I served 1985 to 1993. You served too, before the badge - different uniform, same idea. You go where you are sent and you do not get to pick the call.
Game Protector Campbell gave the New York State Environmental Conservation Police 12 years.
Thank you for your service to the Albany community. Thank you for your service before it. Gone but never to be forgotten.
Rest easy, brother.
