Accountability

And below you will find some of the training equipment each individual will be issued while in B.L.N.:

Note: Prior to being issued any training equipment, you will be required to sign a “statement of liability” agreeing to pay for anything you damage or lose. All items will be inspected and inventoried prior to your signature and at the end of the training day too. If you do not intend to sign this statement, then you will be denied our training
