Cadets Graduate From 66th OHP Academy

61 cadets graduated on Thursday as part of the 66th Oklahoma Highway Patrol Academy.

The cadets went through 20 weeks of intense training, including de-escalation tactics, use of force and communication skills. Part of the academy was done remotely because of COVID-19 concerns.

The closed graduation ceremony was held Thursday morning in Oklahoma City.

OHP said there are 5 legacies that graduated with the academy. 4 of them have fathers who were or are currently troopers and one of them has both a father and grandfather who were state troopers.
