BillCA,

I read the story, and it was very interesting. I had hoped it was the story I was taught of during my training. The incident took place in CA (I think), but I am sorry I don't have enough specifics at the moment.

During the follow-up forensics and/or investigations where the multiple patrol officers were killed in gun battle, it was noted that Every single deceased LEO had their spent shell casings in their pockets. During training these LEO's were taught to save their shell casings this way, so the habit transferred to real life scenarios(and possible assisted in their demise). Obviously, this training stopped after said incident. I just thought it was interesting - not sure if you guys have ever heard of the story
