The American Civil War served as a training ground for future criminals, as demonstrated by Jesse James and his brother Frank, who learned bank robbery tactics through their service in Quantrill's Raiders, a Confederate guerrilla unit that taught them to raid quickly, operate outside the law, and trust only each other, skills they later applied to their criminal careers after the war ended in 1865.

Jesse James Learned Bank Robbery Skills in the Civil War #viralAdded:
Did you know that Jesse James learned how to rob banks during the Civil War?
At just 16, Jesse and his brother Frank joined Quantrill's Raiders, a brutal Confederate guerrilla unit. [music] They perfected lightning-fast raids on Union towns, hitting banks and disappearing into the countryside. The Raiders taught them to live outside the law, strike without warning, and trust no one but each other. When the war ended in 1865, most soldiers went home, but the James brothers kept using their wartime skills. They just switched targets from Union banks to every bank they could find.
