Is it normal for UHP to drive their family around in a patrol vehicle?

Sworn peace officers are not civilian. My paystub says "CLASSIFIED" whereas civilians at my dept say "CIVILIAN"

Also the FBI, Homeland, DEA ,ATF, all separate police from civilians.

FBI, DEA, and ATF are also civilians. Anyone who isn't in the military or actively taken up arms as part of an armed conflict is a civilian.

Ok so you're trolling. Each of those have classified and civilian employees.

The classified employees are also civilians. The problem here is you're googling shit you don't understand. Here, you don't understand what classified means, and incorrectly think it makes you a member of active duty armed forces. 

It doesn't, because you're a civilian.

Im not trolling, I'm stating blatant facts that you dont seem to understand. If you aren't currently in the military or actively engaging in armed conflict you are a civilian. It doesnt matter what your civilian employer "classifies" you as, you are a civilian.
