Yes, and some might be surprised to know how many recruits underestimate the process and resign. My wife works for the State Police at the academy, she often comes home saying they lost another one. It's intentionally grueling to see who can and cannot make it. I can respect the ones that come to the conclusion on their own that its not for them and resign...that's a job that definitely isn't for everyone. Few here don't make the FTO phase though, some get extended and sent back to the academy for remedial training, but if they get through the academy most finish the field training and succeed.
