Prospective PA Trooper
Hello all. Really love this site! I have been learning quite alot from members' experiences. I have worked in the retail auto business for seven years but am considering a career change into LE. Two years ago I revamped my nutrition and began an intensive fitness program. I focused on the performing at the academy graduation fitness standards. I hear they have some great big hill and a three mile run involving that at the academy in Hershey, so I have been emphesizing the running. I might be in my thirties, but will give it my 110%. This past year I have been gathering as much information from other LEs and researched the PA state police. I have read Jim Geeting's The Badge:Thoughts from a State Trooper, and Officer Down. Although a bit old, these two books helped to give me an insight into this world. I really appreciate the sacrifices LEs make to balance their family roles with this career. I am single, but know that a hectic schedule can really challenge relationships and potentially isolate a person. I would appreciate anyone's advice concerning the PASP.
