Wardens are Matt Remezane, left, Ted Holladay (the suspeci) and Jack Wilson. —Fish and Game Photo Marksmanship Training Program While informal pistol shoots among wardens have been held for many years, a pistol marksmanship train- ing program was not initiated until the beginning of the biennium. The uniform regulations specify that wardens shall equip themselves with a .38 caliber revolver. With the increase of population, more major crimes are being committed over a wider area than ever before. Wardens' vehicles are equipped with two-way radios and in many localities they have direct communication with the county sheriff's office. As a result, wardens are often called upon to assist other law enforcement agencies in the apprehension of persons who had com- mitted felonious crimes. The department believes that if its enforcement personnel have occasion to enter a dangerous situation, knowingly or in the normal course of checking armed hunters or apprehending armed game law violators, the wardens should then have adequate pistol training to defend themselves properly and take command of a situation if attacked. In the first year of the program, 100 rounds of .38 caliber ammunition were purchased for each member of the force. Prior to this time pistol practice shoots were held irregularly with wardens furnishing their own ammunition. Early in the 1957-58 Fiscal Year, the ammunition allotment was increased to 300 rounds per man, with the requirement that at least six 30-round Camp Perry type course scores be fired during the year. Wardens were encouraged to use the remaining ammunition for additional target
