When <a href="https://www.scoopnest.com/s/mick%20cummins">Mick Cummins</a> joined the police force in <a href="https://www.scoopnest.com/s/december">December</a> 1976 at 19, he could have never imagined where it might take him; but he was determined to never stop learning. His time with Victoria Police took him to all corners of the world - to Iraq, across parts of Europe, country NSW, and eventually led him to the Retired Peer Support Program. What Mick helped create would become the foundation of everything PVV is today, and we couldn't be more thankful for him.&nbsp;

Enter the Plodcast: a new series by Police Veterans Victoria that dives deep into the lives of police veterans, their families and supporters; lives of undercover work, drug busts, robberies, shootings, deaths and the struggles that eventually came as a result of being in the job.

Hosted by PVV's Carla Deale, the Plodcast is a conversation about much more than policing.
