By Sergeant (Ret.) Robert E. Bemis with Michael J. Asken, Ph.D.What is service? Is it about giving your time to help those less fortunate? Is it about providing a commodity in a courteous manner? Does the word conjure up images of heroic actions or selfless charity? What does it really mean to serve?
Making a commitment to serve your community as a Police Officer is both personally rewarding and extremely hazardous. Forged in Scars & Stripes is the real-life account of one man's dedication to service as a core value, and how devotion to duty can have a personal cost to the individual and those he loves.
Robert "Bob" Bemis chronicles the career of a State Police Sergeant that was abruptly altered when he came to the aid of a distressed citizen. Surviving catastrophic injury, Bob tells of how love and support from family, friends, medical professionals and a fraternal bond shared between law enforcement officers gave him strength and a new purpose in his fight to return.
