If your job in the military is to be Military Police, what other skills do you need in order to be a civilian police officer. You&#39;ve learned the police stuff, you&#39;ve learned team dynamics, team building, leadership, communication skills, public speaking, tact, decisiveness, bearing, courage, judgement and a host of other things. If you mean like powerpoint, excel...etc they have free programs online to learn that stuff SSgt Randy Saulsberry Thu, 19 Mar 2015 20:28:35 -0400 2015-03-19T20:28:35-04:00 2015-03-19T19:15:27-04:00
