    Hello folks...

    Funny what you come across when you are researching on the net eh?

    Saw this forum and would like to lend my support for one of the toughest and honorable professions there is...law enforcement.

    Stay safe out there, and bust a dirt bag for me.

    Thanks, man... and welcome to RP.

    There are two things I'm good in, the second is arresting people



    I'm looking for Drug/Narcotic Unit patches together with DUI/DWI unit patches for a frame in our Anti-Drug-Team bureau

    Also looking for Massachusetts Police and US Capitol City PD patches now!

    Thanks folks.

    "So, are you a GI? Branch? ...you know, tell us a little about yourself."

    Aye.

    16 years active army and still kicking.

    11 years in 3/75 Ranger, 2 in 2/75 Ranger, a tour in Italy with the 173rd, about a year or so as an R.I. in Florida, and I am currently in a dirty nasty leg unit in TX.

    Did the Panama gig in 89' as a pup, 3 Afghan trips, and am currently prepping for a trip to sunny Iraq.

    My hobbies are military history, training, women named Mandy, and firearms.

    I thought about going the law enforcement route after my first enlistment, however, I soon realized that I don't have the composure for it...I would beat people down in a heartbeat, lay down suppressive fire in order to manuever, and generally make a very, very, very bad law enforcement officer.

    My hats off to you folks for being able to perform a duty that is honorable, very tough, important, and one I could never do.
