Product Description

Section 1: Humor on the Job

In this section, I combine humorous incidences that have happened to me, officers around me, as well as, police reports filed by citizens in Indianapolis.

Section 2: Humor and the police officers family

A police officer’s family members are exposed to the every day pressures that confront the officer. In this section, I describe some of the creative ways my family has found to get and keep my attention.

Section 3: Humor on the road

As a national lecturer and author of law enforcement textbooks, I have been forced to travel extensively. Being very analytical, I seem to notice things that most others fail to see. This section consists of my observations and the situations that I have endured when dealing with air travel and hotel living.

5.0 out of 5 stars 20 Years behind the badge, August 21, 2001

By	Richard (Indianapolis, Indiana home of IPD) - See all my reviews

A special look "inside" the life of a law enforcement officer! Kevin helps us see what happens to both the officer and his family after 20 years behind the badge. This is an excellent mixture of "real" life stories and radio calls that Kevin experienced while being an Officer with IPD. This is a must read for every "police" family and for those who can enjoy both the sadness and humor of being in law enforcement. Kevin continues to teach law enforcement classes even though he has now retired. An excellent author and a wonderful Instuctor has taken his time to share these "events" with us all. Once you start the book, you won't want to put it down! Buy it now, read it, and then share it with friends. Every time you read it you will find out more and more about being a "cop." I'm on my thrid reading and I still laugh at every page! I find something new every time I read it! Keep up the good work Kevin and my sympathy to your family!
