to being sent to join the ship. If necessary, this training may be conducted on board ship by the MSC Afloat Training Team or an MSC-approved civilian instructor.
