BEHIND AND BEYOND THE BADGE - Volume III by Donna Brown

BEHIND AND BEYOND THE BADGE - Volume III by Donna Brown

There is so much more to a police officer's badge, to any badge that all first responders wear. But that's what the world sees-a badge. What's behind and beyond that badge is what people need to know-the person.

In>BEHIND AND BEYOND THE BADGE, Volume I, award-winning author Donna Brown takes you to those places that few see. First responders have opened their hearts and shared what it's truly like to do their jobs, their favorite parts of the job, and their toughest, career-defining moments, and the impact it has on their families. They are human just like you, and each faces all that life has to offer, good and bad.

Included are law enforcement officers, firefighters, EMS personnel, 911 dispatchers, crime scene/forensic technicians, and victim advocates. All what Donna Brown calls her Village of First Responders.

This series is perfect for those who are thinking about becoming a first responder, those who have family or friends who are first responders, those who want to know more and for those who are suspect of the law enforcement profession. This book offers a unique and thought provoking perspective from those who do the job.

Brown, Donna: - Donna Brown began her twenty- six-year career in law enforcement when women were still relatively new to the profession. Like most new police officers, Donna began her career working the streets answering calls for service. She then started training new recruits and turned that passion into teaching department wide, at the academy, and to community groups. When she was promoted to sergeant, she remained on the streets and continued training new recruits. Career progression moved Donna to the Criminal Investigation Division where she spent fifteen years, ten years supervising the Homicide Unit. Donna received the Tallahassee Police Department'saward for bravery and the inaugural Commander and Chief's Award for Excellence, which at that time was the department's award for Officer of the Year. She was also recognized for her part with the Tallahassee Police Department's team that responded to South Florida days after Hurricane Andrew devastated that area. Donna knows that there is so much more behind the badge that people don't realize or understand. She had spent much of her career speaking to citizen groups in hope of educating and broadening minds about law enforcement. She grew up in Titusville, Florida, when the space industry was flourishing. Return trips are not as frequent as she'd like, but it's a place that she will always consider home. After graduating from Astronaut High School, she moved to Tallahassee, Florida, obtaining her bachelor of science degree from Florida State University in 1979. She's a proud Seminole! Donna is married, and together, they enjoy spending time with their four-legged fur babies, friends, and family, as well as playing golf.
