Subj: Advanced Hand-to-Hand Training
Dear Mr. Levkin; Operations Support Division:
I am making a formal request to appoint a combat instructor to the Pallad City Police Department. With the rising crime rates and everyday hazards of the occupation, I am increasingly concerned that my officers are ill-prepared for hand-to-hand fighting situations. Only a few officers come to mind who I believe would be able to efficiently handle a confrontation requiring advanced physical engagement. The select individuals who I believe are adept at handling such, are ones with prior backgrounds as private military contractors. Unfortunately, most of my officers lack such experience.
Years ago, tactical self-defense courses—including those incorporating various martial arts disciplines—were an integral part of a cadet’s training. However, ever since Central Division implemented the Fast Track Academy Enrollment Program, more officers are arriving without the adequate skills for the job.
Despite recent budget considerations, I feel that the assistance of an experienced combat instructor is necessary for the continued welfare of my officers. Not every situation an officer encounters could or should be resolved through a firearm alone. Expanding their skill sets should not have budget concerns attached to it.
Respectfully,
Victor Hardiman
Chief of Police, Pallad City Police Department

Honestly, the “Ice Queen”‘s outfit reminds me more of Naga than a viking 😛
No unarmed combat training? O_o Wow, I thought Madison’s crack about rookie death rates was just an exaggeration to scare of Reena. What kind of diseased mind would DO something like this?
Leave to the bean-counters to whom the bottom line is much more important than the Officer’s bottoms.
I mean most real world cops don’t get much defensive tactics work either or tactical firearm training. Its one of a large number of reasons lots active and ex-mil dudes don’t have much respect for them as an institution. opinions on them as individuals may vary but it’s kinda how doctors look at lifestlye influencers.
