SWAT teams from all over the country, along with teams from various branches of the military, will be gathering in Simsbury on Thursday. This is the site of a head-to-head competion being held there. Teams will be using live fire to simulate many life like scenarios that they may be faced with. Though this is only training, it will have many benefits.
According to wfsb.com, though it is only training, it will be in the prescence of peers and will have many benefits. Also, the teams will be racing the clock which will bring up the heart rate and increase that adrenaline for all the officers, making the excercises much more realistic.
One of the biggest benefits of this event is that even if there is a mistake, everyone still goes home at the end of the day, says Sgt. Mike Manson, a Hartford SWAT team member. These mistakes can then be analyzed to help make sure the teams do not get hurt when they go out on a real job and are faced with constant danger.
