I intend to do a ride along with OKC, I was waiting to heal from a stupid surgery. I called the recruiting office one before. The only person there was a civilian that could not tell me anything about the academy. I gathered the basic info from the website. I'm just wondering how similar (if at all) it is to military basic training. Marine recruit training = once is enough.
Besides I still have 1 1/2 left on my 6 year contract in the reserves and the one thing the lady at the recruiting office DID say was that there was pretty much no way for me to miss part of Friday classes for drill. Anyway, I dont really know if LE is for me or not. My father retired as a Lt here in Mustang so I have been around it my hole life, and kinda think it is in my blood. Hopefully a couple of shifts riding along will help me decide. Thanks for the responses and stay safe!
