Guest guest Posted January 1, 2004 Report Share Posted January 1, 2004 Hi, pulled this from the net, from a Dispatcher in California. Says a lot. - = A Dispatcher's Promise Another morning has approached as I think of my officer again. One of the m= any officers that swore to serve and protect, and gave up his live in the very = end. That fateful day is something that I am not allowed to forget. Itis that me= mory that reappears each time I put on my headset. And when I sit in front of the radio and dispatch my officers to a priority= call, I ailently hope and pray that I hear them clear, instead of hearing them take a fall. You see, I have always read their voices and sat back up when I sensed tens= ion or fear. But now, more than ever, it is their voice I want to continue to hear= .. Taking for granted that you will hear an officer do another traffic stop, j= ust should not be done. For it does not matter how routine the stop or call may be, it onl= y takes one. When one of our brothers or sisters is lost in the field the briefing room = will then be left with an empty space. And in our hearts it is perceived, that this brot= her or sister will never be replaced. It is my solemn vow to my officersto give my very best, and to be the voice= they want to hear in their worst times of distress.
