I bet those guys had backrounds.
Everyone has a "background".
Nothing special as far as LE/Military. One had been a Marine, but did nothing there that would give him an edge. I hired him because he came WELL recommended from another PPO team leader. One had no military or LE background, but had significant training in the field, and had solid PPO experience. One guy I had worked with and knew his level of commitment, and the last has been in the security/dignitary protection field for some time.
All of these guys had been doing piece meal contract work, and this was a full time permenant assignment.
