Thank You UNA for (The

Thank You Joseph Huston and Others With Question's
on Our MANTRACKING Programs in 2008
Yes, we do have a spring advanced
tracking class set for May the 3rd, "Saturday" from 8-5pm, in Tatum,
TX. At the Tatum Police Department, they are planning a hog roast with all the
trimmings. This class is accredited through East Texas Police Academy in
Kilgore, TX. And there will be eight ( 8 ) TCLEOSE credit hours for
Officers in the State of Texas. Please contact the main office
(903)983-8663 or register via
e-mail through the ETPA website at www.easttexaspoliceacademy.org.
- the tuition for the class is $10
Our objectives will
be to teach in detail the effect that ants and other insects have on the
forensics of a track that is time dated. We will also be examining three mock
graves that will be dug up by wild animals; hogs, coyotes, etc. Five to six days
prior to the tracking date we will have buried frozen chickens in human
clothing. In prior advanced classes this has proved to be very effective in
helping to identify a shallow grave in East Texas where we have literally
thousands of wild hogs and quite often the evidence is completely eaten or
carried off and buried in another location by animals. I have found in the past
when looking for evidence that many mounted search and rescue personnel simply
ride past a depression in the ground or around a lake and mark it off as just
another hog wallow. We will also be examining children tracks and the stories
those tracks will tell. We will have experts on hand with their equipment and
animals to discuss horseback tracking and packing, K-9 specialists, underwater
sonar specialists, heat seeking airborne equipment specialists and GPS
specialists. As an instructor for these TCLEOSE classes, and a tracker of
40 Years, I will do my best to teach Law Officers and others attending these
courses how to find our "old" when they've wandered away,
And our "babies" when they've been carried
away. And those intent in violating our good America and her
freedoms.
