Retirement


While I have been a Captain in the US Army Reserve, Military Intelligence,


and I spent most of my civilian career as a private security officer, supervisor, manager, and trainer,


I have also been a volunteer Designated Level One, Reserve Police Officer, Sergeant, with the City of South Pasadena, California, for the last 28 years.  During that time I have been a use of force instructor, been the officer in charge of parades, fireworks displays, and many other public functions.  I have been a use of force instructor for patrol rifle, shotgun, handgun, baton, OC spray, and tactics.  I have arrested people, ran into burning buildings, and managed make it to retirement.


My first day on patrol.  I will miss the good men and women of South Pasadena Police Department, but it's time to say goodbye to them now.  I have retired and plan to devote more time to my wife and to my hobbies.  Bunkermeister

    May you always remember that as one door CLOSES, another one OPENS.
    (and that for every way IN, you have THREE ways OUT!)
