| dc.description | Known for their leadership, physical abilities, firearms training and their respect for discipline and authority, veterans possess many qualities that make them desirable law enforcement employees (The International Association of Chiefs of Police, 2009). The need for qualified police officers is well-known, but the process is lengthy, labor intensive and expensive (Wright, Dai, & Greenbeck, 2011). More than 1.7 million veterans call Texas home which makes the state a prime place to find quality police candidates. By tapping into the capital investments made in veterans by the military, law enforcement agencies (LEA’s) can bolster their ranks with diverse, experienced, and capable people who are inherently diverse and high in human capital (The International Association of Chiefs of Police, 2009). | |
