The BEAST in Chicago

Some days, I get to see cool things….

Because of the work we will be doing with the US Secret Service, got to be up close and personal with the Beast.

This is the US Presidential limo that takes POTUS around.

As you can probably tell, it’s a bit more fortified than other limos….and protected from stuff.

Additionally, they brought a few support vehicles too. All the prep for the upcoming National Special Security Event (NSSE) with the 2024 Democratic National Convention here in Chicago.

Proud to work close with the US Secret Service in these upcoming events.

Congrats to Kelli on her retirement from Ohio EMA! Look at all these all-star faces in the world of PIOing.

This is a star studded cast with all these PIO faces.

My first PIO class was with Tamara McBride….and my video was done on a VHS tape.

Starting the orientation on our command vehicles.

Lots to learn as these resources are incredibly helpful for our local public safety partners.

UAC: Unified Area Command

This thing is YUGE!

All I know is that I better not scratch this thing.

I wonder if they would let me drive it.
