EMPHASIS: Troop C Announces Promotion


Captain Stephen B. Ferrier, commanding officer of Troop C, Weldon Spring, announces the following Troop C promotion effective August 1, 2019.

Trooper Dallas R. Thompson was promoted to corporal and will remain in his current assignment as a pubic information and education officer for Troop C. Thompson was appointed to the Patrol on October 20, 2002, and after graduating the Patrol Academy was assigned to Troop C, Washington and St. Francois counties. On August 1, 2017, he transferred to Troop C Headquarters and was designated as a Troop C public information and education officer.

Thompson is a native of Potosi, Missouri, and graduated from Potosi High School. He attended Mineral Area College in Park Hills, Missouri, where he earned an Associate of Science in criminal justice. He and his wife, Dawn (Skiles) Thompson, have two children; Colten, and Kalie.

The only 100 percent survivable traffic crash is the one that never happens. Make sure everyone
in the vehicle is properly restrained in a seat belt or child restraint. Every day as we travel on Missouri’s roadways, we trust that every driver on the road is going to obey the speed limit, pay
attention, and drive sober. “Don’t Violate The Trust.”
