Aaron Cohen with IMS Security was at Camp Bonneville this week to train members of the Southwest Washington Regional SWAT Team. As part of the training, Cohen ran the SWAT members through a simulated shopping mall scenario. Live rounds were used during the training, which was also attended by two Seattle police officers, two soldiers from the Army who will be going to Iraq and even a customs agent from Florida. Cohen is a former member of Israel's top counter-terrorism unit whose aim is to teach new tactics and change mindsets. "My goal isn't to teach them to hit a bulls-eye," he told KATU News. "They already know how to shoot straight. My goal is to give them a skill set and a combat doctrine or philosophy." The training can also be applied to non-terrorist situations, like when a man went on a shooting rampage recently at a Tacoma shopping center.       © Copyright 2001-2004  IMS Security, Inc. , All rights reserved.
