Mike graduated last week and I am just now getting around to posting the one picture that turned out.
The academy took five and a half months to complete...including rigorous physical training, firearms training, 15 exams and hours and hours of other instruction. Many times he came home barely able to move, because apparently Sgt. Cooper, the PT instructor, is known as "The Machine" and worked them very hard. He rarely watched TV the last few months...instead his free time (yeah right!) was filled with studying, since you can only fail one exam. He ended up with a 3.0 GPA for the academy. WOOT!
It was lots of hard work and long days, but it's paid off! Now he just needs to find a job!

Congratulations Class BLE0508!!
