Innes stood guard at the VIP entrance inside his black SUV, stationed at the United Nations Headquarters in New York City. Gripping his L119A2 rifle tightly across his lap, he spoke into his earpiece, his voice steady and authoritative.

“Delta-66 here, beginning tour of duty.”

With a husky tone, he opened the car door and stepped out, his boots meeting the pavement with a purposeful thud. He strode into the main corridor, ready to patrol as directed. The security personnel recognized his presence and nodded in acknowledgment, allowing him to pass. This was his responsibility as a member of the Uniformed Division of the U.S. Secret Service Counter Assault Team.

Today, the UN headquarters buzzed with activity, hosting a General Assembly focused on critical global issues that demanded attention from the world’s leaders.

Innes moved with practiced stealth and agility, each step deliberate and measured, reflecting the rigorous training and discipline that defined his service.
