BLACKWATER NORTH   Train at our newest location in Mount Carroll, Illinois

Community Notices

10 April 2007

Hello Neighbors,

Well, our training has started in Mount Carroll, and we are hopeful that this will be a good year for us, the community, and our clients from local, state and federal law enforcement agencies. In the past few weeks, I have heard and seen several stories about Blackwater in the press and radio. Let me assure you that anything you hear referring to our company as mercenaries is groundless and untrue. Anything you hear about us opening a secret training center in Mount Carroll Illinois is also untrue. The reason we are not open daily to the public is because we train many law enforcement agents who may be working undercover on the war on drugs and terrorism. Their safety is paramount to us. If we were to allow civilians to visit our location at will, it could jeopardize the safety of these brave officers.

Those of you who have taken me up on my offer to call and visit our location can see that we are merely giving a much needed facelift to a twenty-five year old facility. We are proud of the job that the law enforcement officers in this region of the country are doing. We are proud to be part of the team that trains them to be successful, and we are proud of this community for supporting this training center and the mission we are undertaking.

Please feel free to call me with questions and I will do my best to answer them as quickly as possible.

Respectfully,

Patrick Sergott
Director
Blackwater USA North
