Civil servants such as those in the medical field, fire fighters, and the police force are employed to complete their duty towards the public. But how many times do they get told that they are doing an awesome job? One such policeman was in utter disbelief when the school children that he had been protecting, gave him a “tribute” to remember!
As a police officer, Mitch Brouillette is detailed oriented and keeps an eye out for suspicious activity around the campus—however, in this one instance of “ambush”, he had no inkling of what was going to happen and was totally caught by surprise.
In fact, Brouillette was being awarded a job well-done by “Dude. Be Nice campaign”, which helps to “inspire people to build a positive community by recognizing a person or group in a meaningful way.”
The event was headed by Heritage High’s leadership team to honor Brouillette, the Brentwood school’s resource officer.
“I was more than surprised–more like overwhelmed,” Brouillette said. “It was so much to take in at the moment.”
