It was a special treat for us to host Aiden Marshall and his team of four detectives on this “chicken day” and hear them speak about their duties in the Bomb Squad of Citrus County. Aiden, who is an honorary member of our club, explained how the team goes through intensive 6-week training under guidance by the FBI. The squad also trains regularly with Tampa PD as part of a regional team, serving a number of counties. All funding for the team is provided by the Department of Homeland Security, so citizens are not burdened by the high cost of equipment. The detectives proudly showed off their equipment and demonstrated how robots are used to remove ordinance or explosive devices. We are proud to have Aiden as part of our Rotary Club and are thankful that he is also overseeing security at our upcoming Stone Crab Jam.
