Today, the FBI is struggling to evolve from a national police force focused on solving crimes after they occur into an intelligence agency working to thwart terrorists attacks before they can happen on U.S. soil. FBI recruits train to subdue a person after being sprayed with pepper spray at the FBI Academy in Quantico, Virginia. For many, it is the worst day of training.
