- Undercover police? No, not really. More like plain clothes officer. Color of the day? nah... We don't need no color of day. Duty belt? not for this EDC.

"Supervising someone who appears to be actively trying to kill me..." Hah, I can definitely relat to that, and to the amount of physical & emotional energy that training requires. Great video!
I do armored trucks, I'm baffled at how common it is for new guys to tailgate other drivers with our trucks. Like bro, back off, you're not going to be racing anyone in a 25,000lb armored truck. When someone crashes into us, they walk away with bruises. When we crash into someone, they fucking die. Slow down and stop tailgating.
Same here lmao😂😂
@alliwantisfinancialstabili7414 the most stressful part for me was learning the different ATM systems - specifically the ones that are loaded from the front in very crowded areas. Like how can I watch the people around us if I'm trying to figure out how to login and where the receipt rolls go in?
The fork on the vest is hilarious. I work narcotics in a big city in Europe. We dress like the suspects; hoodies, sweatpants, blue jeans, tracksuits and baseball caps of bucket hats. Don't forget the fake gold chain. We get stopped by uniform officers often. And dealers think we're junkies. Look like a junkie not like a cop, thats the goal. We carry no gear: just a radio, handcuffs and a pistol. A kevlar vest is easy to spot even under a hoody, so that stays in the car. Suspects with a gun are very rare. Knives are more common and cars are most dangerous. Living life on the edge and the thrill of the hunt I guess.
Farthest thing from incognito I’ve ever seen in my life 😂
My department won’t let us dress down while we are shadowing. So I always usually show up a minute or two after my trainee and stand outside to eavesdrop or stand at the back. If people try to talk to me I say “I don’t know, I just got here. You should talk to that officer.”
Hey Tommy! - Last you heard from me, I was in security. I was a field supervisor. - Now, I will be working corrections!! In my third week of training. I’ve not run away yet, and the uniformed staff are awesome. I hope I can work here a while, and move up as things go along.
Totally agree that training people takes so much emotional and mental energy out of you, on top of an already really social and stressful job. I work security right now and I'm constantly training new people, if they in fact actually show up which is a rarity. The difference with training in security compared to training a new cop is that new cops typically can write and speak English pretty well, and drive a car properly. Not the case with security unfortunately, so i tend to end up being, an English teacher and navigator on top of actually teaching the do's and don'ts of the job. The candidates simply aren't, most of the time, the caliber of people that make it into police work. I've supervised in security for several years and being the brains for an entire group of people at times is so taxing and the sheer aww of the ridiculousness that transpires in security is even more taxing. Gladly i won't be in security for much longer because I'm finally in a position to start applying to departments in my state (finally passed the PT test) and I'm in a couple of other hiring processes out of state currently too. The challenge right now is deciding which department I want to go to😬🤦 I've got lots of tough decisions to make regarding choosing which of my options is going to be best for me to go work 25+ years at. But I'm excited to see what transpires in the next few months. Nice to see you sir! Stay safe out there! 🙂I
We all really miss you tommy and we all can't wait until you are back on RUclips making your great videos!! We all know your very busy right now but still we can't help too wish you would make some more videos for all of us to watch and enjoy!! So until we see you again! God bless you and your family and be safe out there in the jungle!!
Hey Tommy FFT! I started watching your videos when I was applying to be a cop in 2017. Got hired 2018 and as of this year I’m now an FTO! So far I’ve only assisted training a few days with a lateral hire. I always appreciate your videos and advice, it has helped a lot over the years. Stay safe out there brother!
It's always good to see you upload, especially after a while without an upload. Stay safe and warm out there!
Tommy. Love your channel. Would love to see more videos on how to handle various calls and patrol tactics. Stay safe out there bro.
Love your videos! You helped me pick out my baton for my security job. Would love to see a video on reviewing body cameras.
I teach people how to use a software platform. That's hard enough. I can only imagine how much harder it is to teach someone in potentially life-and-death situations. God bless you, Tommy!
Thank You FFT for Your Service and being Amazing Police Officer and for sharing Great Police Security Video Content have blessed day/night
Love your videos brother, helped me alot with my career so far !
lol wasn't expecting that cannon in your trousers
I like your set up for shadow phase. This channel inspired me to become an FTO at my department. I agree with your flashlight comment as well haha.
Does anyone recall Tommy making a video like this a while back? Have been looking for it ages.
Missed your videos, this was a nice treat!
You should try Hunter Constantine IWB belt. It has elastic in the back and stiffness in the front. It’s so comfortable, it’s a game changer.
