Is this open to Civilians?

[sjwsti]

This one is Law Enforcement only.

The LEO class is basically our civilian TacMed Level 1 with a few of the TacMed Level 2 range drills added in. You can attend our Level 1 and 2 and get the exact same info and do the exact same range drills. Additionally you will get more topics/skills covered in the classroom and double the reps on the range by attending the two levels separately.

The next Level 1 is scheduled for Aug. 31st (one spot left), Level 2 is Sept 28th (two spots left).

Is this open to Civilians?

One quick little diversion from the subject of the thread.  The local (city, county, state) LEOs ARE a civilian police force.  Grunts, Jarheads and Squids...THEY are non-civilians.  That's all I have to say about that.

Ok...back to your regularly scheduled program.

Yes Fly....being a Former Naval Officer, you are RIGHT and I should know better..... just keepin' with the "militarized" theme .....

I still catch my self from time to time saying civilian as opposed to citizen (I realize that Leos are also citizens, but I think their is a mindset difference) but am quick to correct myself
