Air Force Security Forces (formerly named Air Police, and then Security Police and colloquially called "cops" by USAF personnel), are the military police of the United States Air Force. |

| USAF Airmen in this field go through 13 weeks on initial technical training at Lackland Air Force Base at the Security Forces Academy (formerly named the Security Police Academy). | |||||||||||
| Security Forces members write and implement policing and security activities, as well as resource protection, for the Department of Defense (DOD) and the U.S. Air Force. | |||||||||||

| They are the first and only ground based line of defense for the USAF. | |||||||||||
| They are trained in ground combat skills, which include but are not limited to, small arms experts, snipers, heavy and crew served weapons systems, vehicular and aero insertion techniques (Air Assault), hostage negotiation, counter narcotics, special weapons and tactics (EST), counter terrorism, hand-to-hand defense techniques, and advanced infantry tactics (Army Rangers). | |||||||||||

Since the beginning of the Global War on Terrorism (GWOT), 7 Security Forces members have been Killed In Action (KIA). I've created a special website section for documenting these KIA's. for more info on KIA's click here. |
