Throwback Thursday briefing at the DNSO.

#GiveUsACaption

"I would be remiss if I didn’t first mention the loved ones of these officers- the spouses, the children, the mentors, the friends and the family that provide support so that these men and women may have a shelter to return to. I want to thank these people with upmost sincerity.

I say thank you for adjusting you birthdays and holidays so we can be there when the gifts are opened. I say thank you for allowing us to leave at a moment’s notice while making sure we have equipment and food to eat. I say thank you for making our home time and off duty time as peaceful as possible, so that we may also know peace. I say thank you for washing the blood from our uniforms and not demanding the details. I say thank you for consistently, but in your own way, simply asking if we are okay. I say thank you for waking us up when the dreams get too bad. I say thank you for making us get out of the house. I say thank you for worrying about our physical and mental health when we won’t. I say thank you for believing you are not second to this job even though sometimes it must feel that way. I say thank you because without you doing what you do, there is no way we could do what we do.

And this is a calling."
