great read txi, thanks for posting. Made me think a little bit more as to why when I tell LEO's keep up the great job after a traffic stop I always get a turn around from them as if saying "are you for real?"

Thanks again to those that do what needs to be done.

Well, I was given a conditional offer today. I still need to do a psychological exam and a polygraph.

If all goes well with those I begin the Police Academy on December 6th.

Thanks Carl. I'll be at NTCOG in Arlington. It's a Regional Academy.

When I get done I'll be working for Coppell.

That's awesome. May I invite you over to realpolice.net. The have a verified section where the officers status is verified by site staff. The verifieds are identified by a little tag by their name, and there is a public section where anyone can ask a question, but only verifieds can answer.

Once you are certified, you can access an area restricted to verified LEO's. It contains tons of great information and discussion. Be sure you send me a PM there if you sign up.

Congrats.KRM45. --Hope you all the sucess. I'm thinking you have a tough
road ahead. I've allways said it takes a speicial person to be a LEO or a
school teacher.

I know this is an old thread, but I just thought I'd let you folks know I took (and passed) my TCLEOSE test yesterday!

We graduate from the Academy next week then start the real learning process.

Congratulations on passing your TCLEOSE exam - lots of pressure is now off of you. Now on to Coppel and your field training - the real fun soon begins!

By the way, is Richard Zavala still the Academy Director at COG?

Thank you.

Yes, Mr. Zavala is still there.

Richard was a Sgt at our department when he retired and went over to COG full-time. I heard he eventually became the director over there. It's been about 10 years since I've seen him. Next time I'm in Arlington I'll have to stop by and say hello.

Again, good luck to you and welcome to the LE family.

WELL CONGRATULATIONS! I know you are glad to get TCLEOSE over and done with. I am going to send you a copy of my DL so you will remember I am one of the ones who prayed you through and I don't want a ticket :lol:
