[QUOTE="Thomas Rogers, post: 731254, member: 60724"] Nelson and others discussing military vs civilian police, Can we all agree they are different? Can we agree that the military person, especially when on base, has fewer civil liberties than Joe Schmo walking on the street? Can we assume that being trained for one duty doesn't mean you are ready to do the other? My bro-in-law was an MP stationed in Germany. He did undercover drug stings. He served honorably for years and was in the reserves. He tried to get into civilian police (RI staties, local RI and Conn police). He never really was able to break into it. Might it have been nepotism, etc that kept him out...sure. But he himself will tell you that what makes you good at one job, doesn't necessarily prepare you well for the other. TJR [/QUOTE]
