I know I'm sort of throwing my hat in the ring late here considering nobody's posted in here for about 6 months, but I didn't see an introductions thread or anything so I figured here was as good as anywhere

2 Deployments to the middle east, and a MEU. Work on the garrison MP side as a patrol officer, obviously with the Special Reaction Team as well, as the K9 element as well as a trigger puller with 3 real world breach entries. Work with SOTF teams, Infantry, and Federal Agencies.

Numerous certs: Squad DM, HRP shooting and driving, PSD, MOUT Ops, Jungle Warfare, Fastrope insertion/Helo extraction (with an extremely disgruntled dog), lowlight/no light shoots, breech entry, HME course and probably a few others I can't even remember now.

That's good enough for me. I feel like a showoff already, and it's only my second post.

I know it's still rediculously early for me to worry about stuff like this, but just out of curiosity how do people get the industry professional tag?
