A respected and in-demand public speaker, he represented the law enforcement community at the Republican National Convention last year.Perhaps Randy’s most enduring contribution is as the founder and chairman of the board of The Wounded Blue, a 501(c)(3) organization dedicated to supporting injured and disabled law enforcement officers through support, education, assistance, and legislative advocacy.This is a powerful and inspiring conversation you won’t want to miss. Thank you to our sponsors Becker Avionics, Metro Aviation and SHOTOVER Systems.
