Police defense in Lahr: 377 new faces for our security!

In Lahr, almost 400 young police officers were ceremoniously sworn in last Wednesday. The ceremony took place in the multi -purpose hall of the citizens' park, since the premises in the Kietersheim training facility were not sufficient. 377 prospective police officers, including 194 men and 143 women, received their oath, which underlines the importance and growth of police training in the region, such as Bo.de. Government director Michael Hartmann praised the services of the trainees who have been prepared for their middle and upscale service in recent months. In his speech, State Police Director Norbert Schneider emphasized the need for critical thinkers in the police and explained: "The sharpest weapon is the word".

As part of the event, every new police officer was given a compass, symbolically for the instructions and orientation that you can expect in your new profession. The solemn act ended with the national anthem, accompanied by the State Police Orchestra. In the meantime, 315 young people were sworn in in a ceremonial ceremony in Hamburg, among them 78 candidates for commissioners and several "country changers", as reported . The age group of candidates ranges from 17 to 62 years, many come to the police with already completed training or courses from various professional fields.

Such events not only show the variety of new forces, but also underline the decisive role of the police in society. With the oath, the candidates face new challenges and undertake to protect the principles of human dignity and proportionality.
