25 Years
For me, today is 25 years to the day doing this job.

Congrats on the 1/4 century mark! It does indeed go fast.
For the morning will come. Brightly will it shine on the brave and true, kindly upon all who suffer for the cause, glorious upon the tombs of heroes. Thus will shine the dawn.

"It's a great life. You risk your skin catching killers and the juries turn them loose so they can come back and shoot at you again. If your honest , your poor your whole life. And , In the end , you wind up dying all alone on some dirty street. For what? For nothing. For a tin star."
Far from being a handicap to command, compassion is the measure of it. For unless one values the lives of his soldiers and is tormented by their ordeals , he is unfit to command.

Police Officers put themselves at risk for strangers every day. Some do not make it home to their families. Next time you think of saying something negative about the police, remember...YOU are one of the strangers.

You've done your duty, now RETIRE. Life is far too short. Retirement goes fast as well.
As today's police officers you are not unlike your counterparts of years past. You are an elite group of select members, a brotherhood of highly trained professionals, who are called upon to protect your community in a time of need. Guardians for safety. Being a police officer is not for the faint of heart. You must be honest, trustworthy and fearless in the face of evil. You are being watched everyday. Represent yourself, your department and the shield, for it should always be the embodiment of all that is good and justly. You are the thin blue line. Be proud, be tough and be safe.

Hell I think my almost 8 years has gone by WAY too fast. I can't imagine what it will feel like when I hit 25.

We called that milestone "F**k You Day". It was a fast 25 yrs for me too. I left with 27 years combined state and county. Guess time flies when you are doing something you like. Congrats, and welcome to the old farts club.
