Adair Countians playing a big role in the Kentucky State Police Michael Sullivan writes with pride about the extraordinary training these young people undertake, about his family's role in the organization, and about Adair Countians part and presence in the elite law enforcement organization Click on headline for full story plus photo(s) By Michael Sullivan It is a rare opportunity for father and son to be able to serve in the Kentucky State Police at the exact time, but that's what Detective Bobby Sullivan and his step son, Chase Willis are doing now, following Chase's graduation Sunday from the Kentucky State Police Academy. It was a big Adair County Day, Sunday, with three of the 60 graduates from Adair County. Graduating with Chase were fellow Columbians Jeremy Giles and Nicholas Hale. Chase is assigned to KSP Post 16 in Henderson. Trooper Giles and Trooper Hale were both assigned to KSP Post 9 in Pikeville. These young men completed 23 weeks of some of the most grueling physical training for police officers anywhere in the United States. A normal day, from what we've heard, is running 5-12 miles, having grass drills at 1am in the morning, being tazed multiple times, being pepper sprayed, and gassed. Many simply can't, or won't make it through the training. In the class these three young men were in, they lost 10 cadets in the first 2 hours. Before the first day was complete, they had lost 20 cadets. Before 3 weeks were completed, they had lost 22. Sixty new officers, slightly less than three-fourths of those who started the rigorous training, are now part of the elite Kentucky Sate Police. Columbia/Adair County can be so very proud of the role being played by so many of the our finest young people in the Kentucky State Police, and of the fine organization protecting such a wide area of Kentucky. So I would like to say to all who made it: Congratulations. We are very proud of you and we thank you for your future service to the state of Kentucky. -MICHAEL SULLIVAN This story was posted on 2011-11-02 20:07:30
