“Eyes are windows into the soul”

FORMER DALLAS PD MOUNTED/SWAT JT CURTIS

Raised by a single mom in Kirbyville Texas he joined Dallas Police Department in 1984 at 20 years old. He spent 6 years in the Mounted Unit and finished up 26 years in Swat.
This SWAT legend's leadership and mentor skills help mold several young officers become incredible officers and SWAT operators.  He is the epitome of being a true professional and his meticulous attention to detail was infectious.
His off duty activities are most interesting as he turned pro in rodeo bare back competition and maintained a 12 year win streak at the Texas Peace Officer Association bare back competition and was inducted into the Cowboys of Color Hall of Fame.
Jt is a true "cop's cop" and a real cowboy
