[CTC III-05]

Hello all. Im a cadet of CTC III 09 on my way home tonight. Today we honored the service of another officer that only graduated a year ago. My prayers go out to his family and fellow officers in this difficult time.

As a Cadet, it is emotional to hear about fallen officers. While my class was in the Academy, 5 Officers and 1 Lieutenant lost their lives. Each one will hit you more than the last one.

Hey fastninja...you from Santa Maria? I hail from that "All-American" city myself. I myself also had talked to Officer Martinez on a few occasions and he was a really down to earth man from what I can tell.

Rest In Peace Brother
