Summary

This episode is dedicated to one of my best friends, Sgt. Mitch Blocher of the Indiana State Police. Mitch was diagnosed with a brain tumor earlier this year and everyone was optimistic that it was treatable. I found out yesterday that treatment has been ineffective and now his time here is nearing an end.

This episode is my own journal entry to preserve in time. It chronicles my journey with Mitch and what my relationship with him means to me. I tell some old war stories and explain how we always seemed to work out a way to be working together.

It's also my way of introducing you to The Greatest Cop I Ever Knew. I'll probably go back and listen to this once a year if I had to guess.
