Historically, even until today, the Border Patrol Agent is a lone wolf. Working alone in the harshest conditions imaginable. Fearlessly Facing dangers the general public will never understand or be aware of. As it should be. We trained to handle and survived worst case scenarios of every kind.

Except SUICIDE. Suicide is one of our deadliest enemies, more so than line of duty deaths. No amount of training will help you overcome it when it has taken a hold of you. SUICIDE can never be overcome alone. WE ARE EACH OTHER'S LAST LINE OF DEFENSE!
