LITTLE FALLS, MN – Dozens of men and women headed to Camp Ripley this week to begin their training to become Minnesota State Patrol troopers.
This academy kicked off Sunday with 57 cadets.
The group has spent the week getting accustomed to rigorous and event-filled days that begin at 6 a.m. and end with lights out at 10 p.m. The cadets have been learning to march, how to prepare for uniform and room inspections, and how to operate their computers.
