  • 'School of the Trooper' Fills New U.S. Army Europe Stryker Soldier with Information, Pride
    RELEASE #2007-12-04-02 Dec. 4, 2007 ‘SCHOOL OF THE TROOPER’ FILLS NEW U.S. ARMY EUROPE STRYKER SOLDIER WITH INFORMATION, PRIDE By Sgt. Mark B. Matthews 27th Public Affairs Detachment CAMP LIBERTY, Iraq -- A new Soldier arrives with bags in hand and waits patiently for a representative from his unit come integrate him into a new unit and a new home away from home here. Hours go by and he begins to wonder if anyone even knows he's here. The doubtful first impression of a unit left in the mind of such a Soldier is one U.S. Army Europe's 2nd Stryker Cavalry Regiment -- an organization with a history of welcoming Soldiers with open arms -- works hard to avoid. The 2nd SCR “Dragoons” take pride in a long- standing tradition known as the “School of the Trooper” aimed at properly greeting and integrating new Soldiers. The program dates back more than 170 years -- to 1836 -- and continues in Iraq. “Once (new Soldiers) get here everyone is a ‘Dragoon,’” said Lt. Col. Bryan Denny, 2nd SCR deputy commander. “This is just our way of integrating new troops into the regiment. SGT 1ST CLASS KAP KIM While the Soldiers come from different places -- Spc.

  • Law Enforcement Officer Career Path Proposed November 13, 2018
    South Carolina Department of Public Safety Law Enforcement Officer Career Path Proposed November 13, 2018 As SCDPS strives to ensure the safety of South Carolina citizens and visitors, its law enforcement personnel resources are diminishing in terms of trained, experienced troopers and officers accepting more lucrative offers from the private sector and other federal, state, and local law enforcement agencies. While the Department has made great strides in retaining law enforcement officers, its best efforts have resulted in merely attempting to maintain its workforce rather than growing it. Each time the department loses a seasoned trooper or officer, it loses years of quantifiable experience, and tens of thousands of dollars in training. The department, state government, and South Carolina citizens all benefit from retention and maintenance of SCDPS’ current qualified and well-trained law enforcement officers. It is important to place as many troopers and officers as possible on South Carolina roadways and other assigned locations; however, it is even more significant for these troopers and officers to be competent, experienced, and knowledgeable. It is the priority of the South Carolina Department of Public Safety (SCDPS, Department, or DPS) to retain its current knowledge and experience base by providing a career path and retention plan for its law enforcement officers. In 2004, the South Carolina Highway Patrol proposed its 2004 budget to the governor with a priority of funding the “Highway Patrol Pay Realignment Plan.” The plan would have re-aligned salaries throughout all ranks and provided a career path for supervisors and non-supervisors. However instead of realigning salaries, the final budget contained a 3% across-the-board increase for all state employees and a legislative mandate requiring the (then) Budget and Control Board to convene a study of the southeastern average pay for all law enforcement officers.
