What is your dream law enforcement job?
My last position as a LEO was chief of the marine patrol. They gave me a boat, all the gas I needed, and paid me to go out and get a sun tan 😂.

I love being a member of the SWAT team. There's nothing like it in the world.

Many of my friends have promoted up, but I'm still happy being a patrol officer. I'll continue to do it until I retire out, God willing.

It may sound cliché, but I strive to be-come chief of my own department one day. I'm willing to put in the work and deal with the politics so I can give officers the support they need and make a difference from the top down.

I'm living the dream. I'm a motor officer. I get to look cool, spend my shift riding, and work some great details with the best bunch of people I've ever worked with.

K-9 handler is my dream job. It's competitive and there aren’t that many positions at my department, but I'm determined to get there, even if I have to go to another agency to do it.
