Product Description
Many people ask Troopers, "How can you do such a dangerous job?" They cannot understand the dedication and commitment that most troopers possess for their profession. Going Home is the only book written totally from an insider's prospective based on first hand experiences while at the rigorous military-style training academy and on the job as a member of the North Carolina State Highway Patrol. It details the sacrifices, emotions, and lessons learned from the first day of basic training throughout the career of a North Carolina State Trooper. The stories consist of dealings with the men, the women, the fatalities, and other strange encounters, and just as the title implies, it is about dealing with these situations with the goal in mind of "going home" at the end of the work shift.
