He also served as a Class II Special Officer where he had become a familiar face in the community assigned to the bike unit, school security and patrol…He is proactive, does everything we ask of him and he has worked his tail off as a Class II Officer for a bunch of years. You are one of the guys that no doubt deserves this.”
