Reflections for Officer John A. Vickers

9/3/03
I remember John Vickers as one of my first "unofficial" Field Training Officers when I was a Reserve Officer for the El Centro Police Dept. in 1976. That is where I started my law enforcement career. This year I celebrate 22 years as a Cody Police Officer, 10 years as Chief. I often remember John for his sense of humor and his patience in working with a "rookie
reserve officer." He got me off to a good solid start in law enforcement, and I learned a lot of good habits by watching him.
Thanks John !
