About Me:
Got started 3 years ago because I never got the chance to go into military or become a police officer, and I wanted to do something along those lines. Currently, I usually ride third seat or OIC, and I am now in training for DPO, followed by Aerial Operator. I absolutely love it, and wish that I had known about doing this when I got out of college, instead of years later!
