Today’s small offering is an abbreviation from our little book ‘One In For D & D’ and its ‘D.P.T.C‘ which stands for District Police Training Centre. For many years the centre at Ryton On Dunsmore near Coventry, provided initial recruit training and continuation courses for surrounding forces. Nowadays much of the recruit training is delivered locally and styles of teaching and training have changed dramatically. (The photo is from a continuation course at Ryton in the early 70s – Mike is in the picture somewhere!)
