Training Day Videos

Walking into the pain.....



Washing up


And last but not least.....Riding the lightning.
Not so fun to watch as a Mom, but now he can say he has done both.




The Police Sergeant is the one in the back waiting for someone to scream...I guess that is a true tase. Then everyone realized wait a minute......he is not moving. Matthew doesn't remember anything after the pop..Then he blacked out. Scary.

Then they have to take those probes out of your back. It took three tries to get the top one out of his skin. Yikes!!! OK not sure I will watch this again, but for your enjoyment and Matthew wanted to share....

Matthew has been in training since January for Clatsop County Reserve Police Academy. He is done now and is off to more training. This time in Wild Land Firefighting. He is young and wants to travel around and experience many different places. He thought of back packing around, but then decided it would be way more fun to be out in the woods and get paid for it.

We wish him the best of luck and are prayers will be with him. Stay Safe Matthew. We can't wait to hear all about your adventures.
