Capitol Avenue, Suite 500 Fax 501-340-2725 Little Rock, Arkansas 72201 We are proud to announce our next training opportunity for law enforcement. The Law Enforcement Coordinating Committee and the Arkansas Tactical Officers’ Association are joining together to bring you an amazing class, “The Beslan Terrorist School Siege and Lessons for America.� The presenter for this event is Mr. John Giduck, of Archangel Group. He arrived at the Beslan Middle School No. 1 in North Ossetia, Russia, at the conclusion of the battle by Russian Special Forces to retake the school. He spent months investigating all aspects of this attack, including many interviews with Russian Special Forces, government officials, and Beslan townspeople. This seminar will focus on his investigation into how the terrorists' plan was formed, how intelligence was developed for the assault, how defenses were deployed, and how ultimately negotiations failed and why, resulting in more than 300 dead in a ten hour battle. As well, this seminar covers the government's plan in handling the crisis, what went wrong, and what went right. Vulnerabilities of U.S. schools to this same type of assault and necessary changes in security to protect our children are presented in detail. Diagrams, video, and never before seen photos from Archangel's representatives are included. Archangel Group was the only American agency that conducted an on-scene investigation of this tragedy as it unfolded. Mr. Giduck authored his book, Terror At Beslan: A Russian Tragedy with Lessons for America's Schools, to detail the history leading up to this terrorist event, as well all aspects of the siege and the aftermath.
