This weekend I had the opportunity to work with the Sacramento Police SWAT and Amtrak to assist in a training scenario.  This event took place on one of Amtrak’s California cars and was a portion of the Urban Shield ‘09 SWAT competition.  I think that is was rather funny to be a role-player in a hostage scenario in my first time ever on an Amtrak train.  For more information on the event please go to http://www.urbanshield.org/
