text: 200 vacancies in the PD. Training normally has 30 vacancies which they use to fill attrition rates , but with 200 vacancies they are far behind their allocated strength. What this translates into, no recruit classes or they are very small under 20 and they are only filling priority  uniform patrol slots. After graduation recruit is assigned to FTO-16 weeks of OJT with a rater. When they complete this training, they are assigned to 4th Platoon, Waikiki, and work foot beats alone or in pairs but because of the shortage, when they complete FTO, they go out into the patrol districts to fill motor beats(white car drivers). CRU Units(plainclothes patrol officer usually assigned to target property crimes in the patrol district) are also impacted meaning a commander will put those resources back into uniform to fill patrol beats. It is probably getting worse because lots of recruits are quitting while in recruit school, not cut out for the regimentation, new generation entering work force.
