The Talking Badge: Battle Scars Of Police Work

The Talking Badge is a unique memoir featuring a collection of true stories, fictionalized as necessary, by a cop who worked the streets for 30 years-twenty as a K-9 and bomb squad officer. Self-described "crazy cop" Mike Garner tells you what it's like to serve and protect the public. You will never look at a cop on the street the same way after reading The Talking Badge. Learn why police officers do what they do and see why even the simplest traffic stop can become a life-or-death moment. Learn through a cop's eye view why so many police officers are at risk of stress-related illnesses, divorce, alcoholism, and suicide. Mike spent the last years of his career as a gifted instructor teaching classes about stress management in law enforcement. His desire to help young officers cope with the stress of their careers as well as the critical need to protect their mental health was a prime motivator for writing this book.
