Hey Josh. Everything is special when you are a police officer. I've been in Law Enforcement for 32 years and I can say without reservation, I wouldn't want to do anything else. You never know what the next call or traffic stop will bring, but you are trained and ready for anything. You can go from directing traffic to being the first responder to a homicide. And you are never alone. Your fellow officers are there to back you up should you ever need help, just as you would be there to back them up. One night another officer and I got into a fight trying to arrest a very large suspect. We could barely key up the radio to ask for backup, but the other officers heard what was going on and knew we needed help. Within minutes, there was a steady stream of blue uniforms flying through the door. The suspect was in custody and no one got hurt. It's a brotherhood like no other. If you like helping people, this job is very rewarding.

Hi Josh. My name is Officer Rexroad and I am in my 30th year of being a police officer. It’s an incredible job that will give you an opportunity to truly impact the lives of those around you. You will be able to protect those that are being victimized, you will be put in positions to save the lives of those that depend on you, and you will make a difference in the lives of many without even knowing you have done so. No other job will allow you the immediate first hand involvement in helping change the lives of those in need. There are negatives to this job as well, but they are minimal in comparison to the good you can do. Drop me an email if you have a specific question. I’d be happy to speak with you.
