Making a Difference the Right Way

<p>I was born to be a trooper I just wasn't old enough at the time. </p><p> </p><p>- Lieutenant (Ret.) Elwood E. Stacy 2002.</p><p> </p><p class=ql-align-justify>Truer words were never spoken. That is exactly what being a Maryland State Trooper was for me and so many others. In literally a lifetime of service in law enforcement I had the honor of working alongside many men and women whose dedication to our oath is a story worth telling. From my time as a uniformed trooper to working undercover to becoming the third highest executive officer in the administration I had the best of all possible worlds and opportunities. Whether it was overcoming obstacles just to wear our uniform immersing myself in a criminal culture to facilitate an investigation or dealing with politics at the highest level this is a state trooper's story.</p>
