First. Congrats!
Second, I agree with above. If you can succeed in integrating the force as part of the community, you have won.
Police officers help us. We need everyone to understand and believe this.
Third. the other side, policing is hard, difficult work. It reinforces stereotypes.
My uncle is a retired officer and policing turned him into a bigot and a jerk. He is naturally a pleasant, lntellignt person.
You may have signed up for one f the most difficult roles there is. There are no simple solutions.
Best of f luck. I am rooting for you.
