Default US Border Patrol

Another of my write ups complete with career path. Any suggestions before I add quotes, etc as I'm no expert on the US.

As ever comments and suggestions welcome.

James,

When a black band is worn over the badge this is usually a sign that a fellow Agent or Police Officer has died in the line of Duty.

Thanks, I had assumed from the context it was a trainee thing. I may make it a tradition with the loss of the border territories and the losses there.

Not bad but the equipment section needs to be updated. the Border patrol stopped useing revolvers as primary weapons in the 1980s.

Sources I had showed them using into the 1990s as they were more reliable with the dust and sand. Can anyone advise?

I am sure you will find some Agents with 20 - 30 years still carrying revolvers.
