Contact Information

NRTI as we knew it is no more, and I don't know what will happen in the future. Technically, I'm still employed by the College, though am enjoying a paid hiatus, and working on everything I couldn't work on when I was spending 70 hours a week running the Program, like cleaning up from the tornado that hit, what, 7 years ago now? I'm also commissioned with a nearby county agency, actually answering to one of the more popular instructors, so I'm still trying to keep my hand in.

I'll continue to post information and news from grads and friends, and also want to keep current with LE news and references.

My College phone and e-mail are pretty much out of service, so I'll be setting up yet another account , so we can stay in touch.

Major Drug Seizure Made During Special Operations Training

Major Drug Seizure Made During Special Operations Training

Rangers attending the 17th session of the National Park Service’s special operations course were able to utilize their training during a two day deployment to Organ Pipe Cactus NM earlier this month. On April 2nd, they seized over 600 pounds of marijuana and arrested seven people within the park. With the assistance of the NPS special agent assigned to the border parks, felony charges were filed in federal court against the seven Mexican nationals. The two week session included over 120 hours of leadership, team building, tactical tracking and firearms applications and focused on resource protection skills. This year’s course was funded by Intermountain Region and included border park rangers and IMR SETT team members. Upon graduation, rangers returned to their parks equipped with the skills to undertake complex and potentially hazardous field operations while working with partner agencies to accomplish the NPS mission.
