ITS INSANE....I feel insane for working it...I was at first surpised at what went on there but after oh a day it was just mundane. My favorite from last year we stopped two girls in a large truck. In the back of the truck they had about 4000 condoms, they called them party balloons...They were later arrested for what they were there to do from what I was told. This year was bad I was working the day the shooting in Rapid went on. I have a Friend who lives just down the road from the faces. He works for the Parks service as a ranger in the park. Lives between iron mt. road and the mt rushmore.

Ah... a LEO. Good deal. My stepdad is a retired Syracuse LEO and then retired Niagra Mohawk Nuclear Power Plant Security Supervisor. He's in his mid-80s now. Yeah that shooting was terrible for all concerned. My son knew one of the RC cops that died. The perp used a Dan Wesson 357 revolver. Killed 2 and wounded one with 5 shots fired.
As for Mt Rushmore, the former Director of Interpretation and Education was previously a LtCol (Nav Singh) I knew well at Ellsworth. He's in Hawaii now at Haleakalā National Park. Actually there's quite a few retired USAF guys working at Rushmore these days (e.g. Paul Hammett, CMSgt)

I retired from the job in 2002 and did Sturgis Bike Week with the bride. We had a good time and saw some beautiful country. We came upon a headon while riding the Spearfish Canyon Road, not good. Did all the attractions and saw all the sights. We stayed in Belle Forsch away from all the hullabaloo. Saw a lot of coppers detailed there from all over the place, and got to swap off a lot of patches. Great trip!

sdmc530,
Unfortunately I don't know Wohlman. You know Robert Rybeck? He's a neighbor and must be the tallest Trooper currently on the force! Actually we've got a lot of LEOs in the neighborhood.... couple sheriffs, RCPD, and the senior US Marshall. The later (Jerry Roe) lost his youngest son (Jared) tragically this summer just days before he was to deploy to Afganistan.
