Pretty sure that there are better ways to learn more about becoming a law enforcement officer.
Hope your Saturday is going well.
Be careful out there.
Meeting your local police department

PIO-ing Cleveland’s Public Square during #PrideInTheCLE #ClevelandPride
Yesterday, I supported Cleveland Police on the #PrideInTheCLE #ClevelandPride event in Public Square.
Much different from the Republican National Convention.
Lots of families out and about (and enjoying) the new cool fountain in downtown Cleveland.
Everyone was having a great time.
Lots of speculation and talk about public safety not being around to support the LGBT community – all totally false. Public Safety will be there to support any community.
Trust me, lots of public safety was on hand to support our entire community.
Cleveland Police Bomb Squad and K9 teams…
Cleveland EMS…
..even the Cleveland Police bike patrol was out supporting the day’s events.
Lots of areas to cover.
Partnerships with the Cuyahoga County Sheriff’s Department and Cleveland Police Department are key in providing safety for everyone who attended the event.
It was a relatively hot day so I am glad that many of the participants dressed appropriately for the event.
Some not so much.
Fun entertainment and friendly people staying cool out in Public Square.
While waiting around, we had some time for a quick PIO selfie…
Also had time for a few interviews with local media.
Also happy to run into a long time good friend Mark Zinni who is the anchor for the Channel 3 Eyewitness News in Hartford, Connecticut. Great to see him again.
Thanks for the picture Zinni!
Can’t wait to see him again in Cleveland.
While out there, we even made a few new peeps into Junior Police Officers.
Thanks Ken!
We were fortunate enough to do a few live interviews on Periscope from Public Square.
We highlighted the event and gave a status report of the operations using Periscope.
Ever wonder what it’s like to hang with onscene PIOs? Here’s a behind the scenes shot of us doing some live interviews on Periscope.
Thanks for the action shot Zinni!
Trust me, it’s harder than it looks.
Overall, it was great to see so many people out on a Saturday afternoon in Cleveland.
As always, I had a great time working the PIO magic with Jen!
We make a pretty good team huh?
Hope everyone stayed dry while the rain hit.
Great safe event everyone!
Have a great weekend!
Don’t worry, I didn’t preflight this aircraft #NatlPrep

Saturday shakas on the flight line.
Make sure your agencies are safe. Follow protocols and abide by all safety minimums.
Don’t wait. Communicate. Make your emergency plan today.
Enjoying National Preparedness month so far?
Bioterrorism discussion at IIT in Chicago
This past weekend, I was invited to swing by the Illinois Institute of Technology Graduate School in downtown Chicago.
Spirited discussion included bioterrorism, social media data/intelligence, explosives, nuc/rad release, mass panic/evacuation, and of course drone operations for large events.
Participants included many members of Chicago Police’s upper administration and leadership from Chicago Police specialty teams.
They asked Dr. Fagel if I was a Special Agent kinda guy. Clearly, my Aloha shirt on a Saturday really messed things up.
Overall, it was a great day to be in downtown Chicago.
Looking forward to sharing some SME knowledge with the graduate students this fall.
Saturday and Sunday = My nose in books!
Spent the day reviewing and researching.
Digging into my C&GSF instructor books, all my position specific books as well as referencing my ICS-300 and ICS-400 manuals.
And for good measure, I also referenced my OSC, PSC, LSC, and LO instructor books too.
Yeah I know…geekish.
Doc Lumpkins would be proud (I think)
Glorious weekend indeed.
