It's not a fantasy - I don't speak from direct experience, but I've
watched a couple of people try and have varied success.

First tip - try to be under 40 years of age. Many of the jobs in the
U.S. are in the public sector, specifically LE, and getting hired
after 40 as a LEO is difficult at best.
