Abstract

The physical training of recruits is often conducted by specialized drill instructors (DIs). Recruit injury studies are common, but there has been less analysis of
injuries and injury rates specific to the DI staff. Specialized DI Staff staff are needed to properly train high volumes of recruits and are themselves a high value asset costing approximately $500,000 USD to train.
The aim of this study was to profile injuries sustained by DIs responsible for raining recruits at one of the largest law enforcement academies in the United States (US).
