Trust me A-4, when I was in the field GPS wasn't invented yet and we didn't have body armor, portable radios, cages in the cars, pepper spray, expandable batons or computers/internet connection. All we had was and old low band radio, .357 magnum revolver with dump pouches for spare ammo, shotgun (which had to be unloaded and cased in the trunk) and a 36' hickory riot baton...rofl. Ahhhh, the good old days! Now days I depend on good old paper maps and GPS!
