Making better information, more consistently accessible is a huge hurdle in the training community. What's even more difficult, is having a space to practice that information, and the associated skillsets. Checkmate Group in Texas has brought a unique spin to the effort, but building their own facility, and granting access to their students to continue their training and growth. Forrest Dohrmann, one of the owners is a dedicated civilian, like many of us, and has invested in his own personal preparedness and the growth of his community. To really get into this and break down why it's important, we sit down and talk about the evolution of the community, the value of an aggressive mindset, and the capacity to be a protector. For as common as being a prepared civilian is, it's still something we don't have nearly enough of, especially when it comes to sharing knowledge and experience. This is a great discussion, and one that I think we'll all relate to.
