You were my first Journeyman and taught me alot. I have the most highest respects for you Sir.
Loved your mini museum and how you had our Horse Patrol Unit photo above your bar. Especially since I'm in it. Lol.
Loved hearing your Border Patrol stories and your words of wisdom that helped me in my career.
