For those of you who may not know, this is my little brother. He is taller than me and on occasion is tougher than me... but, he'll always be my little brother. He is currently about to embark on the journey of a lifetime through the CHP academy. The above picture shows his first explorer graduation, where he got a taste of what life would be like at the academy. Since this picture, my brother took on the state of California in an annual competition to test the capability of his post (as well as the 30+ other CHP posts in CA) in various scenarios (like a high speed chase), he and his squad took first place! When he's not being the face of the CHP, he's busy tinkering and being goofy (Disney pun intended) as can be. He is perhaps one of the brightest lights in my life and he is truly a common day hero.
