P&S Year 1: SITREP 2: Law Enforcement Mindset (Audio)

by

Primary & Secondary SITREP

Originally broadcast Feb 18, 2016.

Discussion about Law Enforcement issues and mindset. (Yes, Bill’s audio is horrible). When I was trying to figure out our format, early on we tried a structure that is much closer to what we do now – SITREP. Focused discussions versus the then scattered random discussions without direction ModCasts. I’m slowly getting the old stuff edited and rereleased. …and Bill’s audio absolutely sucked. Link is at the bottom.

Host: Matt Landfair
