Hello everyone, it\u2019s me again reporting from St Croix, Virgin Islands. My second week here just ended and this week I observed foot, vehicle, and vessel patrols done by my FTO (Field Training Officer), Ranger Reynaldo Rivera. During the foot and vehicle patrols, I observed Ranger Rivera do traffic stops and give tickets for safety belt and expired registration as I practiced with old ticket books. I also got the opportunity to have non-law enforcement contacts during these patrols. After the patrols I practiced uploading the ticket information on IMARS. <\/div>\n\n\n\n\n

          During vessel patrols, I observed Ranger Rivera make law enforcement contacts by confirming anchoring permits from visitors of the park and ensuring no one was fishing on park property. I also got the opportunity to practice my boating skills, I learned about trailering, docking and drove about 5miles on the ocean with the guidance of my FTO from Green Cay Marina to Buck Island Reef National Monument. <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n\n
