From a Navy SEAL to SWAT officer?


Usually in order to become a SWAT officer one must first serve several years as a patrol officer. Is that rule also applied for former military personnel with strong Special Forces background? For example, the in movie SWAT, Street (Farrell) was a former Navy SEAL. Is it resonable that Street will serve 5 years as a patrol officer before applying to the LAPD SWAT? Can he have joined the LAPD SWAT directly or shortly after graduating from the police academy?
