What is S.W.A.T.?
S.W.A.T. (Special Weapons and Tactics) is a highly trained division of officers who respond to dangerous like:
Barricaded suspects
Hostage rescues
High-risk warrants
Officer panic calls
What kind of things do we do here at S.W.A.T.?
Patrol weeks! (Once every month patrol week happens.
Patrol week is when we put down all the gear and help out the community like a patrol officer does.
This may include, basic calls, and helping out officer's when they need it. )
S.W.A.T. Drills! (SWAT drills exist so that SWAT officers can hone their skills,
work on their skills, see what they are lacking in, see on how they can improve, and see how they can be better.
SWAT officers can take part in having gunfights with each other,
practicing hostage scenes, practicing raids, practicing breaching, and practicing on any certifications they may have obtained. )
We don’t just show up — we protect, respond, and take care of the problem.
We’ve got each other’s backs. We’re a family. And now, we're looking to grow.
