About Me
Photobucket I have been in LEO work for almost 8 years now. I started out in the United States Air Force as a Security Police member and was fortunate enough to become part of an elite group called the Phoenix Ravens. When I got out of the Air Force I was hired on by the Dept of Veterans Affairs Police; I honestly had not intentions of staying on with them for too long, I was only going to use them as a stepping stone. However after my year of probation was up I realized how much I enjoyed not to mention was honored to help out those who had given so much to protect the very freedom we enjoy. That being said I have been on with the VA for four years now and love it. In 2005 I was fortunate to marry my first crush and best friend. In 2006 we welcomed into our family our first son Austin who has been a blessing from our lord and savior. On February 2, 2009 we welcomed into our family our second son Bryson. I am 100% a family man; growing up family always came first and that is the way I continue my life. Jobs, friends, etc...Will come and go; but your family will always be there for you. I enjoy traveling, watching my sons grow, the beach, boats, fishing, etc...I am a hard core Seattle Seahawks fan and have been since I was two feet tall. I enjoy badge collecting and have meet and made several great officers from around the world who have become very good friends of mine. Lastly I just want to personally thank each and every one of my fellow brothers and sisters who help keep my family safe. God Bless and Stay Safe! Paul Bodenhamer
