Quinn describes the steps taken to “harden” the embassy against potential attacks, and protect employees and American citizens, including armoring vehicles and rearranging embassy offices to enhance immediate coordination and reaction to threats. He explains how he feels the ultimate responsibility for the lives and wellbeing not only of all American staff, but of all American citizens.
