Special Forces Soldiers,

I'm just less than 2 years out from my ETS date, and plan on knocking out selection while still on the active duty side. My question is geared towards any SF Guard Soldiers who are also civilian law enforcement, or who have pertinent information. I plan on trying out for A Co 1/19, but I am also planning on applying to Tacoma Police Department. Regarding the long training pipeline of the Q Course, would it be best to complete the training prior to applying to a police department? Also, with the op tempo of training and deployments in 19th SFG, are there any problems that would hinder one in a civilian LE position?

I am in contact with a TPD recruiter, but would greatly value any knowledge I could gain from you guys as well. Thank you all for your time!
