GREEN BAY, WI (WTAQ) – Green Bay Police Officer Aaron Walker was honored on Monday by The Green Bay Rotary Club for his excellence in Public Safety.
Walker was nominated by other Green Bay officers for his commitment to the community, such as his tendency to have lunch with students at Washington Middle School when he’s not training.
“There’s some great kids out here and there’s some great minds,” he says. “One day some of them might wear this uniform and they can dictate and they can kind of control how this city works.”
Walker served in the U.S. Army for six years, prior to his law enforcement career. He joined the Green Bay Police Department in April of 2015 and was selected as a “field training officer.”
Officer Walker was described by Night Shift Capt. Todd LePine as “an individual who does the right thing for the right reasons, has qualities which make him an unselfish person and a tremendous employee.”
The award Officer Walker received is to recognize those who exemplify the Rotary motto of “Service Above Self.”
In his spare time Officer Walker also coaches youth football.
