Great article and training course. We can learn a lot from examples from others in this community of things they've seen and what we should look for. One that stands out was the two young men walking into the church with jugs of water. If I use that example when talking with greeters or parking teams, I follow-up with the question "What about that situation should cause you concern." One simple answer is that it was odd and that is the point. The wolves will come up with some very creative ways to try to bypass security and there will usually be some sort of trigger that gets an observer's attention. The answer or connection may not be obvious at first, but it will just seem odd. Don't disregard that gut or somethings odd feeling. Yes, learn from the examples but don't ever think we've seen it all. Go with your gut and respond appropriately.