@ FFT Just food for thought & not dogging the kubaton(I upgraded to the asp defender from Monadnock but I remember when everyone had one & if you took the class it does come in very useful) but something else I carried for court and dressing down ASP makes a great lightweight clip on baton called the Agent & Protector (one push button one, other strike close) depending where worn is where it's carried but in a pocket clip looks like a knife clip. It offers a secondary option, I usually like to have it & not need it vs other.
Also the fork is a great touch but think SOG makes a metal spork ha
Your department's process is way better than the EMS FTO process I experienced in California.
It's time to upgrade that holster to the Phlster FL2
Lol at the fork 🤣
But in all honesty they are the first thing to disappear from a meal room.
You should check out the cloud defensive mch handheld duty light. 80k candela. 18650 would love to see a review
Great job,
Tommy, a video on lateral officer FTO process would be a good topic.
I’ve got four years on in a small agency and I’m looking to leave. For both a bigger agency and another state. I know every state handles certification a bit different, but generally you don’t have to go through a complete academy. And many agencies will do an abbreviated FTO for lateral officers. But I’m not quite sure what that looks like.
What’s your experience with laterals?
Question. I have two sets of cuffs. One can be accessed by both hands on my external carrier, but my second set of cuffs is on my left hip and can really only be accessed by my left hand.
Should I move the second set so it’s accessible or leave it where it’s at since I have a set that’s accessible by both.
Awesome!!! You use the axon body 2 or 3? Also did you guys get the new Taser 7?
Hey, shorter guy here, if I remember correctly you’re also on the shorter side too right? Any chance you’d want to make a video on how that has impacted you professionally (if at all)?
I miss your videos buddy, been following you since the beginning.
I mean this with all my heart and the best of all my intentions, that definitely does not look cool.
Nice VEST. It makes you look like ROBOCOP! Lol. Phase 1, 2, 3, and 4? When I got on my dept. I had 1 FTO! My Sgt. then in my 9th month I road with my Lt. And Captain! That was back in 1994. I wear a black Miami Vice shoulder harness and holster. Cuffs are under my mags.
You should see the vest they make ride-a-longs wear in my city, it's like a XXL, blue level 2 vest from 1990. LOL
You need a jacket with a patch on the back that says JAFO.
Would you ever consider stepping off the streets and teaching at the academy?
I have been searching the internet to purchase a good iPhone holster that I can wear that lays flat against my right shoulder, I prefer it in that position, I like my equipment to rest snug on my body. Many holsters protrude out which I think are dangerous , I don’t want one that looks obvious either I like everything to blend in and I want one with a good protective cover in wet weather. Also what are the best affordable waterproof wristwatches to buy ?😇⭐️🇦🇺
@freefieldtraining I miss the live stream.. I’m at work..
I think the tactical black gear looks incredible. I love all black outfits, I wear all black in winter. It’s looks sexy, cool and stylish.😇⭐️
Plus this is also VERY Common at the Federal Level, since most of their agencies are known to go Undercover like the FBI (Federal Bureau Of Investigation) and DEA (Drug Enforcement Agents) prime example.
Tommy, do you remember making another video like this ages ago. My mate put me on to your channel a while ago and can't find it.
yall Ghost phase in closed to plain clothes? That does not sound super smart lol. I tend to just tell people politely when I'm training a new person "I'm sorry maam, I'm training someone new. Direct all your questions to him please."
pray'n 4 U! it's get'n tough out there👍
Doesn’t Safe Life Defense make FRAS plates? I would want the highest rated plates I could get. You are lucky you can wear your own plates and carriers Honolulu Police can only wear issued armor.
They have a fras vest. Its an actual vest (no plates) needed its rated to stop 5.56, 7.62. I want to get one eventually its about 2,000$ its on their website
Hey Tommy, what is the best way to send you a private message that isn't social media? (I just wanted to message you something kind of work related real quick, that I don't want to be on public forum... but I stay away from Instagram and all that.)
This channel name no spaces at Gmail
Wow. I can spend hours on this guy. Just wow.
The most powerful tool you’ve got are those PENS. If I have to tell you why you probably haven’t been a cop for too long.
I am pretty much undercover security, only thing I am carrying is my duty belt with just my tactical pen and tourniquet with my security license and patch clipped to my belt, so you can't tell till I flip my coat to the side
@Eboni Tucker when you service your community you will be somebody two lol
TactiCool pen
@Eboni Tucker this isn't middle school English class. Grow up
HUGE difference between plainclothes vs undercover..! ! !
