I don't disbelieve you , matey.
Down here on a job once , we invited 2 motorbike cops to have a cuppa, while they were waiting for a wide load to turn up, after we had a good look at the bikes etc etc ,, one of our blokes was enquiring into being a police diver, although he only had a pt 4, he had been accept in to Kent Police , but had a 6 month wait until entry,,,,,,,, we was on the subject on how to become a motor bike cop, the training, how long is waiting list etc etc ,,,,,, and the subject of police diving teams came up,,,,,,,, AND it was the copper that said " There aren't many divers in the police nowadays, tend to use civvies , and most of our divers have a normal police job , and dive on callouts only " or words to that effect.
Thats all,,,,,,,,,,,
