The Above Security Officers;
I want to take this opportunity to commend all of you as a unit, on a job well done. Due
to your efforts, professionalism, training and high regard for safety this unit prevented a
serious situation from turning into a major catastrophe. Everyone worked as a team which
made the difference. Security was the first to notice the fire and respond to China Town
in the food court.
Your training in fire response and management was excellent. A special note to your
Dispatchers Pac and Gabaud, who remained cool calm and collected with the radio
traffic, phone calls, documentation, and the Palm Beach Gardens Fire response.
You all conducted yourselves in a professional manner. You all are an asset to the
Gardens team and it is very much appreciated. The Forbes Company management and the
security management team appreciate your dedication.
Continue to display the highest level of professionalism, always be courteous, and caring
of others. I want to thank you all so much for a job well done. Please wear the
Meritorious Unit Pin proudly. I have attached a memo from Lt Frink who is proud of all
of you, as is your shift commander Reggie Ferrera and Russ Temple.
