I would like to say Thankyou to the Troopers who escorted 2/25 Fox Company into Scotia Glenville Airport today for the marines as well as my cousin. Thanks again and welcome home 2/25

FTO Schedule

Question for the Troopers...what is a typical work week schedule when a recruit starts on the job with an FTO?

I noticed on the website it shows the current schedule for Troopers 5 days on, 2 off, and then 2 days on, 5 off. Is this the same for when a recruit gets out of the academy or is after probation with the FTO?

Thanks !

I think we are waiting to see if we are laying off nearly 400 Troops before we hire new ones.

I bought a radar detector, put RSTFA ((retired state trooper fraternal assoc)) sticker on front windshield, carry several PBA cards) you "never know"...but still drive in the left lane trying to keep it under 10 mph, over the posted.

follow up

an update for those in the same boat as myself...rec'd a call today from my BI asking for an update and scheduled a follow up interview. I was told they need to get the info within the next couple weeks back up to Albany... hopefully a good sign that things are moving in the right direction and the state is adding people not removing them.. fingers crossed.