15:15 - Once you retired, you do not qualify to post police content anymore. So better go part-time if you want to continue being a content creator.
Lol
@@freefieldtraining Not sure what's funny about that. If I remember correctly, it was you, in a video back in 2017, who rightfully scolded Police1 authors who write about something that they haven't done in 5-10 years, traffic stops specifically was your example.
I can assure you when I retire I won't be making videos or writing articles about doing traffic stops. Far from it.
stay on the force a bit longer before you feel comfortable giving real world tac advice... Maybe study the Dunning-Kruger effect... YW
Your department is (evidently) WAY too liberal with the departments SM policy.
I don't trust any law enforcement not in a full uniform and fully marked vehicle.
you dress like that then I'm not convinced your a valid leo
Worst case, a legit cop should let you call the station and confirm their badge number etc. Assuming no bullets are flying or something.
If he’s an FTO and he’s training and shadowing. He needs to dress like that because he’s supposed to watch them and not assist if he doesn’t have to. I dress like that when I’m shadowing my trainee.
This is other than SWAT & Patrol Officers. Police detectives are still police officers but wear different uniforms & don’t need a marked patrol car for their job. Same applies to other divisions to like drug squad for example. Administrators like the police chief don’t need marked patrol cars to. They’re usually gonna meet with the mayor or do other administrative things & a marked patrol car doesn’t suit their needs very well.
Its funny cause y'all stick out like sore thumbs tryna blend in eith the regulsr population. It's like the nerd kid at school who wluld sag their pants, or tryna recite lyrics to a song the cool kids listen to.
I personally think that if you work for the City, and not working narcotics, gang task force, or any high level criminal task force, you are in uniform. Us tax payers pay for the uniforms, so use them unless its more practical to be covert. You admitted that looking like a jump out boy looks cool. Your (law enforcement) job is to protect and serve. That's why we pay you. We don't pay you to look cool. And this is coming from a former bondsman that has been undercover many times to arrest my skips. We have our office shirts to conduct business in the office, but that wouldn't be practical when we go out to hunt, since our only objective is to turn the fugitive into the jail. A beat cop's job is the general protect and serve. You know how many wanna be cops out there that pull people over? Lots. And if you pull me over and not visibly a legit law enforcement officer, my window is not going down for you, and my legally concealed firearm is within reach. The world has changed, especially in pro gun states. Be aware of that fact in regards to officer safety.
Did you watch the video at all? He's traveling with a fully marked officer in a marked car. He's trying to let the other guy be the face and that's why he's actively trying to not look like a cop. All of this was explained and I feel dumb because in addition to not watching the video, you probably won't read this comment
Hate to break it to you, but cops pay taxes too. They probably pay more than you do in fact. They have experience with the job. You don't. I would take their informed opinion over yours any day of the week.
@Jeff Balson oh no, I watched it. I'm talking about in regards to cops in general working a normal beat, yet trying to look "cool".
@Bad Drivers Of The NorCal Area actually, since I make 6 figures, I automatically pay more in taxes. I literally could buy this dude's life 5× over. And I'm glad I don't have experience as a cop. I've done the job BETTER when it comes to investigating, skip tracing (finding people), and arresting, and downtown Greeley, CO. can attest to that. Long story short: active murder investigation of Eric Maxwell, last year April. I arrested one guy who was in direct correlation of what happened. Put him in jail, went after the next guy. Evans PD was already on scene, 6 deep. We find out the current guy I was after is also associated with the murder. Both of these cats are cartel. We were told to back off cause it was still an active murder case. Respectfully, we did. However, guess who was getting info on the guy's whereabouts? I was. Guess who was being hated for not taking the case seriously? Greeley and Evans PD. I was getting hits left and right from the streets of the dude's whereabouts. The public HATES law enforcement, cause law enforcement have proved over the years that they don't actually give a shit about civilians. I, a bondsman at the time, was being trusted over TWO law enforcement agencies. To cops, this case was just another 12 hour shift. To us? We had 100k riding on this hunt, and that kind of money can really hurt a bail bonds company. Not only that, coincidently, we ran into and met the victims mom and sister when we were hitting shitty motels. We witnessed a mother's and sister's pain over their loss. When law enforcement treated them like absolute shit, the victims mom, sister, and half of Greeley, CO. turned to me to get the job done.
@@baddriversofthenorcalarea500 And that's only ONE story of how I performed by job duties of keeping a community safe BETTER than law enforcement. So you can miss me with your bs opinion. I don't operate on opinions. Only facts.
So if your trainees just like a brick of granite you're saying sculptor in this process
