Bonners Ferry Border Patrol Explorer Post #190
held their April meeting at the Spokane Police
Department, where the U.S. Border Patrol
currently houses their Virtra simulator machine.
This $250,000 machine is used by law enforcement
all over the country to train in scenarios and
situations where an officer may or may not have
to shoot.
Explorers were trained on using verbal commands
to talk a person out of a potentially dangerous
situation to responding to a school shooting and
needing to make split second decisions deciding
if the people in the scenario were students or a
shooter.
All the Explorers did a fantastic job and we are
extremely thankful to the Spokane Sector Border
Patrol Instructors who took the time to come in
and allow us the opportunity to use their
machine. |
