In my opinion there is a huge difference between the 'standard' requirements for passing basic training in the Army & the Police Force.
In the Army the bottom line is that you can do the drill, take orders & 'fit in'.
The Police Force is more about individual performance - much of the work a Police Officer has to do is 'one on one' in that they are often required to deal with situations before any potential backup is available.
PeteL - to be honest if I was your basic training instructor I would fail you on the basis you have pre-conceived attitudes that might affect your ability to take orders - for example if you were required to support the Police ....
