Kicking Off the Summer Season Safely ArchiveThis past Memorial Day weekend, we kicked off the 100 Days of Summer safety campaign. From now through Labor Day, this safety campaign is intended to remind us that we cannot afford to lose focus on safety, whether we are on or off duty. Warm months bring many opportunities for family fun, but that fun can quickly turn to tragedy if safety is not our number one priority.
Command Sgt. Maj. RICHARD D. Jessup
