Following the badge-pinning ceremony, Governor Bobby Jindal will conduct the oath of office to the newly badged Troopers in the Senate chambers of the Capitol. Sixty-one cadets from across the state began the rigorous Training Academy on January 12th of this year. Cadets trained in areas such as crash investigation, emergency vehicle operations, DWI detection, traffic incident management, and leadership. Forty-six of those cadets will graduate to become Troopers and take their official oath of office as they begin their careers of dedication, protection and service to the citizens of Louisiana. “I am extremely honored to present our newest graduating class of Louisiana State Troopers,” said Colonel Mike Edmonson, State Police Superintendent. “The badge they will receive is not a given right but a privilege earned and granted to them by the citizens of Louisiana. These men and women will be sent out across our state to protect life and serve their communities as uniform patrol troopers.
