“I can say that National City Police Explorer Post 2859 gave me the opportunity of a life time.  If it wasn’t for the kind, caring and genuine advisors I had, I probably would not have become a Police Officer ...  Now as an advisor, I must say it is an honor.  It’s an Honor because some of our kids would be lost without our program.  It’s an honor to be a part of these kid’s lives and to watch them grow and succeed.  Our kids donate thousands of hours a year to our community.  Our Explorers are willing and able to take on any task we ask of them. They do it professionally and with a smile on their faces.  It is because of everyone involved in BSA, Learning for Life, and all the advisors that our programs (county wide) are so successful.”

“In my eighteen years of being involved as the Explorer Adviser of La Mesa Fire, I have lost tract of the number of individuals that have passes through our doors, and are now employed as career firefighters.  The most common sentiment from those that keep in touch, those I see on strike teams, or those employed in the county, is how unaware they were of the  programs value while they were in it.  Looking back, they recognize their "first date", with the fire service and all that comes with it....was right here!”

            “I must say that having an Explorer Post at our department is worth its weight in gold.  These young men and women come in very handy in times of emergency such as the recent fire storm and provide a great support function to our fire department.  On top of that, all of the Explorers handle themselves in a professional manner at all times. . .
I would like to thank the Boy Scouts of America (San Diego Unit) for their “Learning for Life Program” which provides this opportunity to young men and women.  The experience they gain is priceless.”

Wow, we had an amazing field trip. The instructor was very knowledgeable and polite. The students wish they were all 18 years old so they can work. (Following a field trip to the Sheetmetal Union Training Facility)
