I am retiring from the Federal Bureau of Prisons in May. Our credentials specifically say " Retired Law Enforcement". Everyone in our agency I talked to about re-qual to keep my LEOSA after retirement has said nothing about any type of LEOSA card what so ever. I was told that all I needed to do...
So, the ice storm thread had me wondering what tid bits of knowledge my fellow mountain dwellers have or items they use to make their winters in this winter wonderland a bit easier? What have you guys found that work and doesn't work ?
