The Civil Guard (Hebrew: משמר אזרחי, Mishmar Ezrahi‎), often abbreviated in Hebrew to Mash'az (משא"ז) is a volunteer organization of Israeli citizens which assists in daily police work. It is a subdivision of the Israel Police. As of today, the Civil Guard is a division in the "Police and Community" branch of the Israel Police. The Civil Guard is managed and supported by the police which provide weapons, equipment, training and police officers who command local Civil Guard bases(each community has one or more Civil Guard bases). Although the Civil Guard is operated by the police, its manpower consists mainly of civilian volunteers. Members are trained to provide the initial response to a security situation until the police arrive. Most Civil Guard volunteers are armed with M1 Carbines and personal handguns (if the member has a civilian gun license). The Civil Guard is composed mainly of "classic" volunteers who do patrols (in car or on foot) once in a while. They go through basic training and have [sometimes limited] police powers while on duty. They may apprehend a suspected person or even make an arrest if necessary. Equipment generally consists of a fluorescent yellow police vest, flashlight, radio, firearm, handcuffs and whatever else may be required particular to the assignment. Equipment is returned at the end of the shift. Most volunteers manage about one shift a week (2 to 4+ hours), while the minimum requirement is 12 hours a month. There are also Matmid (מתמי"ד) volunteers which operate far more intensively than "Classic"s in regular police work. Yatam (ית"מ) volunteers mainly operate in traffic control. Both Matmid and Yatam are more like volunteer police officers. They have almost all the authorities of a regular police officer. They receive advanced training and wear regular police uniforms. The Civil Guard also has special units (such as snipers, dune buggy riders, bicycle-riders, search-and-rescue teams, cavalry and divers), but their members have to go through additional training and have a higher level of commitment (they have to volunteer for more hours a month). History The Civil Guard was established in July 10, 1974as a group of civilians volunteered to do night patrols in near-border neighborhoods, which were exposed to Palestinian terror attacks, and in particular following the Ma'alot massacre of May 15, 1974. Later, the focus was shifted from counter terror patrols to assist daily police work such as fighting crime and neighborhood violence. In 2004, the Civil Guard reportedly had some 70,000 volunteers, 28% of them women. Some 20,000 new volunteers joined that year and 17,000 left the service. The typical volunteer profile is a 40-55 years-old upper-middle-class male, married with children. Some Join as early as 14 to get a start on there 2 years services. Due to the high level of required commitment, some 20% of all volunteers quit during their first year of service. Between 1974-2004, over half a million citizens volunteered for the Civil Guard. ******** Voluntary Service in Mishmar HaEzrachi (Civil Guard) Based on the current IDF guidelines, if you made aliyah, and your age of arrival was over 30, you will most likely not be drafted (see our document on length of army service, and check with your local draft board for your personal army status Otherwise, your profile and/or family situation may also keep you from getting drafted. Voluntary Service in Mishmar HaEzrachi (Civil Guard)See the Mishmar Ezrachi Website This presents olim who arrive after this age with a real challenge: Because IDF service is still the lowest common denominator in this society, absence of army service can impede the absorption process – both socially and linguistically. It also leads, in many cases, to feelings of inferiority and guilt on the part of the oleh who misses the opportunity to contribute to the security of the country. While not a total substitute for regular or reserve army service, volunteering in Mishmar HaEzrachi (or "Mashaz" for short) may address and resolve some of these very real issues. Mashaz is an integral service force of the National Police, within whose mandate generally falls responsibility for internal security (a.k.a. anti-terrorism). In its most common configuration, it is made up of civilian volunteers, under regular police commanders, who devote a minimum of one evening per month (but usually more, by choice). During this time, they patrol their neighborhoods or settlements against crime and terrorist activity. Members of Mashaz are commissioned as deputized police officers (while on duty) and are given basic instruction in crime-control, first aid, firearms (m-1 carbine), and police procedure. Since units are made up of all sectors of the population, volunteers expand their acquaintance with all sectors of Israeli society while improving their Hebrew as well. The bond among the members of Mashaz is quite strong, as evidenced by a convention of Mashaz in Latrun which gathered together 10,000 volunteers (out of a total of 40,000 nation-wide). The feeling of self-less contribution to the quality of life of, and of inclusiveness in the oleh’s new home is patent. The Guard sponsors social events as well, as for instance, at Hanukkah time. For those who wish a more intensive involvement, Mashaz also maintains special units which integrate and serve (in uniform) with the regular police force, as fully recognized policemen. After undergoing intensive (after hours) training, and a background security check, volunteers may choose to serve (a minimum of 12-16 hrs per month), with one of the following units of the Israel Police: Regular Patrol (Siyyur), Tourist Police, Bomb Squad, Juvenile, Border Guards (Mishmar HaGevul), Rescue, Traffic, Sharpshooters, Special Readiness Squads, and Sea Police. These units are considered the elite of Mashaz and are respected by the entire country for their special dedication. They maintain their own officers corps (parallel to the regular police chain of command, and subject thereto) and have been credited with some of the more outstanding police achievements in the past few years. They are an integral part of the police force manpower, which has entered a critical point in its history. An example of the roles played by units such as Matmid and Yaham can be seen regarding the assassination of Prime Minister Rabin (of blessed memory). The Jerusalem unit attached to the Tourist Police was stationed in the Knesset plaza to help ensure order while the casket lay in state. During the funeral, almost the entire regular police force from all over the country was mobilized for security in the capital. Yaham, Matmid and Neighborhood units were mobilized to fill police duties in every city and town in Israel. For this, they received a letter of commendation from the Inspector General of the Police, Assaf Hefetz. Mashaz is in need of expanding its manpower base and actively solicits enlistment. Those men and women who are interested can inquire at their local police station. ebay106
