Jason Farr : ******@*****.*** / 256-***-****

SUMMARY

During the course of my professional career in law enforcement, private military contracting, and the military service, I have received numerous commendations for going above and beyond my duties. I continue my training and education to improve my skills and knowledge. I consider myself to have a very strong commitment to excellence and innate integrity, and I believe the best leaders are those who lead by example. Currently, I primarily work conducting armed private security and K9 training for various companies based on contract needs.

I was assigned as a Subject Matter Expert with an Iraqi interpreter to the U.S. Army’s 388th Military Police unit from Ft. Benning to develop the Iraqi police SWAT teams in the Maysan Province of Iraq. I instructed the Iraqi SWAT through use of my interpreter in CQB missions searching for known terrorists wanted for various high-threat crimes against the Iraqi police and U.S. forces. I advised the Iraqi police in security and logistics of their own operations. I instructed them on how to check weapon inventory, taught marksmanship and maintenance of their weapons, and conducted weekly training in patrol tactics, warrant services, arrest techniques and SWAT CQB tactics at the district headquarters. After that, I was embedded with a U.S. Marine Corps (PTT Team) in the Al Anbar Province. We conducted security operations with Iraqi police setting up checkpoints and limiting access in and out of the cities in the area. We developed a partnership to teach, train, mentor, and assess the Iraqi police at the district and station levels through working closely with Arabic interpreters.
