Called to Serve, The Podcast

Show Notes

After being diagnosed with multiple sclerosis (MS), Sgt. Greg Linkert had to confront the uncertainty of what that meant for his future in policing. Driven by incredible resilience, he shifted his mindset and found new ways he could continue to serve through teaching, crisis negotiation and supporting homicide investigations.

In this episode of #CalledToServeThePodcast, Sgt. Linkert reflects on his time as a tactical officer and bomb technician, the realities of adapting to life with MS and his determination to focus on how he can continue making an impact, rather than what he’s lost.
