Hi,
Happened upon this site a while back and have used it (mainly the Ask-a Cop) section to entertain myself and gain insight on various topics.
Made the jump to an actual member vs. lurker.
Just a late thirties guy with questions and looking for advice from time to time. Love camping/hiking/backpacking and have managed to raise a couple kids (all credit should go to my wife) that are gearing up to leave the nest soon enough.
Beginning to look at other career choices that may fall in line with civil service and police work. I will continue to lurk until I have enough information to formulate some basic questions.
Thanks for your time!

Welcome to RP from the desert Southwest. It'll be 89* here, today. Might have to sit outside with an umbrella drink!
Probably pretty cold up there in Ohio...
Of every one hundred men, ten should not even be here. Eighty are nothing but targets. Nine are real fighters, and we are lucky to have them, for they make the battle. Ah, but the One... One of them is a Warrior... He will bring the others back.

Welcome from Germany
Evenhand (Cop Movie): You can't be everybody's friend
There are two things I'm good in, the second is arresting people
I'm looking for Drug/Narcotic Unit patches together with DUI/DWI unit patches for a frame in our Anti-Drug-Team bureau
Also looking for Massachusetts Police and US Capitol City PD patches now!

Welcome to RP. :D

Somehow though I would like to think that now, more than ever a technical background may be helpful in certain types of Police work.
