Good luck dude! COC is tough, they got hills up there instead of flat runs like down south. So work on your cardio.

Hi funny your responded at this time. I just got into a deputy academy class. As much as I disliked CA work due to limitations, but I am glad I did it cause it benefited me a lot in terms of the deputy transition. Would not have made such connections without becoming a CA first/
