And I did become a police officer straight out of college before I joined the Border Patrol, but I knew, I had no doubt in my mind, there's one thing I wanted to do, and that's be a law enforcement officer. Why did you... Where'd you become a police officer? West Carthage. West Carthage. You stayed at home. Just like my dad and grandfather, we served the local community.
