AFSOC Uses ‘Dagger’ Teams as its Pointy Tip of the Spear
4/17/2020
By Scott R. Gourley

In its recently released “Strategic Guidance” document, Air Force Special Operations Command leadership articulates the principle that “AFSOC’s human capital is our competitive advantage.”

One set of tactical organizations where that human capital stands in the spotlight are AFSOC’s deployed aircraft ground response element, or DAGRE — small teams within the Air Force’s security forces that receive specialized training to support the command’s assets and personnel in austere locations around the globe.

The DAGRE program was implemented in 2008, and reflected the realization that security for AFSOC assets was not being properly protected under the previous force protection plan set forth by anti-terrorism officers.

Not what you would call a vote of confidence for the Air Police,is it?
Anyone who isn't paranoid in 2021 just isn't thinking clearly!
