ACONCURRENT RESOLUTION

TO CONGRATULATE CAPTAIN ROBERT E. CARR OF THE HORRY COUNTY POLICE DEPARTMENT ON HIS RECENTPROMOTION AND TO THANK HIM FOR HIS MANY YEARS OF OUTSTANDING SERVICE TO THE PEOPLE OF HORRY COUNTY.

Whereas, the South Carolina General Assembly is pleased to learn that Captain Robert E. Carr of the Horry County Police Department was promoted to the rank of captain on March 23, 2013; and

Whereas, Captain Carr, a native of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, knew his calling was to become a police officer from the time he was a child. His dream was realized in September 1970 when he was hired by the Philadelphia Police Department, where he served on many assignments, including the security detail for Mayor Frank Rizzo; and

Whereas, in 1997, he came to Horry County, and in 1998 his police career began again when he was hired by the Horry County Police Department and assigned to the Community Oriented Policing Enforcement Team in the Racepath area of Myrtle Beach; and

Whereas, in 2000, Robert Carr was promoted to the rank of detective and served with both the Property Crimes Unit and Violent Crimes. Four years later, he was promoted to sergeant and worked as supervisor for the school resource officers. From 2002 until 2007, he was a member of the Hostage Negotiations Team, one of his most rewarding assignments; and

Whereas, he was given the job of public information officer in 2005 and remained in that post until 2008, when he was promoted to lieutenant. As a lieutenant, his first job was as a watch commander, and in 2010 he moved to the North Precinct and took up his duties as deputy precinct commander. After working in the North Precinct for two and a half years, he was promoted to captain, his present rank; and

Whereas, one of the greatest enjoyments of this fifteenyear veteran of the Horry County Police Department is going out to the public to talk about neighborhood watches and meeting and greeting the citizens he serves; and

Whereas, grateful for his dedication and years of fine service, the General Assembly takes great pleasure in saluting Captain Robert E. Carr on hiswelldeserved promotion, and the members wish him much continued success in the years to come. Now, therefore,

Be it resolved by the House of Representatives, the Senate concurring:

That the members of the South Carolina General Assembly, by this resolution, congratulate Captain Robert E. Carr of the Horry County Police Department on hisrecent promotion and thank him for his many years of outstanding service to the people of Horry County.

Be it further resolved that a copy of this resolution be provided to Captain Robert E. Carr.
