TEXAS GAME WARDENS

TEXAS GAME WARDENS Rickel’s unit was deployed first as part of the Incident Response Assessment Team, assigned to the hardest-hit areas to report the immediate needs of that community to the State Emergency Operation Center. “We drove into Rockport, and it was still dark and raining,” says Rickel. “As the daylight started to creep up on us, so did the magnitude of the devastation. We worked all day into the night in Rockport and by then, Houston was literally drowning.” Her unit left for the Houston area the following morning. “We arrived in Fort Bend County to never-ending rain and thousands of people needing help and evacuation,” she says. Rickel says the wardens never stopped until every person was safe. “I drove home at the end of the week in awe of my partners and with a new respect for the resiliency of our people in this great state,” Rickel says. “The most important lesson learned is not about responses and tactics but that when we are hit the hardest, the police and the people come together as one.” 64 The BLUES POLICE MAGAZINE The BLUES POLICE MAGAZINE 65
