I almost forgot to tell you! Last Thursday on Dec. 20th I was sworn in as a full time police officer again!!
I passed the written state exam and will be starting back on the street with a training officer on January 16!!!!
It was on Dec. 30th 2005 that I was injured so I’m coming up on my two year anniversary. What a wonderful Christmas present God has given me this year.
No, it’s the same department. I left there in 2004 and was injured in 2005. The chief is a man of his word and has put me back on patrol, at least for now. I will probably wind up with a “desk” job eventually, but that could mean anything from detective to the gang intelligence unit, so I really can’t complain.
Wow, great news NC Cop! Congratulations! You are an inspiration for us all. Merry Christmas to everyone, that’s a great Christmas gift, you got your job back, and the police got back an excellent officer. That’s the best holiday story I’ve heard yet!
Terrific news, NC Cop! Few people have had to overcome the obstacles you have and have done it so well. Like Sev said, you’re an inspiration to everyone. Congratulations!!
And best wishes to a merry and blessed Christmas season to everyone here!!
Merry Christmas one and All! Tomorrow, I venture into enemy territory, and eat and drink with friends and relatives I haven’t seen for a year, but I have great expectations that it will all be a happy afternoon. God Bless us each each and every one, and last but never least, the creator of this website, Sister T!
Thought I would post this story. It’s about a heartwarming story of a GI in Iraq who adopted a little boy with cerebral palsy, and YES, it made me cry! It’s another example of not only the kind of people we have in our armed forces, but in our country in general.
Did you lose all your seniority? I would hope the Chief makes better use of you than the Department did before you went to Iraq.
Actually I was brought back at my same rank and same pay as when I left. I may also apply for an opening in the department’s recruiting unit, that’s something I would really love to do.
It is painful to watch her trying to act human and it would be even more painful to see the Clintons back in the White House that they disgraced in so many ways.
Amen!! It is painful to watch Hillary Clinton trying to be human. It is also painful to watch Hillary’s Mom lie about her. I get a headache just thinking about President Hillary. – Lorica
Clinton’s “don’t ask” policy
As she races through Iowa in the days before next week’s caucuses, Hillary Clinton is taking few chances. She tells crowds that it’s their turn to “pick a president,” but over the last two days she has not invited them to ask her any questions.
Before the brief Christmas break, the New York senator had been setting aside time after campaign speeches to hear from the audience. Now when she’s done speaking, her theme songs blare from loudspeakers, preventing any kind of public Q&A.
She was no more inviting when a television reporter approached her after a rally on Thursday and asked if she was “moved” by Benazir Bhutto’s assassination. Clinton turned away without answering.
Her daughter, Chelsea, had the same reaction when a reporter approached her with a question.
Hillary Clinton’s no-question policy didn’t sit well with some of the Iowans who came to see her speak.
“I was a little bit underwhelmed,” said Doug Rohde, 46, as he left her a rally in a fire station in Denison. “The message was very generic — and no questions.”
Clinton campaign officials said that she may take questions in the coming days. But her focus is on seeing as many voters as possible before the caucuses next Thursday — and spotlighting the messages she wants to deliver.
Spokespeople for her two main rivals in the Hawkeye State -– John Edwards and Barack Obama -– said the candidates would continue fielding questions as they troll for support.

These people are such liars. “her focus is on seeing as many voters”?? Or is it on having many voters see her?? These people are so full of BS that they should be growing horns. – Lorica

NC Cop,
That is great news! Congratulations. Is this with the department you left to go to Iraq or another one?
Outstanding, NC Cop.
Have a blessed Christmas, everybody.

Congrats NC!
If you end up as Detective, are you going to change to NC Detective? That kinda has a cool ring to it.
Awesome my friend, absolutely outstanding NC! My best to you and yours , not to mention your Chief. You are an inspiration to us all.
Have a great Christmas one and all!
One of the smoothest inbound flights ever GWR, nothing so much as a bump until we were right over the left coast.
Sev, let us know if you get a chance to read and file a report what you discover in Hoffers book.
NC Cop,

Congratulations on getting back to work NC.

Merry Christmas to everyone here, and congratulations to NC Cop! The guy who puts the “Kick Ass and Take Names” back into “cop!”
Well, I mean, uh…

My God NC that is just an incredible story. Who says our troops aren’t the very best in the world. – Lorica

NC Cop, This is great news.
Maybe our Hostess would be kind enoght to prevail upon NC Cop to publish the whole story in one post and call it the “New Cop’s Christmas”.
NC, you RULE! Congrats! *doin’ the happy dance*
NC, my brother is a cop. Both of you are heroes.
