During Week 15 of the DNR Conservation Officer Training Academy, recruits completed water safety training, including some time in an ice bath. "This training teaches the recruit how his or her body will respond if they fall through the ice into the water," said DNR Recruit School Commander Sgt. Jay Person. "We work on a lot of frozen surfaces, and there is always a risk of falling through.
