Welcome to part two and the final chapter with Dan! The guy has served our Nation, and locally, in so many capacities! Like many of my guest, he continues to serve throughout his life...

In this episode, we go back and touch on a few stories from his past before we discuss his service to the Pima County Sheriff's Department! From Patrol in the San Xavier District to Motors and search and rescue!

He's been a great guest, and I plan to see him in the future at Task Force Red gun shop here in Tucson.

Turn him up and enjoy the episode!!!

Well,

We've made it to the last episode of this series! I'm so glad, and honored, to be a part of him telling the stories that impacted him on a personal and professional level. He has been a great guest.

We chat about John's second and third shootings in this episode. We discuss the fact that these are some of the worst days, but as a leader you wish that if this day must come, it would be you so that you could take the burden off of your friend's shoulders. I have a lot of respect for John, and so many other folks I worked amongst, for having that selfless mindset of a warrior.

Please tune in, tell your friends, and let's show John some love for his last spin on the podcast!!!

Sadly, this trilogy is coming to an end and we saved some of the best stories for last! 35 years in law enforcement couldn't possibly be covered without multiple episodes!!!

I'm so grateful Jill agreed to sit in the hot seat and put up with me for hours on end to get these stories recorded for posterity! Please give her a warm welcome and buckle in because this episode was a blast from beginning to end...

Dan is the proud owner or Task Force Red Firearms and Gunsmith here in Tucson (1802 W. Grant Rd, 520-289-0878, tfrguns.com)! But prior to that, the guy has done a lot of things and been a lot of places, all in the name of service of others over self.

I'm excited for you all to hear about him growing up in Tucson and deciding the military life was how he planned to get some life experience under his belt before settling in to local law enforcement. The twists and turns along the way, but serving in pretty significant ways at each stage in his life. The trials he faced as an older man entering the Army was very interesting to me.

Show him some love, he'll be back soon because we never even made it to the point where he joined the Pima County Sheriff's Department!!! Dan has done a bunch of things in his life, and I'm glad to share them with you here on Choir Practice! Enjoy the episode!

It has been a few weeks, so I'm glad John returned to keep working his way through his 26+ year career here in Pima County.

I appreciate his time, the great stories and I also enjoy the conversations about leadership and doing the right thing, even when no one else is around. We've said it here before, "You know when you see good leadership and you definitely know when you see poor leadership."

John and I discuss some of the folks we placed on pedestals because of their leadership abilities. I've also got him scheduled for another interview in the next couple weeks and we're hoping to wrap up his career and his personal legacy.

Thank you all, enjoy the show...

We've got a theme going, here's another interview with a pilot!!!!

Like many of my guests, Steve spent many years with the Tucson Police Department, so it took a few sessions to make it through his career. I'm glad he came back and I'm excited for you all to hear about the rest of his career!

Show him some love, grab a cold drink and turn it up!!!

I am so glad James reached out and I really enjoyed his interview! He served the United States as an A-10 pilot, but as with many guests, I find myself intrigued by the pathway that led him there!!!

Deployments to the Middle East, becoming a Red Flag instructor, and he got little personal about how these deployments affected his home life and the steps he had to take to take care of his mental health along the way.

He spent some time volunteering with the Tucson Police Department and now helps the South Tucson Police Department with the Arizona Rangers. It isn't surprising, so many of my guests continue to serve others in some capacity even after their careers!

Give him a warm welcome to the Choir Practice Squad and turn it up!!!
