    Fairenough is asking how to put it his gear on & how to use it not about training,

    He puts it on at the station or training centre - he does not travel in it until he is trained. If he can't work out how to put on his armour or shirt he is real prime material to be a copper.

    so have you been sworn in yet in front of a magistarate ?, if not you have a long time to go before you will hit the streets, when you do you will hopefully enjoy it very much, it is very rewarding

    FOR C_RONALDO

    YOU CAN NEVER HAVE ENOUGH INFO THO CAN U, PLUS I DIDNT THINK EXPLAINING HOW TO PUT ON BODY ARMOUR WAS WHAT HE NEEDED, ITE SOUNDS AS IF PUTTING ARMOUR ON IS THE LAST THING HE NEEDS TO KNOW. A HELPFUL INSIGHT.....I THOUGHT FOR SOMEONE WHO APPEARS TO KNOW VERY LITTLE. icon9.gif
    :confused:You have to know what the problem is before you can solve it:confused:

    My Understanding Of Policing Is That It Is A Difficult And Trying Job!
    How Many Specials Would Like Regular Police Officers To Attend At Their Places Of Work Offering To Do Thier Jobs For Free? I'm Sure The Specials Would Not Like It. Their Employers Might Though, Lots Of Free Labour, No Need To Pay Overtime Then Is There!
