I am a retired military member after 22 years. I now work for a private prison contractor. I am an LT with them and have been there for over 8 years. I have worked many aspects of the job to include training over 3000 staff members over the past 5 years. I am friends with a number of members of the BOP and the CDOC. Great bunch of folks. I am originally from the great state of Texas and a die hard Dallas Cowboy fan. I am very patriotic and beleive that in desperate times all americans will pull togeather. I am very close to 50 and try to function with an open mind. I never profess to knowing everything but will always be willing to express my opinion and stand up for what is right. I will always help anyone who is receptive to being taught. I can't stand know it alls or liars. I really appreciate and respect each and every officer who stands up to the plate everyday. I sleep well knowing you are on alert.
