Anyone else that was at training yesterday have trouble sleeping last night? Scenarios kept manifesting themselves when I was trying to go to sleep, and even in my dreams. And it wasn't just the scenarios in which I was the active responder. This is the third time I have been through PRISM training, and I learn more each time. This training doesn't just challenge your shooting skills. It challenges your powers of observation, your situational awareness, and, deep down, your morals and ethics. We may know how we would like to react, and we may think we know how we actually would react, but until you are in the situation, you don't really know. I still have work to do regarding use of cover and slicing the pie, but I am comfortable with the moral and ethical challenges and decisions that I have faced and made during this training. I highly recommend it for everyone who has made the personal decision to go through life prepared to defend themselves.
