Practical street fighting courses

Capt Charlie trust me I was in this guys position in the early 90's, I chose to go to college and get a Criminal Justice degree over going into the military. When I graduated a lot of guys were coming back from the 1st Gulf war and it was tough. Most LE written exams are kind of easy (to weed out the stupid), so if you ace it you got a 100, but combat vets got 110s, it is hard to compete with that. I totally agree with you that Vets make good cops. Most of my LE friends are Gulf War vets. It is just these wars in Afghanistan and Iraq are creating a lot of guys that can put "combat vet" on their resume.
 
But, in all fairness to OneInTheChamber, we need to bring this one back on topic .

Thanks, but keep on going about that combat vet vs. college grad thing. It's very educating for me.

I figured they valued a college degree a lot because they (LAPD) start you off on a payscale that is about 4-5K more a year.

Thanks for all the great info guys. I think I'm going to look further into Krav.
