Patrol is considered the backbone of policing. Uniformed patrol are the guys and gals answering the calls and gathering street info. Often when detectives need information on something, they will go to the officers that patrol the area and use them for info.

∙ 12y agoI think you mean "why are patrol officers called the backbone of the police department?" Without patrol officers to go out and answer calls for service and to arrest people, none of the other parts of the police department would have any value or effectiveness. Detectives can't always go out and dig up crime on their own. Crime Scene investigators are worthless if they don't know where the crime scenes are. Patrol officers do the most and hardest work in the police deparment. They also have the most contact with the citizens in the community.
