Prior to the opening of the exposition floor on Wednesday Aug. 27, Maj. James Land, U.S.M.C. retired, will speak from 8 to 10 a.m. Land, who was instrumental in the training of Marine snipers and is now secretary of the National Rifle Association, has been training law enforcement officers to be more effective with rifles since the 1970s. His keynote presentation is titled “Law Enforcement Precision Rifle Training.”

On Thursday Aug. 28, retired CIA officer Felix I. Rodriguez, will speak on counter-insurgency and counter-terrorism operations. Rodriguez, author of “Shadow Warrior: The CIA Hero of a Hundred Unknown Battles,” is a veteran of numerous Agency operations, including the Bay of Pigs, the capture of Che Guevara, and counter-insurgency missions in Vietnam and El Salvador. Since 9/11, Rodriguez has helped law enforcement and military units develop intelligence, counter-terrorism, and counter-insurgency strategies and tactics. He will speak from 8 to 11 a.m.

The expo and the keynote presentations by Land and Rodriguez are free to law enforcement and military personnel.

The TREXPO conference begins Tuesday and features five tracks of timely and potentially life-saving law enforcement training, including hands-on defensive tactics courses, classroom training on active shooter and gang response, and in-depth discussions of new equipment and tactics.
