Please watch My Christmas Eve by Bob Welsh and may this season bring safety, good health, joy and happiness to all those in law enforcement!
Bob is a retired cop and expert storyteller. He served in the U.S. Navy and had a 30 year career with… the Ohio State Highway Patrol.
I highly recommend his book: Embers From a Storytellers Mind which is also available as an audio CD. Click Here to visit Bob’s website at BobWelsh.com.

CopsAlive is written to prompt discussions within our profession about the issues of law enforcement career survival. We invite you to share your opinions, ask questions and suggest topics for us in the Comment Box that is at the bottom of this article.
At The Law Enforcement Survival Institute (LESI) we train law enforcement officers to cope with stress and manage all the toxic effects and hidden dangers of a career in law enforcement.
Our “Armor Your Self™: How to Survive a Career in Law Enforcement” on-site training program is an eight hour, hands-on, “How to” seminar that helps police officers and other law enforcement professionals armor themselves physically, mentally, emotionally and spiritually to survive their careers in police work. To learn more CLICK HERE
The concept of “True Blue Valor™” is where one law enforcement officer has to muster the courage to confront a peer who is slipping both professionally and personally and endangering themselves, their peers and the public. It takes a system of organizational support and professional leadership to support and foster the concept of courage and intervention. We will train your trainers to deliver this program to your agency.

Hello Charlie,
Thank you for your kind comments. May all the blessings of the season be with you as well!
As a young man I had a couple of problems with the law,
but as one matures you realize our society will not exist without the brave women & men of our law enforcement.
Obey the law, & you have nothing to hide.
God Bless the police officers of the world.
Hello Monique,
Thank you for your comments! I am so sorry for your loss. As a co-worker survivor and board member of the Colorado Chapter of Concerns of Police Survivors I believe I understand your loss and know that this time of the year can be very challenging. Thank you for passing along the good cheer of the Christmas Story as told by Bob Welsh. Hopefully it will bring greater understanding and perhaps a little joy for those who need it most. Merry Christmas to you as well and please accept my good wishes for a very Happy New Year in 2015.
