FOR THOSE OF YOU WHO KNOW, AND THOSE OF YOU WHO WERE NOT AWARE, I HAVE BEEN AN APPROVED INSTRUCTOR FOR THE RPO, (RETIRED POLICE OFFICER) PROGRAM, HERE IN N.J. FOR THE PAST 11 YEARS. I WAS APPROVED BY THE N.J.S.P AND I HAVE RECENTLY BEEN APPROVED BY THE P.A.S.P. TO PROVIDE THE SAME TRAINING FOR THE PA. RPO'S. I HAVE BEEN ASKED BY A VERY CLOSE FRIEND OF MINE, MR. PHIL BROWN, RETIRED SPECIAL AGENT, FBI TO JOIN HIM IN PROVIDING THE SAME TYPE OF TRAINING FOR ANY RPO THAT HAS RETIRED IN PA. THE TRAINING IS BEING PROVIDED SO THAT THE PA. RPO WILL BE IN CONJUNCTION, WITH STATE LAW, IN ORDER TO CARRY IN ALL 50 STATES, UNDER THE FEDERAL STATUE HR218. I WILL BE POSTING MORE INFORMATION AS SOON AS I CAN FINALIZE THE DETAILS IN REGARDS TO WHAT RANGES WILL BE USED AND DAYS AND COST OF THE TRAINING.
