That said, the great state of Maryland is wholly proactive and accomodating regarding qualification of state residents. Residents is important. If you are a resident of the state you can be qualified for LEOSA purposes even if your LE orgainization did not choose to qualify you pursuant to the provisions of LEOSA.

I am happy to be a resident of Maryland and affected by enlightened leadership as evidenced by the acceptance and recognition of LEOSA. FYI, I retired in 2005 and have qualified five (5) times.

Be safe.
