What sort of graduation gift?
I can't believe I am at a loss, but I am. My wife is graduating from the academy on December 9, and I can't think of what to buy her for a graduation gift.
I'm thinking it will be something cop related, but what? I'm thinking a nice flashlight, but I don't know.
Any ideas?The truth is you're the weak, and I am the tyranny of evil men.
But I'm tryin' Ringo.
I'm tryin'...real hard...to be the shepherd.

A St. Michael's (patron saint of Police Officers) necklace is nice.
My dad, I miss him every day.

Some pink fuzzy handcuffs.
Nah, a good flashlight is a winner, or anything that will be useful on the job.

+2 on St Michael. A backup gun is a nice gift too.

If you are looking at a flashlight maybe look at the new 5.11 ones. They recharge in 90 seconds. Baumshoe would be happy to set you up.

My opinion would depend on if you want to give her a personal gift or a professional gift. The ones listed above are great. If not provided by the department maybe some nicely embossed business cards. If allowed by department maybe a special order badge.
A personal gift could be the St Michael medal or a bible (if your lifestyle is conducive to such) monogrammed to her name and rank.Do not war for peace. If you must war, war for justice. For without justice there is no peace. -me

St. Michael
It will be personal and professional. And then she will also melt because you are thinking and praying for her safety
Somebody Please, what the hell is that smell?

The views, opinions, stupid off the cuff comments, mouthy, obnoxious, thoughtless, etc etc etc are not always or even some of the time the belief of my department, so bugger off!

I would suggest a lifetime supporting membership to Officer Resource. This would be something she would be able to have for a lifetime.
You could also get her a head set from the earphoneguy and a flashlight from Baumshoe!
