Decent money...

Well as it is not for eveyone, there are those that are willing to do it. I did a mission in Iraq with Dyn as a bomb dog handler and loved it. Is it dangerous, ABSOLUTLEY!!! But I also spent 12 years as a Police Officer in Texas and understand what the dangers were and could be. I looked into the mission and asked as many questions that I could think of, before I decided to do it. Take at look at there website at www.policemission.com that will give you a little insight. Good Luck

I must say its a pretty damn bad idea to put LE's on the Iraqi border with no military exp.. A combat zone is completely different than patrolling your local neighborhood, for some reason all Dyncorp wants is LE officers speaking from experience its a bad idea beware when applying to this position. Military support is not always available.

The money does sound good but believe me when I say not to trust Dyncorp in what they say or the support they say you will have. The recruiters get paid for a body that signs on the line and a body is all you are...

Decent money...

Not really, when you consider what those with the experience they want are making right here at home.

"Not really, when you consider what those with the experience they want are making right here at home"

Well I'm surprised at this comment....

I have 25 years of relevant Law Enforcement experience (including Police, Customs, Immigration, etc) This includes a year with the Police Transition Team in IRAQ as an International Police Advisor.

An ideal candidate, one would think? My experience ticks all their boxes.

However, I only make $ 30,200 a year + another 13% shift allowance for all my experience.

So I would love to know which jobs pay anywhere near $ 134 K per year in the United States, and I will apply to that agency within the next 5 minutes!

There are many Federal Law Enforcement jobs where you can easily make that much. I just finished my first year with my Agency and I'll clear 100K easily with all the pay. It's really not that hard within 5 years to make that money in Federal LE. My last Agency people were make over 134K a year with overtime. I think with all that training and experience you say you have you are well under paid.

Most of the guys that I have known to go on those missions are the ones that work for either small/medium sized agencies that average 28K-60K a year....and retired folks....

Double your salary or make some cash so you don't have to tap into your retirement funds just yet makes for a good reason to take a hard look at it.....

Hi there Manstown. Sounds like a great job you've got!

Which Agency do you work for?
Do they have offices in N.E. Florida?
Do they take people over 37 years old?
What is their Educational requirement(s)?
Are they currently recruiting for vacancies?

Let me know... I'd love to find out more about this job.

Thanks,
