Just curious if anyone has heard of this place. They offer a "contractor" training course for 2900.00. Someone I know asked me about it and they strike me as being assclownish. Especially when they talk about earning 250,000-450,000 a year. Please tell me what contractor alternate reality they are in.

Yep, they advertise the potential income loud and proud in the 'Employment Opportunities' page on their site. (http://www.brigadesf.com/overseas_contractor.html)

Aside from the other red flags. I wasn't even going to go there with the whole Eagle thing. That was the first thing that leapt out at me on the site. I have advised him to go to Vegas rather than blow 2900 with these clowns.

I don't really know anything about this company personally, but I can say that I would never take a company seriously if they fail to use proper language on their homepage...

"Elite" Counter-Terrorist Groups and many Private Corporations have acquired Brigade's services on a Contract basis. Achievement Levels of Brigade Students are the Highest in the business.
Our Staff will make sure your stay at Brigade is as enjoyable and rewarding as possible. Instructors are Professionals with numerous years of Active Experience. Please compare Brigade to the rest - then You will understand why we are rated number one in the world. Brigade provides a "Standard of Excellence" against which ALL other facilities must be measured! Established 1980


It looks like they hired a third grader to pick through and randomly decide which words to capitalize. Maybe it's just a pet peeve of mine, but if they can't even be professional enough to use proper capitalization on their web site, they don't deserve my hard-earned money.

Maybe they are secretly brainwashing and training the new army for the 4TH Reich? Seriously though, KSM you have a point. When I see advos with spelling and punctuation issues it tells me that they had no one competent enough to do it right. That then makes me wonder about their training.

I'll bet if you ask for details about their claims they will start back-peddling all the way across the Atlantic. If you notice there is no email address. I called acting as a "joe blow" to ask where they got the salary figures from and they stated that is the "industry norm" for this type of work. I said thanks and hung up as I didn't want to start laughing at them over the phone.

Prominent are Close Quarter battle techniques utilizing the finest firearms & equipment available. Pre-departure training and planning are a must if You are going "Over There" to make the BIG bucks.
