Whats the difference between a sheriff, police officer, and sergeant?

The main difference between a police officer and a deputy sheriff is jurisdiction. The officer works for a city and the deputy has responsibility for the entire county. The sheriff's department also has additional responsibilities such as running the county jail and serving civil process papers such as subpoenas, eviction notices, and restraining orders A sergeant is a supervisor.

Both police departments and sheriff's department have them. Calling them sergeant would be most appropriate, but they are still police officers so that would be proper too The color of the uniform is a matter of department policy. Most police are blue, most sheriffs are brown but I've seen green, white, khaki and black too.

Bruce, spot on.... I would always call them Sgt, as they've earned it! =).

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
