Police as we know them today in the United States are the result of a few hundred years of convoluted evolution. Asking who was the first human Policeman would be a tricky question too. We're talking about comparing Las Vegas Metro with Indian look-outs in colonial New England.

Will Rambeau Moderator Reg: 01-25-2003 Posts: 5983 Loc: Idaho Offline	I know the Military part better - there were dogs attached to the American Expeditionary Force during WWI documented in: Cahill, Howard F. "Animals in the A.E.F., World War I." Typescript, Hist Sec AWC. D639A65 Maybe if Old Earth Dog Scott pops in, he can tell us how dogs were used during the War Between the States......
