I'm going to bounce off my own post.How in the world did the SS think Butler could provide protection with these two extremely small police departments. They do not list a SWAT or Sniper team. I wonder if they used regular officers and didn't actually have a sniper team?

The Butler Township Police Department is managed by Chief John Hays and consists of a lieutenant, four patrol sergeants, three detectives, twelve full time patrol officers, one part time dog law enforcement officer, and two full time clerical support staff.![]()

The Police Department is staffed by an administrative captain, a detective sergeant, and twenty uniformed officers.
I'm searched to find out who and how protection plans are designed and executed.
The only reference is Secret Service plan for both National Conventions. It appears the local LE designed, staffed and implemented the plans for the perimeter. The plans have significant differences. I would have thought they would have been a standard plan for both locations.
I'm beginning to wonder....if the SS left the entire parameter plan up to local law enforcement. Certainly the two small departments would not be capable of such an extensive plan or large number of staff.
