Having been in both the military and LE I believe TS is 100%. My first LE combat shoot, was not a combat shoot from a 0311 (grunt) perspective. The roles are very different, though there are a few shared commonalities. I don't feel that knowing more is harmful. But in the Military the first phase of immediate action is not the same as LE and the LE response will probably get the soldier a place at Arlington. I noticed the responses to the thread on a response to hostile person refusing to obey orders. In RVN if that person was VC or NVA the response would be radically different than a LEO on the street. This is part of spin off problems that comes up when the military (standard infantry) starts taking on the role of LE in a country.
