Miller Completes Training

Published Wednesday, March 31, 1999 in the Nevada County Picayune

Deputy Larry Miller of the Nevada County Sheriff's Office was one of 100 officers who participated in basic police training class 99-A at the Arkansas Law Enforcement Training Academy in East Camden recently.

The 12-week, 480-hour course, which began January 3, included instruction in standard police tactics, firearms, legal, educational, technical skills, and practical exercises.

In each course, emphasis is placed upon the officers achieving excellence in both academic subjects and firearms training. An officer must maintain an academic score of at least 70% on each examination, and consistently fire at least 80% during firearms training exercises to successfully complete all phases of the course.

Graduation ceremonies were conducted Friday, March 26, at 10 a.m. at the Southern Arkansas University Technical College gymnasium in East Camden.

Miller lives on Route One, Rosston. He is a 1981 graduate of Willisville High School.

He and his wife Janet have two children, Sylvia, 16, and Lucas, five.
