ABSTRACT
In the first two chapters, I outlined some of the basic concepts that show how biometrics work and the key contributions that biometrics can make to various kinds of military missions. My intent with these chapters was to provide just enough detail to prepare the reader for a more in-depth discussion of how a military force can prepare itself to execute the various military biometrics missions I will discuss throughout the book, without getting bogged down in too much technical minutiae. There is much more on the technical aspects of biometrics in the appendices, particularly in Appendices B and C.
