      ITEM 1. SECURITY AND ISSUER.

      The class of equity securities to which this statement relates is the
Common Stock (the "Common Stock") of Command Security Corporation (the
"Company"). The principal executive offices of the Company are located at Route
55, Lexington Park, Lagrangeville, NY, 12540.

      ITEM 2. IDENTITY AND BACKGROUND.

      (a) - (c) This statement is being filed by Mr. Bruce Galloway (the
"Reporting Person"), an individual investor, whose principal place of business
is c/o Galloway Capital Management, LLC, 1325 Avenue of the Americas, 26th Floor
New York, NY 10019.

      (d) - (e) The Reporting Person has not, during the last five years, been
convicted in a criminal proceeding (excluding traffic violations and similar
misdemeanors) or been a party to a civil proceeding of a judicial or
administrative body of competent jurisdiction and as a result of such proceeding
was or is subject to a judgment, decree or final order enjoining future
violations of, or prohibiting or mandating activities subject to, Federal or
state securities laws or finding any violation with respect to such laws.

      (b) The Reporting Person is a United States citizen.

      ITEM 3. SOURCE AND AMOUNT OF FUNDS OR OTHER CONSIDERATION.

      See Item 5(a) below.

      ITEM 4. PURPOSE OF TRANSACTION.

      The Reporting Person initially acquired securities of the Company as an
investment in the Company. Following a period of several months of discussions
with one or more members of the Company's Board of Directors about the
performance of the Company and the Company's potential additional capital
requirements, and the Reporting Person's continued dissatisfaction with such
performance and, in particular, the performance of William Vassell, the Chief
Executive Officer of the Company ("Vassell"), the Reporting Person is now
seeking to acquire a more substantial equity position in the Company, to pursue
discussions with the Company regarding the potential for providing the Company
with additional capital, which the Reporting Person believes is required, to
remove Vassell from all positions that he holds with the Company and its
affiliates and to modify the composition of the Company's Board of Directors to
include directors recommended or designated by the Reporting Person. In
furtherance of these objectives, pursuant to a letter agreement dated March 2,
2004, as amended on April 1, 2004, GCM Security Partners, LLC, a limited
liability company of which the Reporting Person is the managing member ("GCM"),
and Reliance Security Group plc ("Reliance"), GCM and Reliance have entered into
exclusive negotiations concerning the sale by Reliance to GCM of (i) 1,617,339
shares of the Company's Common Stock, (ii) 12,325.35 shares of the Company's
preferred stock (which are convertible into 1,232,535 shares of the Company's
Common Stock, (iii) a warrant to acquire 150,000 shares of the Company's Common
Stock at an exercise price of $1.03125 per share and (iv) a warrant to acquire
2,298,092 shares of the Company's Common Stock at an exercise price of $1.25 per
share (the securities referred to in (i) - (iv) above are referred to herein as
the "Reliance Securities"). The acquisition of the Reliance Securities by GCM is
subject to the following conditions:



      1. Board Approval. The prior or contemporaneous approval by the Company's
Board of Directors or the determination by the Company's Board of Directors that
the anti-takeover provisions contained in the Company's Articles of
Incorporation are inapplicable to the proposed purchase and sale of the Reliance
Securities;

      2. Termination of Vassell. Vassell shall either have resigned or shall be
terminated from all positions held by him with the Company or any of its
subsidiaries or affiliates, whether as a director, officer or member of any
committee of the Company.

      3. Resignation of Reliance and Vassell Directors. Concurrent with the
closing of the sale and purchase of the Reliance Securities, all members of the
Board of Directors or any committee of the Board of Directors of the Company or
any of its subsidiaries or affiliates that have been nominated or designated by
or on behalf of Reliance or Vassell, other than Carl Painter, shall have
resigned from such positions.

      4. Lender Approval. The Company's lenders shall have agreed in writing
that no default or event of default shall occur or have occurred as a result of
the consummation of the sale and purchase of the Reliance Securities.

