Describe the Two-Agent Escort.

• A. AIC offset behind Protectee; ADV in front of Protectee
• B. AIC in front of Protectee; ADV behind Protectee
• C. AIC offset behind Protectee; 360/720
• D. AIC offset in front; ADV in front

Answer: (A)

In a two-agent escort, coverage is split to give the protectee forward lead and rear protection, while keeping enough separation for clear observation and quick reaction. The front agent, the ADV, moves ahead of the protectee to survey the route, clear intersections, and spot potential threats before the protectee arrives. The other agent, the AIC, stays behind the protectee to guard the tail, monitor what’s coming from behind, and provide immediate support if a threat emerges from that direction. Placing the AIC behind and the ADV in front creates 360-degree situational awareness, reduces the chance that both guards are surprised by threats from a single direction, and preserves the ability to react, block, or maneuver as needed. This arrangement provides strong front clearance while maintaining rear security, which is why it’s the best fit for a Two-Agent Escort.
