From The Charlotte Observer: Nalley was well known in his hometown of Hamburg, Iowa -- population 1,240 -- because he had worked at a local gas station for almost three years, pumping gas, changing oil and fixing tires. Bob Cooper, a mechanic at Hamburg Oil who spent 22 years in the Army, had told Nalley that joining the Army and gaining some experience as a military policeman could give him an edge when applying for a police job. "He didn't smoke," Cooper said. "He didn't drink. He didn't do drugs because he wanted to be a policeman. That was his way to make sure that he didn't have any troubles, so that he could get to that position in life." |
