Fun And Morale Recognition doesn’t have to revolve around notable successes, either. Remember, you’re building cohesion as well as earned esteem. Good cops are never offended by immortalizing their memorable if not exemplary moments. In fact, they’re the ones who will laugh the loudest and enjoy it the most. Small — like 6" tall — figures may cost ten bucks, but again, the payoff is priceless. One of my favorites, commonly available, is a figure of Albert Einstein. I must have bought a dozen of these over time. Of course, Albert — his feet glued to a paperboard base reading, “NICE GOIN’, EINSTEIN!” — is for your officer who repeatedly tried to kick in a door which opened outward, toward him — and was unlocked anyway — or any action which only demonstrated use of the first ten of his IQ points. Black-clad ninja action-figures are plentiful too. They’re for your commando who scaled his way to the second story of a house with a burglar inside, crept out onto the flimsy aluminumframed plastic-sheeted greenhouse addition — and fell through, destroying it. “A Ninja, You’re NOT” is a fitting tribute. A “Hulk” action figure is for the officer who, to his own surprise as well as yours, kicked the butts of six outlaw bikers who seriously screwed up when one said something about his mother. Get a “Wonder Woman” figure for your featherweight female who executed “stick drill” on the denizens of a dockyard bar who erred in thinking the police had sent a creampuff to shut the place down. On the first one I gave on my old squad it bore the note, “When Julie was a kid she wore Wonder Woman pajamas. Now Wonder Woman wears Julie jammies. You’re our Wonder Woman!” A plastic model of a police cruiser comes cheap, and all it takes is a hot knife or soldering iron to create collision damage. For $2.99, add a crumpled model light pole or railroad signal, whichever type your hero hammered. If one of your troops was rolling “Emergency Code 8” and found the bathroom locked with disastrous results, check gag & novelty stores for a pack of “Cork-It Anti-Diarrheal” aids. The possibilities are endless. Just use your brain, heart and imagination. Good luck.
