Not even special forces?
- nradov 1y agoAre you asking specifically about the US Army Special Forces, or special operations in general? In either case they typically don't have much training in law enforcement. Special Forces do have extensive training on building relationships with locals, which can be helpful with investigations and intelligence gathering. There are also Military Police trained in law enforcement. They tend to deal more with force protection and internal investigations. Some US MPs were responsible for the notorious Abu Ghraib prison torture scandal but there have been some reforms since then.
- rightbyte 1y agoI think I meant UK special forces. I would expect them to have better trigger discipline and discipline in general. And it would be somewhat surprising if they didn't practice "search and not destroy" quite alot for WoT. Then again the whole ordeal lacked in ... many things.
