#241 | Knocko Nolan | LAPD | NYPD
Everyday Protector. Knocko Nolan. A snapshot of Knocko’s life on the street with NYPD & LAPD. A look into his everyday gear and the importance of protecting his brain containment module (i.e. his noggin). The goal of the ‘Everyday Protector’ series is to provide a view of those working the streets, protecting their house, responding to emergencies….the everyday protectors amongst us.
This series is a partnership with Hard Head Veterans.
From the HHV Site: Tactical Helmets Are What We Do! Here's the deal, Hard Head Veterans is a veteran-owned and operated small business selling tactical ballistic helmets like MICH helmets to the men and women who need them the most. We are veterans of the United States’ most current conflicts, and many of us continue to serve our country today through a reserve or contracting roles. Every single member of our team is connected to the military or law enforcement, making us uniquely qualified to better understand and serve the needs of our customers.
Our company was founded on the experience that, too often, cost and administrative bureaucracy result in necessary gear not getting into the right hands until it’s too late. As a result, many individuals end up spending thousands of dollars on supplying themselves with equipment that should have been given to them in the first place. We knew that there had to be a better way.
