NWI Law Enforcement Academy Honors Volunteers

Sergeants John Kuehl, Michael Krawczyk and Chief David Lain were recently honored by the Northwest Indiana Law Enforcement Academy for volunteering 24 hours or more of instruction for the academy.

Sgt. Kuehl instructs emergency vehicle operation, Sgt. Krawczyk was a Drill Instructor for the current class of recruits, and Chief Lain instructs the ethics class.

The officers were awarded with travel bags embroidered with the Academy's seal at the annual NILEA banquet at the Radisson in Merrillville on May 6th.

Personnel from numerous other agencies were likewise honored. The Academy relies almost entirely on volunteers to train local law enforcement recruits.