      5. Due Diligence. GCM shall have completed its due diligence investigation
of Company to its satisfaction in its sole discretion.

      6. Definitive Agreement. Reliance and GCM shall have entered into a formal
written stock purchase agreement and other documentation, containing such
representation and warranties, agreements, closing conditions and
indemnification provisions as are customary and appropriate for a transaction of
this nature and magnitude and mutually acceptable to each of GCM and Reliance in
their discretion.

      In response to these initiatives, on April 7, 2004, Gregory J. Miller, the
Chairman of the Company's Independent Director's Committee, wrote to a
representative of the Reporting Person that, based on his efforts, Mr. Miller
obtained a commitment from Vassell to resign from his positions with the Company
and to support GCM's acquisition of the Reliance Securities, only if, among
other things, (i) GCM agrees to purchase 100% of the Company's securities owned
by Vassell at $1.00 per share, (ii) Vassell receives his "termination
compensation" under his employment agreement with the Company, (iii) Vassell is
permitted to retain 200,000 warrants to acquire the Company's common shares at a
price of $1.25 per share, the duration of such warrants is extended to a period
of five years, subject to certain conditions, and (iv) Vassell is paid an
additional $75,000 for his agreement not to solicit any current customer of the
Company or any member of the Company's senior management for a period of one
year. Under a shareholders agreement between Vassell and Reliance, Vassell has
the right to designate three members of the Company's Board of Directors and,
therefore, substantially influence, if not control, the outcome of the Reporting
Person's ability to acquire the Reliance Securities and to contribute additional
capital to improve the business of the Company. The Reporting Person believes
that the right granted to Vassell to appoint three members to the Company's
Board of Directors disparately reduces the voting rights of the Company's other
shareholders. Further, the Reporting Person believes that Vassell's requests
indicate clearly that he is placing his personal financial interests ahead of
the interests of the Company and all of its shareholders, which could benefit
greatly by the transaction proposed by the Reporting Person.



      On April 8, 2004, Vassell commenced a lawsuit against Reliance and the
Company in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New
York seeking to prevent the proposed transaction between Reliance and the
Reporting Person.

      ITEM 5. INTEREST IN SECURITIES OF THE ISSUER.

      (a) As of the date hereof, the Reporting Person, for and on behalf of
accounts over which he has control, beneficially owns an aggregate of 384,500

by the Company to be issued and outstanding as of February 13, 2004 in the
Company's latest Form 10-Q filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

      The Reporting Person may be deemed to have obtained beneficial ownership
of the Common Stock pursuant to a Proxy, dated April 6, 2004, from Europa
International Inc. ("Europa") pursuant to which the Reporting Person was
appointed the proxy of Europa, with full power and sole discretion to vote the
shares of Common Stock held by Europa for a period of three months. Europa
beneficially owns an aggregate of 212,000 shares of Common Stock, representing
approximately 3.37% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock.

      The Reporting Person, with the proxy from Europa, beneficially owns a
total of 6.12% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock.

      (b) The Reporting Person currently has sole voting power over 384,500
shares of Common Stock and sole power to dispose of 172,500 shares of Common
Stock.

      (c) The Reporting Person has not effected any transaction in shares of
Common Stock during the 60 days preceding the date hereof.

      (d) Not applicable.

      (e) Not applicable.

      ITEM 6. CONTRACTS, ARRANGEMENTS, UNDERSTANDING OR RELATIONSHIPS WITH
RESPECT TO SECURITIES OF THE ISSUER.

      As stated above, the Reporting Person was appointed the proxy of Europa,
with full power and sole discretion to vote the shares of Common Stock held by
Europa for a period of three months. No shares of the Common Stock were
purchased from Europa.

      ITEM 7. MATERIAL TO BE FILED AS EXHIBITS.

      (1) Proxy, dated April 6, 2004, from Europa International Inc. to Bruce
Galloway.
