I'm not sure exactly, though I have some ideas. I'm into martial arts, train protection/security/drug dogs as a hobby, and am experienced with all sorts of firearms, though being in England, where most firearms are banned, my skill stagnates. I only get home about twice a year to shoot. I have a bachelor's degree in professional aeronautics, minoring in security and intelligence.
For a time, I was thinking law enforcement, but I am trending more toward private security work. I enjoy the outdoors and staying active, because I really deflate behind a desk - which is actually, and surprisingly, where I have been for most of my time in the military.
Who knows. Maybe I want to have my cake and eat it to, but I'd like to enjoy my work and the area I live. Why sacrifice when this is the only earthly life we get?
I've checked out their website before and it seems like a pretty good opportunity. I've never spent any time in the bush but would like to think I'd get on okay. One way or another, I'll get out there and test the waters. Got to give it a go.
And how fortunate you were to leave this land; I have a lot of good local friends here, but it certainly is a country in desperate need of change. Alot of that pressure was fromthe group level to be sure, but things fluctuate up and down, and we seem to be in a bit more of a coast mode. How long were you here? I'm heading for my 4 year mark.
I almost bought an XD .45...almost, but went with a Glock.More of a 1911 guy but wanted a "plastic" gun. What's your opinion of the XD? Too bad we didn't talk before this...I can't find people who share my interest, even in the military.
