Eamonn Walker: Wallace Boden

Quotes 

• Wallace Boden : It's difficult for me to accept that the department I've always known is changing. That makes me somewhat of a dinosaur. But as difficult as those changes are... letting go of a lifetime's work, that isn't easy. There isn't a single man I've served with who hasn't been brought to his knees because of what he's seen on the job. Different endeavors in life change people. Only the strongest are up for that. What makes them exceptional? No matter how hard they fall, they never give up when there's something worth fighting for. When I was buried under two tons of rubble, my men risked their lives to pull me out. Even an extinct old dinosaur like me. So think about saddling them with a broken system that strips away the essentials so they can barely do their job, a broken system that might keep one of my men and women from going home to their families, I will not... allow that. And I don't give a damn. I will have no regrets. And you... are not taking my house. Not without a fight.
