Welcome to the Classes category. This section is for police academy classes, recruit groups, graduation photos, class rosters, training records, and discussions about officers who served together during a particular academy class or training period. These records are especially useful for identifying people in group photographs and connecting officers across different parts of the archive.
If you post about a class, please include the class number, year, graduation date, names, or any known instructors if available. Even partial information can be useful. A photo with only a few identified people may eventually lead to a complete class roster as others contribute what they know.
This category is also a good place for former officers, family members, and researchers to share memories about academy training, class traditions, instructors, and early department careers. The goal is to connect names, faces, and stories so these groups are not lost as time passes.
