Some time ago, attention was drawn to information that in the care of modern veterans, courses are also available in the newly open branch of the British GEO SSL company, which can certify applicants in the field of ownership and personal protection abroad, while having contracts in Africa, Iraq and Afghanistan. In addition, through the Ministry of Defense, these courses are partially subsidized at the expense of the European Union, so they finally become accessible to everyone - both the price and the place of the venue.
The reaction did not make it wait, and there were dubious questions about the benefits of such courses for experienced veterans. Of course, there is already an internationally valid and prestigious certificate that potentially allows you to get a contract to work in the fields of increased risk, but it was still not clear that the veterans will study in two weeks in intensive courses. We give answers in the form of an interview with one of those who have already passed the course. France served for many years in parachutists in Chrudim, he was also in Afghanistan, but then he became a professional soldier and two years later, he was looking for an opportunity to return to his favorite profession ...
Is there a way to compare what you study on the course of Geo SSL, so that you have already knew as a soldier? Can you bring some examples?
The course itself, which I recently finished, of course, specializes in the very specific work of the personal defender, so the overwhelming majority of information was for me in a novelty, or I came to her in the past, not during military training. On the other hand, I must add that there is definitely something in common here. For example, I, of course, was well versed in navigation and work with a map (MGRS, UTM and the like).
The course and the work of the contractor are based on the assumption that you have already acquired certain skills and experience during internship in the armed forces. At least it is definitely an advantage. An employee of the "private armies" should have a big self-discipline, should be able to handle a good weapon and military equipment, should know the local environment, know what it is when it comes to the life of a person. He must be able to work in a team with different people. When you get into trouble, it is impossible to say: "I will not go further, this is a thing in life." And no one will prepare you better than the army and mission beyond it, it is logical.
I can look at it in many respects as a former soldier, but for the "civilian", which was never in the zone of the crisis, no one depended on his responsibility, reliability, punctuality and courage, this is a completely different working environment. What the former soldiers can do from combat units are undoubtedly a prerequisite for both the contractor and the smooth completion of the GEO SSL course.
