At time I and another Marine are saving up to attend a year's worth of Simulated Combat Classes, Firearms certifications courses and General Tactical skills to include, room clearing, egress (tactical retreat), VIP transport, firearms proficiency etc. The location we've chosen is owned, operated and instructed by former Special Forces veterans.
The classes are 8 hours long and can be taken 5 days a week. We intend to devote 1 full year to this training with intent to become properly qualified to:
#1 Better Understand the inner workings of a Private Security Company
#2 Become highly proficient in the tactics, training and equipment use required to operate as Private Security Contractors
#3 Acquire the ability to pass these skills to others down the road.
#4 Have the best assessment to make educated decisions in the creation of our own independent Private Security Company. (aka PMC)
We've spoke on the instructors at the Training Facility have complete confidence in their capability of helping us accomplish the above goals. They are more of a "family" than a rigid company and have stated that if I and the other Marine fit in well we can become part of their community.
This well aid us greatly in obtaining contact information for potential investors, employers/contractors, and even possibly for our own recruitment. It has already been said that if we meet their expectations they will gladly vouch for us and lend themselves as references in the future. The weight of their facility as a positive reference for us in the future is more valuable that I can put into words.
The gofundme at the bottom has been calculated to cover cost of housing, food, and training courses for Two Marines for 1 full year so that we may focus the entire time, 8 hours a day, 5 days a week on training.
If we are able to make it into the top tier of students we may even have a chance of being recruited by the training instructors to become Contractors for them taking contracts overseas in locations such as Iraq, Afghanistan and even parts of Europe.
