Lacy's Story
College
I started off with a year of Engineering Drafting at O.C. Tech in Orangeburg, SC. I finally got my Assoctiates Degree at Pikes Peak Community College at Colorado Springs, Colorado while in Military. I used my GI Bill to go to USC in Aiken, where I got my degree in Sociology and Criminal Justice. I'm thinking about starting on my Masters soon to while away some of the Alaska winter downtime.

During my years, I worked as a Military Policeman, Deputy Provost Marshal, Investigator, SWAT team leader, Station Commander, Patrol Supervisor and got involved in Anti-terrorism Training, martial arts, rapelling, Weapons, Hostage Negotiations, and other fun things. I was able to get my black belt in Hapkido in Korea, trained with international SWAT teams in Europe, FBI and State groups in Colorado, Rapelling in Korea, Colorado and any other place with a vertical surface. Learned to Scuba Dive in California, and even tried some in the Caribean. Spent a lot of time in Foreign countries, enough to realize just how well we have it here in America.
