For 24 years, Daniel Dluzneski's job required him to be in the White House and attend events with the President--often with a large, very well-trained dog: Daniel was a lieutenant in the U.S. Secret Service. In this episode he shares behind-the-scenes stories from that position--what it was like to be in the White House on September 11, 2001; his "favorite" President to serve; and what happened when he was giving a tour of rarely-visited areas of the White House and they had an unexpected encounter with President Clinton. After leaving the Secret Service, Daniel began using his skillset to help school systems better prepare for emergency situations, like active shooters or bomb threats. He gives us tips and thoughts on how teachers and students can stay safe: being prepared is better than being scared.
