Military reserves

[gnome686]

Can anyone tell me how their departments handle military reservist during thier weekend drill dates?

Most local departments will work with you. KCSO definitely does. You can easily work your schedule for drill weekend. The FBI and some other Feds force their agents to quit the active reserves, but I've never heard of that with any local agencies.

I wouldn't plan on drilling during the academy however. Doable, but painful considering how much weekends mean to a BLEA recruit.

Good point about the academy. Thats not a problem though. My department hasn't had a reserve several years and dosn't have a policy for it, so I'm trying to find some gound work for one.
