What happens if a recruit fails to maintain discipline in the White or Blue Phase?

If a recruit fails to maintain discipline during the White or Blue Phase of training, they are swiftly returned to the Red Phase. This return to the Red Phase signifies a re-evaluation of their progress and discipline. The structured training phases are designed to ensure that recruits not only acquire the necessary skills but also uphold the standards of discipline expected of them.

When a recruit is moved back to the earlier phase, it reflects the seriousness with which discipline is treated in training programs. The Red Phase typically emphasizes foundational skills and behavioral expectations, allowing recruits to address their shortcomings before advancing again. This approach reinforces the idea that discipline is a critical component of law enforcement training and readiness. By enforcing strict adherence to discipline, the training program aims to cultivate individuals who can perform under pressure and adhere to the values of the Delaware State Police.

While other options may suggest mentorship or evaluation for dismissal, they do not capture the immediate procedural response in instances of discipline failure as accurately as the return to the Red Phase does.
