FORMER POLICE CHIEF NOW A CHIEF SALES MANAGER

"I have been a patrol officer, supervisor, motorcycle officer, a detective, and even a Chief," says Ed Southerland, who after 28 years on the force became a sales manager for CHIEF.

As if protecting the public wasn't enough of a challenge, Ed now manages 16 Law Enforcement Account Managers on CHIEF's Eugene, Oregon sales floor. Maybe dealing with city bureaucracy, the press, budget cuts and the latest crime wave wasn't so hard...

FROM OUR CUSTOMERS

"Saw the article about sending gear and "home stuff" to the unit of Marines on duty in Iraq. After spending 4+ months sailing in the Gulf providing support to the Marines, I know that it is greatly appreciated to receive care packages from the good Ol' USA, especially from complete strangers showing their support. Keep it up, CHIEF! Besides serving 18+ years of active duty in the US Navy, I am also a member of a volunteer rescue squad. I will buy my next supplies from you just because of your support of the troops!"

- Michael Holman, Virginia
