Reflections for Constable Brian David Bachmann
Constable Bachmann not only served as a Brazos Valley law enforcement professional for over 13 years, his commitment, service and support as a guest instructor for the Central Texas Police Academy demonstrated his desire that our communities be policed by caring, compassionate and professional officers. Brian and his dedicated spirit will be sorely missed by the entire police academy staff. We shall never forget”.

Thank you to you, your family and the Brazos County Constable's Office - Precinct 1. Our country is a little less safe without you. Rest in Peace Brother.

The Policeman stood and faced his God,
Which must always come to pass.
He hoped his shoes were shining as brightly as his brass.
"Step forward now, officer. How shall I deal with You?
Have you always turned the other cheek?
To my Church have you been true?"
The officer squared his shoulders and said,
"No, Lord, I guess I ain't.
Cause those of us who carry badges can't always be a saint.
But I never took a penny that wasn't mine to keep,
Though I worked a lot of overtime when the bills just got too steep.
And I never passed a cry for help, though at times I shook with fear.
And sometimes, God forgive me, I wept unmanly tears.
I know I don't deserve a place among the people here.
They never wanted me around except to calm their fear.
If you've a place for me here, Lord, it needn't be so grand.
I've never expected or had too much.
But if you don't, I'll understand."
There was silence all around the throne where the saints had often trod.
As the officer waited quietly for the answer of his God.
"Step forward now, Officer, you've borne your burdens well.
Come walk a beat on Heaven's Streets. You've done your time in Hell."

Rest in peace my brother
