WET WORK

  The Collier County Sheriff's Office has a huge expanse of water to patrol and respond to rescue calls. A Marine Unit has been a longtime wing of the agency. 
 The photo to the right shows Sheriff Aubrey Rogers, and Collier County's second Marine Deputy Grady Johnson. With his back to the camera in marina owner Tommy Turner.
 Below, is Deputy Bert Morris. Bert was Sheriff Doug Hendry's first Marine Deputy. Bert was a veteran member of the agency. His last assignment was the Commander of the Marco Island Sub-Station.
There is an excellent article about Bert, written by Tom Smith, on the agency's Alumni site.    http://www.ccsoalumni.org/
