The Queensland Police Service has welcomed twelve new officers as they begin their first year as constables in the Logan District.
The new officers were part of a cohort of 53 recruits who were inducted into the Queensland Police Service at the Oxley academy last Thursday. The 12 new first year constables were put through their orientation on Monday.
Officer in Charge of Crestmead Station Senior Sergeant Warren Parker (pictured far right) welcomed three of the new officers who all happen to originate from the United Kingdom, including Constable Chris Bartley (pictured far left) who spent 15 years as a Commando with the Royal Marines.
The twelve join nine other FYCs allocated to the Gold Coast District in bolstering the South Eastern Region by 21 new officers. The new first year constables will be initially deployed to the following areas:
Logan Central Station; 3
Crestmead Station; 3
Beaudesert Station; 1
Loganholme Station; 1
Browns Plains Station; 2
Jimboomba Station; 2
