- Historical Notes
-
After 9/11, the U.S. government mobilized intelligence and federal law enforcement agencies to share data and expertise with each other, U.S. military partners, international allies, and local informants to combat vast terrorist networks. The influx and analysis of recovered items increased dramatically.
Counter Terrorism Command or SO15 is a Specialist Operations branch within London's Metropolitan Police Service.
